Star Wars: 8 Best Ahsoka Tano Fights To Get You Hyped For Her Mandalorian Debut
1. Ahsoka Vs. Darth Maul - The Clone Wars: Season 7, Episode 10
It is important to mention the arc of Ahsoka's character in the last two episodes of The Clone Wars. The writing, animation and performance are all exquisite and Ahsoka shines the brightest of all. But when it comes to an adrenaline-pumping fight scene, none can top her duel with Darth Maul in episode ten.
This is the pinnacle of the artists and creatives that brought The Clone Wars back from the brink to finish the series. Maul's character is as compelling as Ahsoka's, with both parties uneasy as they start to sense the coming of the Empire and the end of the Jedi.
The dialogue that precedes the fight sets the scene perfectly, with Ahsoka pushed to engage Maul after he reveals the truth about Anakin's path, a truth that Ahsoka refuses to believe. When the fighting starts, it is some of the best lightsaber action fans will ever see, which is especially impressive considering it doesn't have the mass appeal of live-action.
Maul, the leader of Mandalore and the Sith that took on both Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, killing the latter, tastes the full, exhilarating ability of Ahsoka Tano. Ahsoka matches the Sith with perfect parrying and counter-attacking leaving the entire scene feeling like a majestical death-dance with two of the galaxy's most accomplished fighters.
On the cusp of Order 66 and the end of The Clone Wars, this final lightsaber duel is the absolute crowning jewel of the series, all thanks to Ahsoka Tano.
