Anakin Solo's potential

It's stated that his potential was greater than both his siblings.

In your opinion, how powerful would Anakin have become had he lived longer and reached his full potential? Who would he compare to?

Discuss.

Isn't there a statement saying he would've been the new Luke?

I don't know much about Anakin, tbh. That's why I was curious.

He's also stated to be the strongest of the Solo kids /shrug

Self admitted ignorance. 😂

Come to troll my thread? Welcome. 🙂

Btw, there's a lot more shame in pretending to be knowledgeable than to admit ignorance. 🙂 🙂

So a vague trollish answer. This is why no one takes you seriously.

Lmao.

Do you have the quote that says he'd be as good as Luke?

Either you're quoting the wrong person or you think I have the quote.

I don't unfortunately that said. The Jedi Master Irkit considered Child Anakin to be above him and he displayed a great deal of talent with Telekinesis as a child. Far from that I can't say I've seen this Anakin being the new Luke quote.

Corran Horn: "You may not know it, but all of the younger Jedi and a lot of the older ones look up to you. The buzz is you're the next Luke Skywalker, at the very least."

Him being "the new Luke" was just a rumor, not a fact:

"You may not know it, but all of the younger Jedi and a lot of the older ones look up to you. The buzz is you're the next Luke Skywalker."

EDIT: Ninja'd

So his potential has not really been established.

IIRC, it was stated in the paperback edition of The Unifying Force by the writers of the series, that Anakin was meant to be as great, if not greater than Luke, but the idea was scrapped because of the prequels, and Lucas not wanting Anakin Solo to rip off the Chosen One that is Anakin Skywalker.

Nexus of the force
Interesting

But yeah if he's stronger than his siblings then we could look at Jacen's potential and scale it up a notch I guess?

Nexus of the Force? What does that even mean?

Yeah, we know he'd at least be more powerful than peak Darth Caedus, which is pretty good. Still, any speculations as to where exactly would he rank when compared to the most powerful?

Maybe it depends on how many tiers above Caedus you think Luke is.
