Holy crap! Forgot about him,

He was amped tho. But def him and Metroman compete for to spot.

Appeal to majority.

Just answering the "we" thing

Cherry-picking the best feats is just as stupid as cherry-picking the lowest feats

Well you know, if the feats happen several times throughout the series, then it's kind of dishonest to dismiss them as outliers

I mean if I really wanted to "cheery pick the top end feats" I could have said they were relativistic because they react to and outmaneuver droid fighters blah blah blah statements from ROTS novelisation

EDIT: How fast is Russell anyhow?

If you were to dig into the EU the Star Wars characters would indeed be much faster than I placed Obi.

But this isn't the EU board is it?

Also, the Obi feat which I assume you are referencing from the novelization isn't nearly as impressive as it has been wanked to, IIRC. 👆

edit: now that you mention it, I put Russel too high.

I actually meant statements about droid starfighters having near light speed reactions and processing capacity and Jedi being able to outmaneuver them

Hey KingD19, I think you're cool. Sort of like me.

MOS Superman has zero feats of combat superspeed, the best he has is throwing punches while flying fast, those aren't the same thing.

Combat superspeed would allow people to do things like read books while the world is frozen, walk around and move bullets, or just cut bullets in half.

If it's just combat speed then...

Quicksilver
Metro Man
Russell Edgington
Matrix Agents
MOS
Obi Wan

I'm going to have to rewatch KungFu hustle and Super ex GF to comment on the Beast and G Girl.

Have you seen Mega Mind? There's no way Quicksilver is above Metro Man.

Metroman is way faster than Quicksilver. He seems to dick around town for hours and does things like read a book, rethink his life, and eat some food yet the time-frame is actually so small that he returns to the deathtrap and Megamind (who was watching him at the time) never realizes that Metroman left.

Also he walked everywhere and was so fast that he made rainbows because the light didn't know how to interact with his body or something.

Metroman was walking in Superspeed froze time to a stop.

How on earth is QS faster dude?

Sorry my bad. For some reason I was thinking about Meteor Man. Agreed with everyone, Metro man over Quicksilver.

Metroman had basically the same showing. The world froze from his POV while he was moving.

He couldn't fight while flying hundreds or thousands of times faster than the speed of sound without reaction-time on that level.

Do not respond to me with this garbage again. 👇

Throwing punches while flying fast isn't combat superspeed.
