The fact that anakin is b tier and theres still more to go just shows how stupidly op this bloodline is
Hearing you say Ben Solo and Rey Skywalker without cringing is impressive.
Shmi’s inclusion was the breaking point between me staying a subscriber, thank you for reaffirming my decision.
So you still are a subscriber?
😂
Lol
Lol bro what’s wrong with you
@@lordinvictus793 Apparently not I would guess. He's so offended Schmi is included for some reason.
I knew Luke would be at the top of this list, but to me, his father would also be in this tier at his full potential
Legends luke is just full potential anakin. They both have the same potential both in canon and legends novels
@@narutard7737 i would say luke has 99.99% of anikins potential. anikin is literally the offspring of the force. and luke is that and half human.
Ben Skywalker is one of my fave Legends characters, his sass and wit aside, his potential was what I found extremely interesting about him. We see glimpses of his true potential at certain points in Fate of the Jedi, specifically I believe during Apocalypse. Like being able to unleash a concentrated telekinetic blast of the Force strong enough to destroy a Capital ship, in a "holy hand grenade" on Abeloth. Or being able to achieve a form of Oneness with the Force, a state of immense power at any rate, that unlike Jacen (following his battle with Onimi) was not stated to be unachievable again. When you have literal Cthulhu from the time of Force Gods claiming Ben has the potential to become the next "Daughter", then that is high praise indeed.
Exar kun force blast a huge mountain ⛰️ way before he became a sith lord
I couldn’t agree more with you brother.
Mhmm@@alsimmonshellspawn6021
No surprise that Luke Skywalker was at the S rank on the list. This was one of your best non-VS videos I’ve seen. Since you had done a video like this, can you do a ranking video of apprentices trained by Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader? After all, we know that the Chosen One had trained a lot of Force Users in his life.
I likely think Lumiya or Mara Jade is in the top, with Ahsoka likely being the lower end of the spectrum but not the bottom, as that would be the Disney Fodder Inquisitors.
@@lapplandkun9273 It would be Starkiller and Lumiya in S imo for Lumiya’s performances against GM Luke and SK’s against Sidious and Vader.
@@lapplandkun9273ahsoka is pretty dog water generally, she'd be barely above the other filoni apprentices
Reporting for spoilers
@@Jiub_SNahsoka beat maul (yes I know barely) but still. She’s no slouch
Leia had some very impressive feats in the last Legends Novel Crucible, where she was able to keep up with a Post Abeloth fight Luke. Granted, Luke wasn't at his best at the time, but together with her brother, Leia had some straight up "Anakin on Mortis" level feats (well, Crucible is weird, they might have actually BEEN on Mortis).
dammit thats one of the few books in the series i missed out on :( now i gotta read it
It was decent but nothing in Crucible compares to Mortakin dominating the two representations of Light and Darkness whose power was suggested by the Father to tear apart the fabric of the Universe. Not even close to that. Mortakin is way beyond anything from either Leia or Luke, especially since Abeloth scales below the Father on account of him being the one to personally intervene and imprison her, and Luke struggled enormously against her on multiple occasions.
It wasn't Mortis.
@@SuperSirius11 dude eu Leia was more powerful than anakin ever was, the mortis feat is king of overrated because the planet they were was a strong force nexus anakin couldn't never archive that level of power by himself ever again because he lacks of acknowledge of the force why luke and Leia open up more to the will of the force.
Please tell me about this on discord cause I need to know what feats you’re referring to
Could you imagine if Leia HAD fully committed to being a Jedi? Not only would her own power have grown but I think Luke would have gotten even stronger too. If they had both thrown themselves into training together, I believe their twin-connection in the Force would have subconsciously pushed them to be equals in all measures like a more-productive and healthy version of sibling rivalry.
Twin Jedi Grandmasters, the two most powerful Force-users in history. I want that.
Jaina actually retreated after the first duel, and as you note Jacen was focused on saving his daughter(Jaina outright admits he could end her with one final blast) he just chose not too.
True, yet some components in both duels also indicate how close and relative the adult twins are. With Battle-meditation, it can only enhance an individual to the peak of their capabilities, and minorly weaken the opposition. In the duel on Tython, Jedi masters Raskta Lsu and Valentyne Farfalla were enhanced, ye repeatedly out-fought, over-powered and dominated by Darth Bane; orbalisks aside the sheer magnitude and skill Bane carried outweighed the enhanced Jedi. And Darth Zannah managed to hold her ground against Sarro Xaj and stage manage him and Johun Othone under the detrimental side of Battlemeditation.
