The Lenses attached to Sarad's eyes, like contacts and integrated into his armor fed him a constant stream of data which was the displayed holographically. It synchronized with his field of vision ensuring he had the most up to date information available at the time. Not something Sarad used extensively however in a melee of this size it proved helpful.
The Telekinesis he'd employed had moved
Alessandra Io
into the path of the electrical discharge created by
S0-T0
yet Sarad felt nothing from the force. It was as though both of them were there and yet not. Their connection to the force altogether absent though not in the sense that they were dead to it or a wound in the tapestry created by it.
When Alessandra's sonic attack occurred it might have caught Sarad completely had she targetted him initially.
The Sonic Blast would be picked up immediately by the sensors in his armor feeding information back to the lenses that Sarad wore. As micro computers and tech went the information was fed to him almost instantly. It would identify the initial blast that Alessandra had targeted S0-T0 with however her head snapped towards him next, a half second later and so he already knew what was coming.
Knowing is one thing, avoiding another though. Sonic weapons seemed to be making more of a comeback in the galaxy, they created an almost transparent blast however as some noted in the past their was some atmospheric distortion that often accompanied them.
Already aware of what was happening Sarad, who had been positioning himself defensively pressed off his right foot so that he could lunge aside rather than charge at Alessandra. He'd mostly put himself out of the way of her attack but as already indicated sonics were a funny thing. He'd still be clipped, somewhere on the side and flung to the durasteel floor of the arena where he landed with a 'thud'.
Prone on his stomach his opponents might think Sarad at a disadvantage, his side certainly thought he was at one. It was hard to focus on any one person though. Underneath his armor Sarad's skin started to redden, an indication of the trauma that had occurred deeper inside of his body. He'd definitely suffered bruised skin, it was possible some of his muscles had been shredded or suffered from the impact, maybe there was even some bruising to his organs. At this point he didn't have the information.
"Droids."
...the word sputtered from his mouth like a sudden revelation. It explained everything, especially why he had a difficult time sensing Alessanda, maybe why he felt the same about S0-T0 whereas he could feel @'Juno' Harts connection to the force and knew that the Barabel,
Mikremx Tremsi
and the other combatant,
Lirka Ka
were living and breathing.
Normally Sarad limited himself in combat, he focused on battlefield control not tactics that were altogether considered offensive but against a Droid, even an expensive humanoid replica he held no such reservations.
As Sarad picked himself up and into a kneeling position he'd extend his right arm, lightsaber still clutched in its grasp, the heat of which created ambient waves that distorted the area directly in front of him. He focused on
Alessandra Io

Alteration of the Environment was usually tricky in an arena setting, there weren't many natural things one could alter however pressure was one of them. It was wasn't the type of pressure that could be applied via telekinesis either, it was a natural pressure; the kind of pressure that existed when someone shot up from the bottom of the depths of the ocean all the way to the surface again. A Human, unprepared could literally 'pop' if they rose to fast. In this case Sarad didn't expect Alessandra to 'pop' but the increase of pressure in the arena around her would surmount to what could cause someones ear drums to burst or their eyes to explode. She wasn't a person, she was something else but pressure was pressure....
