Ok, I'm doing this earlier this time around  . I'm very pleased to see 9 entries this week! Ok, here goes (there are SOOOOO many GREAT entries this week): Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice (Gungan Batman Clone) 9 Powerful for his cost, but not overly so. I think he turned out quite well! Nice job, GBC! Luke Skywalker, Rescuer (Lord Ball) 10 Everything; the ability selection, the CE, the Camaraderie... It's perfect. Nicely executed, and seems balanced too. Luke Skywalker, Dreamer (CorranHornsux123) 10 Firstly, nice name :). Secondly, nice custom SA names lol. Abilities are nice, HCHGF is PERFECT, because with R7's running around, it's hard to choose Rebel R2's usually. His abilities fit very well, and he has powerful potential at essentially 20 points, in the right squads. Luke Skywalker, Return of the Jedi (CerousMutor) 9 I love how he's cleaned up now. Very nice version of Luke; powerful to be sure, but not overly so, methinks. Focus fits nicely. I might make Dark Side Hunter not work on Seps (Vong, even though this is a REBEL Luke would fit better, imo), but it's really up to you on how you want it to work for the given piece. It's a great ability no matter who it works on, that I wish I had thought of myself Luke Skywalker, Rogue Leader (Deathwielded) 9 I can see Rescue being like Escape Death; powerful, if used on certain pieces (EPIC's maybe), I definitely love the ability. Epic CE. UTF with Critical Wound is AMAZING! VERY powerful on this piece though. The lack of him having Flurry himself balances it I think. Awesome custom man! Commander Skywalker of Hoth (poppins88) 8 Glad to see you back this week, man! Escape Death is definitely a VERY, VERY powerful ability, and I think it fits fine on Luke himself here (though he can get Force Spirit to reroll it twice per attempt easily in Rebels), but giving it out to everyone of his Hoth buddies could be an issue. Especially with Ani-Force Spirit giving out Mettle, and many Force Spirit options to grant force points/MotF. I think some of those pieces could use the help, but I'd go with Avoid Defeat. Besides this, everything fits. CE is great, and everything fits Luke on Hoth. Except for Lightsaber; he already has base 20 and Melee, I'd take it off. Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice (AndyHatton) 10 The powerhouse of Luke Skywallker customs's entry... It does NOT disappoint! Such an awesome custom Luke. Every ability is picture perfect. You may have second guessed yourself picking a low-cost Luke, but I think you made the right choice; this is a great entry! You get my vote, and I doubt it will be the only one.  Luke Skywalker, Jedi-in-Training (saber1) 9 A strong entry; everything fits Luke in training. Bond is awesome. Backpack is... Interesting... lol. Nicely balanced, great job. ANNND, in summary, my vote goes to AndyHatton . And, now I go to open my first booster EVER with my neighbor who got me into the game!

Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice by Gungan Batman Clone
This piece turned out nicely. He's a decent shooter who has pilot synergy. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Rescuer by Lord_Ball
Cleave and Aggressive Negotiations are cool. Camaraderie is an original choice and I like it giving an underperformer a chance to shine. The CE is interesting. 8.75
Luke Skywalker, Dreamer by CorranHorsux123
This is tremendously thematic piece. Kudos for that. However, it feels a bit overboard in the "abilities with movie quotes" arena. The Obi and R2 interactions are great. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Return of the Jedi by CerousMutor
Force Focus is a neat power. This is a solid melee Luke. The problem here is that it isn't as strong a melee piece as LSHoE yet costs more. 8.25
Luke Skywalker, Rogue Leader by Deathwielded
Super strong CE. Love it! Rescue should be toned down a bit, me thinks. I like the piloty potential but with zero defensive abilities, he seems fragile. Critical Wound/UtF is great! 9
Commander Skywalker of Hoth by poppins88
The Camaraderie is cool. I like the second part of the CE, but I'm no fan of the first part. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice by AndyHatton
Great piece. Big damage potential with piloty synergy. Might be a bit too cheap. 9
Luke Sywalker, Hero of Tatooine by pegolego
Sweet bit of customizing. I like that he competes with LSHoE and can be swapped via Versatility. Not much to nitpick here other than a lowish damage/cost ratio. Brilliant. 9.5
Voting for pegolego this week.

