Who Would Win series: Season 5: Eila (Strike Witches) vs Handmaiden (Star Wars)

Greetings and Welcome to another edition of my Who Would Win Series and it is going to be a match up between Eila IImatar Juutilainen from Strike Witches vs The Handmaiden from Star Wars.

This match up will go through the usual process. Stats, Weapons, Abilities, Feats, Skills and Weaknesses

Eila's Info is very straightforward. Her feats will be from the main Strike Witches anime series.

As for The Handmaiden, this is where it gets tricky. You see, Canon Wise, she never played a major role in the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 The Sith Lords Video Game since, well, she never becomes a companion to the Main Character. So, I decided to take a different route and go with the Secondary Story Arc that has the Handmaiden as a companion for the sake of Feats and Fairness.

So, without further ado, let's see who will be the "Predictable Winner" of this intriguing match up

Eila IImatar Juutilainen

Eila IImatar Juutilainen is a Pilot Officer of the 501st Joint Fighter Wing "Strike Witches".

Born in Finland, Eila has quite a resume to behold. Long Story Short, she once served under the 24th Squadron of the Suomus Air Force and achieved the rank of Warrant Officer.

Eventually, during her time in the Suomus Air Foce, Eila has taken on the Alien Invaders known as the Neuroi and quickly became one of the Squadron's Best Pilots. Eventually, she was transferred to the 501st Joint Fighter Wing in Britannia and ended up becoming one of the Squad's most valued Team Members.

During her time with the Strike Witches, Eila befriended Sanya Livytak, who is without a doubt, one of the more adorable characters in the Series :D!!!

Look at that adorable duo!!!!!!!

Eventually, Eila and Sanya became the Night Duty Partol, and both of them mainly sleep during the day and handle things like "The Dark Side............ Sanya, I am your Father!!!!!!" (I am joking XD!!!!)

Over the course of the Strike Witches Saga, Eila has participated in countless conflicts against the Neuroi, all with the power of Fortune Telling and Predicting the Future with flawless results :D!!!!!

That is the basic background of Eila's Story, now, let's see what the beautiful Fortune Teller is capable of.

Striker Unit Types

Striker Units are the main equipment for combat for the Strike Witches, and any other military organization that utilizes girls with magical powers. You see, the Striker Units were originally designed for aerial combat and it was Miyafuji Ichiro (Yoshika Miyafuji's father) who improved on the design to make it the best possible Striker Unit yet.

Background stuff aside, A Striker Unit is first powered up by the user's magical source. Some Striker Units have varying requirements of Magic to be used and in turn, can produce both incredible and dangerous results.

Eila has used the Beerster F2A Buffalo (BW-364) and Messerscharf Bf109G-2

However, Eila's Current Striker Unit is the Messerscharf Bf109K-4. This Unit is extremely mobile and very agile, especially with regards to Eila's Special Ability that will come up later.

While the Durability of the Unit is harder to pinpoint since, well, Eila has yet to sustain serious damage, it's Speed and Maneuverability make it one of the more powerful assets in the Strike Witches Series.

Weaponry

Eila has used two firearms and a "Special Weapon" in the Series. Here is the rundown for all weapons

MG 42: Eila's most iconic firearm and one of the most powerful weapons in the Series, The MG 42 is a Mauser General Purpose Machine Gun that fires 1200-1500 7.92x57mm Mauser Cartridge rounds per minute.

Eila firing the MG 42

It's simplicity in design and handling make it extremely practical and while it is heavy, Eila's handling of the MG 42 proves that she can fire it with tremendous accuracy and speed without any serious drawbacks. The Weapon is so powerful, it can penetrate Neuroi Craft Armor like sheet metal. Very powerful and added that it's high rate of fire is insane, this Gun packs serious firepower that even The Terminator would be impressed!!!!

Suomi KP/-31: The Suomi KP/-31, better known as the Finland-Submachine Gun, is basically a Thompson Submachine Gun from Finland. Capable of firing 750-900 rounds per minute, it may not have the same level of firepower as the MG 42, but it's reliability and practically more than makes up for the drawback. It is also a lighter firearm so it's accuracy can be more precise. Very versatile after all :D!!!!

Suomi KP/-31

Fliegerhammer Rocket Launcher: While technically Sanya's Weapon, Eila did use the Fliegerhammer Rocket Launcher to destroy a Speedy Neuroi Craft. The Rocket Launcher fires a multi-barreled barrage of rockets that are capable of causing Megatons worth of TNT. Absolutely Powerful.

