| Jul 11, 2020 at 16:59 | comment | added | Valorum | @user - It doesn't work "one in a million". When we see it being used on anything other than Jedi uber masters, it's pretty darned effected. | |
| Jul 11, 2020 at 16:58 | comment | added | user | @Valorum because the "dupe" doesn't answer this. It gives a few odd examples of times it worked but that doesn't explain why soldiers are trained to use a tactic that only works about 1 in a million times, and don't notice that their comrades are being slaughtered and change tactics. The clones acknowledge it and incorporate it into their tactics, after all. | |

| Jul 10, 2020 at 20:02 | comment | added | Valorum | I'm at a loss why this has been reopened. Any answer to this would likely draw on examples straight from the dupe question. | |

| Jul 10, 2020 at 19:33 | comment | added | user | I'm asking about the in-universe explanation for this tactic. The other question is only tangentially related, at most it only serves to prove the point. | |
| Jul 10, 2020 at 18:31 | comment | added | Cadence | Why do people keep shooting at Superman? At least a Jedi can make mistakes. | |
| Jul 10, 2020 at 17:36 | comment | added | tbrookside | Next you'll be asking why no one who fights Jedi has ever invented artillery or hand grenades. | |
| Jul 10, 2020 at 16:09 | comment | added | DavidW | Plus even powerful Jedi can be shot if there enough simultaneous shots that they can't block or dodge all of them. | |

| Jul 10, 2020 at 15:49 | comment | added | Valorum | The problem is that we spend most of our time with what basically boils down to Jedi royalty, the best of the best of the best (with honours) who're essentially near-immortal killing machines. The rest of the order isn't nearly so powerful. | |