Jaina Fel against Darth Caedus, she was much more dominant in the duel with him, and without battle-meditation she still held her own; to the point neither her nor Caedus could identify Shatterpoints in the other. Caedus did concede the fight to warn Tenel Ka and save their daughter, after Jaina managed to ambush him and still they dueleld evenly (given Caedus' own sense talents and surviving Mara jade's ambushes less wounded, that is impressive on Jaina's part).
She was dominant in the second duel because Caedus literally did not want to fight her. He would have preferred she had just walked away. Caedus had also sustained severe injuries including a severed arm and as you note his attention was divided.
Jaina constantly needed Luke to either mess with Jacen’s visions, outright projected force illusions or other amplifications. And even then when Caedus is explicitly stated to be a walking dead man requiring the force to simply stand-he still might have won, if the reason he didn’t become a Sith Lord in the first place was not in jeopardy.
@@lordinvictus793 I wrote that Jaina was dominant in the 1st duel between them, on Nickel One, and in the 2nd clash Jaina did ambush Darth Caedus, Caedus fought back, and both of them square-on couldn't identify a chink or advantage over the other, and had to draw-out the fight or move elsewhere.
If the gap your advocating between Jaina nad Caedus was present, the dynamics of those contests would have mirrored Farfalla and Raskta Lsu's performance against Darth Bane; not with her pressing Caedus back and severing his arm on Nickel One, or both of them wounding each other and duelling (swordsmanship) evenly on the Anakin Solo.
@@geoffreyedgson7875 Caedus was superior to Jaina in the force. Mind you he managed to fight GM Luke in Inferno and not die immediately. There is a gap. Caedus is either distracted, occupied, or simply badly injured throughout every fight in Invincible. Even in the first duel-Jaina escaped because Caedus was tricked by Luke. Jaina never engages Jacen when he is at the peak of his abilities, he doesn't have Luke screwing with him, or he is actually focused on defeating his sister.
The comparison is apples and oranges.
@@lordinvictus793 Absolutely. Yet Anakin Skywalker was superior Force-wise to Kenobi (majority of categories), Darth Sidious was superior to Windu, Dasaan had greater magnitude and could use Force-illusions on Yavin when Katarn defeated him, and Force-wise Darth Maul was at least 2 classes above Knight/Padawan-Kenobi on Naboo.
Force-wise there is a significant gap between the developed powers, repertoire and magnitude between Darth Caedus and Jaina. They do share comparable innate aptitude though and developed via different avenues, with Jaina likely ahead combat-skill wise,f a better infiltrator since outside GM Luke's jamming, she successfully ambushed Caedus, twice (making that a consistent feat), and she could achieve a degree of immersion within the Force which Evannova95 compared to "Pseudo-Oneness," which Caedus no longer does.
Separate to that, in the first duel on Nickel One between Caedus & Jaina, Caedus deliberately allowed Jaina to get away so he could utilize a Nightsister blood-trail to follow her back to the Jedi.
True, a straight-up, 1-on-1, honour-duel scenario never occurred between Darth Caedus and Jaina. Yet at the same time, in battle, with larger risks and consequences involved, the Jedi and Jaina chose to be practical instead of honourable (avoiding the traps the Old Jedi Order walked into on Geonosis or the Chancellor's office)
I am not arguing that Jaina is above Caedus. Yet, to have any capacity to threaten him, or fight Caedus directly should any trap fail get half results (as they did) she could still have a foot in the door to defeat him.
Also I just want to say that Jaina in Fate Of The Jedi Apocalypse says “Ben your a fairly sensitive young man, and as strong in The Force as your father.” This was said in the book after Jaina went to Abeloths planet to pick up Ben. This really makes me believe that Ben like his father has The Force Potential of the Chosen One. And it makes sense too if you think about it. After the events of Fate Of The Jedi. Ben was out hunting Sith of the Lost Tribe he had to have been an integral part in restoring order and balance after their emergence.
It is also said in Legacy Of The Force that Luke is the only one sure to beat Caedus. And Luke has the Chosen Ones Force Potential. And during Caedus fight with Jaina he practically resigned from the fight so he could save his daughter.
Caedus’ throwing the fight is something Evan has never seemed to really acknowledge.
@@lordinvictus793 He mentioned it in either his Mace Windu vs Darth Caedus or his Jaina Solo Fel vs Anakin Skywalker.
Yeah as an aside though. It’s noted in Invincible itself Jacen is the stronger, and as badly injured as he was(he’s described as requiring the force to just keep standing) he could have won, he just had something more important to do.
That point I think is under emphasized whenever Caedus is brought up.
@@lordinvictus793 Even so, Caedus still said that eventually he could win in time.
@@muhamedquraishi Yeah.
Low key want to see a Jedi and Sith order era tier list now.
Brotherhood of Darkness goes near the bottom for Sith probably.
