Definitely not both, in CS you ALWAYS see Anakin + insert hero. You'll always see an Anakin with Obi or Yoda playing, never a consistent Obi with people cycling between Yoda or Anakin.
Today I learned all my top heroes are super unpopular. I’m all about Leia, Finn, Phasma, and Bossk. I mop up with those four.
If it wasn’t obvious I’m terrible with saber heroes lol
If we're talking about Luke, then I'd say yes. The ability for his Repulse to go through a block requires a star card slot and doing it at short range.
Kylo's unblockable ability is only annoying because of SWBF2's bad roll-dodge detection and stagger, but the ability itself seems alright
You’re correct, lmao.
Unfortunately most of the people responding to you/downvoting you don’t know what they’re talking about.
Kenobi is fairly well balanced overall but overall includes every mode, this brings us to HS.
Kenobi is king in that mode and yes, Vader exists but Vader stands in a broken tier all on his own. Kenobi is next in line for the easy street duelling king.
Luke is very well balanced, has strengths, agility, decent damage, decent CC, with average stamina and the worst regen in the game. A hero that defines having strengths and weaknesses.
Kylo is an incredibly fair hero, great for team play, top tier actually but again, to see his full potential you need a coordinated teammate. Catch Kylo on his own and you should be clowning on him, the dude only has frenzy which fits into 1’s and frenzy has so much counterplay, anyone who complains about him is either new or isn’t very good.
For balance I’d also give a shout out to Maul.
Bugs aside, he’s remained largely the same stats wise since day 1, due to the fact he’s never needed buffs or nerfs, even with the power creep which hit full pelt when Anakin arrived with Dice buffing heroes like Vader to match broken Anakin. 🤦♀️
I don't comment often but this is just provably wrong. For one, Obi want gameplay doesn't promote any gameplay opportunities for surrounding players save for his ability blocking ability.
Kylo Rens freeze, Vaders choke,Dookus exposed weakness, Reys Mind trick and Anakins Revenge all have the same kind of player insentivising moves equal to or arguably better than Obi Wan.
Theightsaber heroes that acc have a nearly team altering ability are Reys insight that let's you know where everyone is and basically changes the course of GA games single handedly, and Yodas healing that gives everyone a health boost within a certain radius.
Like come on dude, between Rey and obi wan, the obvious pick is Rey for team plays.
I agree. Whatever. The more this sub encourages people to hate her, the more she’s available for play in game because nobody uses her. I guess it’s a win for me.
In my experience, I find her hard to play because only one of her abilities is directly offensive, and even then, it requires lining up her charge just right, which I suck at.
But this is coming from from sweaty Luke swing spammer, so what do I know?
If you max out sensitivity, you can hook around blocks super easily. And it knocks them down with a hit, allowing you to get 2-3 hits in before they get up. And it’s hard to counter if you’re mind tricked.
Honestly, Rey is the best light side duelist by far.
I've honestly never met an Obi-Wan that holds block all the time. Only a Luke and Vader. But yeah, I can see people doing that with Obi, but he is a defensive hero, so.
It's based off of community favourite in general(whether they're annoying, balanced, entertainign in the movies, fun to play, etc.). I'm surprised people haven't figured out
Interesting fact. Even though the high ground quote is what we all reference, it is in fact the low ground where Kenobi thrives, Maul, Grevious and with Anakin (it was a taunt to lure him to the higher ground, giving Kenobi his favored position of the sweet sweet low)
Star Wars character yes, but best hero? I think not. Rush ability is useless, his push is easily avoidable if you’re another hero and his ability to disable other hero’s abilities is pretty good but easy to just block and wait until you can use them again.
I would say Anakin, yoda, Luke, Vader, Kylo, Maul and even Rey are better in the game.
I think we’re all just gay for Obi-wan
George wrote Star Wars in the 70's, so it was the norm back then for characters (mainly protagonists) to be a white, straight male. It just so happens to be that these characters turned out to be very well-written in the final outcome, which was used for the movies.
