Who Would Win: Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ahsoka vs Vader, Starkiller, and The Grand Inquisitor

When it comes to the power and skill within the Star Wars universe, the Force has produced many formidable warriors. Among the most prominent are Anakin Skywalker (and his alter ego Darth Vader), Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano, the Grand Inquisitor, and the Sith Lords, such as Darth Vader (Starkiller) and The Grand Inquisitor. In this article, we'll dive into a comparative analysis of their fighting prowess and prowess, focusing on a face-off between Anakin (both before and after he becomes Darth Vader) with the Grand Inquisitor.

Combatants and Their Skills

Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader)

As the “Chosen One” of the Force, Anakin holds an unparalleled place in the Star Wars universe. His unique Djem So form of lightsaber combat, a highly offensive and aggressive style, is well-suited for confrontation. Anakin's abilities defy description; he is one of the most powerful Jedi and Sith who has ever lived. Even when not wielding the Force, Anakin's exceptional skill and experience give him an edge in combat.

The Grand Inquisitor

The Grand Inquisitor is one of the most sought-after targets for the Jedi Order and a highly skilled combatant in his own right. His lightsaber is capable of transitioning into a double-bladed form and can be spun in a 360-degree rotation. Despite his formidable skills, he has been bested by multiple opponents, including Jocasta Nu, Kanan Jarrus, and during his fight with Darth Vader, where he was not triumphant for long.

Experience and Powers

Anakin Skywalker (Before) vs. The Grand Inquisitor

Given the historical context, Anakin Skywalker, before he becomes Darth Vader, would have a significant advantage over The Grand Inquisitor. Anakin has years of combat experience, having faced many opponents, including Count Dooku. His Djem So fighting style, which prioritizes offense, makes him exceptionally dangerous in a duel. On the other hand, The Grand Inquisitor, despite being a formidable opponent, has limited combat experience. This is evidenced by his defeat at the hands of Kanan Jarrus, a Jedi Knight with less than a year of Padawan training.

Anakin Skywalker (After) vs. The Grand Inquisitor

Post-conversion to the Dark Side, Anakin's abilities as Darth Vader skyrocket, making him a more formidable opponent. His experience coupled with the power of the dark side gives him a steep advantage. The Grand Inquisitor, while skilled, lacks the sheer power and strength that Darth Vader possesses. As such, Anakin's experience and power would easily outmatch The Grand Inquisitor's ability to turn his lightsaber into a double-bladed weapon and spin it 360 degrees.

Detailed Analysis

Anakin vs. The Grand Inquisitor

Compared to Anakin Skywalker, the Grand Inquisitor is a skilled but not unbeatable opponent. The Grand Inquisitor’s double-bladed lightsaber and 360-degree spin are impressive, but these gimmicks can be overshadowed by Anakin’s Djem So mastery and dark side abilities. Anakin’s Djem So form is well-known for its offensive prowess, particularly when wielded by someone as powerful as Darth Vader. This makes it nearly impossible for The Grand Inquisitor to maintain a competitive duel, especially given his limited combat experience.

Note: It should be pointed out that The Grand Inquisitor was ultimately defeated by Kanan Jarrus, a Jedi Knight who is in many ways Anakin’s mirror. Kanan's victory confirms Anakin's superior combat skills and experience.

Conclusion

Given the overwhelming evidence of their prowess, it is clear that Anakin Skywalker (and especially Darth Vader) would easily defeat The Grand Inquisitor. Anakin’s extensive combat experience, mastery of Djem So, and the dark side powers he wields make him an unstoppable force. In contrast, The Grand Inquisitor, while highly skilled, lacks the necessary experience and power to compete with Anakin.

Thus, we conclude that Anakin wins easily.
