Lus-ma was a form of lightsaber combat which Count Dooku taught General Grievous and his IG-100 MagnaGuards. Like Sokan, Lus-ma was not part of the classic combat forms of the Jedi, but its lightsaber moves and ideals are akin to those of Form III.

It was designed to be used against masters of Soresu, the third classical form which, if mastered, mounted an almost impregnable defense against attackers. The principle underlying Soresu, to constantly be on the defensive until a perfect opportunity to counterattack presented itself, was used against it with Lus-ma.

abstract	Lus-ma was a form of lightsaber combat which Count Dooku taught General Grievous and his IG-100 MagnaGuards. Like Sokan, Lus-ma was not part of the classic combat forms of the Jedi, but its lightsaber moves and ideals are akin to those of Form III. Lus-ma was a technique employed in lightsaber combat. It was designed to be used against masters of Soresu, the third classical form which, if mastered, mounted an almost impregnable defense against attackers. The principle underlying Soresu, to constantly be on the defensive until a perfect opportunity to counterattack presented itself, was used against it with Lus-ma. A Lus-ma attack was designed to fail; it could be sluggish, poorly aimed, weak, any of the above, or demonstrate another flaw which would render it easily deflected. The idea was to give a Soresu master what he thought would be his long-awaited opening; when he tried to press the attack, his enemy could quickly overpower him before the Soresu master returned to defense. Lus-ma was, however, extremely dangerous for those who could not use it correctly, and a fighter who employed it needed to only feign weakness or error while remaining in total control of his attack. If used imperfectly against a Soresu fighter, an attacker using Lus-ma could find himself actually defeated by a well-timed Soresu counterstrike.
