Just because Anakin never reached his full potential, doesn't mean he didn't become more powerful after becoming Vader.
Right vader would destroy anakin
Naw he definitely gotten weaker because not being of flesh.
@@TheMasonson His potential got cut, for sure. And upon receiving those Mustafar injuries, he was 100% weaker than Anakin. But when he got back on his feet and became accustomed to his suit, say a little before the Obi Wan show, Vader would have obliterated Anakin no question.
@@animafia-family While Anakin would be the "prime" version of Vader in terms of physical abilities, he wasn't as mature as Vader was. We also never saw the prime version of Yoda. We saw a Yoda that was past his prime. You can argue that Palpatine was afraid of Yoda, and that's the reason he did all the smoke and mirror tactics before the Jedi counsel was destroyed.
For some reason people seem to think Vader was weakened to 80% of Darth Sidious's max strength in the force when he lost his limbs and got burned.
When in reality he was only weakened to 80% of his own max strength in the force which at 100% was literally DOUBLE the strength Darth Sidious had in the force.
The only reasons Vader never defeated Sidious are because of his suits vulnerability to force lightning, and the fact he focused more on dueling than the force itself even after his injuries.
If Vader has simply honed his potential in the force, he'd have annihilated Sidious.
Luke Skywalker watched both of them die in Return of the Jedi.
Luke also watched R2-D2 take a blast to the dome in Star War Episode 4 and die. Although a droid can be rebuilt with its processor still in tact.
Luke Skywalker would have been dead if wasn't for Darth Vader his father.
Darth Vader killed Palpatine, if not he would have watched Luke die
Yoda: Over, it is, young Skywalker. The high ground, I have.
Darth Vader: You underestimate the power of the Dark Side!
Yoda: Try it, do not!
"Do or do not, there is no try."
I’ve seen you mostly on anime related content. I guess your getting into Star Wars
@@teaandwinewithmira3301 yea I’m slowly getting into Star Wars
I imagine it kind of funny tho that anakin and Yoda would be the same height if it was Yoda that jumped to the higher spot
😂😂
No, Vader wasn't the most powerful in the galaxy during the revenue of the sith. Sidious said he (Anakin) would become more powerful than either he and Yoda. Which would've been true... Had he not fight obi wan on Mustafar. But at that particular time no he wasn't the most powerful in the galaxy. Vader hadn't reached his peak. He was still an infant in the dark side when revenge of the sith took place.
True but by ROTJ he was more powerful than yoda but still weaker than sidious since they both grew in power substantially since ROTS
@@tvvistedv3nom26
Originally, Vader was always more powerful than Sidious.
He didn’t have to obey his master because of any threat of violence, it was the pact he made with Sidious and the dark side.
Lucas film repeatedly confirmed Vader was the Ultimate fighter. Bar none.
Lets look at the facts
The Novels confirm that if Luke didn’t stop Vader and Sidious then the Jedi would have been finished.
Lego Star Wars confirms that Suit Vader is stronger than Dooku who stalemates Yoda.
Star Wars Comics and Shows confirm that Darth Vader and Sidious are the most powerful individuals in the Galaxy.
Sidious toyed with Yoda and Yoda exiled himself when he realized this.
Suit Vader nearly CRUSHED Sidious when he got put in the suit and found out Padmé died.
The fact that Luke is the last hope of the Galaxy should tell you that Yoda was not on Vader’s Tier.
Obi Wan in the New Hope Movie is stronger than Yoda and has a precise mastery over the usage of The Force.
Sam Witwer had said that Obi Wan’s narrative was to be the strongest defense in the Galaxy. Look at how that worked out against Vader? Exactly.
Sidious heavily implied that he held back against Yoda in Order 66 saying he only uses the Lightsaber to spite and insult Jedi.
I can only potentially see Yoda beating Suited Vader in Pre-ANH Era before Vader’s powers begin reawakening where’s he’s stated stronger in Empire Strikes Back and stronger in Return Of The Jedi.
Darth Vader would dominate Yoda, especially ESB and ROTJ.
