Ok, so first of all, this shouldn´t be a troll thread or clickbait.
Back to topic:
In many threads or discussion, a lot of people wants Mace Windu a pure beast and he should deserve more love.
And i never really understood.
Is it because of Samuel L. Jackson?
Because regarding due to his actions in the movie, i would say his toon is good as it is....
Reading his wookipedia article we could argue about his abilities and power level who should get a small touch up. But serious, why should he be better than Ki-Adi, GAS, JKL, Kenobi, etc.?
Please response with serious arguments!

There is absolute no use for him at the moment, even some could argue that Jedi Consular has more use than him. His kit is more than outdated.
With that said, he was second in command only to Yoda, which says a lot.
Also, his technique in lightsaber dueling was unique and really powerful. We saw how effective he was against probably one of the most powerful characters in the story, Emperor Palpatine. Palp destroyed every single jedi that entered his office, other than Mace.
Lastly, a character that is indeed played by Samuel L. Jackson, hints that he is probably somewhat of significance to the story. Why would you pay an actor of his caliber to play an unimportant character?
Don't make sense!
In the Game: Leave him as trash as he is, get over it.
Why leave him as is? He definitely needs a touch-up for me!
I would argue for a rework, but with the work CG puts i will be fine with a touch-up!
Because his goal was the Anakin's corruption, not killing Mace per se. He played both Mace and Anakin in that scene. Yoda was without any doubt the strongest Jedi at the time, yet Palp won in the direct combat, so Mace hardly had any real chance.
It was confirmed by star wars that palpatine lost to mace because mace was better, not because palp wanted to lose
But, if I remember correctly the first jedi slain, the zabarak, was a stronger duelist than Mace. Hence why Palpatine removed him before the fight started. Sadly the Fister gets punked.
A zeta on Mace sounds good. A GL? Eh pass.
Also, societal trends. What was Disenys emergency pr lady saying the other day?
How dare you.
I never seen any direct confirmation of this claim in the canon. But the text of Revenge of the Sith novelization clearly says that Windu couldn't kill Palpatine on his own and relied on Anakin to do that, but realized that Palpatine have no fear at all of this and completely trust Anakin.
Calling Samuel L Jackson a 'garbage' actor is either a troll, or fueld by some, ah, other point of view.
He's anything but.
Boring character, not worthy of anything more than a zeta.
Mace has also received 2 minor touchups in the past (damage increase to both basic and special, and another to make his expose irresistible). Not that either did much to improve his usefulness. Maybe if he had a 100% chance to inflict taunt and 3x expose on a random enemy for shatterpoint, leaving the character dazed or armor shred afterward if he crit, or some similarly better mechanic than a random expose he often can't target.
This scene makes me laugh every time.
But not in a good way.
Your replies make me laugh every time.
But not in a good way.
If you watched the clone wars series, you saw the overall power of the Jedi and what they were capable of. Jedi like Mace, Plo Koon, Kit Fisto, Ayala Secura, and Luminara all need reworks to bring them to relevancy. Nobody is asking them to be meta, however at relic level and proper synergy they should be able to do reliably well in LS GEO TB and be on the level of GG teams elsewhere in the game. They’re unusable right now and the only GR Jedi with any worth right now are GK, Ashoka, and JKA on a padme team. Maybe Barris too but she could also be used on JML, a GL.
This.
"Wars not make one GL"
Please don't forget the little dude.
Time to nerf B2 big time.
That's the official version, but it doesnt make it true. Ask a random person on the street for a random SW character, they will say Darth Vader. Not Fallen Anakin, but Darth Vader. Half of the ppl who have seen ep 7-9 havent got a single clue who th is Kylo Ren. Same goes for Rey tbf, it suits disney, and i dont scoff CG for turning her into a GL, but she isnt iconic anyway. Probably bb8 made a more powerful impact than her and i am not even kidding here.
For me "Legends" are: Palpi, Vader, D/JK Revan, Luke (not SkypeLuke, RoTJ Luke), Yoda, Mandalore the Great. These are the ppl who were known (by name at least) close to everyone in the Galaxy during their lifespawn.
Since this is strictly personal I could easily imagine ppl adding to this list as per their own taste. You may argue for Valkorion, but he is just a Palpatine wannabe imo and not in this game either. One could name some Sith like Bane, yeah, i could live with them too.
(Funnily enough, probably Holdo made herself a name across the galaxy too after her "Now that's podracing!" moment. Still not a GL)
Mace being a GL is debatable, least to say. Kenobi is a good candidate too. Then again, keep in mind, that title itself (Galactic Legend) is made up by CG and doesnt mean too much to the Lore, sooo it makes little to no difference whatsoever.
Jabba and Boba Fett would also be known across the galaxy using your definition so I’m all for it.