He made a Jedi council one, and is hopefully making another Jedi one for ABY. Love to see a Sith one as well, although it might have to encompass more of history.
@@R0-83-RTNearly (thanks Bane) winning a war against the army of light (Lord Hoth was all but ready to pass on mere moments before Kaan could shoot him down) and uniting the sith of all people is insanely impressive.
Don’t FORGET the petition to have Christie Golden writing the Sword Of The Jedi Series!!!
In the words of Count Dooku: ¨I´ve been looking forward to this.¨
The luke vader part has the same problem as wolverine's healing factor. How strong it is depends entirely on whose writing the story
which is why the best fiction stories are the ones written by the same author continuesly
We have been watching your career with great interest for many years. Very nice to see you still making extremely detailed content all these years later.
I've been watching a lot of your old versus videos those were always very engaging it's great to know that you're still making videos.
Absolutely loved this video! I think its one of your best.
Hi Evan, great video as usual. I’m really happy you mentioned the Fels since I was a little nervous they would be forgotten about despite their ties with the Skywalker, so I really appreciate it. Also as a side note, I’m part of your VIP Patreon subscription and made a request a while back about my question in your last post Q&A video. No rush of course but I’m curious to see the likely hood of said project with my added subscription.
Excellent video. No complaints honestly. You may have been somewhat generous in places but I honestly enjoy entertaining similar positions myself.
Phenomenal work on the production of this video! 👏
You really need to be hired by disney to be a lore educator to these people. Your depth and knowledge of Lucas' world is astounding to me.
why? Disney was the one who jettisoned the EU out of existence and Kathleen said there were no material to draw on. No thanks. Don't want Disney to touch the EU after they had already destroyed the franchise with the ST
They have Pablo and Leland
@@user-yq9im9dk9z useless
@@lapplandkun9273 actually george lucas and filoni were still at the helm in 2012-13 when that happened in the first place. not all kathleen's fault :)
Disney would rather make new stuff up and fail the fans
So nice to see this Evan. Thank You my friend.
Alright... what to say, except freaking awesome xD Kol is quite high but his scaling is well backed up (and I like Kol), so I find it hard to argue. Beyond that, its great to see a little detail to Anakin/Vader scaling, and seeing Jaina/Cade get attention in a video is always great for me.
And while I know I've said it before I'm still getting used to see my artworks in your vids xD tho most definetly much appreatiated.
Great vid, reminds me a lot of the Star Wars Weakest to Strongest vids SeththeProgrammer did in terms of format. That mighty Skywalker blood is no joke.
I’ve been so hyped for this vid
Amazing video as always, might rank suited Vader a bit higher, but I loved the respect you gave him here as well as this as a whole. Thank you for your time making this.
Personally I'd put Vader on roughly the same tier as Jaina and Jacen, though slightly lower than them
@@kaitosevski3881 Yeah, I agree that they’re quite close.
Suited Vader sucks major ass. According to George Lucas he's at about Qui Gon and Maul's level during episode 1.
Great vid as always Evan! Really looking forward to ur what if dooku was redeemed. Would u be open to a versus between anakin and obi wan vs Revan and Malak (bro's vs bro's) and also potentially a vid ranking factions like jedi and sith from their weakest to most powerful era in star wars?? Either way I look forward to more vids.
Absolutely amazing. This video made me sub!
Can’t argue with any of your logic here. Very sound. Great video!
Good to see you again, old friend.
Also....First...May the Force Be With You.
Just subscribed to your channel. Love the channel.
We need more people covering stuff from Legends.