@@johnarcher9480
I was thinking the same
No Yoda was far more powerful than Sideous. The only reason he lost was because he fell and the clones were coming to the senate chamber. So he would be outnumbered if he stuck around.
Yoda: “I will, if Obi Wan cannot finish you.”
Darth Vader: “If my master can’t destroy you, I will.”
I don’t think that any force user has even been more powerful than Yoda. He’s the only Jedi that stopped force lightning with his hands. Young Anakin was super powerful especially after he first turned but he lost to Obi Wan. Yoda said that Obi Wan wasn’t powerful enough to beat Sidious. Yoda losing to Sidious was plot armor. Sidious tried to exit rather than fight Yoda.
Sidious is more powerful in the force than yoda but yoda is definitely the better duelist
@@tvvistedv3nom26 would you mind explaining your rationale?
@@anthonyewing457
Read the canon comics Sidous is the strongest character by far in canon, he drove dominated a kaiju and was able to withstand the blasts of star heat in the comics
@@tvvistedv3nom26 I’m not too convinced palpatine is more powerful than yoda, palpatine needed force lightening to push yoda in the beginning of their fight which yoda was capable of blocking but he didn’t react fast enough the first time to he got sent to the wall. Yoda simply pushed palpatine back into the chair and then sidious tried to run. He ran away from him again in their duel he realized he was likely going to lose eventually if he kept deuling him so he ran to the Senate chamber to throw the pods at him. Sidious prepared for that moment in the novelization he had a plan and home turf adavantage. If he fought yoda on solid neutral ground I really don’t see any way sidious wins in the end. Sorry for the essay but that’s just my thought process on those characters and what happened in their fight
@@markykrajky13 sidious is the strongest living sith during the events of star wars, he isn't the strongest sith of all though as that title goes to the 1st sith emperor valqoriant who became so OP that for the 1st and only time in history the sith and jedi orders had to team up to jump him and even that was not enough to beat him, it wasn't until the force itself turned against valqoriant that he was finally overwhelmed during the final battle and defeated/destroyed, just to give you a idea on how OP valqoriant is/was at age 6 he was able to instantly defeat a full fledged sith lord with a single thought and via force manipulation he literally willed it so that sithlord could never use/connect to the force again rendering him a regular person and as a adult he could use mind domination on entire planets to instantly enslave them then make the entire population of that world commit mass suicide and this once included a army of 8,000 other sith lord he lured to the planet along with a unspecified sized army of jedi (was atleast in the thousands) that was sent to investigate and deal with all the sith after they received reports a army of sith lords was amassing on that planet, he also had the ability to basically pull a galactus and literally devour/drain all the force energy/life force of all living things on a planet which he used to increase his own power and life span thousands if times over, now going to the sequel comics both luke and laya eventually become the 2 strongest recorded jedi in history and strongest mortal/non cosmic beings which includes anakin/vader and palpatine along with yoda, although it was recently revealed in the new ashoka series that after anakin/vader died at some point anakain/vader finally fulfilled "the fathers" request and replaced him as the new keeper of balance of the force and also the fact anakain/vader has awakened his full chosen one potential and is now most likely the strongest being we have ever seen in SWs history, there are also other cosmic beings like the 5 emotion priests and the father,son and daughter who are shown in the clone wars and in the comics theres another cosmic being known as the mother of chaos who eventually will fight luke and a army of jedi and sith after she escapes her prison, the comics also talk about unexplored and/or forbidden zones where very powerful force wielding cosmic entities dwell that have powers far surpassing non cosmic beings, we may actually get to see the mother soon who goes by the name of abeloth as the recent/new ashoka series seems to be following a storyline thats from the comics that led to her escape from her prison and rampage in the galaxy, all of these characters/beings i have mentioned make even palpatine look weak
Yoda would win. He is too smart and studied. Mastered everything over centuries. Plus he is crazy fast when he needs to be. His force power is too strong. His absorb and telekinesis. No way he loses this fight. Maybe on his deathbed, but in his prime. No way.
