Form V was the creation of a group of Form III masters who felt that Soresu was too passive to be practical, and Ataru was severely lacking in necessary kinetic energy. It addressed the shortcomings of Form III, in which a Jedi Master may have proved to be insurmountable, but was likewise unable to overcome a skilled opponent, and those of Form IV, focusing the attacks of strength as opposed to speed.

abstract	Form V was the creation of a group of Form III masters who felt that Soresu was too passive to be practical, and Ataru was severely lacking in necessary kinetic energy. It addressed the shortcomings of Form III, in which a Jedi Master may have proved to be insurmountable, but was likewise unable to overcome a skilled opponent, and those of Form IV, focusing the attacks of strength as opposed to speed. Utilizing a combination of blocks and parries, a Form V user had a proper foundation in terms of defense against both ranged and melee attacks, but while a Soresu user stayed on the defensive and only counterattacked when necessary, or when an opening appeared, a Form V practitioner was not nearly so measured. Immediately after defending against an opponent's strike, a Form V stylist would follow with an attack of their own, bringing the Force of the opponent's blow against them and seeking to dominate the duel. Djem So was designed exclusively for lightsaber-to-lightsaber combat and placed a heavy focus on pure strength and power, with wide, powerful strikes and parries followed by a counterattack. However, it's obvious strengths were offset by obvious weaknesses. Due to the amount of force put behind it's blows and attacks, a Djem So stylist could not pull out of such an attack without considerable difficulty, leaving practitioners easily outmaneuvered. However, skilled practitioners could easily compensate for these weaknesses through sheer speed.