I haven’t seen this name in years on CZcams, glad something of yours popped into my recommended
Love your content mate
I'm still of the belief that they're in this order (and they're all young, all at the peak of their prime, all fully uninjured (so Anakin Skywalker has all four of his limbs and tissue intact, Luke has his right hand intact, Jacen/Caedus has his left arm intact, etcetera), all at their true absolute full maximum Force potential, all drank every drop from the Font of Power, all bathed in and soaked up every drop from the Pool of Knowledge, all were amplified by the Throne of Balance, all had the entirety of the Force from across the entire multiverse, and all were in the realm of Beyond Shadows in the Mortis pocket universe) (these are Skywalkers from the Official EU Canon, and not Disney's crap):
1) Anakin Skywalker as The Son of the Suns (in addition to him also being The Chosen One)
2) Grand Master Luke Skywalker from the very end of 'Star Wars: Crucible' (so....Post-Crucible and Pre-Legacy)
3) Leia Skywalker-Organa-Solo (yes, that's what I'm referring to her as....I'm still wondering why she never accepted her true birth last/maiden name (or just surname) after she forgave her father in 'Star Wars: Tatooine Ghost')
4) Ben Skywalker (Post-Crucible)
5) Anakin Solo (had he survived the Yuuzhan Vong War and not died in 'Star Wars: The New Jedi Order: Star by Star' and been training for the last twenty plus years from Star by Star to Crucible)
6) Allana Djo Solo (as The Jedi Queen)
7) Jacen Solo (Post-'Star Wars: The New Jedi Order: The Unifying Force' where, again, Anakin didn't die, and Jacen continued to train himself further in the Force to try and again achieve that same state of Total Oneness with the Force he experienced at the end of The Unifying Force, or even surpass it....and with all the years going by to when TDNT, LOTF, and FOTJ took place (as, since Anakin would still be alive, Jacen wouldn't become Darth Caedus, and would live past the time that the 'Star Wars: Legacy of the Force' book series was set in), and then live all the way up to the time after Crucible ends....so Post-Crucible for him as well)
8) Jaina Solo-Fel (as The Sword of the Jedi) (Post-Crucible and Pre-Legacy during what would've been shown in the 'Star Wars: Sword of the Jedi Trilogy' book series that would've been set between these two time periods)
9) Kol Skywalker
10) Cade Skywalker (after defeating Reborn Darth Krayt)
(no Nat Skywalker...because I didn't like him at all...sorry, but that's just my own honest opinion) (Ania Solo, Roan Fel, and Marisiah Fel are slightly beneath Cade)
#LongLiveTheStarWarsExpandedUniverseTheOneTrueOfficialAndOnlyStarWarsCanon
Obviously Luke deserves the top spot. To my knowledge no other family member defeated (an exact clone of) Palpatine in a straight up duel. He mastered all forms of lightsaber combat AND redeemed Darth Vader.
Sidious was far more powerful than Luke in DE, the only reason Luke beat him was because he had lost all of his bodies that could actually use his full power.
Let this shit be known anakin could shit on luke at any given time
Awesome video 👍🏻
Here’s an interesting matchup, a free-for-all battle between three extremely powerful Sith Masters in galactic history:
Darth Sidious (Dark Empire) vs Darth Caedus vs Darth Krayt (Resurrected)
DE Palpatine wins if he can throw force storms, if not it’s well it’s a genuine toss up.
@@lordinvictus793 those storms have never been combat applicable.
Caedus-Sidious is toss up, Krayt is out instantly.
I love your videos so much
Impressive analysis, most impressive
This is a great tier list. Also, I think I might be spoiled on the verdict of Mara Jade Skywalker vs Cade Skywalker but oh well, I get to watching that video eventually. Very in depth and very enjoyable.
@Wes Bradley-Taubner yeah I was a bit busy/procrastinating on this one honestly.
Great list
Great. I wonder if you could do more of these.
thanks your stuff is great
Great Video
Great video
1.Amazing Video, even though I disagree with your placing with Anakin below Cade.
Video ideas:
1.Ranking of combative/force feats
2.How powerful is Darth Revan/Reborn
3.Nomi Sunrider vs Darth Zannah (Obvious conclusion)
How is Nomi vs Zannah Obvious? There's no way to compare the two
Magnificent. Worth the wait.
Nawww I missed the premiere, but hey my power is gone for the next 3 hours so this is some welcome entertainment. That being said when is ur content not a great time XD. Keep up your amazing work, you continue to be one of is not my favourite Star wars content creator, official or fan made
I’m looking forward too this
A question on "Oneness with The Force": Did Obi-Wan Kenobi achieve it, much like Jacen, or Anakin Solo, or Grandmaster Luke? I ask due to how The ROTS Novelization describes him "Letting The Force flow through him, rather than him tapping into The Force for his power". With a description like that, could Kenobi have gone all glowy-god-mode like Jacen Solo versus Omini; perhaps against General Grevious, or Darth Vader (Mustafar Duel)?
To recommend some ideas, I think ranking prequel council members from weakest to strongest would be interesting! I dont think it has been made yet
I remember a scene in the Vong series, Jacen is getting testy with Leia and she simply pins him with the force and he's powerless against her, if she had been trained she would've crushed them all
Thanks for the Tukata section
I kinda hate all the stuff that's related to the Skywalker's after Luke and leia feels like they are just constantly trying to make the fans be like woah another Skywalker how crazy
same
Not only that but they have to be even more powerful than the last. Luke and Leia should be the only ones who could have become more powerful than their father (the literal Chosen One) only because he never reached his full potential. Any Skywalker born after the twins should have a substantially watered down potential.
Great vid Evan. While I agree with the ranking for the most part, I did have some questions and an inconsistency I was hoping you could address.