Eila Wielding the Fliegerhammer Rocket Launcher

The Result of the Rocket Explosions above the Clouds. This resulted in Eila damaging the Neuroi severely.

Magical Abilities

Witches in Strike Witches (Hey I said the same word twice XD!!!) use Magic as a "Lifeforce" and it is used to generate power for Striker Units, give them animal ears and a tail based on their "Familiar" (Eila's Familiar is a Black Fox) and ultimately, their trump cards like "Special Abilities".

Special Abilities

Eila using the Magical Shield

Magical Shield: Eila can create a Magical Shield that protects her from all matter of attacks. The shield is so durable, it can take multiple Neuroi Beams for a while before breaking down.

That said, this shield is still very difficult to break anyway. In the case of Eila, her Shield is actually not exactly a major player to her fighting style because.......

Future Sight

At least Eila is better than Billy Costigan from the Departed XD!!!!

The Quintessential Ability that makes Eila an absolute monster in terms of combat, Future Sight is where things start to get a bit over powered. Basically, Eila can predict the future and is extremely proficient, she very rarely, if at all, ever got tagged when at her absolute best. She is soooooooo difficult to take down, she is almost four steps (Yes, four, not two) ahead of her opponent and because of this, she has complete control of the battlefield.

The limits to her Future Sight are not easy to pinpoint but it is possible that someone with quick enough reflexes and their own Future Sight can match Eila..... but still, added that she is already very mobile and maneuverable, that is not going to be a easy feat by leaps and bounds.

So really, Future Sight is the reason why Eila is one of the most powerful characters in Strike Witches. She is even able to dodge anything..... Yes, ANYTHING!!!!! And, the amount of magic required is not alot, which means Eila can spam this ability as many times as she needs to.

Physical Capabilities

Eila dodging multiple light speed attacks!!!

Despite Eila being a little 15-16 year old girl, by no means is she helpless in the least. Here is a list of Physical Feats for Strength, Speed and Durability

Strength

Can Wield The MG 42 without suffering serious Recoil kickback, allowing greater accuracy and control as it fires 1200-1500 rounds.

Can carry other fellow Strike Witches around while using a Striker Unit.

Speed

As mentioned before, Eila can dodge all forms of attacks with no effort thanks to her future sight.

Without Future Sight, Eila is still capable of going at very high speeds. While not particularly as quick as Shirley and Gertrud Barkhorn, Eila's flight speed can reasonably scale to the likes of Francesca, who somehow reaches Faster than the Eye can track speeds by spinning around. Mind you, this is without Future Sight coming into play.

Casually dodges Neuroi Beams, which are Faster than Light, even without the Future Sight

Can propel herself towards the sky's limit with her Striker Unit. Reaching nearly 18 000 miles per hour, the same speed done by a space shuttle to reach the atmosphere. That is a variable calculation but since Eila reached the Sky's Limit in order to help destroy the Neuroi Core, it is still very impressive regardless, and she did so with little time.

Can run fast without using the Striker Unit.

Durability

With the Magical Shield, she scales perfectly to Lynette Bishop, who can block multiple Neuroi Beams that are capable of destroying fleets of Battleships.

While Eila rarely needs a shield, nor even cares about doing it, should she even use it, she can withstand Neuroi Blasts that break molecules down to the subatomic level.

Fell victim to the Neuroi Ass Loving bug XD!!!! (Internal Damage is pretty insane, since the bug crawled inside Eila's ass after all)

Skills and Personality

A highly skilled combatant and a very strategic individual, Eila is one of the most impressive characters in terms of Skills and Combat effectiveness. While not exactly a skill, she is actually quite a Fortune Teller and her Tarot Cards, while having mixed results, do provide a future prediction of Fate and Destiny......... But they are not really relevant in a random combat encounter since Future Sight is the pride and joy anyway hahahah.

Because of her extensive time on Night Patrol with Sanya, Eila is very efficient in Night Time Battles. While this is actually a specialty for her, Eila is still a capable fighter in daytime. Infact, half of the battles in Strike Witches that involve Eila are set during the Day anyway, that means she is versatile.

