This is a lovely guide. I think I would have to start using some of it in the future! Thank you for sharing such a thing!

Unfortunately, 90% of these moves require a complete retard for an opponent in order to work.
Actually, nevermind. These could prove quite useful around here!

All of the "turn off" styles would work if you were extremely skilled in telekinesis and had three or so sabers at your disposal to switch between during these for the instance of not having a complete karking moron for an opponent. (Though there are modifications to these that actually would work, such as cutting an opponents hands off by letting up on a saber lock while also pushing downwards/towards their wrists while using force speed.)

Video was hilarious. Images were mostly trakata.

They work against combatants that fight with ferocity -- "Passionate" Sith, for example. Of course, the deceptive nature of Trakata makes it a no-no for Lightside-use.Darth Sinna said:
Like Fabula said, all of the "turn-off" styles are just Trakata. They're only really considered "alternative" because neither the light nor dark side can philosophically reconcile its use, so you really don't see it very often.

Mostly Jedi don't do the deception thing (and admit to it), and Sith are normally too "mindless berserker" to think about detailed subterfuge in the middle of a rage. That's not to say that those people can't use it. Anyone can. It's just uncommon. Trakata is a recognized form with its own merits and demerits, just like the others.

I have always preferred [member="Fabula Cavataio"]'s alternative lightsaber form. "Is it moving?..... Punch it..... Still alive? Punch it again." Best form ever.

Now, my first post was just a joke really. However, I find the following interesting:Fabula Cavataio said:
How "recognised" a form is this really? Is it an off-hand mention in one source book that's been tied to a couple of instances of Jedi on books switching off their blades, or is it more than that?

Enough for just more than a stub.Raziel said:
It's probably really hard to gauge, as most of its 'canon' coverage would likely occur in prose (where the action scenes likely aren't long enough to establish such a style pattern) or comics (where time is too subjective to actually convey what's really going on, and, again, the battle scenes are less complex)
I don't know. My character uses a variation of it, as did his "Master" back at that one place. I always saw it as the weird cousin to that Samurai/Ronin style where they sheathe the blade between swings and Anton Chigurh of No Country for Old Men's cattlegun.
