@@simon-peterwilliamson2412 no, literally kylo will out DPS anakin every time, and he will mega drain his stam, even more so if he has massive strikes on. However anakin can either pull or repulse during that, but pull is slow and will get him damaged still (not recommended to pull a kylo who is attacking you as you are vunlerable). Repulse though would cancel frenzy and then the encounter is in kylo. Anakin got hit hard with a massive strikes UNNECESSARY nerf so he really is not that great while KYLO literally is one of the best villains in the game. so... no its not "based on the player" as encounters start to go a certain way at extremely high skill ranks. Obviously the game is about timing
dead meme Kylo can barely swing it without hitting it on the ground, his technique is sloppy and gets his ass handed to him by someone who never used a lightsaber before and has a hard time defeating a combatant who lacks force sensitivity. Anakin in his prime was able to defeat several seasoned warriors such as ventress and Dokku as well as defeating several trained Jedi and pushed Obi Wan Kenobi to his limit in their fight and if he had not succumbed to his arrogance he would have defeated him. Anakin would defeat Kylo In under a minute and I doubt he would even need to draw upon his anger in order to do so
@@kingsman5121 K, but remember Kylo was actively trying not to kill Rey and was hit in the side by Chewie's bowcaster, also, he was devastated because he fucking killed his dad
It's actually the kind of opposite. In the clone wars he used this to subdue both the Dark side embodiment of the force called the Son and the Light side embodiment of the force called The Daughter. Basically force Gods. By doing that he was the balance of the force. Which was the purpose of the chosen one bringing balance to the force.
@@freezalo7521 Him becoming Vader is what brought balance to the force. He got rid of Jedi that were too many in number, and the only main jedi that were left before luke were kenobi and yoda, and the main sith were vader and palpatine. 2 for 2, then when Kenobi and Yoda died, so did palpatine and vader. But Palpatine somehow survived and that left one jedi, luke with one sith, sidious.
@@ashuradarklighter4822 that’s not what balance in Star Wars means, balance means the destruction of the sith because they represent and embrace a corrupted version of the force that the force itself actively tries to destroy. That comes from George Lucas himself. plagueis was attempting to create the ultimate dark side user by creating life through the force, the force itself retaliated by creating anakin.
Ahh the days when Anakin could one shot everybody with heroic might, passionate strike ragdolled, pull was even stronger, and retribution was known as the win button
Imagine that Vader. Totally ready to choke him when he got out of the Retribution, but Palpatine's lightning rebounded and broke his guard and he died.
I wish it was kept long like this, damage should’ve been the same but all they needed to do was make it take longer to get. It’s not as cool when it takes 20 years to get it and it lasts 2 seconds.
Thank you. I understand his initial 2-3 nerfs. But after they KEPT netting him for no reason he became such a basic ass hero. He was introduced to the game to fill in the power gap between light and dark side. Now he’s just there to be there
It's just looks so badass when you get in the middle of troops and activate retribution. The sound effects for it sound badass as well. Nice video tho.
I love how all the blaster fire comes to a stop and everything falls silent except the retribution sound which makes the ability sound even more powerful
Actually I always said Dice should make the 2 BB unit heroes immune to Vader's choke and Anakin's retribution. It's just looking so dumb. Choking a droid? It's like drowning a fish in water...
0:15 that one B2 is just as unlucky as I get usually. I begin feeling victorius taking down a hero on my own, then they manage to survive with a speck of health.
I remember during launch Anakin’s retribution would happen so often to the point I wouldn’t even get angry when getting choked out as the villains, I would just laugh so hard b/c of how ridiculous it was happening every 5 seconds
It’s crazy because when I first started playing I didn’t know this was a thing for like a whole month 😂 nor did I ever see anyone use it. But I loaded In with someone and I had died so I had to spectate him. Not only did that guy teach me that, but in general taught me how to duel in general.
I didn't mind retribution being this powerful, even though I hated the concept of a 4th ability. What I did mind, however, was the range on Heroic Might and how it would only get larger because nobody read the patch notes and nobody realized to stop shooting him while he was charging it. He was OP yeah, but they nerfed him one too many times so now he's buggy as hell and has no stamina. Thankfully his abilities are OP by design so you can still get by, it's just a lot harder now.
It didn't one shot them on it's own, they had some blasters shooting on them during the choke. It used to deal 510 damage though to heroes which was Godly OP
@@mohitnigam03 I think they should buff that ability again (seeing as he IS the chosen one) but any external damage taken (other teammates) are halved or even not affected. Meaning no more of your teammates shredding while they're slowly being choked
Yea right? Ive thought about this before. Grievious ult would be him being able to smoothly use all 4 of his lightsabers for some time, Palpatine could pull out a lightsaber like in episode 3 and go super saiyan, Maul maybe gets a damage buff, health and speed increase, Kylo either pulls everyone around him towards him or freezes them, maybe with a follow up attack, Dooku maybe does a really strong lightning strike that throws people away so basically a ranged attack as Dooku needs it and yea, its hard to think of some Especially for the blaster heroes, but it would make this really cool and it would have brought more variety into this game, though its not like theyre gonna add anything anymore as ea had to go ahead and ruin this shit for us... again
unfortunately dice decided to drop battlefront at its peak highest to go work on failure 6 oh sorry i mean battlefield failure 6. I also find it funny how everyone was screaming we want ashoka and ventress but instead we get a beach ball and bowling ball as well as a broken finn glitch. But i agree 4th abilities for all heros would have been awesome
I mean it's lowkey good that they nerfed Anakin to make it more balanced, but who else just misses being able to take over the entire lobby as him? (If you were lucky enough to snag him because he would stay alive hella long 😂)

They should return it to the original retribution but make it so that affected players don't receive damage from other sources while being choked.
