Why Obi-wan Kenobi is my favorite Jedi

Obi wan (Ben) Kenobi was one of few Jedi who survived order 66 also known as the great Jedi purge. Through his life he has love and lost fought and survived and became one of 4 known Jedi to be one with the force.  He earned everything he was given, he wasn't recognized as a great Jedi until the events of Revenge of the Sith and he is one of the most important figured in the Star Wars universe. 

Overall Bad-ass

He was the fist Jedi to kill a member of the Sith in over 1000 years when he "killed" Darth Maul, we later figured out that he did not kill Maul but when he did cut Maul in half he sparked the events of the prequels causing the war against the Separatists and the Sith. Also on his resume he played a huge part in ending the war on Naboo which ended in them joining the Republic. He found the clone army that would help them in the war but ended up turning against them due to the corruption of Palpatine. He was involved in the battle of Genosis and fought Count Dooku although losing still a great feat due to how great Dooku was. He also killed the great Separatist leader General Grievous before being turned on by his clones. Finally he beat the hate filled Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) who was very powerful and was a big mismatch. He was very powerful in the force and used it to his favor besting his opponents with it and later on in his old age relied on it. 

Brief Background

He was born 57 years before the battle of Yavin, he was a force sensitive child he was brought to the Jedi temple. Like most Younglings he underwent training with Grand Master Yoda and then when Qui-Gon Gin noticed him and his ability he decided to take him on as his Padawan. Before the invasion of Naboo him and Gin were tasked to protect the Duchess Satine and they would fall in love with each other (Notice the comparison with Anakin with Padme) But unlike Anakin he would leave Satine to follow the sacred Jedi code.

More Obi-Wan

If you are a Kenobi fan like my self I highly suggest watching the animated Star Wars the Clone Wars series which Kenobi plays a big role and is interesting because in takes place between the 2nd and 3rd movies so you also see a little bit of Anakin falling to the Dark side and the best part it is all Canon. Since he is such a predominate role in the franchise I also believe that Ray from the Force Awakens is a Kenobi, it would make for an interesting backstory and explain he great skill in the force.