1. While I do agree, Darth Vader is more powerful than Clone Wars/Revenge of the Sith Anakin Skywalker, it has been noted in various works (Disney Canon and EU material) that Vader himself considers Anakin to be a separate person from himself entirely. Is there a reason you didn’t consider them two separate characters and decided to group them together when ranking them?
2. Referring back to your Anakin Skywalker vs Jaina Solo match, you had Anakin and Jaina on par with each other for most of it with Jaina being declared the victor due to some advantages she had over Anakin. So, wouldn’t that warrant putting Anakin on the same tier as Jaina and by extension Vader as well?
3. Bit of an off topic question, but would you consider remaking your previous versus matches in the style you are now? It might be an opportunity to reexamine your previous matches if you’re opinions have changed on any of them.
Thank you! To answer your questions:
1. It's mainly based on the structure of the list. The idea was that since I was examining the Skywalkers as a whole, I would be taking in the entirety of their characterization and power progression, including any-and-all transformations. I agree that Anakin and Vader are different people psychologically (marginally), but since I wanted to focus on the progression of his strength, it made more sense to me to group his different personas under one banner.
2. Similarly to the Council scale, I view the categories from C Tier onwards in this video to only be divisible by EXTREMELY small margins. It is a seperation of HOW they use their powers rather than simply what they have. I think of it like how you can give out Bronze, Silver, and Gold medals to three Olympic sprinters who are only separated in their times by 0.5 seconds. Yes, they are ranked on different pedestals, but their actual levels of physical ability compared to each other are very small in the grand scheme.
3. For sure! There are past matches like Lord Hoth VS Darth Bane and others that I've definitely had my eye on redoing.
I think you slightly underestimated Ben with regards to his fight vs Khai. 9:28 you mention that Khai wasn’t in any serious threat of dying but very shortly during that same sequence Khai was stated to be worrying he might not be making it out of the battle alive which makes me feel he was in some pretty serious danger. Overall it doesn’t change any ranking but I’ll fight to bolster my boy Ben!
Also personally I’d put suited Vader in a ranking between Cade and Caedus/Jaina. He’s definitely not stronger than Caedus or Jaina but I feel like he’s probably stronger than Cade in raw power. Or maybe ROS Anakin needs to go down into another in-between tier idk.
Still a great video to see and very much enjoyed it! Although I think Cade probably beats Vader because of his dark transfer as well as shatterpoint and lightning, I’d still love to see you do a versus on the two!
Agreed on all accounts bro.
God Yes my favorite kind of content
I really wanna see a anakin skywalker vs Cade skywalker video now lmao anyways this was great thanks Evan
I absolutely love your ending and how the SW multiverse would get destroyed if a Mortis-amped, full potential 3-way battle happened between those three. I would SO love to see it!
First, just wanted to say, epic list, totally see why you started with the first known Skywalker and totally didn't realize she was Force-sensitive. Great catch!
Issues I have with Anakin's and Ben's placing are as follows. Anakin routinely pulled out abilities that were obscure even in the days of the old Order such as using Morichro to slow the bodily function of an eel or his ability to use the Force to connect with machines. Let's not forget Vongsense which was totally crazy to me when I first read the NJO back when it was being published.
Ben might belong in this category as for me the impressive feats he achieved was more about how he could easily kill several Sith Lords at the same time in lightsaber combat. He did have a poor showing against the Mother though. So I'm sort of iffy if I'd put him in that category or not.
Here we go! At least an hour of the nightshift - would be great!
Hear me out: Ranking best Lightsaber style combination. My vote is Ataru/Shien being #1
This video was neither early or late.
It was uploaded precisely when it was meant to.
*Laughs in Gandalf while epic sax guy plays*
I know this was a long time ago, but im only getting around to watching this; and i wanted to say thank you for pointing out that Obi-Wan was nerfed on Mustafar as well!
I see so many say that anakin was nerfed and Obi-Wan wasnt, therefore saying it wasnt a valid feat for Kenobi. However, we see Obi-Wan outright deny his duty to kill Anakin for a long time, and in the novel, we even see Obi-Wan be on the backfoot, then finally getting back into the flow of battle that he had against Grievous, meaning Obi-Wan was MASSIVELY hindered for most of the duel.
Just as in Luke vs Vader in ROTJ, people discredit Luke by saying Vader was hindered, but i rarely see people point out just how hindered Luke was as well. As hindered as Vader was, he at least would continue fighting and and according to the novel, aiming to kill, whereas Luke couldnt even develop the will to fight until his anger was pushed over the edge; and once that happened, he dismantled Vader within less than a minute.
Imo, in ROTJ, both Vader and Luke are massively underestimated, same as Obi-Wan in ROTS.
for your star wars Q&A
1.Have you played starwars squadrons story mode. If so are U cureus how Grace Sienar ended up with the rebels/new republic?
