My only guess is they don't want to spoil Rebel's plans for what happens to them.

What happens to them? If they're a group, means there can be more than just 1 or 2 doing things at a time.

No idea. I'm just guessing that perhaps Rebels plans on having Inquisitors as extinct as the Jedi by the time the show ends.

Or perhaps it's just lazy writing and trying to get more readers by showing "Look Luke and Vader fought another time! "

That would be kinda lame tbh. :/

Plus I don't see how they could be extinct since we don't even know the numbers and it's not like Sidious or Vader can't just find more.

But that would be really lame, cause I wanna see more of em and hopefully in this new canon their abilities become more fleshed out, cause I'm not really convinced on the Rebels portrayal of the Inquisitors. They just seem so weak compared to their Legends counterparts...

Although yes this new canon just lifted off, so there's still a lot more to show. But still.

The Inquisitors at this point can't be gone back to over and over again. They will quickly lose their luster.

Hmm...there is a point, although if Rebels is just gonna throw out Inquisitors each time they are defeated well. /Shrug

Though this new EU needs to show more abilities for them and the like, cause right now I'm not feeling them in their portrayal in Rebels.

No. The last thing Star Wars needs is another dick measuring contest. One need only look at TOR/Legacy/FotJ to see that.

Seems kinda exaggerating don'tcha think? It's not like that won't happen anyway though.

Plus what they have shown thus far, not really convinced these guys are able to handle surviving Jedi which is their job description. Not saying they gotta show anything OMG though.

Uh, no, not at all. And no it doesn't have to happen. This started because Lucas didn't keep a hamper on what happened in the EU.

And Jedi? Not nearly as impressive as you're trying to pretend they are. AotC showed Jedi being slaughtered by the hundreds.

Via overwhelming numbers against them and sonic weaponry.

Sure it doesn't have to happen, but it will you know, just wait.

Plus I don't really get how, the GE would have all the knowledge of Saber fighting and Force Knowledge...yet these Inquisitors in canon merely just show some TK?

Legends Inquisitors you at least had Inquisitors using Force Lighting/Barrier and a few other neat little things.

Agreed. The Inqusitors certainly seem far more impressive than most of the Jedi we see in the films

Well we don't really see many Jedi. 😛

Other than Anakin, Windu, Yoda and Obi-Wan of course. Well depth wise anyway.

We saw some in action in TCW, but nothing that impressive tbh. The 2 Inquisitors grabbing that shuttle and stopping it from flying off was better than anything I remember your random Jedi ever doing in canon.

And like Freshest said, we do see them go down quite easily against overwhelming numbers in AOTC.

Well I was going per movie wise, since Fresh mentioned it and yeah they were done in by overwhelming numbers but that's not surprising as I'm sure a vast overwhelming force would do that to a bunch of anyone anyway, not like the Inquisitors just overwhelm with numbers so kinda moot.

I know, but we never really saw what they could do. Like how many opponents could they handle firing at them? And nothing overly impressive in terms of TK either.

But I suppose we don't know. Vos for instance turned out to be a powerhouse in Canon. Who would have thought?

Pretty sure the only standard Jedi we really see fight in TCW are Ima Gun Di, Halsey and his Padawan, all of whom are killed in pretty extenuating circumstances that I see little reason to believe the Inquisitors would fare much better in. Then there is the fact that their Grand Inquisitor was defeated by a self-trained Jedi Knight with above-average ability, and the probability that they will be creamed by Ahsoka Tano.

I expect their flashy laser swords would give them the edge against the mid/lower denominators in the Jedi Order but anything above that and I wouldn't fancy their chances.

Exactly. So we've not really seen what they're capable of, but we have seen what Inquisitors can do.

Hence Inquisitors at least seem more impressive than your typical Knight for now.

Meh, I still feel the Kanan being superior to their Grand Inquisitor is grounds for rating them pretty low.

Though again I think their main advantage is their unorthodox equipment and probably anti-Jedi knowledge.

Dunno since Filoni stated the best Inquisitor is just a bit below Ventress level. So perhaps Kanan is just that powerful.

But perhaps GI isn't the most powerful Inquisitor. So will see how Kanan fairs against these new Inquisitors.

The GI....just below Ventress level?....Really?..

Sure as heck didn't seem like it. I guess I would believe it if we have more than just his fights with Kanan, but until then I have a hard time believing anything Dave says about the GE and the people in it.
