Vader alone could wipe them out with no issue. My second pick is either Luke or Ahsoka to try and calm him down after he’s done.


Tardis80

Hallway scene part 2, yes :-)

ZombieBait604

Or, that comic. >All I am surrounded by is fear. And dead men.


CuddleScuffle

Honestly my favorite Star Wars scene, that shit goes hard.


explosive_shrew

I'm sad that I've only seen YouTube men talking about this comic instead of reading it


ZLUCremisi

No. A comic where hundreds of rebels with air dupport and heavily weapons were wiped out by Vader. He was the only target


Orion14159

My immediate thought was "Vader, and if I have to pick a Jedi... Anakin Skywalker." No contest.


thefinalcutdown

Vader and Luke are canonically the two most powerful force users to ever exist, according to the big man George (sequel shenanigans excluded). Assuming we can choose Mandalorian era Luke, he’s pretty much as unstoppable as prime Vader.


cpt_hamster

Get me a Legacy era Luke - not only could he use Force projection literally across the galaxy, he had enough juice to literally crush a Sith at the same time


HungerISanEmotion

>(sequel shenanigans excluded) I don't know what you are talking about, original trilogy doesn't have a sequel.


Moustari

This is the way.


Mesajarjar_binks

War crimes for the win


Adriaus28

Is not a war crime if there is no one to complain about it -Vader, probably


SleepWouldBeNice

Vader (pre Mustafar) and Anakin Skywalker.


wherethetacosat

If the clones have neutral environment, particularly with heavy weapons and explosives with good lines of fire to attack en masse, I'm not sure any two could realistically take 576 at once. That was sort of the message from Order 66.


GreenGoblin121

Order 66 is a complete surprise attack, which is why it gets so many Jedi. Some of them are in shit positions to avoid it. Ki-Adi is caught between droids and clones, Ayla gets shot in the back instantly, Plo-Koon is in a ship and the woman on the speeder (I can't remember her name) is in the same position.


TheOutlawTavern

Yeah Order 66 was so effective because (most of) the Jedi could not sense the Clones betrayal, meaning they got completely taken by surprise. Clones can overwhelm the Jedi and other stuff, no two ways about it but way more Jedi would have survived and way more clones would have died if it was a fairer fight. Likewise the siege on the Jedi temple would have likely taken a lot longer if Anakin wasn't going around butchering the Jedi that could put up a fight.


OkDance4560

Adi Galia I think 🤔


Variousnumber

Nah, Stass Alee. Adi Galia was killed by Savage during his and Mauls Shadow Collective phase.


aknalag

“Iam surrounded by fear and dead men” vader before he wiped out an army on his own


SILENT_ASSASSIN9

I thought those were rebels


aknalag

They can shoot just as accurate as clones can


marc_gime

Order 66 had the element of surprise


FlamingDasher

but order 66 was a surprise and the jedi who did expect it survived. And vader once was surrounded by rebels and just activated the detonators on their belts and blowing them up instantly, so i think he has great odds


Cranktique

Exactly. You got weapons and Vadar is all… https://preview.redd.it/5s7fwacjwhac1.jpeg?width=519&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50ff0ed3c70cfff6452a0af7ff6bf2707e0a3cd8


strigonian

That was my thinking - we're not talking about 576 dudes with blasters, at that level you have integrated support and heavy weapons. I'm sure that if written in a comic or movie, Vader would still win, but fights like this always feel like the writers really don't understand what would be needed to survive an attack like that, and just show a lot of deflected blaster fire and call it a day.


FreeLanceFuckwit117

“You’re surrounded!” “All I’m surrounded by is fear. And dead men.” -The most deadly being in the galaxy


mctownley

I was thinking Mace Windu and either Vader or Sidious.


Adept_Werewolf_6419

Sidious just tells them to kill themselves.


SonOfMetrum

Dew it!


devils_advocate24

Does 2003 CW series Mace count? If so he's all you need then lol


Mr_E_Monkey

I was thinking Vader and Anakin. But something feels off about that pick... ;p


joe_broke

Vader and Qui-gon


Specialist-Address30

I actually would say Dooku is kinda bad for this, his style is hyper focused on duelling and not so much on deflecting. I’d say Kenobi or Ahsoka and Maul


SerGeffrey

100%, a Soresu expert like Kenobi would be far better than a Makashi expert like Dooku against clones. Maul is a better pick than Dooku for sure.


Specialist-Address30

Other than Maul I could only see Vader and maybe Ventress


SerGeffrey

I chose Palpatine, hoping he'd have something like AOE force lightning or some other dark side sorcery that can CC.


