I decided to make this thread for Merlin vs Revenge of the Sith Sidious at first. Then I thought, well in case Merlin is only going to stomp him without effort then he's from the Rise of Skywalker film.So is this Lucas Star Wars Palpatine or Disney?
So you are using Disney canon/continuity then. When it comes to Star Wars matches, I would recommend in the future specifying in your OP or title if its Lucas or Disney as the power levels and abilities are quite contrasting between them, just as a heads up.I decided to make this thread for Merlin vs Revenge of the Sith Sidious at first.

First, what you need to know about Merlin is that his raw force potential is capable of eradicating entire mountains. He's never seen doing anything close to that, but this fact is from several statements made about him. He is also capable of weaponizing a thunderstorm by telekinetically forcing the clouds to form/move. He has very high magic resistance, so he will likely not be one shot by Force Lightning, and he can't die by getting hit with instant death spells. He can still suffer damage to his body with weapons, and be cut up (though this is never seen), and can feel pain, so he can still lose a battle like this, but he can't die. His lightning spells gradually killed hundreds/thousands of soldiers at the series finale.So you are using Disney canon/continuity then.

I have no idea what Merlin's actual feats are.
If the Force counts as magic then it's not likely to work.How good is his Mind Resistance so that will legit be Palpatine's first move?
Merlin’s speed isn’t that high, reacting to arrows and crossbow bolts would out him at subsonic. Don’t remember anyone reacting to lightning spells.
Might be able to get something out of this for his dc.
Creating a thunderstorm with those storm clouds and calling down lightning.
It doesn't work that way. Even Disney canon Palpatine can casually mind-control thousands of Senators and keep the Shroud of Dark Side up that disabled the entire Jedi Order's entire precognitive and long range clairvoyance abilities for a decade across the galaxy.If the Force counts as magic then it's not likely to work.

How fast is Merlin? Fast enough to avoid getting torn to pieces by Sidious being on him in a blink of an eye? Cause as much as certain "people" like to claim otherwise, *cough*Echkartsladder*cough* *ahem*spergbattles*ahem* Force users, even weaksauce disney ones are fast enough to react to blaster fire and incoming proton torpedos, which are far from slow despite claims.
That doesn't look fast at all.He is fast enough to devastate armies like this just by pointing his stick.
No, it's not that fast but I mean if you look closely, it's evident he doesn't even have to point with it. It's done with sheer will power. Also, I'm not sure how fast he is. It's one of his few weaknesses.That doesn't look fast at all.
Plus I meant things like how quick is he to react to incoming attacks or how fast he moves.
Yeah, so lightning strikes aren't gonna be touching Palpatine. Cause as far as I'm aware, Force Lightning is about as fast as actual lightning as even in-universe it was described as little more than electricity generated by force powers. And the likes of Yoda, Obi-Wan, and Mace Windu, all peers of Palpatine are more than capable of reacting to and defending against it.No, it's not that fast but I mean if you look closely, it's evident he doesn't even have to point with it.

But can merlin call down lightning while trying to avoid getting his organs crushed by a force push? All this as Palpatine dashes and jumps about so quickly that he leaves bullets in the dust.This is an interesting point. However, Merlin might actually hit Palpatine with it since he doesn't need to expend any effort to actually fire it. That might actually work for a single strike.

BTW you're lucky you're using Disney Canon Palpatine, cause EU Palpatine is far, far, far, far stronger.
And there's the main question. Is Merlin fast enough or has enough magical artillery on his side to prevent Palpatine from closing the gap and cutting him into ribbons?Yeah I realize EU Palpatine would just cream him.
However, I don't think Palpatine could do all that to Merlin because of his magic resistance. He could try to saber him though.
