Ergos thought he'd be clever and suggest this when I mentioned that this month's theme for Hungriest Warrior was Star Wars. HE THOUGHT I WOULDN'T DO IT

Jar Jar is better

What about "low-key Sith Lord" Jar-Jar?
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
How well does any non-force user fare against a Sith Lord? :P

honestly jar jar would win with his jammy luck, he in cannon he has done so mouch bs deus ex machina wins that even though i dont like him i feel he would win this.
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
How? His luck has been based entirely around environmental victories, which The Box is designed entirely to prevent.
Posted by doomfister 7 years ago Report
in star wars luck is an empirical thing, to such an extent there is a in universe species that feeds on it (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Anzat_(species)).
because of the shit jar jar gets up to his level must be off the chart, to such an extent that reality its self bends at times to allow him to win.

Looking up on it, it's only names luck- it's not actually a person's luck. Apparently they're just draining a person's life essence, brain, and possible connection to the force through their noses. Yuck.
Also, none of Jar Jar's luck-based feats were impossible, just so unlikely that it's easy to mistake it as such.

aye its pretty gross, it was back when George Lucas was just going ham with the cannon,when Disney bought the star wars franchise they removed a lot of stuff. most of it was for the better like crystal werewolf's and chewbacca dying in a bs way, some not so much like the new cannon for red light sabre crystals.
i used to play an anzat back in the table top dnd style game they had for star wars back in the mid 90's. i just kept eating folks luck so i would escape issues in really bs ways like a large sponge, one that stands out is when a stormtrooper tripped over and killed his 5 friends in a blue on blue incident.
after Disney purchased the franchise though they changed it to no longer being luck, but the failed at it because there is a still cannon book called tales from the cantina from 1977 that is still cannon, that explicitly explains it as luck.
you do have a point that he isn't bending reality, hes just so lucky it requires a suspension of disbelief at times, in the new cannon jar jar actually lives on the streets of naboo as a homeless clown, so it is pretty savage what disney did to him.
in that regard i in retrospect your evaluation of this fight is very inline with the Disney cannon but not the pre-disney cannon. either way i am quite enjoying these death match comparisons as what ifs are always a fun concept.

I'm not so sure it's actually luck, so much as strengthening their force powers, but the effect would be the same. Nice anecdote about the stormtroopers, though. XD
I do recall that Disney said everything but the movies, Clone Wars, and Rebels TV shows were considered canon, and as they continue on they'll add more. The rest is considered Legends material. (I actually liked Jar Jar's fate so good on Disney for treating him with some resepct)
If you like these, feel free to suggest more of them! If I'm left to come up with them, there's an increased risk of bias tainting the results.

aye back in the 80's it was literally luck, which was described as a part of the force, so once midiclorians were put in cannon it means that the Anzat basically steal them from other people. it was something i always thought would be a cool concept if there was an Anzat sith who fed on the midclorians of jedi to gain more power, which has always surprised me that no one in the eu had done.
what is and isnt cannon for star wars is a mess atm, as disney scrapped 30 years of media to make episode 7 and its meant that when ever they cherry pick something like for example thrawn or darth revan it creates cannon issues or the product they make is sub par compared to what was there previously.
jar jar is something they have handled quite well, as there was alot of crap with him in the eu. star wars will always have the issue that to milk it they have to pump out books, and for that they need multiple authors so clashes of cannon are part and parcel with the franchise like star trek for example.
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
Yeah, except Star Wars is better. :P
Posted by doomfister 7 years ago Report
agreed, to be fair though there have been some good runs in star trek.
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
I'm not saying it's bad, it's just not as good.
Posted by doomfister 7 years ago Report
i have to agree the only part of star trek i have ever really enjoyed all the way through was deep space nine.
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
I never really could get into trek like Star Wars. It has its moments, though!
Posted by doomfister 7 years ago Report
agreed

Couldn't Jar-Jar use his long sticky tongue to pin Padma's arms to her side, limiting her from her blaster for him to remove it and then eat her?
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
Possibly, but its more likely that he would miss for one, but also I would bet on Padme's blaster shots moving faster and more accurately than his tongue.
Posted by UnknownGamer21 7 years ago Report
Then there's his clumsiness that would probably cause him to be a harder target to hit. Add that to his dumb luck about dodging blaster fire and... in my eyes, it looks like it could be hard to tell who would win. There's also another strength for Jar-Jar, his spit. It could blind Padma, it technically blinded her in one of the Clone Wars Episodes where he saved her from drowning
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
His clumsiness and incompetence only works situationally. In a neutral setting like The Box, it only hinders him. The moment he trips, he's a still target.
Posted by UnknownGamer21 7 years ago Report
His kind can also survive underwater, so it really does depend on where they would be if they were to fight
Posted by veender 7 years ago Report
They would be in a neutral setting to remove any inconsistent advantages

Well Jar Jar has won ALL battles he was in. No one else managed that in all of Star Wars
Posted by veender 4 years ago Report
I guess you could technically say that for Rey as well, haha

I said Star Wars, not high Budget Fanfiction

Well said! XD
