[Star Wars]Is Thrawn an actual military genius or does he only seem so because everyone else in Star Wars is an idiot?

like how does to compare to our military leaders?

ya know how like clone troopers are described as good soldiers but fight like a bunch of cover hating blind idiots.

I think a major part of Thrawn's skill comes from his ability to read and know his opponent, and he is genuinely extremely talented at that.

He probably knows what command style you favor even before the battle begins. If he's talking to you, he studies your facial expressions and speech patterns to predict what you're actually thinking. He pays attention to details that other people just don't pick up on.
