Top 5 Prodigies

Who would you say are the top 5 prodigies, basically who are the top 5 force users with the most potential, disregarding external factors like being able to gain all of the sith/holocrons etc.

e.g I would place Anakin on the list as at the age of 23 he is already one of the most powerful Jedi of all time.

Oh and of course you don't have to do top 5, you can just do however many you desire.

Canon or legends?

Either works as long as you specify.

But as for the list-
1. Skywalker bloodline (eg. Anakin, Luke, Leia, and Ben.)
2. Palpatine bloodline (eg. Sheev and Rey.)

After that it's harder to say. I probably wouldn't even put Yoda on my list because the guy had 800+ years of Jedi training under his belt and still couldn't defeat Sidious. So how much of a "prodigy" was he really? Give most other Jedi that long to increase their power and they'd be god-tier.

Anakin is 1st by far in either canon or legends if we talk about potential. Full potential Anakin would have been as powerfull as the Father of Mortis

In Legends yeah. I think in canon he was only stated to be one of the finest in the PT Order.

Consider that Yoda’s species ages differently. When they are fifty they are still a baby. I think that 900 years for some like Yoda=90 years more or less for a human

But like you said: Yoda still had the highest midi-chlorian count among the Jedi until Anakin entered the fray, so he was still a 'prodigy' from that perspective.

There is a limit to how powerful you can become. Eventually, Yoda's growth would have plateaued.

Ahsoka (would have been one of the youngest jedi knights we know of)

Mace (youngest jedi master we know of?)

Surely they're both canon prodigies

Yoda literally had the highest mediclorian count in the order pre anakin, so he's a confirmed prodigee.

Anakin's a obvious prodigee.

Mace is probablt a prodigee given his contention with sidious

Ahsoka is definitely a prodigee given her ability to contend with maul at 16.

Luke(duh)

Rey(duh)

Kylo (duh)

Wasn’t maul supposed to have a lot of potential too?

Ezra?

I think Ezra's potential was pretty massive, yeah.

Whie malreaux and Scout?
Two new jedi padawans during ROTS seemed to be pretty highly regarded - particularly Whie

Ferus Olin?

Kyp Durron and Anakin Solo are contenders.