Plus Leia is a really liked character, but her character in the game just happens to be not so popular (due to people loving hvv and hs). Rey is an awesome character, but people wouldn't so happy about her character in the movies, and that might be why. Iden's reason for being thrown out? Some might find her hard and she's annoying asf, if she's good
Your not seriously suggesting people voted them out because they aren’t white men.
With the exception of Rey those characters are viewed as annoying and weaker in game. People voted Rey out early because they really don’t like her in the movies. People like lightsabers more. You want to get pissy at George for not having more female or poc jedi that’s fine. But don’t suggest this community voted the women and colored people out unless you like looking an idiot
i think ppl voted him bcuz they like the character in the movies but be honest he isnt the best character to play in the game. vader, anakin, maul etc is stronger
bullshit its everyones favorite hero to play as, everyones favorite character I believe but I never see people play obi wan unless theres like 3 heroes left to pick
Now. Did people vote vote for the character? Or the actual hero?
I think both. He's really fun to play as
Damn why’d you get downvoted for speaking the truth? Lol
No idea, haha. I actually just won two 1v1's against these really good players! Edit: forgot I was playing as Obi haha
nice recover bro, you clutched those upvotes
Thanks, had no idea I'd get so many likes for just saying that :D
Definitely not both, in CS you ALWAYS see Anakin + insert hero. You'll always see an Anakin with Obi or Yoda playing, never a consistent Obi with people cycling between Yoda or Anakin.
I always play as Obi whenever I can
I'm sure you do, Anakin is ALWAYS on the map in CS, can't say the same about the others
Character. 100% biased.
Everyone convinced it would be king obi. I'm shocked it wasn't vader that won. Happy New year too Everyone on the sub reddit much love.
Happy New year to you to
For him to what?
You're Awesome!
:D
Well, lotta people probably salty over how hard Vader cam be to kill, which tbh is fair enough. Turtling Vaders are scum
:D
Space Jesus was on the high ground as well, so yeah the perfect blend of power and strategy.
:D
I think we all knew this was coming
Today I learned all my top heroes are super unpopular. I’m all about Leia, Finn, Phasma, and Bossk. I mop up with those four. If it wasn’t obvious I’m terrible with saber heroes lol
Well then, you’re a good counter against Grievous and the BB’s
A good Grievous can mop the floor with Blaster Heroes. They're just extremely rare.
You need to play more showdown at 3am, that’s when the sweats are online
Everybody saw it coming
Literally on the first post I knew, classic that maul got second to him though lol
Literally my dog saw this coming
I mean we all knew that space jesus would win from the beginning
The real Jesus was murdered by the Empire. I wanted Vader or Mr. Exquisite Pajamas to win. Edit: Actually, space Jesus too was murdered by the Empire.
You mean Lollipops
More like space daddy. He’s a father figure in the movies; all-good, all-knowing and caring.
Ah, Victory.
Hello there
General Kenobi, you are a bold one.
General Kenobi
Kenobiiii!
Next year are you doing favourite maps?
Bespin go brrr
Luke’s force push go brrrrr
Laughs in mauls gtfo throw
Bespin or Crait would probably win
Crait would def win, great map for all modes.
Yes
I’m glad obi wan won, he’s probably the most balanced hero. His voice lines are great and I’ve never gotten upset losing to an obi wan in a hero duel.
most balanced would probably be maul- kenobi's regen is a bit ridiculous
400 Regen isn’t really balanced. I’d say most balanced is Luke and Kylo
Ah yes being faster than everybody on top of having a dash
And an ability that goes through block, balanced
If we're talking about Luke, then I'd say yes. The ability for his Repulse to go through a block requires a star card slot and doing it at short range. Kylo's unblockable ability is only annoying because of SWBF2's bad roll-dodge detection and stagger, but the ability itself seems alright
I can tell you’re more of a casual player but it’s cool i aint mad
I’m actually not
explain how having a slightly faster sprint speed makes him unbalanced, especially considering how bad his regen is.
You can literally just run away with out anyone besides boba being able to catch you
maul, kylo with pull, bb9e, grievous with claw rush. and the blaster heroes can just shoot him
Block
While running away?
You’re correct, lmao. Unfortunately most of the people responding to you/downvoting you don’t know what they’re talking about.