At last, Eila is a very determined individual with a sense of care and love for her comrades, particularly Sanya. While initially she is fiercely protective of Sanya above anyone else, Eila eventually became a more open minded and friendly girl, making her a great example of Character Growth and Depth :D!!!!!!

Feats for Eila

As a major player in Strike Witches, Eila has done a couple of feats that make her amazing :D!!! Here is a list of notable feats for the Finnish Girl

Has officially, and Cleanly, managed to become a highly skilled Striker Unit Pilot by the time she is at the age of 14 onwards.

Assisted Sanya in destroying the Neuroi Core

Helped Yoshika, Hattori Shizuka and Sanya defeat two powerful Neuroi Craft while fighting in the Fog

Managed to help the Strike Witches take down the Warlock.

Helped Yoshika Miyafuji rescue Mio Sakamoto.

Future Sight is an overpowered ability, even for Strike Witches Standards.

Was part of the assassination attempt of the Ass Loving Neuroi Bug, which eventually was killed by Minna, this awarded Minna her 200th Unit Shot down.

Became sexier by the Boingo Curse because it increased Eila's Boob size by up to Eleven XD!!!

Voiced by Caitlin Glass

Is best friends with Sanya, who literally is a hand raised bird in the form of a girl :D!!!!

Weaknesses

While Eila is of course an absolute monster in terms of Combat Effectiveness. She does have weaknesses

Of course, her Strength Level is basically human, and Eila, without magic, is about as durable as a Human and should she take a well placed head shot, she will die. Her saving Grace is with her Magic Shield and her Future Sight.

While the Magic Shield is a valued asset. The Fact that Eila rarely uses it means she is overly confident with her Future Sight and reflexes to even consider using the Shield to begin with. Which sometimes leads to Eila being a bit reckless in battle because she can be cocky at times. This has led to the danger of her team mates in the past before.

As for Eila's Future Sight, it is a very powerful ability, but should Eila run out of Magic reserves, she is limited to her own instincts. So that is something to consider

But of course, Eila's Magic Reserves are finite. While she doesn't necessarily use Magic as much as other Strike Witches and Magic Girls in the series, the flaws are still consistent across all the characters so Eila is not safe from danger.

However, despite all that, there really is nothing too much to pick out for Eila's Weaknesses. She is a powerful, funny, adorable and beautiful Witch with the power of seeing the Future with flawless results :D!!!

The Handmaiden (Spoiler Heavy Section ahead)

The Handmaiden is one of the companion characters in the Star Wars Video Game "Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords".

The Handmaiden's Story is actually one that is full of twists and turns. But, the general sense of things is that she is the Daughter of General Yusanis, an Echani Warrior and Arren Kae, a Jedi Master.

While this sounds like a great relationship to behold, unfortunately, there is a drawback. You see, Jedi are forbidden to make attachments to others yet Arren Kae broke that oath and married Yusanis, making the birth of The Handmaiden an act of defiance against the Jedi Council. While the Marriage and Birth was kept a secret for a moment, unfortunately the Jedi found out about this and thus, exiled Arren Kae for good.

Long Story Short, The Handmaiden eventually became an orphan after Revan, who was the Dark Lord of the Sith, slain Yusanis and Arren Kae died in battle during the Mandalorian Wars.

Eventually, the Handmaiden and her sisters became the disciples of Atris, a powerful Jedi Master. Which is ironic, because the Handmaiden served under the same order that banished her mother from the Council XD!!!!

One day, The Handmaiden's Part in the Story becomes grand, as she met the heroic individual known as the "Jedi Exile" who requested the return of the Ebon Hawk, which the Handmaiden stole on her own.

After the Exile's brief moment with Atris, The Handmaiden decided to join the Exile in a battle against the Forces of the Dark Side and eventually, protect the Exile from Harm. She even trained the Exile in Echani Techniques and the philosophies of battle. Overtime, she became one of the Exile's most capable combatants and a very determined individual. She even learned the ways of the force, breaking the oath sworn to Atris. Be it Light or Dark, The Handmaiden was at the Exile's Side til the very end.

That is a straightforward background of the Handmaiden's role in the story of the Game. Now, let's see what she is capable of.