So Yoda beats him cause he has more experience, is the better fighter, and because he’s insanely agile and fast
Not even
What could Vader do to yoda
Yoda has many centuries of experience.
Who had more experience? Annakin or Dooku
@@consciousgentile5141Anakin had to tap into the dark side to defeat Dooku
@@csc4781Anakin still wasn’t far off from him because they had already fight a number of times before during the war
@@csc4781but you’re still right tho 👍🏾
@@TheRealTaolf you’re right as well 👌🏿
Nine-Tailed Fox vs. Godzilla
I like this matchup indeed.
10 tails would make more sense
Godzilla shits on the fox.
Yoda reminded Luke that the dark side was easier, not stronger. Yoda earned his power the correct way. Fundamentals, discipline, knowledge, experience, technique...Yoda had everything but size
Size, matters not
Considering Obi Wan beat Anakin/Vader twice... I'd say Yoda would make Vader look like an amateur
The second fight barley even counts bc Vader was still getting used to his new suit and hadn't fully adjusted
I’m pretty sure it’s stated anakin was conflicted on mustafar so he wouldn’t be at full power the one that attack the Jedi temple is probably his apex before Vader
-Why Nightwing vs Captain America is not even close.
-Why MCU Daredevil vs John Wick is closer than you think.
Closer it is not reality must you face
@thanos8914 It is close.
Daredevil is esentially fighting another Punisher (with minor differences and arguably more accurate)...and Matt didn't do so hot against Frank at the begining of season 2.
Daredevil couldnt beat the punisher and had his hands filled with kingpin
Daredevil would wipe the floor with all-that-I-do-is-fancy-aikido Wick....
This is even a question?
Master Yoda BODIES Vader.
Palpatine didn't like using light sabers. He preferred to use the force.
Yoda can absorb anything the Emperor throws at him. So, it really comes down to Force use until exhaustion or a duel...
Anakin was no where near at his full potential in the mustafar duel
Disney destroys both of them.
FACTS
Disney's fan fiction? XD
Best comment ever!
Dude, IF you watched episode IV's lightsaber duel between Vader and Obi Wan, you'd clearly see that Obi wan sacrificed himself during the duel. Vader didn't beat him. Obi wan became a force ghost, Vader's blade hit NOTHING!
That's what I thought. Just dissappeared.
He sacrificed himself because he couldn't win.
@@kirkdavis2881 What the heck are u talking about? People still don't understand that scene? Obi-Wan told Luke he was the Last Jedi right? But Luke was so stubborn. At that point when Obi-Wan was fighting with Vader, he looked over his shoulder, realized Luke is there and watching them. He knows this is the only chance to "motivate" Luke, so he sacrificed himself in front of Luke. To create a path for him to Vader. That duel was so equal, they would have fought for years. It's so obvious when I was a child I understood it...
@@SheepEnlightener Yeah, the very fact that Ben was able to become a Force Ghost makes him one of the most powerful Jedi in galactic history. The movie doesn't show it but Obi-Wan was a powerhouse during Episode 4. I'd say that he passed Windu, simply because he could train for 19 years in order to do so, and came very close to Yoda. Ofc disregarding Disney's fan fiction. If he shut himself off from the Force for 10 years, there is no way he could stalemate, let alone beat Vader. So the Obi-Wan series is complete crap.
If Vader didn't get his limbs cut off and wasn't on a constant life support system. Maybe he would have a chance against the grandmaster.
Rancor vs skullcrawler
Skull crawler low-mid diff
noone said vader was faster than the emperor, where are you getting all this from
so many incorrect statements in this video
@@messiahep3249 Yeah, I was gonna quit after 1 minute because there was just too much BS. But then he retracted Episode 3 being Vader's peak, so I stuck with it. And then he went back to Episode 3 being his peak. Episode 6 was ofc the peak of both Vader and Sidious, there is just no way around that. They spent 23 years delving deeper into the dark side, that's enough to make up for Vader's setback on Mustafar. And Yoda's peak is somewhere between Episode 2 and 5, so at least he got the peaks right. I disagree with the conclusion though but that's always gonna be up for debate.
