Star Wars: The Clone Wars had seven seasons worth of dazzling action scenes and lightsaber duels, but some were better than others. The Clone Wars follows Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano on many adventures during the Clone Wars. The show takes place between the events of Star Wars Episode II—Attack of the Clones and leads directly into and overlaps in season seven with Star Wars Episode III—Revenge of the Sith.
With so many seasons, characters, and duels, it can be overwhelming trying to remember some of the best and worst ones. For many, there are stand-out arcs or characters that instantly make an episode better. Some of these duels are interesting as they are not all Sith versus Jedi; often the most interesting lightsaber duels happen when there is a blurring of lines. Whether that be an unexpected team-up, or allies turning against one another, The Clone Wars did not shy away from creating interesting duels that informed their character’s arcs.