Physical Stats


The Handmaiden fighting and defeating a Zakkeg

The Handmaiden is actually one of the strongest companions in the Game. What is very interesting however is that she is actually far stronger as an unarmed combatant due to her extensive training in the Echani Arts. Here is a list of notable feats for Strength, Speed and Durability for the Handmaiden

Strength

Can use her own fists to break apart Mandalorian Armor and Durasteel Type Materials. All of which are capable of blocking Lightsabers and blaster fire

Can fight and defeat a Zakkeg, which is stated by the Mandalorians that the Zakkeg is "Built like a Battle Tank" For reference, the Battle Tanks in Star Wars are able to take huge levels of punishment such as multiple large building level blasts and even numerous lightsaber strikes from powerful Jedi.

Can wield two Gammorean War Axes at once. A Single Gammorean Axe weighs almost 30 pounds. And for the Handmaiden to wield two of them means she is definitely as Strong, if not Stronger than a Gammorean!!!!

A Gammorean War Axe

Can trade blows with the Jedi Exile in sparring matches. The Exile is literally the Strongest character in the game, able to destroy blast doors, trade blows with Nihilus, Sion and even slash through Durasteel Armor. Yeah, I think we know the Handmaiden is ridiculously strong at this point XD!!!

Speed

Can scale to all the Jedi and Sith in the Game. All of which can use the Force to Increase both Travel and Combat Speed. For Reference, The Jedi and Sith can block and dodge Faster than Light Speeds regularly. Sometimes without Force Speed Coming into Play.

Even without the use of the Force, The Handmaiden can keep up with Jedi/Sith opponents.

Can Run as fast as her comrades who use Force Speed. Sometimes, She doesn't even have Force Speed and yet she still keeps up!!!!

Can dodge Blaster Fire.

Managed to outrun Explosives. Even avoiding them entirely. Some explosions can level apartments.

Killed all of her Sisters in a timespan of 5 seconds, who actually have precognition and very fast reflexes that match Jedi/Sith combat speed.

Durability

Has taken Lightsaber strikes. Which cut through literally anything that is not Resistant To Lightsaber's...... Even while wearing only her Handmaiden clothing!!!!!

Using a Personal Shield, The Handmaiden can absorb Blaster Fire for a moment

Took Death Field's from the Sith. Death Field is a Force Power that drains the life of the victims and heals the attacker.

Has taken multiple Force Powers that can destroy battalions of Soldiers and Droids at once. She even took a full on blast of Force Lightning from Atris.

Taken Explosions regularly. Grenades, Mines, Traps. You name it, she endured it :D!!!

Weaponry

The Handmaiden and her Staff

The Handmaiden is very proficient with all kinds of weapons. She is soooooo skilled, she is able to use them to maximum effect using her unmatched training and skills as an Echani Practitioner. While it is very hard to pinpoint her Canonical Weaponry, I will however do a General Rundown of what she can use in combat.

Vibroblades: The Swords of Star Wars that do not project a beam, Vibroblades are basically that, a Blade. Capable of slicing through anything and are durable enough to trade blows with Lightsabers.

Blasters: Despite being very proficient in Melee Combat, The Handmaiden can still use Ranged Weaponry with equal levels of Skill. A superb Marksman, she can fire Blasters at over 40 ft across with great accuracy.

Lightsaber

The Iconic Lightsaber is a beam focused weapon of unmatched cutting power. Very easy to understand. It is used by Jedi, Sith and other Force Sensitives or anyone who is skilled in Melee Combat for, well, Melee Combat. The Saber can be wielded as a Single Hilt, Dual Wielded or even a Double bladed Lightsaber.

The Double Bladed Saber

The Handmaiden Staff

The Staff used by the Handmaiden is a very powerful weapon. While lacking any notable cutting power, it's kinetic energy makes up for it's drawback, as it can smash through armor and block Lightsaber strikes. Very powerful indeed. It can even be concealed for later use, making it's function identical to a Double Bladed Saber :D!!!!

Grenades: While not necessarily ideal for her fighting style as a melee fighter, Grenades do help in many situations. The types of Grenades that can be thrown are

Thermal Detonators

Cryoban Grenades

Poison Grenades

Sonic Grenades

Frag Grenades

Plasma Grenades

Adhesive Grenades

So yeah, alot of versatility the Handmaiden has :D!!!!

Other Melee Weapons

Being a Melee Specialist, The Handmaiden can use other types like the Gammorean Battle Axe,Trandoshan Double bladed Swords, Twi'lek Swords, Zabrak Vibroblades etc. Yeah, this chick is a Swiss army knife!!!!!

