Darth Sidious (Palpatine) vs Snape
The final battle between Star Wars mythos and the Harry Potter series. Battle site is the same (streets of London) only this time it is night. Sidious gets his lightsaber and the dark side of the Force. Snape has his wand and magic. Both parties have little knowledge of each others powers. Remember, Sidious is the ultimate Master of the dark side of the Force. Can Snape beat a Master of the dark side?
If this is the best that Sidious can do:
He's done. It takes a second for the force lightning to reach Yoda, it's nowhere instantaneous. Apparition is instantaneous.
BTW: Where was Yoda's precog? As the force lightning hits him, he actually looked surprised.
OK boys and girls, prepare to be raped.
Here is a scene from THBP:
Harry is chasing Snape after Snape killed Dumbledore. At :15, Harry casts Incarcerous. Snape blocks it.
At :18, Bellatrix casts a non verbal spell that hits Harry instantly.
At :43, Harry casts sectumsempra at Snape. Snape turns, blocks the scetumsempra, and casts a non verbal spell back at Harry, knocking Harry on his back. This all happened in about one second. Snape's back was turned, Harry cast the spell, it reached Snape, Snape turns to face Harry, blocks the spell, AND cast a spell back at Harry. All in less than a second. And no, Snape did not rebound the sectumsempra back at Harry. How do we know this? Because Harry was not sliced to ribbons. Snape's reaction time here is greater than any Jedi. All 4 spells in the video travel at least as fast, probably faster than blaster bolts.
Precog was fine during ROTS. What was affected was the Jedi ability to see brief glimpses of the future, as Luke did in ESB. Battle precog was faulty at best.
Verdict? Wizards>>>>>>>>>>>>Jedi, all day, every day, without fail.
Any more questions? I'll copy/paste this into the Snape/Sidious thread.
You do know that force users continually try to block each others precog during combat, right?
At least, im pretty sure they do, been a while since i read that book (yes, i know it would be considered useless here, but it was an interesting tidbit nonetheless, kinda irrelevant though)
Thats why alot of jedi were killed in a suprise shot from Sith Lords.....
To quote Mace, "I think its time we informed the Senate our ability to use the Force has diminished"
Precog is just a short glimpse of the immediate future, that was why Yoda was suprised, because the imbalance (Sidious) was right in front of him blocking his views of the future
And Sideous has Force-precog along with superior reaction-time, so just like Vader and Yoda, he'll be one step ahead of the wizard.
Yet another repeat thread.

Well, since Snape apparated in TDH, he can now apparate in any and all vs. threads.
Not that it stopped you from creaming "apparate! apparate! apparate!" before that film.
Originally posted by RobtardSee, Sidious doesn't HAVE superior reaction time, the vid I posted proves that Snape is faster.

Accept it. Stop posting your opinion and accept it.

Dude's one of the most powerful Force-users in SW; if weaker Jedi/Sith have the ability to block blaster-fire, his reflexes are not going to be lesser and they'll be well above and beyond a normal human's.
This isn't my opinion, Force-users have these abilities, they're fast, very fast, it's shown/stated in the films.
Originally posted by RobtardSee, you have to watch the vid I posted. Watch Snape.

Point A: Harry cast sectumsempra.
Point B: Snape turns, blocks the spell, and returns one in one swift motion.
Point C: The spell hit Harry and knocked him on his ass.
ALL in less than one second. That's faster than any Jedi/Sith reaction time feat, hands down. Snape is faster.
Originally posted by RobtardMissing the point, dude. The vid is about Snape's speed/reaction time. Post a vid of a Jedi/Sith doing what Snape did in under a second.
Harry Potter is a regular human too, bro; he's not Mr. Speedblitz.Force-precog, this is something you have yet to get around, despite your attempts to try to exclude it and whatnot.
You can't.
Snape has faster reaction time.
Moving on.
Force precog, eh? The force precog that failed more times than I count through six movies? Yeah.....Failed, just like your argument. Force precog was working in Ep. 1-3, it was Jedi FORESIGHT that Sidious was mucking with.
Here, I'll say it again, slower this time:

You're missing the point, Jedi/Sith are a lot faster than regular humans. <--- basic SW knowledge, that.
Yeah, covered that. Force-precog fails when it's overwhelmed, eg many shots coming in at once. It doesn't fail from one opponent, let a lone a guy with normal human speeds.
