Why Darth Vader VS Yoda Isn't Even Close! 

Just because Anakin never reached his full potential, doesn't mean he didn't become more powerful after becoming Vader.

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!

Luke Skywalker watched both of them die in Return of the Jedi.

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.

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.

Yoda has many centuries of experience.

Yoda: “I will, if Obi Wan cannot finish you.” Darth Vader: “If my master can’t destroy you, I will.”

Nine-Tailed Fox vs. Godzilla

So Yoda beats him cause he has more experience, is the better fighter, and because he’s insanely agile and fast

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.

Considering Obi Wan beat Anakin/Vader twice... I'd say Yoda would make Vader look like an amateur

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!

-Why Nightwing vs Captain America is not even close. -Why MCU Daredevil vs John Wick is closer than you think.

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!

This is even a question? Master Yoda BODIES Vader.

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.

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.

Anikin and Luke had 6 weeks of training combined, and people keep comparing them to 800+ years. Wow.

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

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

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

Yoda destroys Vader

Yoda used the force to drive his light saber. His dualing was through the will of the force not his physical prowess.

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.

Older Obi let Vader win because he knew Luke was watching.

What Obi-Wan did against Grievous, Yoda can do in a split second.

That being said the verdict is right. There's no way Vader is beating Yoda. One of the advantages Vader has on most of his opponents is that they don't know his Identity. Yoda knows who Vader is just like obi wan. And as we saw in the dark Knight rises when bane called out Batman's true Identity... It takes away from the Mystique.

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.

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.

noone said vader was faster than the emperor, where are you getting all this from

I’d do to Yoda and Vader what Sidious did to Maul and Savage Opress, but easier You may now give thanks to DOOM

There's a reason Sidious didn't want to see Yoda.

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.

If Yoda faught Vader on Mustaffa, I think he might've been able to save him. Obi was too close to him. Yoda's a bit like his great, great, great grandfather

It's wild how many casuals think Vader is weaker than anakin

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.

It's time for a" WHAT IF" Star wars series.

I always said this about Yoda, but the sad part is Obi-Wan was too weak to fight palpatine

Rancor vs skullcrawler

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

Anakin was no where near at his full potential in the mustafar duel

Hulk, Capt America, Hawk eye, Black Widow, Iron man Vs 50 Zinomorphs

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.

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?

12:36 I knew Yoda wins

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

Yoda also has 900 years experience training Jedi and is also a Jedi Grandmaster.

Anikin’s arrogance was his downfall!!

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

Disney destroys both of them.

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.

FP Luke and Anakin > Prime Yoda?? = ROTJ Sidious > Rots Sidious = Prequel Yoda > Prime Vader > KFV > ROTS Anakin > ROTJ Luke > AOTC Anakin

...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.

Darth Maul vs Psylock Darth Sidious vs Jean Gray General Grievous vs Nebula Shredder vs Predator

Can you rank every fighter from the Ip Man franchise?

Yoda Cake Walks post cybernetics Vader hands down 🔥

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?

Yoda just by"Experience*

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

I was literally thinking about this battle a yesterday because I wanted to see who would win

His lack of experience and patience cost him his potential.

Mace Windu vs Count Dooku

Palpatine didn't like using light sabers. He preferred to use the force.

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.

I love how people add things that weren’t in the scripf

Wait… people are still repping the idea that Yoda beats Darth Vader? 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.

Why tf does he say young sky walker is better then prime vadar he obviously doesnt know lore and comics darth vadar slain over hundreds of jedi just on a quest for 1 his old master accomplishing feats to make him in this topic at all because i would bever put yound anikan vs yoda any day he lost to obi wan who is not the best dueling jedis not even in the top five i would put asoka over obi wan

Why would he hide on Dagabah and live as an outcast hermit for 20 years if he could have easily taken out the Sith leadership?

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.

Big Things come in small packages📦

You know what, I think for once I’d like to see a fight on this channel that actually is close

i think don lemon could tell you when someone is in their prime how about prof. x vs. darth vader parasite vs. doomsday ultron vs. mecha godzilla hillary clinton vs. kamala harris (death battle)

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.

"Size matters not."

Kratos vs Dante

Which force will overcome the other-That's what to ponder the most about.

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

I don't always agree with you but this is spot on

Xenomorph (Alien) VS Runner (Alien 3) VS Newborn (Alien: Resurrection) VS Grid (Aliens vs. Predator) VS Predalien (Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem) VS Neomorph (Alien Covenant)

Day 1 of asking DanCo to credit his sources

Alternate universe theory Anakin Skywalker versus Darth Vader❤

Happy Friday.

Yeah, DanCo really dropped the ball. In Canon, it was blatantly established that Vader's injuries amplified his power in the force, not hindered them. Vader was even stated to be the most powerful sith in the galaxy, with one of said statements even being attributed to Vader not even a decade after Episode 3. Yoda at his prime was still a drop in the ocean that was Vader's power. In Legends, although Vader lost potential, he still remained immensely powerful, with material blatantly stating that Vader became stronger following his defeat on Mustafar. Vader wins, mid diff.

Please never say Vader was more on par than darth maul 😂 maul admitted he couldn’t deal with Vader alone and Vader was 80% of the Sidious peak power which was in ROTJ and both were more powerful than sidious was during ROTS

George already said obi wan threw the fight and obi wan was even stronger than vader in a new hope. My theory is he knew he could only defeat the emperor by becoming one with the force and guiding luke

First let us admit that there is a lack of consistency. Next Vader is physically strong due to cybernetics though not very flexible and has an unreal pain tolerance besides being naturally gifted to be the strongest due to his midi-chlorian content. The key though is intelligence where he is a very poor judge of character and easily manipulated while being arrogant and lacking self control/discipline. This is highlighted when he lost to Obi-Wan despite being the better because he was strategically out maneuvered and instead of going for the easy victory by attacking obiwan's feet chose to make an extravagant move of attempting to force jump over him. This shows that even with all the best natural attributes it is intelligence and self control that that will often determine victory. Luke was able to resist Palpatine's manipulations and influence Vader to turn showing that Luke had the right mix even with minimal training. Yoda is super mobile and has a very small hit box that is low to the ground making him a very hard target to hit adding his skills, force strength and wisdom to that makes him almost invincible.

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

Obi wan is the best! He beat maul 3 times, beat vader twice, and grievous. I can admit hes not the strongest if he fought against his opponents in an octagon, but he felt like a master tactician. Using the terrain, and understanding his opponents. This makes him someone you can't sleep on

Suggestion: Adriana Vazquez (Welcome to alcapulco) vs Olivia Benson (Law and Order)

Please never say anakin is more powerful than yoda😂

A dozen "Bob Semple tanks" versus 1 Jagdpanther + 1 Kuggelblitz. The Bob-Semple's get the high ground... I just finaly wana see someone having the high ground loose...

Vader was said to drop to 80-85% of his potential. He was still in the top 5 even 3 most powerful SW characters ever

Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku vs Sentry

This is fundamentally wrong. You claimed that Vader lost much of his potential AND his power after he was put into the suit. That's incorrect. He simply lost most of his potential. Vader post-Mustafar became far more powerful than he was before he was burned. He simply could not ever reach anywhere near his full potential had that not happened.

Wrong Anakin wasn’t the most powerful Jedi in revenge of the sith. Vader in Episode 6 is his prime in canon movies

Next vid *Why Kingpin vs Tobias Whale isn’t even close!*

Video is 100% correct.

Vader became more powerful even in his suit than Anakin was before his near immolation. It's just that he couldn't achieve his full potential anymore.