Basically, The Handmaiden's Mastery of Melee Combat allows her to wield anything with tremendous power and precision. A complete Warrior :D!!!

Force Abilities/Powers

Evil Meetra Surik using a Force Storm

When The Handmaiden broke her oath to Atris and instead followed the Exile's Training as a Jedi/Sith, she can use the force for combat and other interesting techniques. Here is a list of Force Powers used by the Handmaiden.

Force Push: One of the most basic Force Powers used by Jedi, Sith and other Force Sensitives, Force Push allows the user to push their enemies away for devastating effects. Sometimes, the Force Push can be used with greater power, resulting in groups of enemies being pushed away, resulting in either unconsciousness's or even death. In the case of The Handmaiden, she can use an omidirectional Force Push known as Force Wave to push away everyone around her with tremendous power.

Force Pull: Another widely used ability. Force Pull is basically the opposite of Force Push except it pulls objects and enemies towards the user. At greater power levels, Force Pull can disarm enemies and even disarm groups of enemies at once.

Force Absorption: Force Absorption allows the User to absorb Force based attacks. In various Star Wars material, Force Absorption can make the user absorb the Force and fuel their Force Energy. This makes the ability an extremely powerful asset to any Force User since it allows them to redirect Force attacks with more energy.

Master Yoda using Force Absorption

Force Protection: Force Protection allows the User to become highly resistant to damage for a short period of time. However, in some instances, Force Protection lasts for about a minute or two and even can be used to prevent acidic rain from touching the User's body.

Force Heal: An extremely powerful ability, Force Heal is simple, it allows the User to regenerate their Stamina and Health to keep on fighting. While some Jedi use this ability while being stationary, a skillful Jedi can use this ability while moving, which can let them regenerate while on the run. However, with just a flick of a hand gesture, The Handmaiden can use Force heal to heal herself and her allies in combat.

Force Valor: Force Valor increases the User's stats to greater heights. The Effects last for a short time though it does increase the overall effectiveness of the User's combat capabilities.

Force Block: Force Block allows the User to block Force attacks. This is very useful against another Force User because it can prevent the defender from being open to a kill shot.

Force Speed: Force Speed is an ability that allows the User to travel at Faster than the Eye can track speeds. It also increases the Combat speed for the User, giving them a huge advantage against an enemy who is significantly slower than them.

Force Jump: Force Jump allows the User to Jump very high and travel at long distances. A powerful Force Jump can allow the User to reach the top of a building and tall platforms.

Mind Trick: Mind Trick is an ability that allows the User to manipulate the minds of others. It can be used to allow the victim to obey commands or even Persuasion purposes. The effects last for a short time but it can give the User more time for options.

Force Sight: Force Sight allows the User to see anything using the Force. It can even prevent blindness and allows the User to see in extremely dark places.

Force Lightning/Storm: Force Lightning allows the User to project lightning from their finger tips. However, The Handmaiden is able to use the more powerful Force Storm, which can destroy entire battalions of troops and droids with just a hand gesture.

Vader using Force Choke

Force Slow/Plague:The Handmaiden can use Force Slow and Force Plague to make her victims become much slower in terms of overall speed. Plague in particular even poisons the victim in the process.

Force Choke: Force Choke allows the user to choke their victims using the Force. In the case of The Handmaiden, this ability can let her stall an opponent long enough for her allies to finish them off. This also results in the victim losing their life in the process.

Life Drain/Death Field: Life Drain allows the User to use the Force to drain the life of their victims. This ability also heals the user and has a very high damage output. Death field on the other hand is monstrously devastating. It not only drains the life of a single victim, it can also drain the lives of multiple victims at once. Oh, and Death Field can even heal immensely........ Badass :D

Atris using Life Drain

Force Fear/Insanity: Using the Force, A Jedi and a Sith are capable of causing fear to their victims. Insanity however can cause fear to a group of enemies at once. This allows the User to capitalize on the situation and finish off their opponent.

Mara Jade using Force Stun on a Rebel Soldier

Force Stun/Stasis Field: Force Stun allows the User to stun their opponent. The most powerful version, Stasis Field, can stun groups of enemies at once.

Force Scream: Force Scream allows the User to use an enhanced scream to produce tremendous power. The Scream itself is omnidirectional though in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 game, it is a cone shaped blast.

