The thing with Anakin's emotional instability is that it's a coin flip. Against Dooku it gave him what he needed, with Obi it cost him

[@____.__9625]

[@realdude6145]

You do know that Arcann was just as emotionally unstable correct? if not worse than Anakin, That alone made him weaker than Thexan the only reason he killed him is because Thexan unlike his father didn’t believe in killing his own blood, Darth Vitiate literally bodied his own father, he comes from a different background than the twins Arcann also after coming out of his rage state seemed as if he didn’t want to kill Thexan.

The dueling edge should go to Anakin and whilst Anakin has greater raw force power Arcann should take the edge as a developed combative force wielder

And anakin would win all out

[@kirillzakharov7336]

@@ggamesgarner8027 no his dueling edge is very slight, the gap between theiir martial skills is FAR smaller than their gap as Force wielders. Aracann's ability to wield Force lightning combined with pyrokinesis, and his telekinesis, yeah. Arcann will win

[@xrstevenson]

@@kirillzakharov7336 not to mention hard-core training from before being able to walk? Yeah seriously people overestimate Anakin's abilities

[@docomega7862]

@@xrstevenson And another thing people always seem to fmrget is experience. Arcann was trained from his birth and fought all his life against both sith and jedi. While anakin despite having the greatest potential of all only fought serioisly during the three years of the clone wars against mostly droids. So arcann would have faced against much more powerful opponents with different fighting styles and yet defeated all of them. Experience is as important as potential to me because having a grdat potential doesn't mean that you will realize it while having a great experience makes you a true master of combat. And it is shown to be true at multiple occasions. Anakin vs dooku in episode 2, yoda vs dooku in dpisode 2, and anakin vs obi wan

[@RAdam-dr3nm]

There are multiple points, I didnt come to the same conclusion. First, I wouldn't say Anakin's Rage must be a disadvantage to him. Arcann only fought against calm jedi or furious sith. A high emotional jedi on the edge of the dark side would be new for him and could overwhelme or at least suprise him. In terms of force abilities, I don't agree with your definition of raw power to 100%. Of course Anakin has the higher Mediclorian-Count, but his force powers are uncatalyzed, while Arcann studied years about all aspects of the force. Not to forget, that his father knew more about the force and it's rituals than evan Traya, Revan, Freedon Nadd, Plaqueis and Sidious. I think you can come to different conclusions by considering the same aspects. And that is what makes this battle so interesting. Excuse my bad english, please. I'm from germany Great Video

Awesome match up with grandfather (Anakin Skywalker) and Arcan. Knowing that swtor goes way back in the day before the time of my family, I got a bad feeling about this.

[@ethanmaldonado4017]

George Lucas Canon Statements would have Prime Anakin (which is Knightfall Vader) contemporaries with Mace, Yoda, and Sidious in ROTS. That easily puts him above Arcann, who arguably had the lowest potential in his family, (early Thexan being above early Arcann, and Vaylin being outright chained). Raw power alone, Anakin wins solidly. You can make an argument for Arcann having to scale towards The Outlander, but the Outlander would be on the same tier as Vaylin Unchained, which would just slap Arcann Redeemed.

What’s the video

[@dalehyde9707]

post it dude!!

[@tuckercoolman5390]

One thing I disagree with is your force assessment about Anakin. Yes Anakin was the chosen one and the highest force POTENTIAL however force potential doesn’t equal force POWER. So even though his potential was greater than Arcann’s, as they stood in this video Arcann was definitely the superior force wielder. Aside from that great video.

[@Redoren966]

Arcann has no feats to suggest that he is

[@yungace1820]

Anakin has overpowered Dooku in the Force, someone who rivals Yoda ( a debatable topic), he absolutely destroys Arcann force-wise.

I think you underestimate Anakin's skill and power. This isn't as close as something like Anakin Vs Bane.

[@nathanmontgomery1516]

bTw-. Nah I feel like it’s the other way around people are saying arcann is as powerful as sidious which is retarded, even if you don’t agree he is the most powerful sith he is definitely above arcann who really has no impressive feats. I mean can arcann create a black hole or fool all the Jedi council with his force powers?

[@joestat2452]

Anakin v malgus is a must!!

[@Darthpsychonis]

It is important to note where Anakin is in his mindset during the times his rage becomes a hindrance. Against Obi-wan he had already joined the Sith as Darth Vader and had begun to fully embraced the Dark Side. The idea of Padme turning against him had loosened to cork on his anger, fear, and paranoia which made him reckless. However, Anakin against Count Dooku is a different beast. While he does begin to tap the into the Dark Side he is not blinded by it and is able to dominate Tyranus in the later portion of the fight. While he can loose his temper from time to time he is only truly unstable when the people he cares about are brought into the matter. Otherwise, he is more or less in control most of the time with the occasions he does give into his anger being a boon so long as he does not go overboard. Anyway great video. I was hoping someone would eventually pit these two against each other.

