Summary
- Thrawn thrives on exploiting weaknesses, using personal history, culture, and art against his adversaries, which makes him a frightening threat to the galaxy.
- The New Republic's weaknesses and arrogance, combined with their lack of control in the Outer Rim, expose them to an even greater danger from Thrawn.
- Thrawn can target vulnerabilities such as Imperial moles, Hera Syndulla's son, Grogu's history, Din Djarin's facial scan, and Mandalore's rebuilding to weaken his opponents in battle.
Grand Admiral Thrawn his made his triumphant return to the
Star Wars galaxy, and he brings the promise of a galaxy-wide conflict with him. After having been stranded in another galaxy with Ezra Bridger for nine years or more, Thrawn is ready to re-establish himself in a post-war galaxy, and he considers continuing his work in the name of the Empire to be the best way of doing so. Thrawn has always been known to thrive where his adversaries are the weakest, and thus he gets to know those he fights so well that he can target the parts of them they didn't realize were vulnerable - using elements of their personal history, culture, art, and more to do so.
While the Star Wars heroes of the New Republic have proved to be some of the strongest, even they have their own personal areas of weakness. From The Mandalorian's Din Djarin and Grogu to Ahsoka's titular Jedi Ahsoka Tano, everyone has something they could lose in a fight with Thrawn, which only makes his threat to the galaxy even more exciting. The New Republic's weakness and arrogance only adds to that threat, making the galaxy far too exposed in a future battle against someone as intelligently frightening as Thrawn - and here are 8 weaknesses he can target in either the greater government or its heroes.
8 Imperial Moles In The Amnesty Program The Mandalorian Season 3
The Mandalorian season 3 unveiled the New Republic's Amnesty Program, aimed towards providing former Imperials with a new outlook on and life within the galaxy following the Empire's fall. Elia Kane showed that despite the efforts the New Republic was trying to make with this program, the Empire has moles within it, and her schemes of ruining Doctor Penn Pershing's cloning research and dissuading the New Republic from sending aid to Nevarro were just a few examples of how they can continue to operate. Now that Moff Gideon is gone, Elia could go on to work exclusively for Thrawn, as could any others who are planted in the Amnesty Program with her.
7 The New Republic’s Lack Of Control In The Outer Rim The Mandalorian & Ahsoka
The New Republic has made it clear its leaders don't care about what happens in the Outer Rim, or at least strongly favor helping the planets closest to them before attending to matters on the Outer Rim. The planets of the Outer Rim are not only aware of this, but they prefer it, as even Din Djarin himself referred to the New Republic as a "joke" in The Mandalorian and Greef Karga has expressed his disinterest in making Nevarro an official part of the New Republic. Thrawn, then, could easily win over the Outer Rim by showing even just a sliver more care towards them than the New Republic does, or he can at least keep himself concealed there until he's ready to emerge and fight.