Battle Meditation: Without a doubt, the most powerful ability for any Jedi or Sith who uses the force is Battle Meditation. Battle Meditation allows the User to bestow an Aura of Force Energy that boosts their combat potential to limitless heights. While Bastila Shan needed time to use this ability, The Handmaiden can do so with just a thought. In terms of power, those who are under the effects of Battle Meditation will almost certainly win the fight.

Blaster Deflection: Without any form of weapons, the User can deflect blaster fire with a simple hand gesture.

Battle Precognition

What makes the Handmaiden one of the most powerful characters in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 Game, she can predict movements and actions of her opponents using Battle Precognition.

Essentially, Precog is when you predict events accordingly and act in advance. Meaning, you are literally two-four steps ahead of your enemies. Allowing you more time to make decisions and capitalize on opportunities.

The Handmaiden's Extensive Training in the Echani Arts make her extremely proficient with Precog. It is officially stated that the most skilled Echani Warriors not only use this form of Precog for battle, but even predict the outcome of wars...... Months in advance!!!! Meaning, they can be seen as Combat Effective Fortune Tellers!!!!!

Oh, and the Handmaiden never uses the Force for this particular skill, she uses it on instinct alone. That's how badass and cool she is :D!!!!!!

Of Course, Her most valued asset is an upgrade to this ability with......

Force Vision

Force Vision allows the user to sense a presence with the Force. It can also give the user foresight, see the future and past, and even experience events that happened from light years away.

Yeah....... That's pretty game changing in a 1v1 fight right there. The Handmaiden is far more powerful than you thought now right? ;)

Skills

The Handmaiden Sparring in her own room inside the Ebon Hawk

Of course, being a Melee Specialist, The Handmaiden is actually a master of close quarters combat. Also, she is still effective in Ranged Combat with Blasters, just that her style is more focused on Melee Combat than anything else.

What is very interesting though..... The Handmaiden is a superb Martial Artist and is able to fight Jedi and Sith using only her fisticuffs.... Yeah, I am serious!!!! This is a warrior, who can fight guys with lightsabers and the force, using only her arms and legs for combat.......... Seriously, how can you not love this badass!!!!!

But what is very funny but also very intriguing is this.....

What? She is no longer wearing clothes? XD!!!

Being almost naked sounds silly...... But, that's what makes her very dangerous. You see, because clothing can restrict movement in combat, The Handmaiden's Fighting Style further reaches greater heights because it allows her to strike hard with far less wind drag with her attacks. Meaning, she can hit even harder and faster without clothing!!!! It is also traditional in Echani Training to not wear anything that restricts movement. See, I knew Star Wars had similarities with Strike Witches in a way... Oh wait a minute XD!!!!!

Bottom Line, The Handmaiden's Skills in Combat are unrivaled. And Since she is a Jedi Guardian, it already boosts her ridiculous skill set by leaps and bounds.

Combat Skills aside, she is also quite stealthy. Being able to outsmart TSF Security on Telos to hijack the Ebon Hawk, and has a high level of knowledge about Combat styles. Basically, The Handmaiden is a living Pokedex on Combat :D!!!!!

Feats achieved by The Handmaiden

Being one of the companions for the Jedi Exile, The Handmaiden is actually quite an accomplished character. Here is a list of feats achieved by the Echani Warrior

Has officially, and cleanly, became the Ebon Hawk's most powerful Martial Artist rivaled only by the Jedi Exile.

Has trained all her life in the Echani Arts to become the best warrior she could possibly be.

Defeated countless Jedi/Sith like it is a Tuesday at this point

Has helped defeat Armies of Mercenaries, Thugs, Mandalorians and other Warriors in battle.

Can use both Light Side and Dark Side Powers with great versatility.

Learned how to become a Jedi/Sith in only a few minutes which can take years for anyone to do. Except for her!!!!! (Though she still needs more time to fully master the Force)

Voiced by Grey Griffin

As a companion, she kicks serious ass and is extremely reliable.

Became a Scholar and Jedi Master in the aftermath of the KOTOR 2 Story Arc. So in the end, she stayed on the Light Side.

Since we reached near the end of her info. Her real name is Brianna :D!!!!!

Weaknesses

Despite The Handmaiden's skills and Power set. Unfortunately, she is actually not exactly unbeatable.

