    Also we haven't seen before the power of teleportation.Because of their unique bond we see them communicate with their eyes,they nod to eachother in a high emotional way and then Rey passes the legendary lightsaber of his kin to Ben. Now,he is worthy of holding it. Now that he is back to the Light.

      That scene was beautiful and you’re correct that they are the only ones we have seen do such a thing, but this was only possible through the strength of the dyad. My evaluation was based on Rey and Kylo as separate people versus them being one in the same.

    Ben is trained by strong force users for almost his whole life, that gives him a solid advantage over Rey.
    But with more training overtime she would possibly catch up and by evolving their bond both potentially intensity there abilities to a immense level.

      Yes, because she trains for a day in episode 7 and 8 and is already a jedi master level

    Great assessment. I agree that Ben is stronger in the force than she is. He's stronger, has had more experience. Rey has never ever beat Kylo toe to toe. The times she has beat him, he was either injured or distracted.
    It is such a shame there aren't more Vlogs like yours for the ST. There is so much food for thought in these movies. But most of the content on YT is just incel/manbaby related anger or Reylo's who are mad that Ben died.

  • @heckanice7278

    Ben achieved what anakin sought after and Rey is the force equivalent of a spirit bomb. It is crystal clear they are the strongest users of the force.

    You are correct Rey has a long way to go but I believe she will find the original force tree where the father, daughter and son. The original force users. There she will ascend to fulfill her potential as vergence or a living force nexus. This of course will rest in the novels to come are written, if history is any guide. Right now Daisy Riddle is unlikely to do another Star Wars film.

  • @scottmcmichael319
    @scottmcmichael319 Před 3 lety +3

    I agree I think Kylo is undeniably more trained than Rey, but Rey is more powerful and will become one of the most powerful force users ever, just an example similar to Rey is luke in return of the Jedi, he didn’t seem that powerful but as he continued to train he eventually reached his peak and became insanely powerful, I personally see Rey heading down a similar path

  • @ramonbetzler7786

    ?Q: Is Snoke training Ben/Kylo in 'The Force' or the 'Darkside"?????

    • @StarWarsLab
      @StarWarsLab  Před 4 lety +1

      Well the dark side is one facet of the force, the light being the other. But to answer what I think you were trying to ask, he is trained in the dark side primarily, but also to keep a level head. This is why in The Last Jedi Snoke tells Kylo he was unbalanced in is duel with Rey on Starkiller Base. Although they are masters of the dark side, they still must remain somewhat balanced, in the sense that they can’t lose focus or control of the task at hand or of their emotions. Yes, they want to use their hate and anger but it needs to be channeled in a controlled way. Remember in Revenge of the Sith when Palpatine says to Anakin that his anger “gives him focus, makes him stronger”.

    Rey does not have mor potential but because unlike kylo she was untrained through the dayad she is learning new things which kylo already knows they have equal potential and rey at Max would only have a tiny edge .

  • @braydenlee544
    @braydenlee544 Před 4 lety +1

    Anakin skywalkers midichlorian count:27,000. Palpatines: 19,000. You divide those by 4 and it’s clear that ben had a clear advantage if trained properly. Even Jedi masters like kit fisto, plo koon, and ki aid mundi are more powerful. And obi wan Kenobi doesn’t have as high of a ceiling as Rey but was more powerful in the movies

  • @firstname8046
    @firstname8046 Před 3 lety

    she does have potential but I don't see her above kenobi or maul, venator scene and the fact the kenobis force repulse and his uprooting of 3 trees while stabilizing a ship definitely outclasses her for the moment. Light saber skill is not a competition. She has a basic form 1 fighting style that barely has any technique at all while kylo has a minimalistic form 5 lightsaber combat. Rey skills as a force wielder are master to low council, kylo is low to mid council, but lightsaber she is knight at best and so is kylo

  • @amazing4403
    @amazing4403 Před 4 lety

    Kylo should not have become a force ghost besucase you can not exhibit Pashin in life so only jedi can become force ghosts well at least that is the rule in legends I don’t know about it in canon.
    Also in legends Sidious revived him self with essence transfer, but I don’t know if this is the same in Canon.

    They were ragdolled by palpatine. They are powerful bit top 10?? No not yet l. They both have the potential to be top 10.i would argue Ben has more potential due to a stronger lineage but that’s a different discussions but they aren’t top 10.

      Except for Reys force training (she became probably as powerful as Yoda in just 1 year) she is a very, very good character and she's very very strong. I don't even need to say anything about Kylo Ren because he's so perfect.

      Lets just be honest. Rey was bad, agreed. But Kylo? What, are you high or something Master Kenobi? Has Satine been bothering you? I mean come on that guy did what Vader couldn't, saved someone close to him. In the comics, he used force lightning. Blocked a lightsaber by force. If he can heal, he can drain life too. Stopping a bolt midair. Killed 6 force sensitives who were basically padawan level. Took 3 padawans on and beat them like they were nothing. Almost killed Luke Skywalker in his teenage days. Killed a force sensitive and former leader of Knights of Ren by force lightning. And killed a Zillo Beast which Vader lost to. Destroyed the cave of Dagobah with one telekinetic attack. Held a large ship by the force. I mean do you seriously need more feats? This guy was OP. In terms of force ability, even higher than Maul and Dooku according to me, and equal to Vader in terms of sheer power.
