Contrary to popular belief, one must actually have the LOW ground in order for spin attacks to succeed, as seen during Sheev's arrest, however Grievous has the obvious high ground here. Therefore Obi Wan baited Grievous into using an attack that he knew would fail.

Grievous failed to use a combination of colors that would induce an epileptic seizure

>>64476569
he was a secessionist and thus by definition lacked loyalty

What about in Anakin's case where there was NO ground?

Lower centre of gravity than the CIS mothership

It was a good trick, he stopped doing it for no reason and he died

How the fuck did Grievous manage to lose that fight anyway?

He has four fucking arms with a lightsaber in each hand! Obi-Wan is one guy with ONE LIGHTSABER. I know Obi-Wan's a Jedi. I know he has precognitive senses and always feels where Grievous is about to swing his lightsabers. None of that should matter though. He has FOUR FUCKING LIGHTSABERS! He can attack in four different directions at the same time. If he wanted to, he could defend in two different directions while attacking in two completely different directions. He could even defend in one direction while attacking in THREE OTHERS! Obi-Wan can only attack and defend in one direction at a time, and he can't even attack and defend simultaneously. While Obi-Wan's attacking, he can not also be defending himself.

How can Grievous fight somebody who has only has one lightsaber, in close quarters, and not fucking murder him? This is beyond retarded.

it's even more unbelievable if you compare RotS Grievous with Genndy-Wars Grievous

Obi1 outsmarts him, that's how.

It wasn't a good trick.

Episode I: they force push battle droids all over the place

Why didn't he force push Grevious off a cliff?
>>
>>64478422
I guess Grievous is a complete fucking moron then. I've seen the fight and it seems like Grievous never once takes advantage of the fact that he has four lightsabers. Instead, he repeatedly does wide slashes in one direction with all four lightsabers, which is the stupidest thing ever because four lightsabers hitting him in one direction won't be any more effective than one lightsaber hitting him in one direction. One lightsaber will cut straight through him. What are the other three supposed to do?

This fight should be simple:
>Swing one lightsaber at Obi-Wan
>Obi-Wan blocks
>Swing three other lightsabers at him in three completely different directions while he's blocking
>Any one of them hits Obi-Wan and kills him
There! The end! It should have been that simple!

>>64478506
Why not force crush everyone's eyeballs? It would be over without the need to find high ground
>>
>>64478506
I was going to ask something like this. What is stopping Obi Wan to use the force against Grievious?