I’d do to Yoda and Vader what Sidious did to Maul and Savage Opress, but easier
You may now give thanks to DOOM
Definitely
You'd embarrass them
All hail DOOM
When Vader wanted to hunt down Yoda, Palpatine told him that Yoda would have killed him as Anakin AND as Vader. Also, Sidious actually said Vader "will be" more powerful than them, thus, he wasn't quit there yet.
Actually, Yoda wins without even drawing his lightsaber...he uses the Force to shut of Vader's power supply to his suit! Vader suffocates and dies!
Yoda absorbs lightning but he doesn't use it since its a dark side force. He CAN counter it but that's only after absorbing it.
Older Obi let Vader win because he knew Luke was watching.
It's time for a" WHAT IF" Star wars series.
Can you rank every fighter from the Ip Man franchise?
What Obi-Wan did against Grievous, Yoda can do in a split second.
Obi-Wan actually basically surrendered by choice. He wasn't beaten in the last fight at least not in the classic sense of being beaten.
Yoda used the force to drive his light saber. His dualing was through the will of the force not his physical prowess.
The only reason why Yoda didn't go to Mustafar himself to stop Anakin is because he would have been sending Obi-Wan to his death to face and square off against Sidious. Even though Anakin had off the charts power when he finally fully connected with the dark side, he would have made fatal mistakes facing Yoda. Yoda had the clear advantage of centuries of knowledge in the force over Anakin. Yoda would have defeated him and finished him off. Probably would have cut off his head in a final blow. Especially after reviewing the files and seeing what Anakin had done in the Jedi Temple. Yoda knew Anakin was nobody to underestimate.
Host: Anakin was suppose to have the most potential of anybody.
Grogu: Hold my lightsaber..... hey! Give that back, what do you expect me to fight with.
I think Yoda’s fast Ataru fighting style and the fact that he is probably the most experienced force user in the whole galaxy will make him win
His lack of experience and patience cost him his potential.
Yoda also has 900 years experience training Jedi and is also a Jedi Grandmaster.
There's a reason Sidious didn't want to see Yoda.
Anikin and Luke had 6 weeks of training combined, and people keep comparing them to 800+ years. Wow.
What are you talking about? Anakin trained for 36 years. He even had a greater potential than Tenebrae, which was way beyond Yoda. It's true that he had a huge setback on Mustafar but 23 years of misery (fuel) under the tutelage of the second most ruthless Sith Lord in galactic history was more than enough to make up for that.
The fact of the matter is that Episode 3 Vader was very close to Windu, Yoda and Sidious, they were all 9's according to Nick Gillard. And Episode 6 Vader went beyond that, I don't see how he couldn't. He stalemated Obi-Wan during Episode 4, an Obi-Wan who was very close to Yoda at that point. Assuming we ignore Disney and he actually spent 19 years training and not cutting meat. And after Episode 4, Vader got even more powerful. So ofc he could win against a Clone Wars Yoda. And during Episode 5, Yoda was only 1 year away from dying, so that was probably not his peak.
@Sandlund93 Anakin was never fully trained. He was never trusted by anyone. You're counting Sidious? Oh, please. He put a lighting rod up his behind and kept him like a pet. He was a mental basket case. He kept himself in a pain amplifier so he would stop crying. His aura is created by his perception. Fans made him intimidating. High ranking officers spoke to him like the Emperor's valet two decades after the emperor took over.
End of the day over 800 years of training, meeting, fighting, in the minds of the greatest Jedi of those times. Yoda is way beyond either of them off of repetition alone. Secondary stories and comic books aside. It's not about potential. What shoulda woulda coulda happened. Neither Anakin or Luke met anything people wanted from them. Ever.
@@mistermyself1128 I'll admit my Sith bias. I still only have 3 people above Yoda though and he would obviously be the greatest challenge Vader ever faced. But matchups that never happened are always gonna be shoulda woulda coulda.