[@luizigorribeirogiorgi9823]

Nice video!! Both are legends!!! But I also would give extra points to Anakin for a simple fact that he was able to hold The Ones (The Spirits) on the planet Mortis making they kneel. That was great show of power. I also think that Anakin could be the stronger Sith/Jedi ever if he choose improve himself beyond his limits taking Sidious place instead join the force after killed the emperor.

[@ali_gamz4925]

THis is one of my favorites

[@tuckercoolman5390]

Great video! One thing I didn’t agree with however is your comment about Anakin’s force abilities. Though he does have the highest force potential, that does not mean he is the most powerful. He never reached his full potential therefore he isn’t the most powerful force wielder.

[@kylemc2290]

I'd have given Anakin the martial advantage, and arcann the force edge. Other than that, I agree completely with this video.

[@dazdavis7896]

How on earth would you give “arcann” the force edge against the most powerful Jedi of all time. DIRECTLY stated as such multiple times. He would smoke ARcAnN. He gets the dueling advantage by FAR, he’s also DIRECTLY stated as the greater swordsman in galactic history. “He’s unbeatable, and he knows it”.. “You have done well, Lord Vader. You skills are unmatched by any Sith before you”.. “he is the best there is, and he’s still getting better”…. And then direct statements from Lucas, Nick Gillard, and countless other Lucasfilm employees that ALL these versus series kids seem to just blatantly purposely ignore in place of their OWN headcanon and actually expect to be taken seriously. It’s hilarious.. Anakin/Pre-suit Vader gets every edge there is against “arcann” , it’s not even a debate. He’d completely dogwalk him.

[@kylemc2290]

Don’t really know what I said four years back to prompt as lengthy a response, but I meant that I’d give Arcann the force edge due to the variety and esoteric nature of his force abilities. Anakin’s got raw power, but he doesn’t generally break it out in a fight as his go-to method-and even then he’s using the standard set of powers used by most guardians. He didn’t really come into his own with using his force abilities until after he became Vader-which is why I’d give Arcann the Force edge, but even then Anakin would still pull out the win.

[@dazdavis7896]