2.Do you think there should a mini series ,about Iden Versio at the imperil academy from her first day to the day she got assigened to the first death star?
3. Who do you think would win and why Qinlen Vos or Depa Billaba
Jacen stomped Jaina in their first fight, and is strongly implied that he would have won their second, even though he was badly injured, if he actually tried. He also could have easily killed her if he wasn't trying to warn Tenel Ka about the danger Allana was in.
I'm glad you remembered that. She makes a note that her final attack would leave her open and that she had nothing left. He fully wore her down
Wow. This list was WAY more thorough than I was expecting. And I'm all for it. If you would, I have a few matchups for the future.
1. Darth Vitiate vs Darth Sidious (rematch)
2. Darth Vader (no holding back) vs Dark Empire Luke Skywalker
3. Darth Krayt vs Darth Vader
4. Grand master Luke Skywalker vs Darth Sidious and Darth Vader a 2v1
Sidious, pretty easily(assuming this is DE Sidious)
Luke shitstomps Suit Vader, and barely beats Mustafar Vader
Krayt stomps Suit Vader, and gets beaten without too much difficulty by Mustafar Vader
Luke wins if it's Suit Vader, it's a toss up if it's Mustafar Vader
@@Noan947hat puts darth sidious above vitiate
As it’s hard to even grasp the 2 in power
With many saying they are semi relative
Sidious maybe more skilled with a lightsaber and more knowledgeable given the rule of 2
Vitiate is more skilled with the force and has 1000 + years of experience
And power wise there can be a case made that they are equal
And in a fight it unlikely comes down to who can outsmart or skill the other
I think is a pure lightsaber fight sidious wins in a pure force fight I give it to vitiate for having more display
Basically it’s hard to toss up who is more powerful
But in terms of a fight I can see it going to siduous
As ultimately you can beat someone more powerful than you given you are more skilled and knowledgeable then they are with enough power to keep you in the game
Basically as the saying goes if equal in power a win comes down to other factors
Can you or will you ever do a versus video between Revan and Darth Nihilus?
Because I think that would be a very interesting and unique versus video.
Physical: Revan
Lightsaber: Revan
Force: Tie
Equipment: Revan
Winner: Revan 8/10
Just wanted to say I really appreciate Halo Wars' soundtrack being used in the background, very underrated soundtrack
I actually believe Shmi to be force sensitive but unware like Leia who didn't show her force sensitivity by ability until adulthood and training.
I see parallels between Shmi and Mary mother of Christ who was said to be the most blessed among women and implied purity as in terms of sin.
I think Shmi was seen by the Force the same way God saw Mary.
So idk i think the Force would need a force sensitive woman to carry the Chosen one of the Force.
Regarding Vader stomping Cade in that vision sequence, I’m a little confused as to why you think it doesn’t have much merit to it as far as a showcase of their skill levels go when you used Cade dueling a vision of Luke from that same run as evidence that suggests he would be able to.contend with and/or possibly outduel Mara Jade in their versus video. Did your opinion on that section of the video shift somewhat when researching this one?
Thanks, and much love for all the work you’ve been doing these past ten years Dude.
Evan, Return of the Jedi is celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year, which is awesome!
Really cool ranking list Evan. Excited to finally watch it.
Anakin is the strongest Skywalker when sandlusted. You underestimate his power!
Also, surprised you ranked Cade above Vader. Cade vs Anakin or Vader would be a really interesting matchup. I dont think Cades force power > Vader and he is def less skilled and experienced. Though Cades pimp force, hax, lightning, and insight into Vader means he would give Vader a really bad time.
Great discussion at the end comparing Luke's and Leia's potential to Anakin. As well as the arguments of the Skywalker family power dilution over the generations. I posted these matchups in Jensaarai1's latest video so might as well do so here.
Cade Skywalker vs Darth Cadeus: Anti Hero Skywalker vs Anti Villain Skywalker. My money is on Cadeus but I like it thematically.
Voong Infested Krayt vs Lumiya: (Post ROTJ Darth Vader Clones)
Jorus C'Baoth vs Master Faye: (can't be done sadly but mad Wizard vs High Elf looks cool)
Count Dooku vs Master Faye: (Saruman vs Galadriel)
The Ronin (SW Visions) vs Darth Wredd (I really like some episodes of Visions and it got me thinking of a good matchup)
General Grevious vs Am (Twin Sister from SW Visions): Not sure if 1 episode is enough to build a good profile for Am but I enjoyed Kill La Kill.
Lord Beida/Dark Vader + Dark Helmet vs Darth Vader (joke matchup): Darth Vader parodies vs the Original Vader.
