Luke Skywalker is Star Wars’ strongest Jedi, which does not mean he is invincible. Here are 10 Star Wars characters who could defeat Luke.
Luke Skywalker is Star Wars' original hero, but there are a few characters who could defeat Luke – be it in a lightsaber fight or as a pilot. After destroying the Death Star, surviving an encounter with Darth Vader, and taking down the Empire, Luke Skywalker became a legend, both in-universe and as a character. Despite all the Jedi that were introduced after the original trilogy, many of which looked more impressive than Luke, Luke is still considered Star Wars’ strongest Jedi.
9 Mace Windu Most of the prequel-era Jedi never got to interact with Luke Skywalker, including Mace Windu. However, in a hypothetical crossover between Luke and the prequels’ Jedi Order, Mace Windu would be a strong candidate to defeat Luke Skywalker. Even though Star Wars does not have a specific power system, an Anakin line from Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones suggests that Windu was one of the strongest Jedi in the history of the Order.
7 Ahsoka Tano In theory, Luke Skywalker is more powerful than Ahsoka Tano. Luke defeated Darth Vader in a lightsaber fight when Ahsoka did not, after all. However, when it comes to experience and skills shown on-screen, Ahsoka Tano takes the lead. Lore and power systems aside, Clone Wars Ahsoka Tano did far more impressive things than Luke Skywalker ever did in the original trilogy. Obviously, that difference comes down to the medium in which each character’s story was told.
4 Ben Solo / Kylo Ren Star Wars: The Force Awakens' opening sequence set the tone for how powerful the sequel trilogy characters’ would be by having Kylo Ren stop a blaster shot midair using the Force. Ren also used the Force to interrogate people in The Force Awakens, which is something Star Wars movies had never shown. Curiously Kylo Ren’s training was incomplete during The Force Awakens, showing how much potential the character still had.
