point taken, he didn't take the blasts directly. With that said, all they managed to do was bury him under rubble and knock off his helmet so....

Yeah, I know. Pretty impressive.

I liked how he actually deflected a bolt from Rebels' tank.

IIRC, he also reflected a blast from a rebel ship as well....

1. This is indeed his fight to lose. I'll explain below.
2. Is this really a statement? Fine, I'll indulge you and prove that his durability is enough.
Has two AT-ST's fall on top of him. Gets up without even a single scratch.

Gets bashed by an adrenaline enhanced Rancor. Just fine:

Survives being on a whale ship as it literally crashes and explodes on impact with the Executor:

Survives the destruction of an entire weapons factory.

With that said, I'm not sure how Arkady is even going to hit him since he can do this:

And this:

And since he's fast enough to block all of these:

4. And yet in his most recent fight with Deadpool, he solidly lost and was even getting cut up by Wade's completely normal sword. Have you actually read anything with Omega Red in it recently? He's tough, but not nearly what you're making him out to be.
5. Force choke is clearly one of his go to methods for killing.

Matter of fact, choking people or snapping their necks is what he does almost every time. This is immediately after taking AT-AT fire btw:

6. How will the coils reach him if Vader holds him a safe distance away? Better yet, how will the coils hit the guy that essentially was first holding off

And then beating an enhanced version of Grievous:

And then having the upper hand even when he gets jumped:

4) Deadpool fought a clone from Remender's UXF. The real OR has been revived in X-Men: Gold series... which was released like a month ago.

Disney's new canon (as Galan nicely elaborated on, 2nd page) and KMC full capacity rule pretty much guarantees Vader will mow down most metas in a message board setting, though. At least those below the herald tier.

^^^I like Vader as able to be used outside the movie forum.
He's a dominant opponent.

honest question, does it matter that much if it was a clone? Deadpool still showed the reactionary speed needed to hold his own and I personally wouldn't put him on Vader's level speed (or skill) wise. Not to mention that Wade's weapons, armor, and powers aren't on Vader's level....

Laura Kinney is a clone of Wolverine.

Yes, it does matter a lot... and you know it.

Wolverine's literally one-shotted that clone:

Phil Noto. Definitely not his best work... and he wasn't just a fill-in, unfortunately 😘

Darth Vader comic was awesome. I liked the investigator, thought Vader letting him do what he felt he had to do was a waste.

And not that it matters much in *this* particular match, but Vader using the Force to override Cylo's technopathy(which had deactivated his ENTIRE suit, mind you) was just f*cking beastly, imo. The full scene beautifully depicts how much pain/hate/anger Vader was burdened with, and how he could tap/harness it to augment the shit out of his powers at any given time:
