Do not underestimate an old man in an organization where many die young.
I love this quote so much. I used it years ago when talking Obi-Wan’s final duel with Maul.
@@TheStupendousWave Very true, but we have to take into account that Yoda spent like 870 of his 900 years of life in more or less complete peace, while Anakin spent most of his life on the frontlines. Few Jedi actually died young. If we argue straight facts, Yoda kind of only took L's throughout the series, and he didn't beat Dooku conclusively which Anakin did. Honestly, there's very little Yoda has done in Star Wars that Anakin hasn't surpassed by a landslide.
If we for example think back to the Dooku vs Yoda fight, Yoda interrupts the fight and lets Dooku get away to stop the metal construction from falling on Obi-Wan and Anakin, which is impressive, but that he had to tap as hard into the force as we see him do to do so compared to how Anakin stopped that ship from taking of roughly 10 years later. Idk about the weight of that metal, but I think the pounds of force of that ship taking off is most likely greater than that metal thing even if we take various hypothetical anti-gravity thrust systems into account.
Facts.
You forget, the later fact is in disney crapwars, not Lucas.
As a military veteran who survived 7 combat deployments, this is so true and close to home. My years of tactics kept me and my team safe.
“It’s over young one, I have the low ground” - Yoda
OBI-WAN: If you'd spend as much time working on your saber skills as you do on your wit, young Padawan, you would rival Master Yoda as a swordsman.
ANAKIN: I thought I already did.
OBI-WAN: Only in your mind, my very young apprentice.
Yoda has a reverse height advantage.
I wouldn't worry about losing an arm, i.e. against a tall opponent like Dooku.
You'd likely find both your legs gone at the knee in a few seconds of dueling Master Yoda.
Now that you mention it with his speed and size yoda could take out limbs in a flash.
Bruh Yoda is so short you would think he would take your legs. And yet... When the storm troopers came to surprise him from behind... FROM BEHIND... He decapitated them both before they could even attempt to betray him.
@@michtibaldo7200 He went for what was most surely to take the threat away. Necks missing does that nicely.
@@willdavis3802 thor learned that the hard way
@@willdavis3802 I also think he wanted them to have a quick death.
Obi Wan be like "Sure bud, i wouldnt test that tho considering I wooped your ass"
Lmao this made me Laugh out loud fr fr
*”Only in your mind, my very young Apprentice.”*
“*Not even in your mind, young skywalker*”
Considering George Lucas was worried he wouldn't be able to pull off Yoda and Duku fighting and make it believable for the audience, I don't find it all that surprising that Anakin would think along the same lines especially before seeing him in a fight.
Anakin thinks Yoda would just be overpowered due to his small size, or kept constantly out of reach of his foe while being inside the reach of his opponents due to his own small reach.
And these are real disadvantages Yoda has to use the force to overcome, force ability that could otherwise be used elsewhere in the duel if he wasn't as small.
Basically, Anakin's is either underestimating Yoda's ability in the force, or the forces ability to account for these weaknesses.
Ok, who wins, prime Dumbledore with elder wand or Anakin pre 66
Dumbledore @@011mrq7
@@011mrq7 I have no idea what Dumbledore could do with the elder wand, but even without it I don't know if Anakin could block a kill curse or if light sabers effect spells. There is a chance he would sense the wand is super dangerous through the force and try to use the force to remove it from Dumbledore, if he was successful I think he would win, otherwise I think Dumbledore has this with or without the elder wand.
@@namenull7399 I agree, the duel would be heavily affected by who knows how much going into the battle, whether someone has the element of surprise, and the distance between them when the fight starts.
@@namenull7399 Anakin would probably win if he could get close enough to Dumbledore.
But I completely agree with everything you said.
Jedi's are powerful, but the wizarding world has a few characters that rival sidious. However, we'd really have to think about how the force would react to magic. Vader can use the force from anywhere to choke people, but wizards can literally teleport.
Any lightsabers will quickly be turned into snakes or turds or dildos.
That's the Dark Side in Anakin talking
I bet before Anakin hit the hot lava he said to himself, damn I shoulda learned all those Yoda flips 😢
to be fair, anyone who didn't understand the jedi or how the force works would also assume the same about Yoda based on his short stature and old age... with that said, anakin was definitely speaking out of ignorance and saying things that make me feel like he was starting to drift towards the dark side at the time.
RIP Carl Weathers. Mando season 4 won't be the same without you
I didn't know... Great loss.
Oh shit. I didn't know either. Just saw him in a commercial a few days ago. Too many have gone recently. 😔
Anakin was unconscious during Yoda's duel with Dooku
Anakin was quickly disarmed in his fight with Dooku, and against Obi-Wan he didn’t even have a leg to stand on.
He gave dooku a hard time more than obi wan did , dooku has beaten Obi wan but during his fight with Anakin even through Dooku cut his arm but he was exhausted after his fight with Anakin
@MaxDam4059
I don’t think you got the joke lol
@@maxdam4059 dumbass lol read it again
@@maxdam4059Then after that held his own one on one against Yoda yeah he would of got beaten eventually by the little green grand Master but the fact that it would take great difficulty on Yodas part speaks greatly of Dookus powers and skills yeah.
“The Chosen One” just means the fool picked to be a kamikaze pilot.
Ah teenagers. Too bad yoda didn't use a fraction of his powers to defeat anakin then in seconds. But good prodigies always overestimate themselves when they don't see the true power of their teachers to understand how much they have to learn to become skilled enough to reach that level.
Practice beats talent every time. Yoda would wipe the floor with him because Anakin is overly confident and arrogant.
@@SkinnyEatWorld95 which is the main reason anakin lost to obi wan. Anakin had talent and greater stats than obi wan but he kept a clear head and used his experience to win.
@@SkinnyEatWorld95as Anakin quickly find out against Dooku.
@@vic5015had Dooku and Anakin took a moment to have a civil conversation: they'd find out how similar they are. Only major differences between the 2 are: Dooku was royalty, Dooku was the talent and the hard work and Dooku always held himself to a high standard. Always in control of his emotions, having way less outbursts than Anakin had.
Yeah but that being said even George Lucas himself said that “Anakin yeah… Vader HELL NO.”
Yoda most likely knew Anakin felt this way about him (I'm sure over centuries many padawans have) and judging Yoda's personality from what we've seen over the years, he was most likely incredibly amused by it. He knew who and what he was but was humble, but Yoda also had a sense of humor. Probably thinking "awww bless your heart, kiddo lol..." 😂
The difference is that Anakin was the only student in the orders history to have a higher midichlorian count then The Grand Master so Yoda being a high potentialed individual himself would of been perfect for teaching Anakin combatively in practice duels based on real life one on one fights and even against multiple high master opponents both with the force and the blade yeah.
Yes, very amusing. Until the ignorant apprentice runs into an actual master and lose an arm - and then it's hilarious.
When the spice kicks in
Only in your mind, my very YOUNG apprentice
Anakin had to be smoking spice and death sticks when he thought of that 🐂 💩
Anakin is hardly alone as a young man suffering from arrogance. It is something I'd say a majority of us deal with to some degree. At least in certain areas of our lives. You only learn to see it when you get older or get humbled. Think back to your teens back talking your parents because you thought you had it all figured out. That kind of thing is pretty universal. The only real question is exactly how arrogant you really are or were. Anakin suffered the brashness and arrogance of youth and he fkd around and found out. Stuff like that is what makes the writing in these shows so good. The depth of these characters is almost unmatched.
@@djluminol ...you put WAY too much philosophically energy into as a response to a joke comment. Take it down a notch; it's not that deep. 😬
@@darthrenegade7915 Not really that deep imo well said actually.
@@AndrewJackson-xg2iz I bet the both of you are fun at parties.
@@darthrenegade7915 bro really thinks I care that much bruh 💀
That was a damn good video right there. Almost emotional. Brought us full circle. By the end of the video, hell I was feeling humbled by Yoda's performance 😢. I really connected with Anakin on this one.😊👌
I'd definitely wanna know why obi wan requested to duel sidious snd I also wanna know what would have went into sidious's mind had obi wan showed up with yoda instead of goin to mustafar. I always see several fan theories online but I think you would understand alot more as I enjoy watching your videos and I admire your teachings master.
Kenobi said it himself, he thought he couldn't bring himself to kill anakin, which is true, as went there to fight Vader
He was also a teenager. They are cocky as hell ha
If Yoda heard Anakin say this, he’d be like “Hold my cane. Knock sense into this boy I will.” 😂
@@darylsdesigns6679 the other jedi masters : master we have a meeting in a minute
yoda: only a few seconds it will take.
This has nothing to do with being teenager. Anakin was the most gifted student and he also has never seen yoda fight. Cant blame anakin for thinking he is the Best
@@krizula1117 yeah plus yoda was moving with a cane and naturally never went all out with the students so anakin was thinking he got the title out of respect for experience instead of being the jedi's strongest fighter. It is reasonable and what most gifted teenagers would think if they don't see the true power of someone.
@@krizula1117Anakin should of tried to lightsaber spar with Yoda both with practice sabers so no accidental cripplings or killings happened and both have real life practice duels after all Yoda was the best of the best with both a blade and the force in the order for combative purposes when need be yeah.
being a martial artist myself. what you learn in class can be applied in real life situations. it's like your study guide for tests you take in school
@Leonardo-cw1dd You can use martial arts to study chemistry and build cars?
Though it is worth noting that if proper contact sparing isn't used in a Martial Arts school then those same lessons can get you killed. Every technique works on a complying opponent after all. And a real one isn't going to comply unless you force them to

@@Matthew-Anthony True words from a man who made a career out of it.
@@kaimagnus5760Is that an ad hominem attack?
Suggestion: Use Grenades, Sonic Screamers, Cluster Rockets and Plasma Charges, Mines, Gas Attacks, activate any energy shields you possess, try to snipe him and use cover, and attack him indirectly. Kill his allies, or place them in jeopardy. And do not over plan the assassination of Yoda.
Yoda's Ataru offense is that of Three Jedi knights attacking at different angles, and his defense is a unique weave and simple if he wanted to, yet he knows what is best for him.
Cause anakin was on that spice and death sticks when he said that sh*t.
Honestly this reminds me of ATLA how Zuko’s fire-bending was sourced through his anger and muscles. Then when Zuko and Aang learn the true understanding of fire-bending, he actually became MUCH stronger than he ever could be, had he continued to only use muscles and anger.
Man, I throughly enjoyed the time between episode 1 and 2, reading all those novels coming out between them. Good times.
That's why Yoda was scared and rejected Anakin Skywalker joining the council members, nor cos he join the sith, but he doesn't want a kid to outshine and steal his seat at the head of the table
To be honest in Episode Three they should of had Anakin battle Dooku by himself with Obi Wan pre occupied fighting Grievous that way each have both fair one on one fights without interuptions or disruptions hopefully but before that have Anakin have real life training sparring matches with lightsaber combat and force powers with Yoda because if Anakin could beat Yoda one on one on even ground in those sparring matches then that could determine Anakin was ready to fight and beat Dooku with moderate difficulty because Yoda was the only Jedi that was able to best Dooku in both force sparring and lightsaber sparring matches even by TPM Era and Dooku And Yoda got even better at it as time went on yeah.
Anakin shouldn't have defeated Dooku the way he did in the movie, Dooku was more Powerful and skilled
@@TheStellarmanCo.Amen it would be better if they showed force sparring matches and lightsaber sparring matches between Anakin And Yoda that way if Anakin could equal Yoda or slightly surpass him then he would be able and ready to best Dooku one on one with moderate difficulty yeah.
ARMY Infantry we called it "muscle memory" 💪🤘
It's interesting that Anakin would have dared to question Yoda's size when he himself was a great podracer even though he was so young. How much of a difference does he think advanced age makes for making someone weak? In any case, Yoda seems to have taken the Force Lightning from Dooku and used it to give himself a special adrenaline boost(or something similar) for the battle.
Yes I was Waiting for this one keep up the great work
Anakin was correct on one point. Theory is sifferent from IRL, street level. Grew up military, dad was my instructor on self defense. 22 as a marine, black belt in 2 disciplines. We're both average height, he goes 160, I'm around 200.
One a trained killer who passed his knowlede down. The other did the same, as did his wife.
Only 2 of her exes ever decided to F around and find out. Poor, dumb SOBs.
Size matters not. One of my favorite lines, right after this one.
Do. Or do not. There is no try.
Been a double amputee 2 years. AKA, right leg, partial left foot. Attend with our goddaughter, lost her right leg to cancer. A new task comes up, Ihesr " I'll try, " that's what I tell her.
Disability is not about your illness or injury. It's about your heart and your mind. Want it enough, you find a way.
I cannot say the teachings of the Jedi would ever be a style i consider worth my time. I rely upon no one honestly so i couldn't do so. The same philosophy that martial artist practice in the offline world is similar to those shared by Jedi. To silence emotions is not strength but weakness to me. To work in tandem with your emotions in harmony is true strength. I couldn't say stature is something making a difference and on that Anakin was very wrong but to silence your inner true self instead of wielding it in harmony with all else is weakness.
Honestly I wish Anakin was awake in episode 2 so we could see his reaction to seeing Yoda dueling dooku and how foolish/stupid he was
Anakin was a teenager at this time, and I would say this was his state was more so out of ignorance than it was arrogance. Please keep in mind master mace window, and master. Obi-Wan did not want Anakin to advance in his force powers, so there were many things he did not understand.
Poor litte Ani, sadly, I Have the Highground 😂
You underestimate my growth spurt!
He got his ass kicked by Obiwan
Thrice
@@SuperBlueGamer9000twice not three times
Plot mantles, just that. Though Anakin said that Obi Wan was as wise as Yoda and as powerful as Windu.
The way Anakin was talking about Yoda. He was just begging to be humbled.
In a serious duel, Yoda would simply take away his saber from his hands like how he did to Ventress.
He was correct as it pertains to FLYING. IF he was right on any of the Masters' fighting styles it had to do mostly with their styles. Would assume Yoda, has trained.. an sparred with. Basically any an everyone couple times. From what we've seen.. Anakin was TOTALLY WRONG about Yoda's abilities seeing as Yoda battled Dooku very well an either woulda caught or ended Dooku had he not escaped via a distraction. After Anakin wasn't proved able to handle him in Ep2.
Let's be honest, many of us were thinking the same thing about how laughably amusing the idea was of Yoda dueling would be until we saw Attack of the Clones in theaters, lol.
"Over it is, the low ground I have. Try it, you should not."
People seem to forget that Anakin was 22 in ROTS. The guy was already arguably top 3 in the order with a saber at 22. How good would he have been when he got to kenobi's age or Windu's?
As someone who took martial arts for a long time and tried hard to find the most effective ones (grew up in the third ward, you want every advantage) I can agree with anakin. In real life practice is not putting into practice. Aikido is useless because no one is riding a horse into battle anymore. Boxing is great to know for form on punching but are you going to use it? No, Muay thai is excellent utilizing everything at your disposal. The only thing I dont agree with him on is speed and power. I've seen plenty of large strong people be put to their knees by people half their size not because they were weaker, because they lacked application and knowledge and put themselves in the exact scenario that wouold lead to their defeat.