I love how people add things that weren’t in the scripf

It's wild how many casuals think Vader is weaker than anakin
There is ove extremely important aspect of Vader you are missing. The constant battles he had to fight. Take a fit guy in his prime, hitting a bag in a gym and a street guy fighting every day for survival. Most of the time, the street guy is going to win. Getting hit isn't natural. The more you fight and get hit, the more you can take. I'm not saying Vader would win, but it's closer than you think.
12:36 I knew Yoda wins
Some great points, I feel the same yoda comes out on top, but then he will have regrets. They should do a what if series on things like this.
8:45 Yoda: strikes drones on their feet.
Drones: lose their heads.
Vader got overall more powerful once he was in the suit, but Yoda would have had an easier time with him. and even on Mustafar, Yoda would have bent him over almost immediately
Obiwan was about 10 years older then Anakin and would have been in his 50's in a New Hope. While I like Alec Guiness he was almost to old, it was more like he was playing a 70 or 80 year old.

How can you say that Vader is most powerful at the point when he didn't even know the Darkside yet. He was a Sith that had t even been through any of the things that gave him his strength in the darkside.
Mace Windu vs Count Dooku
Mace beat Darth Sidious with his lightsaber style. Dooku would lose the same way.
I always said this about Yoda, but the sad part is Obi-Wan was too weak to fight palpatine
Mace would have beat Sidious if Anakin had not Butted in !!
I was literally thinking about this battle a yesterday because I wanted to see who would win
Next vid *Why Kingpin vs Tobias Whale isn’t even close!*
Which force will overcome the other-That's what to ponder the most about.
The Jedi held him back on a lot of ways to help him understand and how to train and use his powers he was destined to get. As he turned he was feeling a power that he knew was powerful but at the same time he really didn't understand them yet, didn't know how to really use them or even know just how many things he was going to be able to do. That's because the Jedi between not trusting in him,fear, and I think even some jealousy. By this age they should have had him at the temple with Yoda,obi wan or at least another really powerful master to guide him through the learning of these unbelievable powers he was already near having at full potential. But no they chose to ignore him,not do the things he really needed to be the chosen one as they built him up since he was a kid. How do you not take the most Powerful of any Jedi to ever live,not just the Jedi but powerful then any sith also. How do you just ignore him and yet,make him be around, and alone with a Chancellor that none of you trust , how. The only thing that kept obi wan alive was the conflict Anakin was fighting inside himself the whole time they fought. If it wasn't,he would have killed obi wan pretty fast because one thing he did understand with the lightsaber and dueling. If he had killed obi wan,that would have pushed any other feelings for the Jedi out of his mind. If he then fought Yoda, Yoda would have had to flip and jump like crazy just to try and keep p from getting hit by the saber and that would tire him out fast and then he would be killed. It's sad how this whole story is but the Jedi made him turn more then anything else. All the things they pulled and done against him and the Jedi codes were terrible. Even his Master and father figure does a forbidden strike on him that leaves him without his arms and legs. Think about that,all the shit that they had done the last and most betrayal one could do,is a move that isn't allowed and forbidden is done to him. I'm sure Anakin and anyone else would rather have been killed then left that way and to make things worse. He has to feel the torture of being burned almost to death as he's being watched. Yeah it's pretty terrible if you really think about everything that actually went down with him.
in the end then, what made luke so great? self control? if he had a jedi master to train him would luke have been better or just become a knight faster?
You know what, I think for once I’d like to see a fight on this channel that actually is close
why wasn't the emperor insistent on finding and killing yoda, the leader of the jedi? seems like he would've been the most important to make sure is dead?
very accurate.
now if anikin had never got all messed up and kept training, he would have beatne sids and yoda at his full potential
But in the comics it is stated Darth Vader surpassed his younger self.
Vader became way more powerful in both dueling and the force after ROTS he also got smarter and wiser in the force and his tactics, ROTS Vader was just the start and although injured at the end he still gained in power
Anikin’s arrogance was his downfall!!