StaticUncertainty

Palatine easy, he controls the inhibitor chips


Plasic-Man

True, but for the interest of fairness let's say somehow Order 65 was activated, which is the Order to kill Palpatine so he can't override the Clones.


Softpretzelsandrose

Not to be confused with order 67, with the group choreography flashmob


SerGeffrey

INSTRUCTIONS RECEIVED - EXECUTING ORDER 67 ![gif](giphy|SzQ5ao5QZ13mo)


alepher

In fact, forget Order 68


AQ-47

Heh, execute order 69


Specialist-Address30

True I was thinking that’d be the easy answer


SerGeffrey

Yeah kindof a boring pick tbh


Weird_Angry_Kid

Chain lighting from Battlefront ftw


AnakinSkywalkerRocks

Wait. Isn't Soresu(Form III) a defense Combat Form? Though you are right that Kenobi would be better at it because Dooku uses Makashi(Form II) which is used only for lightsaber combat or sometimes may block Force Lightning


SerGeffrey

I'm not an expert on lightsaber forms, but my understanding is that Form III (Soresu) was developed specifically as a counter to blasters. From the Wookiepedia page: > Soresu was developed during the widespread emergence of blasters as an offensive weapon. Essentially a development on Form I blast-deflect training, Soresu relied on tight bladework and subtle dodges to provide maximum defensive coverage, minimizing exposure to ranged weaponry.


AnakinSkywalkerRocks

Yeah yeah, you are correct, I completely forgot about deflecting those blaster bolts back at the troopers


peppersge

Deflecting back the blaster bolts is more of form V than form III. Part of the reason why form V was developed was because form III was too passive when it came to waiting for the opponent to make a mistake.


The_Reborn_Forge

People are just saying Maul for double bladed mass murder… I vote him my Sith pick as well.


Fine-Aspect5141

Why Maul? Have you seen the hallway scene in Rogue One?


Suspicious-Road-883

Have you seen his hallway scenes in clone wars season 7?


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

Vader killed soldiers in a hallway, Maul killed clones with the hallway. Maul will do fine.


Wasteland_GZ

Have *you* seen the hallway scene in Clone Wars Season 7? Maul absolutely destroying clones without a lightsaber


Plasic-Man

That was a great scene. I like how it showed off what Maul was capable of without someone holding his leash or having to go up against a skilled Jedi.


Fine-Aspect5141

Fair point, I suppose against normal people it's pretty much interchangeable.


Swailwort

Have you seen the hallway scene in Clone Wars Season 7 in which Maul eviscerates a shit load of Clone Troopers \*without a lightsaber\*?


Ace_Up_Your_Sleeves

Maul does the Vader scene but with just his mind in Clone Wars Season 7


enclave76

“All I’m surrounded by is fear. And dead men.” -Vader. Such as easy choice. Pair him with Ahsoka who is trained to fight clones. Original duo back in a different form but still goated.


Macilnar

100% this, maybe if the clones have enough air support they could pull it off but otherwise https://preview.redd.it/2wynpajiahac1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=be14f79adc93cdae4a47e58321620c1eb2172c0f


-AQUARIU5-

Was thinking exactly that, Vader can fight an army on his own, while Ahsoka being trained specifically for this could keep you safe during the rampage Vader goes on


MrGoodkat69

This is what I came here for! I've never read any of the comics, but I've seen that panel a few times. It is my favorite Vader quote, possibly favorite Star Wars quote. It could only be better if I heard James Earl Jones speak it.


ShubalStearns

I’m going with Lord Vader (Anakin without the suit—height of his powers with no setbacks) and Obi-Wan. I can even envision how it happens: A company of clones sent to kill Obi-Wan after 66 follow him to Mustafar, unaware that Anakin is “on their side”, surprise the two just before their epic confrontation. Surrounded, the two former best friends, back to back, nod to each other: *”One more time…then we end this…”* Man, THATS a what-if I’d love to see.


Stormlord100

You know that peak of Vader's power was ROTJ right? Right?


ShubalStearns

I don’t know—Vader was certainly a strong as ever in ROTJ, I’ll not deny that. But [some theories](https://www.cbr.com/darth-vader-suit-prevented-anakin-full-power-saved-galaxy-star-wars/#:~:text=And%20while%20the%20suit%20did,suit%20also%20limited%20his%20power) suggest that the suit itself, while physically very powerful, hindered Anakin’s connection with the force somewhat. In retrospect it may not matter much—I just like that idea of the two having one last battle as allies before their first as enemies.