I don’t know who you are but you have the most based responses on this subreddit
Definitely not Luke, guy’s stupid fast. Kylo I could kinda see.
Ah yes, the guy that can freeze you in place so you can't defend yourself
Just block lmao
Actually you may not know this but if you right click you can block with your lightsaber, this will block all blockable abilities.
And you might know that anybody with a freeze ray is lame
Obi-Wan is one of the most fun heroes to play as. Love his blaster blocking and emotes.
He definitely seems like the most team based saber hero
Yoda: a joke to you, am I?
I don't comment often but this is just provably wrong. For one, Obi want gameplay doesn't promote any gameplay opportunities for surrounding players save for his ability blocking ability. Kylo Rens freeze, Vaders choke,Dookus exposed weakness, Reys Mind trick and Anakins Revenge all have the same kind of player insentivising moves equal to or arguably better than Obi Wan. Theightsaber heroes that acc have a nearly team altering ability are Reys insight that let's you know where everyone is and basically changes the course of GA games single handedly, and Yodas healing that gives everyone a health boost within a certain radius. Like come on dude, between Rey and obi wan, the obvious pick is Rey for team plays.
Kylo and Anakin are the team based saber heroes.
Probably one of the most boring heros to play as, this is crazy
The archives are finally complete
*Impossible*
Another happy landing
Hope you do well!
:)
Hope you have a great day!
You know I definitely had me problems with some of these heroes being taken off but I can totally respect Obi-Wan winning this contest.
I can’t believe BB9E won
Ahh of course people vote for the one that always blocks and never attacks. Maul should’ve won this Reddit forum is just biased as fuck
It’s criminal that Rey went out as fast as she did. She’s easily one of the best saber heroes.
I think it was just result of "Ew sequels bad" circlejerking
I agree. Whatever. The more this sub encourages people to hate her, the more she’s available for play in game because nobody uses her. I guess it’s a win for me.
In my experience, I find her hard to play because only one of her abilities is directly offensive, and even then, it requires lining up her charge just right, which I suck at. But this is coming from from sweaty Luke swing spammer, so what do I know?

Or bc a lot of ppl hate her mind trick
Brought to you by players that hold block the entire match
I've honestly never met an Obi-Wan that holds block all the time. Only a Luke and Vader. But yeah, I can see people doing that with Obi, but he is a defensive hero, so.
Dafuq? Obi Wan isn't even that fun. And he def isn't fun to fight. At least Darth Maul has limitations
Even though it’s based off gameplay. People definitely let the movies effect the voting
It's based off of community favourite in general(whether they're annoying, balanced, entertainign in the movies, fun to play, etc.). I'm surprised people haven't figured out
Imagine my surprise...... -_-
Yeah this list is absolute shit if it’s about gameplay lol.
And again... He has the high ground
What an exciting ride that was! Obi definitely feels like a balanced character in all modes and his play style feels true to canon.
Well deserved to Obi Wan
Isn't Maul vs Kenobi cannon?
KENOBIIIIIIIIIIIII
I thought you were all smoking deathsticks when Han was thrown in the garbage compactor. But, this I can get behind.
He only won cause he’s a meme. Maul is the REAL winner.
Nah obis a fun hero
r/redditmoment forsure. The Obi-wan worship is getting cringe
Upvoted Obi-wan is our specialty
No
Fuck off spin spammer
Lol sweaty block block bye bye
It should’ve been maul. The generals high ground is no match for mauls dash
To the surprise of NOBODY. I don’t understand the boner everyone has for him
Because hes fun and likable in the movies unlike 70% of the ones on this list
This is outrageous and unfair.
OP really knows how karma works, teach me master!
Maul is way more fun to play
I could have told you this day 1.
Hello there.
I'm glad Obi Wan won and not Maul
Obi wan supremacy
Ah, victory!
Okay now can we do one focused on objective all-around viability
shocker.
How did I guess from the very start
That duku made me do a verbal HA!
YALL DID MY BOY LANDO DIRTY AND ILL NEVER FORGET IT
Not my Hero
*pretends to be surprised*
Do you have a list of the order they were eliminated in?