Anakin Skywalker isn't the strongest, only at full potential but he's not the strongest
He is going to overestimate Vader and underestimate Anakin isn't he?
Your guess was correct
@@MCLegend13He covers it at the end
@@Three_Sword_Hokage he also foolishly claims Anakin at full potential isn’t the strongest which I’m sorry I’m straight up saying is wrong. Luke and Leia may be descendants of the Chosen one but Anakin literally is the Chosen One himself so he’s always meant to be more powerful.
@@MCLegend13thank you. Nobody says ROTs Anakin is greater than those two. But Potential wise: He is the chosen one literally born from the force and shown to possess the power of the father( which is directly implied by the father bidding him to be his replacement).
Luke and Leia are his twin descendants, but naturally born. It would make sense that they would inherit a massive potential. However, they are not the chosen ones and also inherit something from their mother. So they would come close to their father, but the full potential chosen one would still be above them.
@@florianbarkowski6856Vader said Luke's Potential is possibly greater than Anakin.
Full Potential Luke Skywalker has never been seen either so please stop highballing him
Caedus doing so well against Jaina in their last fight was crazy. Dude had 1 arm, got stabbed in the gut before the fight began, and was constantly distracted by the imminent threat to Tenel Ka and Allana. He was so focused on saving tenel ka and allana that he even tried to leave without finishing the duel multiple times. Jaina was one of the most dangerous combatants alive and knew her brother like the back of her hand. Caedus still significantly injured her and Jaina even admitted he could’ve made her die alongside him if he hadn’t focused on warning Tenel Ka through the force.
I think Jaina was extremely overrated. She fought on par with a one-armed Jacen who had a fresh lightsaber stab to the gut, and even then Jacen wasn’t focused on killing her whereas Jaina was 100% focused on killing him.
If Jacen >= Jaina with all those factors, he is far above her if both are equally healthy. I’d say that Denning’s Jacen is in the same tier as Luke, but definitely below him.
Anakin Skywalker should be above Jaina and Cade based on his feats. His peak form as a combatant was during his storm of the Temple. Nick Gillard has rated that version of Vader as the best duelist in the saga (Den of Geeks 2011 interview). And even as post-Mustafar Vader, by the OT his power in the Force was greater than whatever Cade and Jaina accomplished.
I think Anakin Solo and Ben Skywalker were underrated. I see them as above peak Mara Jade by way of _Star by Star_ and _Apocalypse._
I’d say Tier S: Luke, Jacen; Tier A: Anakin Skywalker; Tier B: Cade Skywalker, Kol Skywalker, Jaina Solo; Tier C: Leia, Anakin Solo, Ben Skywalker; Tier D: Nat Skywalker
I agree with putting Jacen in the S Tier given how incredibly powerful he was, he rivaled Luke. But I also do think you're underselling Jaina as Jacen was always the superior force twin, plus he was very much immersed in the Dark Side of the Force to the point where he couldn't feel any pain. So even with his physical injuries from prior duels, he could still hold his own against anyone. Also taking into account what Jaina did other than dueling her brother Jacen you still have to put her in the A Tier, she was very much on a par with Anakin Skywalker.
If you're doing Vs videos I've got a few ideas.
Jaden Korr Vs Galen Marek?
Cade Skywalker might be my favorite of them as far as characters. Legacy comics were so good imo.
It's been a long time coming
Can’t wait for the Shmi skywalker number one placement 🫡
Any chance you could use Ben in a Versus Battle?
Also do you think Vestara should have remained a Jedi, I personally think so. Denning worst mistake in my opinion.
Also do you think Luke was a Guardian, Consular, or Sentinel?
Also thank you for this video! 🙏🏼
Im with you on that but i dont really like most of dennings work. Star by star is okay but the rest of his books dissapoint me compared to everyone else around him wether its allston travis or golden
@@jacobkarlin2946 I mostly agree, with the caveat that Denning can write kickass lightsaber duels. Caedus vs Luke in Inferno is probably my favorite duel in the whole franchise.
I think, had the EU continued, Vestara might have joined the One Sith.
And same, I'd love to see either Ben Skywalker or Anakin Solo used in matchup.
It wasn’t Denning’s call to have Vestara end the way she did. It was a editorial decision. (I dislike it as much as anyone).
Whaaaaaattttt.....? Vestara TRIED to be a Jedi for five minutes. And that all happened in Christie Golden's book. I don't agree with blaming him for everything they don't like in the Legacy Era.
I have a question in regards to who outside of the skywalkers could fight, beat them, or contend with them in the force
As the skywalkers are kinda blessed from birth with such potential
Who without said potential
Could reach their level through understanding training and deepening their connection to the force,
The whole point is to gauge how can a force user who isn’t a skywalker reach top tier
@EvanNOva95 would you say the tiers would be the same if we were looking at skill with the blade alone?
