This is what makes Anakin so special

Before elaborating on the thread, let's clarify a few things first. I want to mention a few words about on Anakin and the actor who portrays him, won't keep it long, no worries.

Hayden Christensen is a pretty good actor, he did well in prequels. If Lucas had written a better acript for him, he would shine even more.

Anakin's my fav hero in all SW saga, besides the fact that I met with the original trilogy in 1997 when it was a time for A New Hope's 20th anniversary and Special Editions of the ANH/ESB/ROTJ were shown in the theaters in that year. I was 11 years old and dazzled by the magic of them. Ever since, I'm just a hardcore fanboy of SW.

So I'm more of a original trilogy person but I'm also one of the guys who appreciates how the prequels connected the story of the whole thing and completed the circle as well. Of course the prequels has their own flaws in so many ways, but they don't deserve the hate they get by some fans, it's just not fair.

The Godfather: Part III is a subpar movie compared to the first 2 movies but that doesn't mean that it's a bad movie. Same thing applies with prequels vs originals.

Now back to the thread.

Anakin Skywalker.
Son of the Force.
The Chosen One.
Highest midi-chlorian rate any Jedi has ever had.
Was so close to reach his full potential to become the greatest Jedi Knight in the galaxy.
His injuries on Mustafar limited his physical abilities but made him stronger in the ways of the Force.

For a long time Anakin was so underrated in these forums. Because people just didn't farm him as it needed an ultimate grinding, so few of us saw his unique abilities.

His health pool is pretty vast, his damage is good. His unique with %90 turn meter gain with a taunt tank like Han Solo or Poe Dameron makes him go frenzy. But his most important trait lies in his basic.

Buff immunity.

Ladies and gentlemen, please check the screenshots of one of my arena games below.

You'll see what he did there.

Because of his buff immunity, Leia couldn't go into stealth even though she used the skill to.

I'll post more screenshots to prove that he can also cripple tanks' taunt ability.

Buff immunity is a game breaker trait, I only saw that ability on Nightsister Acolyte besides Anakin.
