Is Disney Star Wars Really Debatable?

Disney doesn't seem to care about power-levels of characters. Everything is inconsistent with seemingly powerful characters failing while padawans pull off incredible feats.

The Disney canon seems to be putting an emphasis on story-telling and "wild-card" advantages to win a fight over pure technical rankings like in the EU.


Is SW debating less feasible with the new canon?

Star Wars has never given a shit about power levels. Anyone who thinks that the writers have ever put more thought into power level beyond "what would work for this plot" is deluding themselves.

Mind for examples? I mean granted there is probably some wonky things going on with certain characters, but was it any different before?

Really so you think a Yoda or mace is as weak as say a grievous or padawon...yeahhhhh you’re not the dumb one...

How does Luke being such a weakling that he loses to Kylo and Rey make sense? How does a supposed Grandmaster losing to an untrained girl make sense. Rey also has no training yet she’s doing all this crap.

Vader is by far more powerful then any of these characters except Snoke meaning Luke never advanced in the force.

Then you get shit like them saying maul was older so he was weaker....oh ok, what’s age have to do with anything?

But we’re deluded not you 👌

It's odd to me that people actually think Legends was *more* consistent overall than Disney canon where PLs are concerned.

Inconsistency has ALWAYS run rampant in this franchise... Disney certainly hasn't been some huge exception, lol.

It runs in just about any big franchise.