I would argue yes and that Luke's statement about Jaina is a statement that she can match but not defeat him. He would still be higher even at her full potential.
Suggestion: Desann vs Jerec
Also is Legacy Era still in print?
I think you should do a video on Drake Lo’gaan and the Evasive Action series he is from.
I feel like I am the only one to ever remember him.
I'd like to see a book recommendation video.
No Ben Solo or Rey? Dislike!
Jk. lol Very respectable list. Still, I feel people sell Roan Fel and the knights a bit short.
Great list. Personally i think Droo Rawk should be higher than Beru and Owen, she seems to be far more accostumed to combat (living in hiding and with casual shootouts with criminals like Black Sun) and has had some experience with Kiffar customs, which may indicate a superior array of self-defense tactics than anything a moisture farmer may gain with experience alone, but i would definetly have Padme and Han above her.
I also think Mara is more comparable to Jaina or Anakin rather than Nat.
26:17, I’d advise you not to put words in the mouths of the writers; it’s people like you that make them not want to keep answering, or at least give very vague answers to questions.
Ron did not say what you said he said. He answered yes firstly to the question confirming that Maul was brought back to kill and usurp Vader’s place as Sids’ apprentice, and then next answered yes to the question of if Maul was prepared and/or powered up to fight Vader. The author never specified that Maul was empowered. Nothing in the text that I can recall points to this. However, it IS far more likely that Maul was prepared for the fight.
So please, you’ve for sure improved over the years, but you can afford to do better. Be more careful with your interpretations of things.
. Prime NJO Mara Jade sits alongside with Anakin and Cade, and Vader to be put above Jaina and below Jacen/Caedus.
37:04 and 37:27, Evan puts prime Caedus above prime sidious. damn it, now we need a prime Sidious (dark empire) vs Caedus vs
Prime Krayt.
the ultimate sith lord match up.
Full Potential Anakin murders his entire Family Tree with zero difficulty, And you all know it
Full Potential Caedus S plus tier. Caedus had only begun his sith career. In a couple of years he would have surpassed Luke and become the most powerful being in the galaxy barring Abeloth.
20:00 And it seems like at least two other Sith helped Nihl take Kol down if you look at the next panel after Kol gets hit by lightning
15:37 I assume Nat Skywalker's Jedi Robes was based on Anakin's Knight/RotS outfit.
Mortis feat isn't that special. Mortis is a nexus point enhancing force abilities. Also the feat of controlling the son and daughter is something ONLY Anakin and the father could do because it was Anakin's destiny. I never look at the Mortis feat as anything but Anakin turning his back on what he was suppose to do. 🤷
I am curious if anakin was always destined to become Darth Vader or I'd he was given a different master would he have turned out differently
0:38 Wrong. It started in 1976, when the novelization for (What we now call) A New Hope came out 6 months before The Movie itself did in May, 1977. Just as "In a hole in the ground, there lived a Hobbit" in "The Hobbit" was the first line of Tolkien's works; "Another galaxy, another time" is the first line of all Star Wars media, NOT "A Long Time Ago, In A Galaxy Far, Far Away". While most people in that time would've seen the movie, before reading its then 6 month old novelization, what is popularly considered the start of Star Wars; that isn't the same as the technical start of Star Wars in its first piece of media outside of George Lucas' mind/imagination, as well as the earliest scripts for the movie (If they somehow came out before even the novelization did).
I just started watching the video, btw. Hope it's really good. Just wanted to make a little clarification right-off-the-bat (38 seconds into it, actually).
What are your thoughts on Luuke Skywalker
Luke’s clone from the Thrawn Triology.
I think at worst, the C tier you’ve layed out, and at best B tier. He did give a pre-Dark Empire Luke a good fight, that’s why I say B at best. Cause as we all know by now from Dark Empire. A Phresh with a ph, clone body Palps is the most powerful incarnation of himself. And given how those events are mere weeks if not months later from the events of the last book in the Thrawn tril, that means Luuke gave pretty much that version of Luke, a Luke capable of defeating that level of Sidious, one hell of a fight 🤺
C for low balling simply because of the hard truth that this Clone doesn’t really have feats outside of The Last Command.
We seriously need a “from weakest to greatest/ most powerful Sith Lord” list
Nah this guy is kind of biased against none Skywalker era sith lords he would make all the ancient sith lords look super weak

@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 there aren’t too many Sith Lords/ Emperors beyond Darth Sidious other then Caedus n Krayt n I don’t c Marka Ragnos, Freedon Nadd, Exar Kunn, or Darth Vitiate being exponentially better then Palpatine or Bane much less Darth Plagues
