why is potential a thing when its a battle between Luke Skywalker and Palpatine at a time where he hadn't yet reached his full potential, it just seems like a unnecessary point that wouldn't actually give him an edge in a battle
Luke as BOBF is already above Sidious. Snoke is stated to be on the level of ROTJ Palps and Luke bested him. The whole point of Palps reveal in ROS was that he waited until Luke was dead because he was afraid of him.
@@jonasjanner9761 It is stated as such in A family at War. Snoke is hinted to be a Luke clone, so it makes sense that a failed, deformed clone is as powerful as ROTJ Palps.
You seriously overestimate Luke's dueling. BOBF Luke was not the one who was capable of just spamming force speed to the point where it seemed like several lightsabers were fighting at the same time. He also had only like 7 years of saber training, 3 years of which was just memorizing Vader's moves.
AOTC Sidious rocks ANH Luke, No difficulty. TCW Sidious rocks ESB Luke, No difficulty. ROTJ Luke defeats the Senate, High Difficulty. Prime Luke defeats Prime Sidious, Mid-Difficulty. Pre-Exile Luke claps ROTJ Sidious, Low Difficulty.
@@RJA_edits Bro was literally about to die from his lightnings he just couldn’t handle his own attack and Luke was hit by lightnings on every portion of his body he has just a better durability
