And, as I have been informed just now, that is the only Attack Button function performed by shaking the Wiimote. Blasters and ship guns are fired with B exclusively.
Love to see my favorite extra Self Destruct get some love. Fun fact, if you jump out of a vehicle, quickly swap to a droid, and self destruct, it forces the droids to pilot the vehicles, which they normally are barred from. (At least, that's how it worked in the original Lego Star Wars 2.)
5:04 that reminds me of something: if you decide to do this challenge for the skywalker saga, you'll find that dark side and maybe jedi characters can't pick up non-droid enemies until you unlock the force lift upgrade
5:54 - I've seen speedrunners use the force to push R2 off the ledge whilst P2 is controlling R2 in a jump/glide. I think you could make it with one less attack press with this
Now isn't it more of an attack to just selfdestruct? I mean it's called kamikaze "attack" for a reason. And wouldn't deflecting blaster bolts with a lightsaber be considered more of a defense? I mean...you're not the one initiating the attack there. You're just...defending yourself.
Btw at 8:37 it is acc possible to get up there with yoda if u jump on the head piece dispenser and jump to the platform on the same level. Doesnt matter in the end but good to know

7:00 You should look up the speedruns for this level. Manipulating Grievous' movement a certain way will make Cody finish the battle entirely on his own while you just jump around as Obi-Wan.
@@learnt2love Start with Episodes IV and V, because that's what came out first, and it preserves the biggest plot twist in cinematic history. (Yes, that is a thing that can be spoiled.) Plus, you don't have to start with Jar Jar. Then watch the Prequels as a flashback, which makes for a more effective delivery on the OTHER big twist regarding Luke's family, makes it more conceivable that Luke might actually turn to the Dark Side, and reduces any confusion with Hayden Christensen appearing as the Anakin ghost. The original Machete Order skips Episode I because its absence doesn't actually change anything, but I think that should be a judgement call. And then finally, Episode VI.
@@DrRankEp 1 doesn't change anything when it comes to the overall broad plot of the movies, but imo Padme, Anakin, Qui Gon, and Palpatine's scenes in that movie add a lot of meat to the rest of that trilogy. You get a sense of how at odds Qui Gon was with the order, and how bad Anakin's ultimate pairing with Obi Wan would become, you see Palpatine in his politician persona more, Anakin's relationship with his mother and his home planet, and Padme's background which imo adds a lot to the romance between her and Anakin
@@MorroGoodman I assure you, I did not. I simply came back to them later. Episodes II-VI are unlocked after finishing Negotiations, not after Darth Maul.
@@DrRank still it would have been better if you just played the game like it was initially supposed to be played instead of just jumping to the next episode it feels like cheating
Simple
Use a wiimote
Shaking it causes a lightsaber swing, and you cant call shaking your wiimote a button press
And, as I have been informed just now, that is the only Attack Button function performed by shaking the Wiimote. Blasters and ship guns are fired with B exclusively.
@@DrRank yes
But it makes saber bosses take no B presses
Just shakes
This was great. My favorite part had to be getting the "canonical" kill with Palpatine by pushing him out of bounds 😂
you could skip the first sandcrawler room with a lag clip, fun fact!
Finally. Star.
in 5-6, you can clip r2 through the door to go back inside to skip needing 3po there

You clearly had the high ground for this run.
After this I think the droids need a raise after blowing up about a hundred times.
Fantastic video. I was so captivated by this challenge, and all the red bricks you would need.

You could use the 2nd player to shoot R2 D2 as he flies to give him a boost and make that one bridge raising part in 1 jump in the droid factory
@@ZazaJordan I did try that, but I couldn't get it to work.

@@EmeraldSpencer See the problem is, that requires Cody to be player-controlled and press the Attack button ten times.
@DrRank I see. I failed to notice that in the videos I saw.
I love that game I grew up with this I have the Lego Star Wars the vidoe game and Lego Star Wars 2 the original trilogy
Here's my guess, 3 levels off the top of my head I think will be problematic.
Chapter 3 level 6
Chapter 5 level 2
Chapter 6 level 3
Ah, The Complete Saga. Wonder what the number would be for the GBA first game...
@@Akay4444444444444444 A lot higher, I'd wager.
The machete order ?! 2:42
Just no context...Look it up yourself ? Thanks.

Wait, you walk with AT-AT here?!
@@nutcrackerscrack9861 Yeah. It'd be pretty lame if it was just a pivoting turret.
Good Video
Short answer: No.
Sky Lego war
What about Grieve Cheese for Grievous? Could that lower the amount of attacks for that level?
@@XxDiamondDavidxX I'm not familiar with that strategy.
But if it involves pushing Grievous off the edge, it won't work. He just jumps straight out.
Weirdest ruleset
2:37 that’s cheating 😡
@@MorroGoodman Why? The game lets you do it without modification or cheat codes.
@ no it’s just like cheating because he skipped the boss of darth mual and pod racer