@@kylemc2290 You commented on a KZbin video it’s there permanently, I hadn’t watched this one before, so I’m just now seeing your comment, when it was left is irrelevant…. Anyways, no he didn’t. His greatest force feats all come from before he was anointed Darth Vader. I mean sure his greatest combat feats period come from after being anointed Vader and fully embracing the Darkside, like taking down the Entire Jedi Order in one fell swoop. But prior to him fully embracing the Darkside and becoming Vader, he already had PLENTY of insane showings dude what are you talking about. Using force fire (or “pyrokinesis”) when he’s a 12 years old kid.. Grabbing literally 2 different atmosphere Dreadnoughts and smashing them together even when he was still a padawan after Ep2.. Holding back a LITERAL SOLAR FLARE by himself, which Kenobi directly stated he was the only one in the universe who would’ve been able to do so; it’s called a Theta storm. It’s a literal solar flare but over an even larger area it’s like an entire thunderstorm of solar flare, and he stopped it in its tracks and held it at back for literally like 5 to 10 minutes straight. To where when he was done and they fixed their orbital/solar shield generators he collapsed and had a seizure because he exhausted himself so badly. And that’s as even 2 YEARS before ROTS. By which point he’d grown even stronger. He was 21 when he held back the Theta storm; it’s one of the greatest feats in the entire verse…. And as for THEE greatest feat in the verse; HE LITERALLY OVERPOWERED THE FORCE ITSELF lmfao. Bent the literal personifications of the Light & Dark Sides of the force itself to his will and brought them to their knees before him. “Only The Chosen One could control both my children . . . Now you see who you really are . . .” And again, that was just after stopping the solar flare: 2 years BEFORE Revenge of The Sith. And that’s just a couple of his crazy feats.. Or when he landed the Invisible Hand; nobody else could’ve done that either. He literally became the ship, it became an extension of his will as it’s described. And it used the force to forcefully slow it down drastically. He he literally used the force to stop a burning Star Dreadnought beam-lining for the ground at Mach 1 and basically lifted it back up and “sat it down” right side up. He had to force its nose upward with the force WHILE its going that fast WHILE being inside of the thing. That’s crazy. It was directly referred to as his “masterpiece” for a reason.. And like I said, that’s just to name a couple. If you actually look up force power, and telekinesis (which literally encompasses like 75% of all force powers anyways, just different uses if telekinesis like push, pull, repulse, choke/crush etc.) on the Wookiepedia page for each literally almost ALL of them state at the bottom either “Anakin Skywalker was a master of this power” or “Darth Vader was a master of this power”.. One or the other. He was NOT some padawan who doesn’t know how to use the force. He’s the most powerful force user in galactic history in terms of direct strength in the force; and he knew HOW to use it. He was not just some blunt instrument at all. He’s shown way more combative aptitude AND abilities in general than Arcann ever has. Than MOST have……. Anakin is the ONLY force user in history to ever achieve “Oneness” more than once. He did so on MULTIPLE different occasions. 6-7 different times at the least. Anyone else who’s ever done it has only ever been able to do so just ONE time.. He did it TWICE on Mortis alone. Once during Battle of Praesytilin. And during the final duel with Dooku onboard the Invisible Hand and again when Landing Invisible Hand.. When he reaches that state, that state of utter clarity with no confliction at all and purity with the force; he’s unbeatable. It’s directly stated as much both in-universe and by other Lucasfilm officials. When he reaches that state it is basically him tapping into his full potential; and anybody who steps in front of him is fucked.. The Anakin that killed Dooku in that state of clarity could’ve killed Yoda and Sidious at the same time. Because at full potential he WOULD have been able to. That’s even been shown directly by official Lucasfilm sources. Like The Clone Wars Magazine…. Lucas himself directly stated that Vader was already roughly 20% stronger than Sidious before his injuries on Mustafar. So that’s his base; when he reaches that state of complete mental clarity and taps into his full potential and starts fueling himself with the Darkside, he’s quite literally unbeatable. Unstoppable…. Which is why Lucas himself even said it was a fluke that he “lost” to Kenobi on Mustafar after completely dominating him the entire time. He was IN that state on Mustafar before they arrived there. But his perceived betrayal of his wife-who he’d literally done it all for to begin with-fucked him all the way up. Shook him out of it. So he did something stupid at the end that he otherwise never would’ve done and paid for it in fire.. Anyways, the point is, yes, he HAD “already come into his force abilities”.. Being put into the suit is what HAMPERED them, not unlocked them…. Lightsaber combat ITSELF IS using the force. Idk why people don’t seem to understand that. Force channelling/amping yourself to where you’re moving faster than a bystander can perceive IS using the force…. Things such as Force channelling/amping and martial/lightsaber ability, and all out telekinetic strength-that is the physical side of the force; which encompasses literally like 80% of all combative aspects of the force. And where Anakin/Vader was utterly u rivaled by anyone else in history. Nobody could channel/amp themselves to a higher degree than him. Look at gis statistics in the Clone Wars Campaign Guide…. Anyways, like I said, physical channeling and amping to fuel yourself in the midst of a duel IS using the force. That’s what he was the absolute best at. He was the reigning master of the physical side of the force. That’s where he focused MOST of his unrivaled power. Which is why he was unbeatable in a duel before his injuries and conflicted state. People try to say he didn’t know his to use the force, NO, he just focused MOST of his power into force channelling/amping to fuel his completely unstoppable Djem So onslaught in duels instead of pulling back and launching force pushes or confusing them with mind tricks to whatever else. He just had his area of expertise. That and he was also a telekinetic savant. He just focused his power into the more physical aspects of the force when fighting instead of the esoteric or the arcane. There’s nothing wrong with using the best powers FOR a duel to begin with. He didn’t need to throw out force drain or mind tricks to use his force abilities in battle. Not in straight up duels anyways. On the battlefield, we HAVE seen him use massive force waves and repulses and all of the above. Force lighting once he embraced the Darkside and became anointed Vader to fry Jedi in the temple and guards and droids on Mustafar fighting his way into the Separtist compound-literally disintegrating enemies with blasts so powerful. And we’ve seen him throw down a massive multi hundred ton obelisk to crush a ton of Jedi at once in the temple; and then picked it up like it was just a pebble and launched it through the massive main bunkered doorway into the rest of the temple. He’s done it all, before he was ever encased in the suit.

[@lovefrompraha]

I'm very confused by your assessment of the Outlander. So you're saying Arcann is Sidious tier, who mind you is definitely in fact better then Anakin. And Arcann definitely didn't outduel the Outlander, because obviously, he was the best of his era. But you say Anakin is better then him?? I'm gonna need some clarification there. Because I'm pretty sure the Outlander would beat Anakin. Also really?? Anakin is not more powerful in the force. He has a higher connection, but not higher ability. Arcann could ragdoll people of Sidious level and withstand Valkorian. Anakin does not have similar or close ability.