While she possesses a very high level of Melee Skill and Tactics, she is still gonna take alot of damage and if she is not careful, she will die. Infact, her Battle Precognition is not exactly impressive once you realize that she has taken multiple hits from Non Force Sensitive users before. Even her Future Sight is sketchy as she has never fully mastered it's power to begin with.

Even at her very best, there are alot of flaws to consider. You see, the Handmaiden lacks air mobility and only has to fly Starships in order to gain that level of mobility and since she doesn't have a Starship as her standard arsenal, she is only going into battle with just her own body and abilities. The Ebon Hawk may be her ship, but she does not own the ship, it is for the Jedi Exile only. So no, The Handmaiden doesn't use the Ebon Hawk as her standard arsenal.

It is also noted that she has one of the lowest level of skills outside of combat such as Security, Repair and Computer use. Because of that, The Handmaiden is not particularly useful for covert operations and sabotage missions. She is mainly a frontline warrior.

Despite her faults, the Handmaiden, now Brianna, is a badass combatant with a very interesting skill set and backstory. She is amazing, cool and above all, a very well written character.

Summary

Eila IImatar Juutilainen

Advantages

Is significantly more Durable thanks to the Magical Shield.

While straight forward, her Striker Unit gives Eila a astronomical level of Speed and Mobility against the Handmaiden.

Her Future Sight is, believe it or not, superior to The Handmaiden's Battle Precog since it is perfect when Eila is at her absolute best

Is going to be extremely difficult to attack since Eila actually flies while the Handmaiden cannot.

Has fought foes who are more powerful than The Handmaiden before.

Very close call, but Eila is actually more beautiful than the Handmaiden

Is twice as adorable

I mean, Come on. Sanya>The Jedi Exile in terms of cuteness anyday XD!!!!

Disadvantages

Far less Experienced

Not as Strong Physically

Not as Skilled in Melee Combat as the Handmaiden

The Force is something Eila has Zero counter for.

Death Field alone would actually kill Eila in one hit, if The Handmaiden catches her first

Force Stasis will hold Eila in place and allow The Handmaiden to put her on limbo and finish her off

Lacks Melee Weapons to match the Lightsaber and Other Melee weapons used by the Handmaiden

Force Speed actually can match Eila's own Speed.

The Handmaiden

Advantages

Physically Stronger

More Skilled and Experienced

Using the Force, The Handmaiden can actually catch Eila off guard with Force Stasis and a Death Field. If she can catch her

Force Speed allows the Handmaiden to Match Eila's Speed

Her Melee Weapons surpass Eila's own, who, doesn't even use melee weapons at all!!!!

Disadvantages

Far less Durable

Despite her level of Speed being very impressive, Eila actually surpasses The Handmaiden due to her mobility and flight with the Striker Unit.

Her Battle Precognition is not as powerful as Eila's Future Sight, which is flawless.

Lacks any form of flight that cannot match Eila's Flight capabilities. Meaning she is a sitting duck

Despite facing Jedi and Sith, Eila has fought foes who are actually more powerful than the Handmaiden regardless

Not as beautiful as Eila. Though this is very close

Not even close to being as adorable

Sanya>The Jedi Exile............... No contest in terms of cuteness

The Verdict

So far in Season 5 of Who Would Win, most of the match ups have been stomps with the exception of Perrine vs Weiss and Chris Redfield vs Chuck Greene. However, Eila vs Handmaiden is absolutely close!!!!!!

Of all the fights this season, this is by far the closest to decide a winner for and for many reasons. Both use Precog to have multiple steps ahead of their opponent, both use Special abilities to even the playing field and both have their own advantages to balance the fight in many exciting ways :D!!!! So this is a very close call.

However, the most interesting take here is that neither of them fully outclass the other. So, in order to decide who wins, we need to first take a look at the Stats, which is very interesting.

Strength Wise, this is a no brainer, Eila is feat less while the Handmaiden has fought Jedi, Sith, Zakkegs, Mandalorians and other Strong Foes with weapons and her bare hands. So that category goes to Handmaiden in spades.... But this time, Strength is actually not a major player in the match up. So, let's see if Speed is going to be of use here

Of course, Speed is a very solid edge for Eila. Since, well, she uses a Striker Unit to fly around the Battlefield and with a higher level of mobility and flight, her attacks are going to be overwhelming for the Handmaiden to handle.......... or is it? ;)

The Handmaiden has deflected Blaster Fire and Faster than Light Speeds before, so I do not think the bullets from the MG 42 and the Suomi Sub machine Gun are gonna matter against The Handmaiden. So this is actually alot closer than I originally thought. However, because of one trump card that Eila has, Speed does still go in Eila's favor.

