he was a lightsaber master better than sidious and rivaling windu
his force abilities only grew stronger with age, especially with his training to be able to become a force ghost in preparation for his death
he kicked the shit out ot anakin for a reason
yeah but heâs dumb enough to stand next to a murder robot who he knows is going to kill him
he cut him in half once god damn it he can do it again
then why didnt he do it again?
turns out executing the closest thing you have to family is hard
he did it once tbf
and it traumatized him badly enough to nearly cripple his force ability
sounds like his problem
also anakin is literally space jesus born from a virgin
- He was a defensive master, not an offensive master
- He was close to Windu, but Windu had certain talents that made him much better at defeating users of the Dark Side of the Force
- But his physical abilities weakened. The way Qui-Gon crafted the force ghost ability took a large amount of force as well to maintain.
- He used a forbidden lightsaber technique. Anakin was better at lightsaber combat and had more force power, he was simply overconfident.
Fantasy of the Hype
well yes, obi wan uses soresu while windu uses the more aggressive vaapad style
but heâs visibly outperformed other duelists in combat, having taken on both maul and savage at the same time (as while while sidious was being pushed back and forced to use his force powers)
itâs possible to enhance your body with the force
itâs how yoda and sidious can move so actively, and vader has admitted that if he were to use fine control on that ability he could end up crushing his own saber hilt
i had no clue whatsoever about the forbidden technique thing however the force power comparison is just unfair
anakin is literally a demigod
the only person who could match him in power is luke, who literally pulled a star destroyer to the ground
Only when upset, though
- Death of his master
- Betrayal of Anakin
- Death of that one girl by Savage (I forget her name)
If you want to try and use Grievous as an example, itâs a bit harder to argue against that one, except for the fact that Grievous mainly used intimidation, stealth, and overwhelming raw energy to overcome his opponents. If you look back at the movies, you see that Grievous is actually⌠not very good at fighting. For example, if he had better control over his limbs, he wouldâve been able to kill Obi Wan on the first blow quite literally.
Yar
But it requires you to sacrifice some of your force capability
Isnât that
The entire comparison being made though???
You canât just go âwell Obi Wan is better than Anakin, and this statistical way Anakin is better? No, thatâs unfairâ
Long story short
Caught wolf
/vote Italy
Italy destroyed with facts and logic!
You forgot to ping the host
anakin was born with a downright illogical amount of midi chlorians and it makes him probably literally the strongest force user ever itâs like trying to arm wrestle hercules you already know heâs gonna send you through the table
but i digress because jedi for some reason never press this fucking advantage??? you can literally throw mile long spaceships at people and youâre telling me you canât utilize these powers more than once every other minute in a fight?
obi wan was a bad matchup for anakin no matter what in the end because of djem soâs physically taxing nature and the fact that obi wan trained him in the first place
Exactly!
canon grievous is kind of a bitch
if you want him to be the murder machine he deserves to be you should check out legends