[@elijahcesar4149]

To be fair. He lost his limbs. Hes emotionally unstable. So for him to really say he couldnt be powerful is a fetch. Because physically speaking? He was a beast jedi endurance and stamina on another level.. It woulda made more logical sense for him to train under windu than Obi Wan...cause of the fact he can tap into the light AND dark side of the force with leisure... If he honed this.. ? Imo woulda been the greatest jedi or force wielder of all time..

[@yungace1820]

First off no Sith in Star Wars is anywhere near Sidious, and second off Arcann by virtue of point 1 is not close to Sidious tier let alone even beat someone like Agen Kolar or Grievous.

[@poppadnice52]

Great video! One little critique I have is that, when using the Outlander as a metric for comparison, it would be good to establish the version of the Outlander being discussed, seeing as the Outlander could potentially be 8 different people, ranging from a simple smuggler to a force-ghost devouring powerhouse.

[@worsethanthedevil8731]

Anakin's disadvantage here is his uncontrollable emotion, which many others have mentioned. And due to that and him being power hungry, he was corrupted to the Dark Side and was unable to reach his full potential, though he still is no pushover. His Duelling skill greatly exceeds that of Arcann, but Arcann has the slightest edge in Force power, due to Anakin's inability (also there are no feats) to access his true prime state. So it all comes down to pure badassery... Anakin wins.

[@lapplandkun9273]

no. Anakin's force abilities are simply because he uses them like a blunt instrument and was primarily a lightsaber duelist first and foremost. It has nothing to do with his prime. It's rather he rarely uses them and if he did, then it was all the power with none of the tactical mindset. Anakin isn't incapable of using force abilities.

Doesn’t matter what you “favor” at all. And it doesn’t matter WHAT “abilities he has” at all. Anakin is the most powerful Jedi of all-time, DIRECTLY stated as such multiple times in multiple different places. He’d completely overpower anything arcann threw at him. And he’s a FAR greater swordsman than arcann ever was. He’s quite literally stated as the greatest Swordmaster in galactic history by the time he becomes Vader.

[@tylercaldeira4904]

I disagree with the dueling edge in arcann’s favor. If you look at the three duels of anakin vs dooku in aotc, anakin vs dooku In rots and anakin vs Obi wan in rots, out of the two he loses, he has a personal connection and reason to act out of line like he did and caused him to lose the fight. In neither of these duels was he being taunted. However, if you look at the duel he won here, he was being taunted almost the whole time by dooku which causes him to not play stupid, but fueled his power instead allowing anakin to disarm him in less than thirty seconds! Taunts don’t negatively effect anakin like they should, arrogance and personal connections with certain people do.

No he can end starkiller in 1 second, arcann killed a very powerful darth in 5 seconds along with 2-3 sith knights.

[@bellomori9944]

The only thing he failed to note was arcann was used to going up against Jedi trained to deal with the old sith Lords and arcann himself even went up against these old sith Lords which were much powerful then dooku and even sidious. the main thing that got me is when you said he would punch ark and you got to remember that say durasteel mask unless Anakin punch with his cybernetic arm which he usually willed as his lightsaber in Anakin would probably only end up hurting himself Edit: personally I always disliked arcann and love seeing him get his butt kicked by Anakin but I just wanted to stay the difference in the time Gap so the Jedi were much much weaker than those arcann was used to Fighting

[@supremeleaderren7681]

I'd say Anakin. Arcann is probably more powerful but Anakin is much more skilled and has more combat prowess.

[@joemomma9903]

Arcane vs Vader Vader would stomp in my opinion

[@ianharrison5264]

I think you underestimated Arcann here. There is little chance he wouldn't use force lightning, and we have never seen Anakin use Tueteminus, the only known ability able to stop/counter/redirect. He would be able to take some on his blade, of course, since many Jedi knew how to do so. What changes the verdict is that Arcann's lightning is pyrokinetic, and would operate differently than the lightning of count dooku. I think this would either stun Anakin enough to give Arcann the killing edge, if it didn't kill him outright. Anakin is extremely unbalanced, and that would have been an easy thing to exploit. I think Arcann wins here, if only barely.

[@vegatron276]

I feel everyone is constantly giving Anakin way too much credit. He comes out winning every time I see one of these clips. Arcann would wreck this fight 8/10 times. No doubt. Anakin is constantly loosing to dooku. Yes, he won the last fight. But, I would argue that Arcann is more powerful then Dooku by the time of that fight. And Dooku went into that fight with instructions not to kill Anakin, meaning he was holding back. And realized too late that he was screwed. Obi wan beat Anakin at what is supposed to be his most powerful. Yeah yeah, he was his master and everything, I've heard that argument. But you can have it both ways. You can't be the most powerful force wielder and lose to a lower tiered force user, yet somehow win against another crazy powerful force prodigy like Arcann. Can't even bring Vaylin into this conversation.