They did fight once, in an alternate universe comic. It was a reimagining of Empire Strikes Back. Vader kills Yoda in a duel. Not easily, but does win
"Size matters not."
Is your claim that Vader was faster than the Emperor made off that one scene is lords of the Sith novel where Vader blocked Palpatine’s strike? If so there’s important context of knowing the Vader confirmed that the Emperor was only using a fraction of his power that day a wanted to appear weaker than he actually was inorder to test Vader’s loyalty. It’s more than likely Palpatine could be MUCH faster than he was showing off in that moment.
Happy Friday.
...Battle Front 2, Vader always routes Yoda in hero v.s. hero battles. In cannon Yoda fought Sideous and Obi Wan fought Vader because they had to clean up the "messes" that their neglect and short shortsightedness created.

I agree yoda would beat anakin but anakin didn’t lose to Kenobi because of skill. Lucas made it clear anakin was above Kenobi in every way and was only behind mace and yoda by ROTS he lost due to his own arrogance and inner conflict against Kenobi
In Disney Canon, Darth Vader wins. He didn’t lose any force power after Mustafar, so he just continued growing in power. I’d say Yoda still has more skill in lightsaber duelling, but Canon Vader is so much more powerful in the force that he likely beats Yoda, especially when we consider his advantages in strength and durability.
However, in Legends, Yoda absolutely gigastomps Vader. ROTS Senate Yoda is already fast enough to speed blitz tf out of Vader, his advantage in duelling skill is even bigger than it is in Canon, and Yoda is easily more powerful in the force. In legends, Vader did become less powerful after ROTS, which forced him to adapt and change his fighting style a lot. Vader did become a better duellist and was way smarter than he is in ROTS, but he still had a lot of catching up to do after Mustafar. Still, yoda is more powerful by feats, is a much better duellist, and the speed gap is insane. ROTS Senate Yoda is fast enough to match (and arguably outpace) ROTS Post Order 66 Darth Sidious, who’s faster and more agile than ROTS Pre Order 66 Darth Sidious, who was fast enough to duel mace Windu at such insane speeds that ROTS Anakin Skywalker couldn’t even perceive him and mace (they appeared to be flickering in and out of existence from his PoV), and Anakin is faster and more agile than ROTJ Vader due to not having the heavy suit weighing him down. So Yoda blitzes tf out of him. And keep in mind that this is just ROTS Senate Yoda. Yoda continues to grow in power, skill, versatility, and knowledge after ROTS, till reaching his absolute peak in TESB. TESB Yoda handwaves Vader easily.
If you go by Disney canon then Vader is a better duelist than yoda since they made a statement that Vader is the best duelist of all time
And yeah in the EU Yoda beats him but if we go by Lucas canon I think Vader can win at least in the force but in saber combat he’ll lose if he doesn’t use the force to assist him. By ROTJ Vader definitely grew more powerful than yoda
@@tvvistedv3nom26I don’t go by baseless statements, I go by their actual demonstrated feats and abilities. Star Wars fans are perhaps the worst when it comes to vs debates cause all Star Wars fans do is cherry pick statements to form their arguments. I can easily give you canon statements that yoda is the best duelist in canon. But by feats and abilities, yoda has centuries of duelling training and refinement over Vader, mastered the seven forms to a greater degree, has trained better duellists, and has better feats against more skilled fighters. Canon Vader has struggled in lightsaber combat against foes vastly less skilled than yoda. So yeah I’d rather have yoda’s skill than have a baseless statement from some little sourcebook.
Lucas’s G-Canon is completely different from legends continuity. Lucas straight up confirmed this. In legends, yoda has better feats of power and has way more knowledge of the force
@@Wes_Bradley-Taubner Yeah, I just go by G canon.
@@tvvistedv3nom26I mean, the thing is, G-Canon, Disney Canon, and Legends are all basically different continuities with different power levels for each of the characters.
A might beat B in G-Canon and Legends, but not Disney Canon (Yoda vs Vader for example). A might beat B in Disney Canon and Legends, but not G-Canon (Old Ben Kenobi vs Qui Gon Jinn for example). It all depends on what versions of the characters being used in the vs battle. In a Legends battle like this one, G-Canon scaling isn’t relevant.
