Hey y’all,
Thought I’d start up a fun thread here and ask what everyone's favorite animation in the game is. If you have multiples, go ahead and list them!
My two favorites are, in order from first to last,
Sith Marauder's special ability. I absolutely love his saber throw, coolest thing in the game.
Grievous’s Second special ability, love the way he crawls on the ground and then slams his sabers into the enemy.
Tag me if you reply to my comment so I know I should answer you!😀 My roster:

Anything Thrawn does.
Nothing 3p0 does.
I also remember when I unlocked Vader 3 years ago being blown away by the force crush and saber throw animations. And maybe I was looking too hard into it but OG kylo second special has the same animation as Vader’s basic, as a symbol of his adoration towards him. Also lash out was very impressive when it came out
Looks really bad***.
•Sidious' "Demoralizing Blows" is a throw back to his duel with Maul and Savage.
•Dookus' "Master of Makashi" embodies his character.
•Revan's "Direct Focus" has that samurai feel the way he holds his saber above his head and extends his hand.
•Nihilus' "Drain Force" and "Annihilate" also encapsulate the character perfectly.
•Visas Marr's "Telekinetic Blast" cause it looks like she's blowing a kiss and the turnaround with her "Piercing Strike".
There's a lot of good animations in this game that they really help sell the "feel" of Star Wars. The animators definitely put a lot of soul and love into their art.

2. DR's basic
3. Dooku's master of Makashi
4. Anakin's skill ( the new animation is so satisfying blowing away your opponents)
5. GK's mass assist skill
6. Thrawn's fracture!!!
7. Qira's skill that she uses a Thrawn like movement
8. JKR's 2nd skill where he AOE saberthrow
9. Vader's culling blade
10. Sidious' demoralizing blow, very bad ****!
11. Fulcrum's meditation and whirlwind
Favorite map background animation is hands down Coruscant for fleet battles.
Coruscant’s surface now rolls with slower moving clouds to give a neat orbital fight.
Hoth background animations, though the snow speeders sound like Bespin Cloud Cars.
Embo's hat Throw and his basic where he 1-hands the Bowcaster
Dooku's new salute
Sid's AOE.
DR's attack where he hits the ground with his saber....
Yes, this, you beat me to it.
Jolee: Eh, You Do It.
As someone said already, it's pretty fitting to his character how he's just like "meh, you got it kid".
Zaalbar: Power Blast
Looks cool how he sticks Bacca's Blade into the ground to whip out the bowcaster for an explosive blast.
Dooku: Master of Makashi
One of his signature poses from the movies and tv show. They nailed the animation.
B1: Blast Them!
Captures the feel that you're fighting an army of them without just copying how NS Zombie is.
Visas: Piercing Strike
The behind the back stab is very unique. Too bad she's not really useful of a character.
JKA: Overpowering Assault
The new animation does a great job of capturing a raging Anakin.
As you notice these are all newer animations. They make the older ones look boring in comparison, IMO.