[@thomascowan551]

I agree with the outcome but I don't believe it to be anywhere near as close as you put it. Arcann only defeated his brother Thexan who was the better fighter because his brother never gave it his all because he cared for his brother providing Arcann the chance to land the killing blow. You also mention Anakin's temperament but Arcann was way more hot headed than Anakin who was not above taunting his opponents either. Arcann was not picked to lead the army, Thexan was. Anakin was a proven leader in the clone wars, Even rescuing a more bold but wise Master Kenobi on several occasions. Anakin did have a dark side obviously but it never hindered his ability to fight and increased his already raw potential with the force allowing him to smash through force barrios or tank hits from force users. The simple fact he outfights and overwhelms Dooku is prime example of not just his ability at fighting but his level headedness when taunted to use the anger as a weapon not overtake him unlike his counterpart in this fight who struck down his own brother in anger. Arcann was a good fighter no doubts and I actually like him, But he could never touch Sidious and very doubtful he could contend with Anakin for very long. He would rely on force powers and although never showcased to have the varied abilities of others the ones Anakin did have were devastatingly powerful. You mentioned he could not man handle masters of the force and I also disagree with this same as the saying that when Anakin lost his limbs he became less powerful. If its flesh that determines force power or potential why does he use his hands at all ? He uses it if force choke and that makes little sense, You can't control the force through metal ? The whatever they are called where entered in to do 2 things, The first being the Jesus of Star Wars to give him no father and to show how powerful he was in compresence to other force wielders that's it, Nothing else is that used for. So if you take that out what stops Anakin from being the most powerful force wielder ? Answer is nothing limited in certain powers he can use like force lightning but the powers he would wield he would wield with deadly effect, More so than Sidious but would obviously have more weaknesses with the suit. I am pointing this out because these are plot stupid things there were designed for one thing but ultimately counter and lessen him in other area's. He lost a hand so he wont ever be as good as he once was, Wait we clone people ? So why don't you clone me my god damn hand back so I can use the force through it ? WE CLEARLY HAVE THE ABILITY. Like that plots stupidity Darth Vader has no actual reason to be weaker than Sidious but he served him because why rule ? He had nothing left and that's why when Luke comes around he finally has a reason to, But only if he joins him. Like I said Anakin Vader was poorly done and the loss of a limb never stopped Luke being as powerful as he was this is a telling part of why Anakin and Arcann are not even in the same league of Anakin's worse day. Arcann was a mess, He was no tactical genius he was smart, But his brother was all round better than him in every way. Arcann had the potential to be as good but only when he tapped into the dark side where as his brother was just naturally better. The fight between them ended quickly but you need to consider the factors and reasons for that can't say the fight did not last long makes it sound like Arcann was leagues better than his brother who was uninjured and had the eye of his father who cared for his brother and that care was not only his weakness but fatal flaw. But to say Arcann meant to kill him would be overselling it as well that could have been anyone in front of him and he would have cut him down, The regret afterwards clearly shown he was in a blind rage. All this goes against your video of a calm collective intelligent taunting well rounded Sidious comparing warrior. He was one step away from being a slightly better Maul if that. Maul at least had the weapon to show his level of skill. Arcann comes up very short as said. His greatest opponent was the Hero and lets face it he is no Anakin by a long shot. So as I said earlier this was a fight Anakin not only wins but should have been a relatively comfortable fight. {0,0}

[@thomascowan551]

Seem to know them better than you do if you disagree with what I said. Arcann was clearly the weaker of the two and beat his brother not because he was better but because his brother never went all out against him. Look at anything to do with them, Look at them as they train, Or when they were in battle together it clearly depicts his brother to be the greater with only one flaw, Weakness and that was the love of his brother that ultimately got him killed. His brother surrendered to the darkside and used that to give him the power he needed to defeat an opponent that was not going all out to beat him. Nothing I said is wrong factually look it up.

In the comics, Vader defeated and killed an old Sith half Jedi, a heretic, named Darth Momin. Momin was quite strong, and had also defeated Vader, but also was crushed to death. It was said that sith master or apprentice should serve the dark side, not that the dark side should serve them. Meaning, Arcann could win. So I guess your right. But Vader’s hatred and anger towards anyone like Kenobi will most likely end in Vader losing his right or left arm. So, it’s a draw.
