So lets have everyone be able to fight the Jedi with lightsabers "because its awesome" then..
Lightsaber technique a combination of sword fighting and applying use of the Force. A highly trained non-Force user shouldn't be able to duel the Jedi in such a manner because they don't have the abilities that a Jedi does.
What would be cool to me is if we saw a lightsaber duel between Aurra Sing and someone, or Grievous or Asajj or Dooku - the characters that actually are experts with lightsabers.
We almost never see them dueling any Jedi, instead we get Jedi vs Hondo, Pre Vizsla and now Bane.
Next we'll have Ziro vs Obi-Wan in a lightsaber duel.
Take the fight between Obi-Wan and the unnamed Death Watch Mandalorian from last season, that worked for me because he nullified Obi-Wan's lightsaber, though still eventually fell to Obi-Wan's skills.
If that Mando had beaten Obi-Wan I would have been fine with it because he would have done so using his own skill set, abilities and tricks that Obi-Wan doesn't have.
I'd just like to see TCW creative team be creative while being true to the established universe. Sure highly trained individuals can beat the Jedi, but they shouldn't be able to do it by randomly picking up a lightsaber and cutting down a Jedi with it.
