In episode 7 of \u201cAhsoka,\u201d Ezra Bridger intriguingly opts not to use a lightsaber while fending off bandits, despite Sabine Wren\u2019s insistence. This refusal signifies a deeper shift in his character. During his exile on Peridea, it\u2019s likely Ezra has continued to combat Thrawn, possibly even taking out some of his Night Troopers. This suggests he\u2019s learned to fight without relying on a weapon.<\/p>\n
Though he declines to take back his old lightsaber from Sabine, Ezra proves adept at handling Peridea bandits, Thrawn\u2019s Night Troopers, and even Shin Hati. He\u2019s developed a unique form of combat, blending hand-to-hand fighting with well-timed Force pushes. He tells Sabine, \u201cthe Force is my ally. That\u2019s all I need,\u201d echoing Chirrut \u00cemwe from Rogue One who says, \u201cI am one with the Force and the Force is with me.\u201d Ezra\u2019s newfound confidence in fighting without a lightsaber is grounded in practical reasons.<\/p>\n
Surprisingly, in their current circumstances, Sabine is actually more proficient with a lightsaber than Ezra, and he recognizes this. \u201cAhsoka\u201d takes place after The Mandalorian season 3, meaning at least nine years have passed since Ezra last wielded a lightsaber. He trusts Sabine\u2019s skills and also puts faith in Ahsoka\u2019s choice of her as a Padawan.<\/p>\n
Another reason Ezra refuses to reclaim his lightsaber is because he initially gave it to Sabine during the Battle of Lothal. Over the years, Sabine has customized the saber to suit her own style, making it more hers than Ezra\u2019s. She\u2019s owned it for much longer than he did, solidifying Ezra\u2019s belief that it\u2019s now her weapon.<\/p>\n
While it\u2019s possible Dave Filoni may have a significant moment planned for Ezra regarding his lightsaber, for now, Ezra seems content to fight in his own unique style. His exile may have instilled in him an unshakable trust in the Force, considering it was his primary tool against Thrawn. The finale of Ahsoka will reveal whether Ezra\u2019s stance on using a lightsaber changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
