I mean, Filoni’s series doesn’t line up with Genndy’s almost at all. Ventress only has one major appearance, and it’s suggested she dies.

The old canon’s tiered system of some things retconning others made it so that Filoni’s team tried to avoid Genndy’s timeframe as much as possible, but Anakin’s knighting leads almost directly into the Battle of Coruscant, by the way it’s structured. It’s a bit messy, but Filoni tries not to retcon anything if he can help it, but will do whatever he thinks is best for a story.

I think the old EU has established multiple timeframes for the Clone Wars, I’ve seen 2 years, 3 years, and 4 years published, but I don’t think anything in the new Canon has been said officially. And even if it had, that might be hanging out with Ahsoka’s green lightsabers and the red paint job on the clone armour when Caleb/Kanan experienced Order 66.