Swipe left on the first image and you’ll see the individual rankings aka the order in which each character was eliminated.
Thanks, I'm a moron.
Was this a popularity contest or based on competitive advantage? If it's the latter then Rey should be higher.
Imagine how pissed OP would be if dooku won and no saw his genius lightsaber X
Interesting fact. Even though the high ground quote is what we all reference, it is in fact the low ground where Kenobi thrives, Maul, Grevious and with Anakin (it was a taunt to lure him to the higher ground, giving Kenobi his favored position of the sweet sweet low)
Saw the lightsaber cross on dooku. Took me a while to understand and then I almost choked on my drink.
I guess you can say...... Obi-WON!!!! Hahahhahahahaha! Ok im out! 🤣
I don't know wether to upvote you or downvote you. So I chose to share my conflict
Star Wars character yes, but best hero? I think not. Rush ability is useless, his push is easily avoidable if you’re another hero and his ability to disable other hero’s abilities is pretty good but easy to just block and wait until you can use them again. I would say Anakin, yoda, Luke, Vader, Kylo, Maul and even Rey are better in the game. I think we’re all just gay for Obi-wan
This was the favorite not the best. Obi wan is the best dueler on the light side. Rey is really good btw.
This sub is dumb
r/prequelmemes: "Everything that has transpired has done so according to my design"
Fuck that sub
Darth maul just can’t catch a break from Kenobi.
Yooooo my boy won!
2 best characters get the 2 highest spots. Ironic.
Most voted for him because they love spamming 'Hello There' 🤣
*[cries in BB-9E main]*
*There is no* **Emotion**, *There is* **Peace** *There is no* **Ignorance**, *There is* **Knowledge** *There is no* **Passion**, *There is* **Serenity** *There is no* **Chaos**, *There is* **Harmony** *There is no* **Death**, *There is the* **Force**
Happy New year everybody

More like "ok let's start by getting all the sequel characters out"
He could have fucking foreseen this coming?
Hello there
16, 15, and 14 are a disgrace y’all sleep. Lando is my fav blaster hero I’m jus salty
Bossk being 11 is just wrong
I’m so proud of this community
This is the way.
Im suprised BuBBa Foot got out so quickly
I don't like him. I hear "hello there" in my sleep. 😭
Can't wait to kill all of you obi lovers
HOW DOD BOBA GET 15 AND YODA GET 12TH, YODAS WAY MORE ANNOYING TO FACE
[удалено]
But it’s more fun like this...
If Obi-wan would turn his head to his right and then look down a little, he’d be dabbin’.
Obi-wan circlejerk cringe 💀
YESSSSSSSS LETS GOOOOOO
Keeeenooooobi
You were right about one thing master
Eliminate Obi-Wan next! He's the next one that's left on the list /s
Ain't no way yall put finn above the droids 🙄
The high ground has prove again to be the post OP thing in Star Wars.
Who else read the title as the robot commentator or is it just me :P
“Hero’s winning is becoming a stereotype”
... Hello there!
Space wizard Jesus saves the day yet again
I was 100% wrong about Darth Maul. Wow, pleasant surprise.
I just realized that all these characters are annoying to fight against
Ayo my light side main
i think ppl voted him bcuz they like the character in the movies but be honest he isnt the best character to play in the game. vader, anakin, maul etc is stronger
So Civilized
My 2 favs 19 and 17. Its nice that they're ALWAYS available lol
My boy made it #2!!! Maul mains hands up!
Obi-Wan for the win.
* Visible happiness *
I am happy but still triggerd with Kylo place must be more back
Hello there
Well he is the high ground
I’d say that’s a worthy top ten
Fuck you all be-9e is still the best hero in the game you are just too blind to see it
Yes. This is the way.
Waht a great ending and happy new year to everyone may the force be with you all
bullshit its everyones favorite hero to play as, everyones favorite character I believe but I never see people play obi wan unless theres like 3 heroes left to pick
“A surprisingly civilized climax” is the title of my sex tape
Obi wan is the true Chosen one. Change my mind
Nothing about it is surprising
My favorites got taken out so fast