Suggestion: Adriana Vazquez (Welcome to alcapulco) vs Olivia Benson (Law and Order)
FP Luke and Anakin > Prime Yoda?? = ROTJ Sidious > Rots Sidious = Prequel Yoda > Prime Vader > KFV > ROTS Anakin > ROTJ Luke > AOTC Anakin
I see nothing but 100% facts (prime Yoda would probably be around TESB actually. Many fans think Yoda’s prime is way before the movies because that would be his physical prime. However, Yoda continues to grow in power and skill, even after ROTS, which makes him a superior combatant overall compared to his younger versions)
@@Wes_Bradley-Taubner Yoda’s body by the time of TESB was confirmed to have grown very sick. He was holding himself together with the force to train Luke.
There’s also statements in a couple prequel era novels that imply that Yoda even then was slowing in combat as well as not having as much of a command over the force due to age.
Remember yoda would’ve been the equivalent of someone in their late 80’s by the time of the prequels.
@@HatsStayUnitedNa Prime Vader > Revenge Yoda. In Legends it is stated that Vader has 80% of Sidious Power. But the Power from Return of the Jedi Sidious
Return of the Jedi Sidious >>>>>> Revenge Yoda
So Prime Legends Vader > Revenge Yoda
But Prime Yoda > Prime Vader
Prime Sidious > Prime Yoda
In Disney Canon Vader is more powerful than Yoda in every case. This is stated in the Vader Comics and in the new disney canon books.
I don't agree that Aniken just after he turned to the dark side was the most powerful version of himself. I think he lost power as a result of losing body mass, but I think he more than made up for that after years as Vader. Did he reach his full potential? No because of his lost mass, but I think the experience he gained and what he learned in the dark side more than made up for it. The only thing I feel that would have inhibited him as a Sith was his archaic suit.
I also feel he was much more powerful as Vader than Count Dooku or especially even Darth Maul.
I thought Anakin used form 4 or is it form 6?
5 specifically focusing on djem so variant. He was very very good with shien as well though.
Vader used Djem so as his core but implemented aspects from 3, 2 and 6.
Danco really doesnt know shit does he?
Exactly💀
Correct
EXACTLY BRO.
Facts
Prove him wrong then.
Just because most powerful potential or it is given , doesnt mean will always be the victor.
Can you please do The Flash vs Shazam please comic version
Kinda wish to see more Jedi and sith use tudiminus honestly I have always found force fields really cool i think we saw some in the knights of the republic but idk
i read somewhere vader could’ve upgraded his suit and made it more convenient for himself but having to struggle and be in pain everyday with his initial suit strengthened his connection to the dark side
Which is stupid, because he could do BOTH
Anakin is still a genius with machines and technology.
Increasing his mobility, making the suit resistant to force lightning, reducing its weight and so on.
I think it would be possible for Vader to win...IF he was given a better suit. Palpatine deliberately made his suit limited. Also, vulnerable to force lightning. Great video though! Loved it
Second, no he didn't. Vader did not defeat obi wan in a new hope. Obi wan gave himself up and become one with the force before Vader could strike him down. Obi wan didn't fight Vader with the intent on beating him. It was another lesson obi wan needed to teach his old Padawan. In reality, obi wan is 3-0 against Vader. 3-0 against maul, but 0-2 against Dooku. Quite a resume if you ask me.. And I didn't even mention Grevious.
The novel states otherwise. He was too weak at that point physically to withstand Vader. Also all the other times he won were due to anakin’s inner conflict and on mustafar his arrogance. Plainly just plot armor as even Lucas explained anakin was above Kenobi by ROTS. He was only behind mace and yoda out of the Jedi by that time and obviously behind sidious
MCU ghost rider versus DCEU general Zod
Zilla jr, vs the Mega Kauju
Lets just consider Kenobi not canon. Lol
Canon* not cannon. A cannon is a weapon used on a battlefield.