Anakin mentioning how he prefers, power and size is more relevant than the video mentions as it seems to be Darth Vader's go to tactic to use his power and size to defeat Jedi.
Yes, anakin favorite style it's to overpower the opponent with sheer strength.
@@pauloa.7609Just like Windu, Plo Koon, And Qui Gon yeah.
The young often underestimate the old . An old dog doesn’t become old for no reason in an environment or mini die young
My only goal wpuld he to draw the fight out. Tax his endurance, and dont let it become a force duel, keep it to blades.
Let's be honest, Anakin in top shape... It's unstoppable.
The real irony is that in a real life sword fight, Anakins point of view is pretty true.
"Give me size and power any day and keep your heart."
Yoda's record 1-1-1 beat ventress, tied Dooku, lost to Sidious. I would say Anakin saw Yoda's flaws more than most. Arrogance was the flaw of many Jedi.
Dooku ran way
Sideous resorted to throwing the senate at yoda after he got disarmed. Which means Sideous lost the "lighsaber duel" even if he won the overall fight (and even that is debatable)
Anakin thinks because of how short Yoda is, he’ll always have the high ground.
"it's over Master Yoda, I have the high ground"
Dude really looked at Yoda and said “Nah, I’d win,” then lost to Count Dooku. 😂
Dooku humbled the shit out of Anakin lol.
To be fair dooku was op too lol.
He was young and brash. He soon learned the truth.
yep i totally can see anakin saying this and i can also see him being blown away when watching the little guy actually fight lol
I don't usually side with Anakin, but i tend tobsee at least a small bit of his reasoning here. The Jedi were not warriors; many of them practiced lightsaber combat merely as a component of Force training, and meditation, like katta, and while this certainly isnt nothing, many never actuality tested that skill in real, consequences-for-failing battle. The Masters, and the Council, even less so. They werent even on the streets, performing Jedi business, but doing things in the Temple. The Sith had been gone for centuries, and few Jedi ever even expected to see another lightsaber-wielding foe, or real battle. I feel many of the "Generals" of the Clone Wars learned this the hard way, as they were now thrust into conflicts well beyond the scope they had trained for. Not to say Anakin was right, but it's not hard to see his side, in ways. Even Yoda had never seen a Sith, or seemingly battled such foes, nor did he seem to dedicate effort to hining his bladework for real combat; he'd rather talk his way out, or orherwise avoid it, and that was sensible, bit could easily color Anakin's perception. Mace Windu and Dooku were both amazing, but a whole element of that was that they elected to devote such effort to lightsaber combat, when most Jedi would have seen no reason to, or even thought it courting violence.
Still, glad Anakin DID learn his lesson, as the likes of Dooku, Windu, Yoda, and Sidious would have spanked him in a "real duel", no matter hiw amazing the "Chosen One" had been led to, ir chosen himself, to believe.
Even in a sparring match Anakin PRE ROTS would of lost to them one on one on fair ground yeah.
Imo, Knightfall Vader is more than capable of defeating Master Yoda. He has the war experience under his belt, and is most certainly capable of lasting longer in this duel. If he faced Yoda with how young he is, he might be able to actually defeat him. If he’s capable of taking someone like Maul at that level. He could stand and possibly defeat Yoda. Obi-Wan’s statement is interesting considering he couldn’t possibly guess what Anakin would do against Yoda. Anakin is doing much the same, however he IS a duelist first before he is a force user. As a duelist, he could possibly have a chance of winning. Count Dooku could possibly take Yoda at his prime, considering he’s more duelist than force user. Anakin’s loss to Count Dooku was due to Dooku using the force to augment his abilities. Anakin is capable of doing the same, whether he’ll do it mid fight is anyone’s guess.
