Crookedstar is way better than Bluestar.

I'd say Bluestar, but only because we see more of her. Also, a bit off-topic, but hey, another Flight Rising player!

Light Flight is the best<3 also I've always liked Crookedstar a tad bit more over Bluestar, even before their super editions

Crookedstar. He never pulled the "poor me, pity me" card like Bluestar did when she gave everyone a negative attitude. Crookedstar handled everything in a more mature way. I don't mind Bluestar but she could have been written better.

Bluefur was all "pity me " then Bluestar was actully a good leader until her last 4 lives when she was like "pity me Im old". Crookedstar led until the very end. And being from such a hard past made him wise and strong which is why I chose Crookedstar.

And being from such a hard past made him wise and strong which is why I chose Crookedstar. If I remember correctly, it was both Bluepaw and Bluefur that that wanted pity, for very good reasons. However, she was basically told the bury everything because of how Clan life works... If you think about, that's effectively what she makes her Clan do after Tigerclaw’s betrayal… It really puts Thunderclan in a less sympathetic light if you think about it that way… As for Bluestar during her insanity, it was the exact opposite of wanting pity. She drove everyone away who tried to help her and retreated within herself to brood with Starclan… So it was less, I want pity, and more I don't trust anyone anymore. And she had two lives left when that happened, not four (although she made the Clan believed she had four left for a while). Crookedstar was a good leader throughout his books, sure, but there's so much of that we don't see… For example, how did he really feel when Graystripe joined his Clan for his illegitimate kits? Why appoint such an aggressive and arrogant cat as Leopardstar for his deputy when he was the exact opposite? And what were his last days like, when he was sick and dying? Did he lose himself like Bluestar? So, in the end, even if he might've seemed like a better leader, it still is not really a fair comparison…

So, in the end, even if he might've seemed like a better leader, it still is not really a fair comparison… He chose Leapordfur because he knew she would age and become wise. And he made the right choice. Rivetclan got a bit soft under Crookedstat but Leapordstar made Riverclan strong and powerful again. She never gave up and that is why he chose her. I feel like he also chose her because she had a hard past and she knew it made her stronger

You can't ignore her flaws though… She made her Clan strong, but at the expense of so many others… For example, there was what happened to Stonefur and Mistystar, and how easily she was swayed by Tigerstar, and the gatherings where she incited fights (I remember at least one where she called someone a prey-stealer without reason, and it led to an argument with all of the cats). Not to mention that she acted very distrustful towards a number of people who genuinely needed help (Thunderclan after the fire comes to mind)… And finally, after all was said and done, she only apologized to Mistystar for everything that happened to her on her deathbed…
And in order for the cats to survive, all four (or five) Clans need to be kept alive… I feel like Leopardstar didn't completely grasp the concept, and didn't get enough consequences for her actions, so that is why she isn't one of my favorite characters…
