It's too bad this isn't a debate over who'd win in a fight. Simply who you'd rather be.(As for dodging blaster bolts, by the way, that particular jedi was very fond of her clones. She was not expecting an attack, and thus let her guard down.)
Lightsabers are created with small crystals within them that resonate with and reflect the force of its wielder. This is very much like a wand in the Harry Potter universe. As such, I'd like to think that the powers parallel each other, and could be used to counter each other.
Both wizards and jedi have advantages. Wizards could cast protective spells to block the force, and have spells to disarm a jedi of her lightsaber. Jedi can use the force without a wand, allowing them to easily disarm their opponents. Ultimately, it boils down to skill on who wins, not the nature of each combatant. One should look at personal utility or compatibility to determine their following, not the overall combat skill of two vastly creative forces.
I chose to be a redshirt, because I dislike the responsibility imposed by power; I don't trust myself. But both options seem equally valid to me.
Oh, would fire blow up a lightsaber? I'm nowhere near enough of a Star Wars nerd to know the mechanics of the things, lol.Well, shoot.
Oh, right. A mediocre fireball would effectively detonate on the lightsaber if it was blocked.
But this isn't debate, lovely Jorick! (You'd blow me out of the water somehow I'm sure.)
Being a wizard would be totes more fun. Unlocking the mysteries of the universe. Instant teleportation, transforming into animals at will, magical alchemy.
Sure beats sitting around meditating and not having a direct hand in most conflicts.
What happens to a HP wizard without their wand?
Jorick confirmed for power hungry sith.Oh, would fire blow up a lightsaber? I'm nowhere near enough of a Star Wars nerd to know the mechanics of the things, lol.
The idea of magic in general is more fun, but I don't particularly care for the Harry Potter version. The purely mechanical "do the motion and say the word" thing seems kind of boring, honestly. Learning HP magic would be like learning math, just the rote mechanical processes, instead of being a personal thing. I figure Jedi powers would be more fun than HP magic if you went Sith, which is exactly what I'd do. Screw meditating and staying out of things, I'mma get my rage on and fuck shit up.

And wands are conduits and focuses for magical capability (except for those gifted few). Lightsabers aren't the same. Anyone can pick one up and wield it, like Grievous.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.Politics, my dear.
A common trick with bounty hunters is to use flamethrowers on Jedi.Oh, would fire blow up a lightsaber? I'm nowhere near enough of a Star Wars nerd to know the mechanics of the things, lol.
