    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    So as expected, you're pulling on feats he may not be able to replicate because he's on top of a force nexus and thus powered up while doing so. I kinda figured you'd go for that. 'Course since Han had no problem ambushing him in the Battle of Yavin, so we know sneaking up on Vader doesn't...

    Well yeah, of course you need to prove they're good. That's what proving your points is, supplying proof of your position. I mean, self-evidently there's some reason he didn't plow through Red and Gold squadrons at Yavin the way he did the pilots in that comic. One obvious answer, especially...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    No, we know it happened shortly after the Death Star was destroyed because it's listed as happening 0ABY, aka the same year the Death Star was destroyed. Given that Vader did a ton of other stuff in 0ABY after this, this had to be very close to right after Yavin...

    Did you actually watch the video I linked? Her growling out that she would avenge her master and destroy Vader, followed by charging him, throwing him around, and driving him back over and over with relentless attacks? That's not a strategy of holding him off and that's not what the creators...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    'Kay, and how good were those pilots? You need to establish that they're worth a fig before beating them actually means anything. Especially this specific comic where it took place almost immediately after Yavin where the Rebels lost every pilot except Luke, Wedge, and Keyan Farlander, so...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    "Vader was reluctant" is something you made up. "Ahsoka was badass and gave him a brutal fight where she split his face open even though they were fighting on a Dark Side Nexus" is canon and based on the visuals and the statements of the creators. Ezra lasts 40 freakin' seconds and he's a...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    The creators do not share your optimistic appraisal of the situation. Ahsoka is not a pushover to Vader. -Dave Filoni "Ahsoka will handle some business." "Don't think Ahsoka's gonna get owned. Yeah, Ahsoka's, I would say like top 3/4, as far as fighting combat skills, Jedi of all time."...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    Just like Jango was thrown by Obi-Wan, and Grievous was halted by hundreds of Jedi including Anakin himself? Just like Cad Bane's head was casually twisted? Just like the Jedi used a barrier to protect themselves in the Geonosis arena? Just like Vader grabbed the Falcon and kept it from...

    Iron Man can pick up a 60 ton tank, fly at supersonic speeds, can take a direct hit from tank's main gun and walk away from it (and multiple hits from SAMs), moves and reacts faster than we see Vader doing, and has more missiles and beam weapons than the entire 501st. What happened when he...

    No, Vader's no pushover but his performance is visibly below the kind of stuff the Avengers and Justice League fight. Throwing in Obi-Wan and Master Chief on top of that pushes it over what I perceive he could win against.

    Forty-Something Vader hasn't faced a peer opponent in decades, which is my personal headcanon of why Ahsoka was able to inflict so much damage to him. He has indeed killed a number of Padawans but that's not a feat to respect and slaughtering rooms of children is likely a good reason his body...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    No, but he did lose to Obi-Wan rather definitively and barely managed to beat Ahsoka in rebels so he's not Superman to their Jimmy Olsen, he's an Olympic athlete silver medalist to their bronze medalist. Meanwhile Cap, Master Chief, and Batman are accustomed to fighting gold medalists like...

    If that was true Grievous wouldn't have a massive collection of lightsabers from the Jedi he killed and Jango Fett wouldn't have walked away from Kamino. Plenty of force users have been killed by ordinary mortals and those three are well beyond normal mortals.

    Cap's more likely to use his shield to block lightsaber strikes and then hit Vader in the face with it. In this scenario he's perfectly aware of what Vader can do given he's had time to discuss it with Obi-Wan. Additionally I question how much concentration Vader has available. If he's...

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    I wouldn't bet on Vader winning anyway if he has to fight Obi-Wan Kenobi, Master Chief, Captain America, and Batman, especially when the four of them have had time to discuss Vader's abilities and come up with a plan. Even sequentially that's a mean gauntlet for him to survive.

    That's circular logic. You're claiming the AI can't hack computers, and as proof claiming that the computers the AI hacked have bad security. The reason you know the computers had bad security was because an AI was able to hack them.

    Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

    The Death Star probably never makes it to Yavin. Captain America and Master Chief are going to be able to kill an almost arbitrarily high number of Stormtroopers given how the terrain can constrain their numbers. The question is going to be if they get sleep deprived before the Death Star runs...
