The Son of Sparda VS The New Hope (Dante VS Luke)

He will, he wont hesitate to kill if his life is in danger.
I've got two people say he wouldn't try to do it in character, mentioning he didn't do it against a Wumpa or whatever was that name

The Wumpa? Luke cut off its arm and ran, which is a natural reaction towards a wild beast.. Luke literally kills Stormtroopers and destroys TIE fighters in A New Hope. He won't hesitate to kill a demon.

He doesn't know Dante is a Demon, there is a wide variety of races in SW that look so different then humans Dante could very much be one of them in Luke's eyes, unless Luke would just kill someone that looks a bit different

He already kills humans. He wont't hesistate

I already got told by two other people he wouldn't kill Dante on the first strike a few weeks ago since Dante is just, in theory, just a random person that is not affiliated with the Empire. My reasoning stays the same unless someone can show me Luke killing someone that is not affiliated with the Empire without trying to disarm them first

Here is him murdering criminals unaffiliated with the empire. I know that is an older Luke, but nothing indicates Luke is hesitant to kill before this.

The assumption that he hesitates to kill unless you are an imperial is so weird and unsupported by anything I know off.

Aren't those the same guys who are keeping his sister prisoner with barely any clothes?

It is not weird, because Dante is not a criminal, he is not affiliated with the Empire, he is a guy who thinks he can beat Luke, Dante wouldn't even sound threatening and would joke around in their first engagement

My guy, if someone skilled is trying to literally murder a person, they would naturally retaliate in self-defense, even killing them. NOTHING backs up the whole "Luke won't kill unless you are a criminal or imperial"

I guess Dante should also hesitate since he has never killed a space wizard with a laser sword lg. This argument is just headcanon.

Dante tries to kill Luke, and Luke also tries to kill him back. The end.

Dante is not trying to kill Luke
 
And Luke tries to kill him regardless.
Once again, I'm not convinced given what people told me already here. Dante would joke around before the fight even began, he is using a normal metal sword, as far as Luke goes why he would he see that as an ultimate threat that needs to be put down? He probably knows he can cut off Dante's sword instead of just going for the kill in the first slash, Dante shouldn't pose that much a threat to warrant that
 
And Luke tries to kill him regardless.
Luke's first move wouldn't be to go in for a kill. He would be more likely to try to incapacitate rather than kill without reason, as he could easily slice Dante's sword and, in the worst case, cut off a limb instead of killing him outright. Besides, Dante wouldn't kill a human even if he were at a disadvantage.
 
Wait a second this is devil trigger Dante right? Then Luke would absolutely see him as some rabid monster rather than a guy.
 
Yeah most aliens that are especially inhuman are like rapid animals or crazed bandit men. A fire dude swinging a sword at him would be abnormal even for Star Wars unless you know literally every alien. Like yeti guy was just a crazy creature to Luke, he didn’t even second guess that and the Sand people are crazy goobers from his perspective too

Dante can talk, he wouldn't stay silent
 
Dante is also not a fire dude, he's a red dude with white hair
 
In English, does Luke speak English or generic alien language. Also the sand people are sapient and he views them as all bad.
 
Seems like it is English but it is called something else in universe
Then it isn’t English, it’s just translated for the audience. Luke is going to have no clue what he’s saying and thus view him like the tusken who he kills on sight.
 
What is the direct quote then rather than the wiki quote. Because the wiki could be basing it being English in the movies despite it in verse not being English. So where’s the out of verse statement saying it’s directly English.
 
“it’s never literal language we’re hearing”
This to me pretty hard confirms then that no English isn’t the language they are speaking at all. If every earth language is equally canon as stated that that 1000% sounds like their translations are canon not that basic is somehow English despite being stated to not to be the literal language we are hearing.
 
I did some digging, apparently it sounds like English in Legends but not on the Disney era stuff.

Regardless, if Luke would just kill Dante because of how he looks, this is a stomp

Luke's life is threatened here, and honestly? What's Dante gonna do if he loses his sword or a limb? His skill advantage is meaningless since IRL a skilled dude is cooked against an unskilled guy with a knife, now imagine the latter wielding a laser sword.

Ngl, this is really that exact same situation.
 
If Luke will just go for the kill then this is a stomp and should be just closed
