AotC Anakin vs RotJ Luke

No tapping into that dark side. Fights where Dooku kicked Obi Wan and Anakins *** in AotC.

Anakin....form baseball bat wont stack up against Anakin.

Luke did pretty well in mirroring Vader's moves in ESB. I know Vader wasn't trying to kill him, but still...

i say AOTC Anakin takes it. the lightsaber sequences in the new star wars movies were much more complex.

Do you mean the choreographing or the fighting techniques of the PT Jedi?

Anakin, easily. He has better precision, better technique, he's faster, stronger, and he's stronger with the force.

Luke wins. He defeated Boba fett easily, Anakin would have a hard time defeating him. He defeated Vader, even though Vader wasn't trying to hurt him that's still better than Anakin could do, Luke took out all of Jabba's thugs at once and he even attacked Black Sun HQ and survived. He can even levitate hismelf using the Force, and is far smarter than Anakin. What did Anakin do? get pwnd by Dooku? No, Luke wins.

Luke beat Vader in ROTJ though using the Dark Side. This fight is no tapping into the Dark Side.

😉

I would say Anakin wins. He's better at dueling and is stronger w/ the force.

ROTJ Luke I would say is somewhere between Maul and Qui-Gon Jinn, more closer to Maul. I would say with some difficulty provided by Skywalker that he takes this fight.

Even before he used the Dark Side he was winning (remember him kicking Vader down the stairs?).

Yup, and I don't remember if it was a comic or the novelisation that stated, "unlike the fight in the cloud city, this was a battle between EQUALS".

True, but Luke's not on Vader's level. However, he's not far off, probably close to Maul. I would say he's around Plo Koon's level.

Luke takes this. He's rather good by ROTJ. I can definately see him downing Anakin. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he could take Obi-wan at this point.

Without speaking blasphemy, AotC Obi-Wan > AotC Anakin? Anakin sure as hell performed much better against Dooku, overall, than Obi-Wan.

You mean getting blasted into a wall in the first second of the fight? Or was it when he lost his second saber, then his arm? I dunno, I thought Obi-Wan fared much better in the end.

Luke beat Vader by tappiung into the Dark Side. That is forbidden in this thread, and RotJ Luke would not have beaten Dooku. RotJ Luke is still inferior to AotC Obi Wan.

I say ROTJ Luke beats Anakin. He was able to defeat several hired killers from the black sun, defeat a majority of Jabba's personal guards singlehandedly, and even gain the upperhand against Darth Vader without tapping into the darkside (noticed by how he kicks Vader down the flight of stairs.) His combat abilities by this point are rather formidable.

Given all this, I haven't seen anything in AOTC that puts Anakin on Luke's level.

Somebody took his 'act-like-an-ass' pills this morning. But, hey. Got no problem treating you like an idiot, too.

Or... you could watch the fight. He lasted longer against Dooku than Obi-Wan did. Dooku completely toyed with Obi-Wan without any difficulty.

The novelization even states that Anakin wasn't beaten so easily the second time around, which is how the databank words it, exactly.
