Why is the Chosen One so weak in SWGoH?
Everyone knows that the Chosen One was Anakin Skywalker. The Star Wars franchise is the story of the Skywalkers and how Anakin's choices affect the universe. Why then is Anakin and Vader so weak in SWGoH?

EDIT: Real reply, because they came so early in the game and are currently outdated. I would not be surprised to see a rework in the near future.
I agree Anakin should be much stronger and ‘chosen one’ is an indicator of strength. All of the prequels are just people talking about how strong Anakin is because of the prophecy.
Wasn't that a bug when Vader was good?
Anyway Vader isn't the best character in the world in arena but he is a great character for raids.
A small upgrade would be good. But it isn't essential. A rework for other empirenor Sith characters would do more to bring Vader out.
What you should really be asking is..."Why is Yoda, the most powerful Jedi in canon, so weak in SWOH?"
lol
At least they had a plot; unlike the sequel trilogy.
Impressive. Every word in that sentence was wrong.
Also, I never said anything about the prequels. I'm only talking about the prophecy. If you disagree with me on something, address the topic at hand.
I'm all for the devs adding new toons...but rework some old ones as well and make them more viable so there is more to chose from on this game.
TB was supposed to allow us to use our full roster...I didn't know using our full roster was gonna be for deploying in each phase only. It would be nice to actually "play" older toons and not only play...but actually have a chance to fight well against other newer meta teams.
I meant even without a bug that only really helped for the Rancor raid.
Vader used to be viable as a leader in arena when shoretrooper was first released, though that was very short as Maul took over and then Rex, Chaze, and then Jedi with R2. He used to be one of the main characters to solo the Rancor raid with his lead ability, but as the game went on the raid became more and more trivial. He was ok for the HAAT raid, but was always weak compared to clones, and Resistance, and then gradually he kittened more and more for that raid as more and more characters and reworks were released.
Well, some would say ... that someone being George Lucas, that Anakin is the Chosen One. So, if you have a problem with who the Chosen One is you can take it up with the creator of Star Wars. The real question is why SWGoH deviates so far from Star Wars cannon.
EA is the one that said they love the canon. They cant make a pink Vader because it would ruin their adherence to canon. Not sure what difficulties they are having with programming faction teams.
I am sure you can understand why you dont have CUP the most powerful character in the game. The same reason why you shouldnt have a farm boy who had a few months of training be the most powerful character. It only stands to reason.
Are you dumb?
Other than the fact that you keep misspelling "canon" I have no idea what any of this is supposed to mean.
If you think JKA is too weak, remember, according to “canon” he was barely a jedi knight. He had power to burn but no discipline, no control over himself, only control over the force and Palpatine made sure of this. If he wouldve been more patient he would’ve been on the council and Palpatine wouldn’t have been able to corrupt him. I think the game accurately reflects this, JKA is probably in around the top 5 of best jedi in the game but, he’s not the best.
If you think Vader is weak, well, he was a crippled old man in constant pain because of the suit he needed to wear to simply stay alive. He was forced to use the force to see, breathe, and even move. Hardly a powerhouse in his prime and again, imo, the game accurately reflects this.
I could be, but its hard to say when you insult rather than offer any sort of argument for me to respond to.
You can believe whatever you want. George Lucas already said that Anakin is the Chosen One.