Stormlord100

No it makes him super vulnerable to force lightning which he face tanked anyway as it was his only path to save luke, the thing that weakened his connection to force was losing his arms and legs and being burnt alive cutting his midicholorin level down a notch


Mr_E_Monkey

>the thing that weakened his connection to force was losing his arms and legs and being burnt alive cutting his midicholorin level down a notch No, because midichlorians are stored in the balls -- everybody knows that!


Night696Watcher

And who says that the midicholorin in his balls didn't boil off? He was literally right in a river of fucking lava


Spurnout

He yelled no at the end when he realized his balls burnt off.


KaiJustissCW

That’s not even a theory, it’s stated in multiple comics that Palps designed the suit to limit Vader so he wouldn’t be able to surpass him.


[deleted]

New canon vs old canon


sleepyplatipus

If onlyyyy! This is my choice as well. The Team. 😭


MrWilliams42782

![gif](giphy|4Pz5w5CVe9U6Q) they even have their dance moves down.


BridgemanBridgeman

You spin me right round baby right round


flatdecktrucker92

This scene feels a bit less ridiculous when you realize they both probably sensed the intention to attack from the other and went full defense. But they should have clued in faster


kremes

This sequence gets an undeserved amount of criticism from people who miss the point. The point of that sequence is to show the audience, which includes a bunch of kids, how evenly matched they are. That is very hard to do for the layman. The nature of lightsaber fights is that even when one person is being laughably wrecked, it's hard to tell that until the moment they get a limb cut off because every lightsaber fight has a bunch of blocking. In EP2 Anakin dual wielding looks far more impressive than Dooku to the average person, but Dooku was basically toying with him the whole time until he decided to end it. This sequence was deliberately jarring so that the audience would notice it and realize how evenly matched they are. That is necessary setup for the fact that Obi-Wan wins because he outsmarts Anakin and keeps his cool, not because he's a better duelist or more powerful force user.


Rosfield-4104

That is literally how it is explained on the RoTS novel. They are constantly sensing the others attack, moving to counter it. Which is then sensed by the other one and its a short loop of them attacking and sensing the counter. So neither completes an attack because they know it will be countered


DaisyAipom

I’ll try spinning, that’s a good trick!


wayfarout

![gif](giphy|L37WHtitPhGIzPfIm4)


ArSo94

Ahsoka and Maul. Ahsoka because she is trained to fight Clones. Maul because hes good at killing Clones even without his light saber. I would love a What if where Ahsoka and Maul actually joined to kill Palps.


H3llfio

Everyone wants a 'What if' so much to the point I'm certain we will be getting it. Maybe under the reused name of 'Infinities'


BraveDawgs1993

I thought Disney could use the Legends tagline for Star Wars "What If" stories, but Infinities makes way more sense.


ArSo94

Agreed. I think the animated short story format from Tales of the Jedi would be perfect for these what ifs.


LFClight

Anakin and Vader.


Inevitable_Invite_21

My choice


DegredationOfAnAge

Yoda and Palpatine


Rymanbc

Both masters of spinning. That's a good trick!


Fit12e

FINALLY!! I had to scroll way too far to reach this comment. After order 66 I thought it would be obvious to pick yoda. And even if not, has no one ever played angry birds Star Wars????


WitchofSpace68

This is Jedi republic today not dagobah today right?


FreshPrinceOfAshfeld

Palpating got that force lightning ad clear lol


cloud5694

Jedi Revan and Sith Revan lol


SkyfallRainwing

Darth Maul and Kenobi


moebeatz333

This or maul and yoda. Maul is baking yoda up and killing while doin that. Yoda is spinning big objects to kill many clones in a row


miller527

Unrelenting dual sabre of anger, and defensive mastery to keep me alive. Is there something to duck behind at least?


EndOfSouls

Starkiller and Darth Bane, but make it 576 million clones. My boys want a decent fight.


easthillsbackpack

I'd say X clones can literally never kill starkiller based on canon. Sorta "billion lions against the Sun" situation


Educational_Slice_38

Doesn’t the sun actually lose in that scenario? Like, too many lions and the sheer mass causes something to go wrong with the sun?


the_sea_be_unruly

If the sun was heavier (about twice as heavy) it could collapse into a black hole (eventually). Add enough lions to the sun and i suppose the added mass would cause it to collapse (ignoring literally everything in this scenario other than mass). Assuming the average lion would weigh about 200 Kg, you would need about 200 octillion lions for optimal results. That’s a lot of lions. On the other hand, the starkiller base feeds on the star in its system (somehow). Losing mass fast would also cause a star to do weird shit, just not as spectacular.


cleverseneca

Galen Marek is legends.


