Star Wars: Every Lightsaber Duel Ranked Worst To Best

10. Yoda Vs Count Dooku - Attack Of The Clones

It was a long time coming, but in Attack of the Clones fans finally got the opportunity to see Yoda in action. Always wise, thoughtful and patient, his violent confrontation with his fallen padawan is absolutely brilliant.

The reason it's so good is because it comes off the heels of surprisingly easy defeat of Obi-Wan and Anakin, making the Sith Lord appear close to unbeatable. But, of course, this is Yoda we're talking about, who gets the chance to show off just how powerful he is, deflecting Dooku's Force-lightning with his own hands before bouncing around and showing Dooku that he still has a lot to learn.

The duel is quick and relentless, and though it ends a tad too soon, it's still a great showcase for the little green Jedi's skills and the compassion he has for his allies.
