ROTJ Luke Gauntlet

ROTJ Luke goes through the gauntlet.
Canon only.

1. Ahsoka Tano
2. Ben Kenobi
3. Count Dooku
4. Anakin Skywalker
5. Mace Windu

He, of course, heals after every round.

He can clear if it's canon. Anakin and Mace should be great fights and Luke might lose because of lack of experience.

Gets to at least #5. Not entirely sure if he can beat Mace.

I dont see why Mace would beat him if he gets past Anakin.

But thats just me.

Also feel Luke whose just become a Jedi with 4 years of mostly self training, beating Anakin who had 10years of training under a Jedi plus 3 more years of mastering his abilities post becoming a Jedi, would make little/no sense.

Stops between 2 and 5. He could lose to any of them, really

Really depends how you perceive his fight with Vader.

Yeah, seems odd to me how everyone is ranking Windu definitively above Anakin and Dooku.

It's hard to tell where Luke is in rotj if this is canon. All we really have to go off is his fight with Vader. We know Vader was super conflicted in his fight with his son and he wasn't trying to kill him... Had they both been out for blood and Luke beat him, I'd say Luke clears soundly.

"Always fueled by hatred, he now gathers additional strength from fear but it is not enough."

I think this is from Beware of the Dark Side [2017] it implies that Vader is at least 100%. Luke still has his dark side amp though, so it depends on how significant you think the amp is.

Don't think there's anything in canon that proves Anakin can fight Sidious level opponents. It doesn't really make much sense to me that Anakin would be weaker than Luke, but the evidence points to Luke being stronger, imo.

Canon Vader is a monster and if we scale Luke off him he should be able to clear. Now, Vader was conflicted as we know, but lets not forget that Luke lowered his defenses twice in the ROTJ fight and Vader attacked him both times. He was still lethal. One wrong move and Luke would have been dead.

He was conflicted. But even without that, he clearly wasnt going for the kill the way he was against say Ben Kenobi.

So we have nothing to compare Lukes TK to Vaders tbh. It was a Saber only fight where they are both trying to convert each other to their side, not ragdoll each other.

Jedi vs. Sith (2016) states:

"Father and son were now equally strong with the Force, and equally skilled with their lightsabers."

Luke and Vader not trying to kill each other doesn't change the fact that they were intended to be equals(and that was before Luke tapped into the dark side.)

Oh snap! That about seals the deal. Luke clears.

Luke’s learning curve is insane to be Vader level after only a few years of training

He swung at him while Luke's saber was of. Twice. You can't honestly say he wasn't trying. And Luke wasn't going all out on Vader either. Not until Vader threatened Leia.

No, but now we have pre-ESB Luke shaking Star Destroyers and Luke shortly after ROTJ bringing down Star Destroyers in the battle of Jakku. His TK is implied to be pretty monstrous.

That settles that then.
