Rebels, find a watch list if you want to skip the more kiddy first season but it’s really all worth watching. Then just know that ahsoka made a cameo in the book of boba Fett where she is trying to find admiral thrawn, and that she knows luke and maybe helped him with his school for a time but it’s not clear on that
I’m going to guess that they try to make the characters and history make sense to audiences that have only seen the live action series but it looks like a direct continuation of Star Wars Rebels.
yeah this show is going to be too mainstream for them to just throw it at the audiences that haven’t watched the animated series without giving background. Otherwise all the more casual star wars watchers are going to be constantly asking “who’s this, who’s that, why does this matter, why does it seem like we’ve seen him before?”.
Of course, the other route they could take is writing in such a way that you don’t really need any of the backstory for this story to be told, but I doubt that’s going to be the case for some reason
Dunno. But they seem to be leaning quite heavily into the "I'm no Jedi," thing. All of the lightsabers none of the dogma? I think it's an interesting way to go considering how big the sick-of-jedi-sith contingency is these days.
As far as we saw in Rebels, she only trained with Kanan. Sabine only found the Dark Saber well after the events at Malachor, which was the last we really saw of Ahsoka in Rebels until the bits in the last few episodes, so didn't train with Ahsoka. I'm a little puzzled by the whole "walking away from you" and "Master" bits in the trailer, since they didn't really have a relationship other than fellow insurgents in Rebels.
Anyway, I would expect Sabine to have lightsaber skills similar to Bo-Katan's, given that Bo-Katan likely trained with it more than Sabine did (though, on the other hand, Sabine had some instruction from an actual Jedi). She has her Mandalorian tricks (like the cable gun, flame thrower, etc.) that should make it a more interesting fight with a Force wielder, but she'd be outmatched.

Remember that Rebels ended before the Battle of Yavin. There were about 5 years between the main story finale and the epilogue, which would have been plenty of time for Ahsoka to spend some time training and then subsequently abandoning Sabine ahead of their reunion shown in the epilogue.
Outmatched, really Mandalorian armour and combat training was designed to go up against Jedi They fought a war against the order after all, and also the Old Republic
Against an untrained Mandalorian The Mandalorian War ended when the Old Republic and Jedi scorched the surface of Mandalore Only way to beat them was by war crime
Same. I figured she was saying it at least a little tongue in cheek. Though, hopefully Ahsoka HAS played the master role with her in a more direct way in the intervening years.
Yeah, she’s still got Ezra’s (from the Rebels finale when he left it with her as he went to confront Thrawn), and has at least some training with it from Kanan when she had the Darksaber.
I feel there could be a fan service joke, where that clip from the trailer is when they break Chopper out of prison, after his trial at the Space Hague over his war crimes. But that probably won't be the case.