So it seems Eila is going to win this fight due to Speed. But what about Durability?

Well, Eila's Scaling to Lynette Bishop's Magical Shield Feat already proves she is more durable. As the Neuroi beams can decimate fleets of battleships. The Handmaiden is very tough, but there is no feat in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 game that showcases any level of feat that comes close. So really, at best, we have a Town Level character vs a Large Building Level character. The Difference is astronomical. Eila wins this category thanks to the Shield.

However, Stats are, quite literally, the Second Thought of this entire fight. What really matters is their abilities and boy, this is where the fight is decided.

Both characters can use abilities to increase their combat potential. But the Handmaiden is far more versatile thanks to her use of the Force. And, added she has Force Speed, she can match Eila's Speed and even do alot of wonders. Such as Force Lightning, Force Pull, Force Push, Force Choke. But the Two game Changing abilities are:

Force Stasis

Death Field

Now, what makes it very intense is that The Handmaiden is certainly capable of using both of these Force Powers to even the playing field. Added that Force Stasis literally holds the opponent in place and gives The Handmaiden a free opportunity to finish them off, that alone is a massive advantage........... But, Flight is where it gets much more difficult to counter. Because Force Stasis lasts for around 10-20 seconds, The Handmaiden must reach Eila in order to capitalize on the opportunity. And, this is where it get's controversial, but she cannot reach Eila at all. Because

1. The difference in range is going to take alot of time for the Handmaiden to Reach Eila

2. Eila is fighting while Flying, and The Handmaiden cannot use her Force jump to reach Eila at all.

3. Force Stasis can be resisted by those with strong willpower and since Eila is actually quite strong mentally, she is likely gonna resist the effects for the most part. Even if Eila is caught and in Stasis, the first two points already give the ability a limited amount of options anyway.

But of course, this is why the Handmaiden is very skilled, She doesn't just use Force Stasis alone, she can use combo powers to counter act the drawbacks. Death Field is going to one shot Eila and if that ability catches her, the Fight is over. It's power is simply too much for Eila to survive, and it will ignore the Magical Shield.............. But, Eila has this fight in the bag regardless.

So, despite the Handmaiden's amazing skills and versatile force powers, how come Eila wins this fight? Well, Future Sight.

Because of Eila's natural ability to see into the future and dodge anything that comes at her, she is not stupid enough to stay still for the Handmaiden to catch anyway. Force Stasis is not very effective against very fast moving targets and it requires great concentration to trigger it anyway. And Eila's fighting style is simply avoiding attacks and shoot on the fly...... Yeah, I don't think Force Stasis is gonna help.

Death Field is game changing, but, since Eila can see into the future and predict the gesture, she can simply stop that ability from being triggered by staying out of range, or even shoot at Handmaiden's Hand to prevent the ability from getting triggered anyway.

While The Handmaiden has Battle Precognition, she never fully mastered it and has actually taken blows before despite it's power and usage. So really, her Precog is mainly predicting the movements of her opponents and since Eila's fighting Style is unlike anything The Handmaiden has seen, this natural precog is useless. And while the reflexes of the Handmaiden are able to stop the incoming bullets, she is not gonna be fast enough to dodge Eila's continued onslaught, especially with Future Sight being a major factor for her Speed. So Eila is four steps ahead of the Handmaiden anyway, and is going to land multiple bullet holes that will eventually kill the Handmaiden

In the end, I believe that Eila is simply too smart to get close to the Handmaiden, and she is going to bombard her with multiple bullets until she managed to shoot her down and exhaust her, and finally, stay out of range from the Death Field and other Force Powers. Melee skills won't matter because Eila may not be a melee fighter, but she already wins the Long Range department and that alone is more than enough to counter act the Handmaiden's Skills in Melee Combat. It is like trying to catch a bullet with your hands.......... Very difficult indeed

So, Thanks to her Future Sight, Magical Shield, Flight, Mobility, Speed and Battle Style, I believe that Eila IImatar Juutilainen will "See the future of her victory"

The Winner is Eila IImatar Juutilainen