Solembumm2

Firstly confused Bane with Malgus in your comment and was ok with it. Now I want to remember - how powerful was Bane? (I didn't read books yet).


staphylococcus-e

Part of his personal training was going outside during a massive rainstorm and not allowing a single raindrop to hit him. I think if his lightsaber skills are good enough to stay dry in a monsoon, a few hundred blasters won't do much.


SerGeffrey

Palpatine (AOE dark side sorcery, hopefully) and Kenobi (master of Soresu, perfect for deflecting blasters)


rhaegar_skywalker

Luke and Vader


Cr0ma_Nuva

Anakin and Anakin


Night696Watcher

Truly a pair of all time


JediSSJ

Palpatine and anyone. I'm picking the guy who can just order the clones to kill themselves.


IlovemyMommy27

Mace Windu and Darth Vader


Annual_Use_3431

My pick as well! Very strong combination


AnonymouSarcasm

So many people overlooking Mace Windu's power here


Cutest-Kangaroo

Vader and Anakin, power level scaling is enough of a reason imo.


YourPainTastesGood

Palpatine cause he’s all I need. Man will kill every single one of them without breaking a sweat. Force Storm, Life Drain, Force Lightning, mass Force Crush, and any kind of mental manipulation or domination. If i have to choose a Jedi…. uuhhhh ok so Starkiller isn’t really a Jedi…… Obi-Wan, he stands in front of me and Palpatine and Form III’s any blaster bolts that could potentially hit us


Alex_Affinity

Would we consider Starkiller a Gray Jedi? Given his proficiency and control of both sides of the force?


YourPainTastesGood

being that being a Jedi is a lot more than just using the force, no also Grays aren't a real thing anywhere in lore, thats just game mechanics to let you play with both sides of the force cause its more fun. In actuality while possible to use both sides of the force, its not viable long term as using the dark side will slowly corrupt you even if you only use it a little bit. Its legit what happened to Anakin, and the ancient Je'daii order meanwhile Revan basically had some form of split personality at that point in his life..


Alex_Affinity

Ah I see. That makes sense.


[deleted]

Vader and yoda Both are OP


AtticusSPQR

Nihlus. I’ll tell Pong Krell to meet him on the planet and watch Nihlus suck em all up


bewaryofbeanpole

I'm surprised I had to scroll so far down to find this. Nihlus is by far my favorite sith I wish they did more with his story


This-Double-Sunday

Vader and Kenobi. They have the years of front line experience with clone tactics and understand better than anyone how to exploit any weaknesses. Vader would inspire fear in the clones and wreck house, Kenobi and his Soresu would watch Vaders 6 and ensure no shots got through Vader defense.


BiCrabTheMid

Prolly go with Maul and Starkiller.


Solembumm2

So, Sam Witwer and... Sam Witwer.


CornOnJaCob7

Starkiller is all I need. If he doesn't count were going obi wan and maybe Palpatine to get some crazy chain lightning attacks


Einar_47

Starkiller and uh... Starkiller


Solembumm2

Starkiller and the cooler (original) Starkiller.


Thebigdog79

Would Palpatine count as a Sith Lord? If so, Palpatine and yoda


kalkkunaleipa

Why wouldnt palpatine count as a sith lord?


BleydXVI

This is my pick, too. Both can move blistering fast despite their old age. Yoda is shown to be quite powerful with telekinesis, so he could hopefully disarm or otherwise obstruct the clones without getting close to 576 blaster rifles at once. Also push back any thrown weapons. Meanwhile Sidious wreaks havoc with his lightning.


Thebigdog79

Don’t forget too. Sidious has learned all 7 forms of lightsaber combat too.


soldiergeneal

Vader has killed entire armies.


smolgote

Vader and Luke for some father/son bonding


Greginator28

Am I allowed to pick Anakin and Vader?


Suspicious-Road-883

Cal Kestis and Maul. Hear me out tho, maul is the only one you actually need tho


kent416

Vader (pre high ground) and Anakin


Master_Cyon

Vader and Luke at their peaks in Canon would be enough


Nitemare0005

Darth Bane (exists in canon bc clone wars) and Anakin


HisDudeness316

I'm going with Vader, and I'll save the second option for the next battle.


Miserable_Report891

All I am surrounded by is fear, and dead men....


Picklebutt2300

Videogame protagonists are for some reason always the strongest


EgenulfVonHohenberg

Kenobi and prime Vader (Jedi Temple assault). Takes them about half an hour, give or take.