I didn’t think it did, because it was a different style of piece, I should have stuck with my gut, meh.

Not a lot of time this week so I will vote and rate then comment later.
Gungan Batman Clone's Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice 9
Lord_Ball's Luke Skywalker, Rescuer 8.75
CorranHorsux123's Luke Skywalker, Dreamer 8.5
CerousMutor's Luke Skywalker, Return of the Jedi 8.25
Deathwielded's (mine) Luke Skywalker, Rogue Leader
poppins88's Commander Skywalker of Hoth 9.25
AndyHatton's Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice 10
pegolego's Luke Sywalker, Hero of Tatooine 10
Saber1's Luke Skywalker, Jedi-in-Training 10
Very tough choice between Saber1, Pegolego, and AndyHattons. I could easily see myself playing as any of these versions. I like all of them for very different reasons, but I'm gonna go with AndyHattons

Gungan Batman Clone, Jedi Apprentice 8.5
Apprentice is pretty cool, but I don't think Synergy should have been paired with it here.
Pegolego, Hero of Tatooine 9
fairly good representation here, only issue is that he definitely feels catered to versatility instead of being his own. for 1 point and a slight reduction in stats gain Twin!
CorranHornsux123, Dreamer 8.25
"But I Don't Want To Wait Another Year" is a waste of space here as it's just rapport with a bunch of extra letters. "That would Lead them...Home" is interesting but feels clunky. Not so sure surprise attack really fits this time frame for Luke.
CerousMutor, Return of the Jedi 8.5
Ability selection is nice, but the stats can get a bit crazy here. Force Focus would probably be better served on a character with weaker stats.
Deathwielded, Rogue Leader 8.75
Lightsaber Attack is interesting and I understand the desire for it, I think you'd could clean it up a bit (go with sort of a combination of Lightsaber and Shaper).
poppins88, Commander Skywalker of Hoth 8.25
Handing out Escape Death through Camaraderie is probably a bit much here. The Tuantuan portion of the CE would be a bit cleaner if you just went the General Kenobi route (move an extra 2 squares) sure you lose 2 squares on the double move, but I don't think that really changes the functionality and as I said would feel much cleaner.
AndyHatton, Jedi Apprentice 9.25
I like how Sense the Future includes a drawback of sorts here. Very interesting take and a good custom indeed - probably could use a slight cost boost (largely due to how well Pilot CEs compliment him).
saber1, Jedi-in-training 9
I like At Peace as an interesting take to renewal. Definitely not your run-of-the-mill Luke. Not sure why but I just don't seem to care for Luke's Backpack - I get its flightless tow cable for smalls, just not sure it's an ability that needs to be introduced.
AndyHatton gets my vote

Looking back at him, I definitely see as he is probably too good a Vers. option. It was actually a bit of an afterthought, but I definitely made sure he could be used for it, and I may have made it too likely. I think the other one is probably better in a lot of cases (Overwhelming Force is awesome obviously), but this one still could probably stand a bit of a tone-down.

