Mace Windu - why should he be a GL or stronger in general? Serious Question

There is much more lore about Mace in books and comics than the movies, also true in general. If you go into collector bookstores you'll find ceiling high shelves of star wars books. Resigning your knowledge of Star Wars genre to movies is like resigning your knowledge of cars to go carts.

Mace is/was the only jedi who could use Force Choke (a dark-side ability) due to Vapaad (his lightsaber technique, may be off on spelling). His technique alone makes him up there with some other legendary jedi

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.

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

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.

We have a ton of characters with far less screen time who get zetas so it isn’t a big ask

My guess is that it's due to Mace being a 4* bronzium unlock character. That perhaps limits how good the character can be. Or the fact that jkr's kit stunted the touchups of other jedi due to balance issues.

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.

From a lore perspective he was second in command essentially after Yoda in the entire Jedi Order so he was clearly powerful and in the movies while people say he didn’t do much, he did defeat palpatine in 1v1 combat and killed Jango who was a prolific Jedi Killer (that part may be legends now I’m not sure). Yet In game he’s arguably one of the worst Jedi we have which doesn’t feel right. That’s my reasoning behind wanting him to get a rework and sure you could say that not everyone powerful in lore is automatically good in game but mace is beyond awful so he deserves to be at least a toon you actually want to put into a team

This scene makes me laugh every time.

But not in a good way.

Your replies make me laugh every time.

I'd like to see him get a touch up, he could be useful plus he's got a capital ship, so why not. Also I'd like to see Jedi Council added to the filter of factions.