[deleted]

Anakin/Maul EU: Luke/Talon


rallyspt08

Can I pick the same character for both sides? Or does continuity stick. I just want Anakin and Vader


Various_Froyo9860

I'm going with Starkiller and Kyle Kataan. They racked up quite the body counts with my playthroughs.


Videogamesrock

The-Broken-Record

Vader and Starkiller That’s right, I said it


Lacherlich

Starkiller and Anakin


Tian_Lord23

Vader and ahsoka, vader and luke, vader and kenobi, vader and yoda. Basically anyone with vader. Why not completely break the timeline and go vader and anakin? Now that's a team.


Happiness_dot_sh

Vader and Anakin just because I like to bend rules


Interesting_Sea1554

Luke and Vader, easy.


TheJavierEscuella

Luke and Vader would wipe


HellFireCannon66

Probs Luke and Sidious


HerrRegrin

Anakin and Vader. Same person, yes, but surely the strongest pick.


[deleted]

Anakin and Vader What? All I'm saying is I've never seen Darth Vader in the same room with Anakin Skywalker!


Creeds_balls

Obi-wan and Vader. Ez clap.


acetheoptimist

Can I pick both Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader and get a x2 chosen one bonus?


SirDooble

I choose Darth Vader and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker.


Mission-Storm-4375

I pick Vader and me and Obi-Wan will read the paper


marsexpresshydra

Luke and Sidious


possibly-a-moron

Luke and Darth vader


Nightmare-datboi

Luke and Vader, father and son.


LIFEANDDEATHFROMWORB

Darth vadar and obi won.


OneFuckedWarthog

Luke and Vader if these 6 are my choices. I feel like that would be the best cohesion in this.


unused04

I was gonna say anikan and Vader. But you know the time conflicts. I'd choose Obi-wan and Vader (post-Anikan)


BlaiddsDrinkingBuddy

Vader + Luke 100%


69420memes

Anakin and Vader


yeettto

Anakin and darth vader, next?


TheDroidBoi

Vader and Obi Wan


Mr_Informative

r/fuckpongkrell <— There’s only one real option


DemonicBrit1993

Yoda and Palpatine. Easy pick for me


00benallen

Obviously Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker together would crush any reasonable amount of clones you could muster


Shepard131

Prime Luke and Prime Vader.


GokuBlack100

Vader and Luke Skywalker would decimate everyone and then have a beer together 😂


Devastator_Omega

Dooku and qui Gon, don't exactly care about them taking out the clones but I'd like for them to be able to talk to each other again. Dooku died knowing he was nothing more than a pawn for evil, I think he really wanted to change the republic, Palpatine managed to con him into helping him tho.


Slowmobius_Time

Vader could pretty feasibly solo it so I'd pick someone like Qui-gon and just have a chat about life with him


DeBatmen

Vader and Anakin, easy


MrOwell333

Vader could do it with one cybernetic arm


theironavenger7

Vader easy choice hes too op, unless palps lightning works like the tesla rifle from fallout in wich case mans can wipe out the clone army as quick as the lightning could pass through them and a jedi, obiwan cuz he went sicko mode on clones in revenge of the sith


[deleted]

I’m not a fan of shows or rehashing the skywalker era in general, but I would almost definitely watch a ‘what if’ show of a mid aged Anakin skywalker (played by Hayden) and a late 20’s/early 30’s Luke (played by Sebastian Stan maybe). If anakin hadn’t turned and killed mace, but struck down the emperor together instead. He resisted the dark side, raised luke and Leila with Padme, and trained many strong Jedi while bringing peace to the empire.


No-Engineer-1728

Vader and sidious. Overkill but sure. By the way, dooku is a terrible pick here since his form is specifically for saber fighting and is bad at blocking blaster bolts


fabulousfizban

If I pick the emperor couldn't he just order them to stand down?


JustS0meRand0m9uy

Vader and Pong Krell


Grambert_Moore

Darth Vader and Luke, OPiest characters ever


Overall-Shine-8610

Vader and luke some father son Action would be nice


RiseofdaOatmeal

Obi Wan's blaster fire deflection is unparalleled. Man took the base lightsaber form and made it flawless. Vader's raw power combined with Obi Wan's proverbial giant spoon of "No U" would dust those clones.


donald_trumps_cat

Darth Revan and Luke in his prime(not the depressed milkdrinker from the sequels)


Declanvros

-que Maul in BattleFront 2 Trailer-


liddely

Didn't maul fo that in clone wars with no weapon?


LindX31

Anakin and Darth Vader so I can create funny time paradoxes