I think it is abudantly clear that I really like Luke Skywalker, and everyone's entries this week are so good this is going to be very very hard. I'm so excited!
Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice by GBC: I like the Force Powers and limited pool as his synergy works well with Jedi Spirit Ben. I'm not sure about Reflect but I suppose it depends on the time frame. I do like a lot of what is here though and Use The Force is always a great Luke power. 9
Luke Skywalker, Hero of Tatooine by pegolego I mentioned in the comments of the piece that I like it and not much has changed my opinion. A very nice Sail Barge Luke. 9.5
Luke Skywalker, Rescuer by Lord_Ball another Jabba Luke and I really like this version too. That whole sequence might be my favorite moment in Star Wars and I'd love the next V-set Luke to focus on that. I really like Cleave and helping out the lousy Leia, I'm just really not sold on Clamp. I can see the thought process I just don't know. 9
Luke Skywalker, Dreamer by CHS123 this is a really interesting idea and I like it a lot, it really captures young Luke and the second he truly decides to fight for the Rebellion. Synergy doesn't bump damage so I'm not sure how I feel about that, and Force Total and powers seems a little off, maybe just Surprise Move and no attack, but overally very interesting. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Return of the Jedi by CerousMutor I'm glad you changed from Diplomat to AN because even now he has a lot with Triple and a bunch of HP, and Force Focus. It actually still concerns me a bit, but you are paying a lot for it so I think it should be fine. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Rogue Leader by deathwielded Lightsaber Attack is a nice way to get around the oddly ruled Lightsaber, I very much like Willing to Serve on Luke (and pretty much any Rogue Leader oddly enough given their name) and I like the Crit boost handed out to pilots as well as Use the Force, although is UTF and Critical Wound too much together? I'm actually surprised we didn't see more Rogue Leader Lukes 8.5
Commander Skywalker of Hoth by poppins88 Boosting the subpar Unique Hoth Rebels is great and actually creates a very interesting hard to kill Hoth subfaction with Leia, and the SpecForce Survival guys from the last v-set. It might be a bit much and could probably be paired down to Avoid Defeat or just Twin. I like the CE a lot, it is an interesting Hoth CE for Luke and we are in desperate need of a Luke with a CE for the Rebels. 8.5
Luke Skywalker, Jedi-in-Training by saber1 At Peace is an awesome Jedi Ability, and I really like it on Luke, the backpack ability is really cool, I think this has a bunch of great stuff going for it and the abilities and FP seem dead on 10
This is very very hard between a few of them like Pegos, and Lord_Ball but I'm going to go with saber1!
Awesome jobe everybody and thank you for running this deathwielded every week!

Gungan Batman Clone's Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice - 8.75
I really the custom ability Apprentice which seems to be in the same vein as some recent V-Set abilities and the huge amount of potential synergies that entails. I also like the Synergy with Ghost Obi; I'm surprised that was never on an "official" Luke. However, he is pretty reliant on other pieces to be worth playing.
pegolego's Luke Skywalker, Hero of Tatooine - 9.5
The representation of Luke at the beginning of Episode VI is spot on here. Leaping Assault, Rolling Cleave, and Aggressive Negotiations are all perfect.
Lord_Ball's Luke Skywalker, Rescuer - 9.25
Another ROTJ Luke! Agressive Negotiations works well and I like the Camraderie that boosts Leia. Clamp is a cool ability to give out on a CE, but I'm not sure it really fits Luke.
Corranhornsux123's Luke Skywalker, Dreamer - 8.25
I like the representation of Luke as a farmboy, but I'm not a huge fan of some of the custom abilities especially That Would Lead Them Back Home which gives him 23 Defense, way too high for a farmboy Luke in my book.
CerousMotor's Luke Skywalker, Return of the Jedi - 8.75
I like the idea of a primarily solo Luke to represent his final battle against Vader and the Emperor. Force Focus is a cool custom Force power and I like Dark Side Hunter as well. I'm not sure I like Aggressive Negotiations here and would probably get rid of it in favor of something else or a cost decrease.
Deathwielded's Luke Skywalker, Rogue Leader - 9.25
Rescue and Lightsaber Attack are both cool custom abilities and I'm kind of suprised nothing like them exists in the V-Sets, although Rescue might need a little rewording. I also like the CE and Willing to Serve.
AndyHatton's Luke Skywalker, Jedi Apprentice - 9.5
Like the Bespin Luke theme going on here a lot. But I Can Help Them!, Protective, Impulsive Advance, and giving Leia it's a trap are all perfect for him.
saber1's Luke Skywalker, Jedi-in-Training - 9
At Peace and Luke's Force Bond which gives him synergy with Ghost Obi are both very cool and Twin Blaster 10 is an excellent alternative to not using Melee and having Lightsaber. I'm not completely sold on the idea of Luke's Backpack though.
Tough choice to make this week between Pegolego's entry and AndyHatton's entry, but my vote goes to AndyHatton's Bespin Luke.
