Obviously doesn't pass!!!!! Can't decide i don't think he would do good because of his lack of force powers! 1. might be tough for him and magnadroids i think he might lose. If not then pong krell owns him.

10 droidekas!? You know that most jedi surrender when they're surrounded by around 3 to 5 of them.

Realistically, he's not gonna pass any wave.

You think fighting off five Jedi is easier than fighting off ten droids? If you're right, Grievous is not as strong as I thought.

I could be wrong. But if Grevious is surrounded, he could only attack a certain amount, while the other droidekas shoot him in the back.

I think it depends where the droidekas are situated.

Are Droideikas really that deadly? Grievous is a master strategist. He could aim for their weak points. You're also assuming these are the ones with shields.

Grevious doesn't have any ability to use the Force to guide his sabers. His strikes are fast but even he can't put up a shield capable of deflecting every bolt from 10.

Grievous tanked a Magnaguards staff in ROTS and force pushes in CW, which are just as deadly if not more so than bolts. Besides, Grievous is fast enough to prevent being surrounded.

I get the impression that they're deadly because in TPM only a couple of them show up against Qui Gon and Obi Wan, and both stopped what they were doing and ran.

True, but these guys aren't the strongest Jedi ever. Later in the clone wars, Jedi are owning these guys. Kenobi once took down three or four in a stomp with his saber.

That's true, I remember that happening in one of the episodes. But ten of these guys makes it more difficult. I guess if Grevious is in the right frame of mind, he could possibly pass this wave.

I was thinking of pre GL Greivous when making this poll. I figured that since Jedi like Shaak Ti could fend off armies of droids or Magnaguards in sabers, Grievous would too.

If he can get among them, he can slice them up, but if they roll to a good firing position, a bunch at once is very hard for him, that's a lot of firepower.

The Magnaguard are actually easier to an extent- that's melee combat, and that he can handle. Especially since he personally programmed them. Still, dozens is too much.

Shaak Ti could take them in raw sabers.

She didn't take down dozens. She took down about one dozen and the rest fell back.

With the benefit of the Force, which again Grevious doesn't have. You're talking about twenty medium power cannons firing at him at once from multiple angles with nothing but his eyes to guide his sabers while possibly surrounded. He dies.

I have no idea what your comment earlier about him tanking a pike earlier has to do withhim being blasted by multiple bolts at one time.

1. Grievous wins
2. Ehh probably Grievous given that he trained them.
3. Grievous
4. Tough one...probably Grievous
5. Master Plo in a hard fight.
6. Uhhh...maybe Savage...not sure. Both defeated Adi Gallia comfortably.
7. Grievous