“Imagine what Yoda would’ve done to you”
being an old man in this verse by itself makes you cool
Yoda knew lightsaber theory and was an amazing duelist in real life battles. Anakin's belief about Yoda being a good instructor but not a good real world duelist was true about Master Cin Drallic though. For being the primary lightsaber dueling instructor of the Jedi Temple he sure got his ass handed to him quickly
It’s a concept in real life too
Some teachers are better at teaching than mastering
The old saying is true - Teachers teach because they cannot do@@aceclover758
It's the same concept of military training. I'm an Infantry veteran, and I can easily say that everything you are taught in OSUT/Basic isn't the stuff that you use in real firefight. All the training is for you to get physically stronger and to get your body ready to do remedial actions. Stuff like raising the weapon, firing, clearing a malfunction, reloading, switching weapons, and other stuff like that. Yet does that make the Drills only good in teaching? Nope. Not one bit. They 99% of the time could whup up on ANYONE they are training.
And on top of everything? Yoda is 870ish years old when Anakin says this. By the time of episode one there had been no serious sightings of sith for 1000 years. No, Yoda may not have fought Sith in his younger years, but I can 100% bet he's fought dark/fallen/errant Jedi that weren't Sith but so badly wanted to be one.
He didn't learn his lesson, he was humbled again by obi-won
Yoda is one of the greatest Jedi Masters in history and the strongest Grandmaster in history
i know from experience in Battlefront 2. yoda is no joke
thank you. so many anakin glazers ignore the reason anakin felt held back. bc he refused to learn his lessons. even ROTS anakin had flaws in his development of force power powers and discipline. vader put the time in. thats why he is over all better minus potential
I agree though, I feel like Yoda never really showed us what he can do everything is always heresy and what happened with palpatine. For Yoda to be so strong he sure did a lot of nothing
skywalker was lowkey a naturally attune to the dark side tbh😭
This is total arrogance. He just focused on physical. Anakin was shown on Geonosis by Dooku😀And he saw Yoda too. It's good he was so humbled. And he completely learned his lesson. And became true Chosen One. May the Force be with you too😊
"Give me strength and power any day," coming from a man who’d become a 7 foot tall cybernetic monstrosity, with strength enough to lift a grown man over his head with one arm, and crush a lightsaber hilt in his bare grip, but weaker in the Force than he'd ever be in his life.
The arrogance and overconfidence of Anakin Skywalker or Darth Vader were his worst enemies!
In their first fight with Count Dooku (Darth Tyrannus) on Geonosis, Obi-Wan Kenobi warned his apprentice not to fight alone, but Anakin didn't listen, so he lost his right arm to Dooku, and had to be saved by Master Yoda!
After Anakin turned to the Dark Side, and became Darth Vader, Obi-Wan begged Yoda to let him fight Emperor Shiv Palpatine (Darth Sidious) instead of his beloved padawan, but Yoda told him that the emperor was too strong, so Obi-Wan roasted Vader on Mustafar, and how did Obi-Wan manage to beat a more powerful opponent?
Obi-Wan warned Anakin not to jump onto him, but like in their first fight against Dooku, Vader didn't listen to his master's warnings, so he suffered a defeat on Mustafar which was far worse than what he suffered on Geonosis!
Obi wan said it best when he said “only in your own mind”
Imagine saying that someone who's 900 yrs old lacks experience in their respective fields 😂
I just realized that Anakin technically defeated the three force users we see him lose lightsaber duels to in the films, making his record against each of them 1-1. That’s a BIG technicality though. Lol.
Someone pls make a fanmade animation of yoda vs anakin in his prime
Anakin made mistakes, which his son never did. That’s why Luke became not only the strongest Force User, but also the best duelist there ever was. Anyways i do think that in ROTS , Anakin could go toe to toe with Yoda and maybe win. If you’ve ever played the ROTS videogame, then you know that Anakin fought Mace Windu and Mace lost. I would say that this would make Anakin the same league as Palpatine and Yoda. Not to underestimate Obi-Wan, but have not he had Plot armor and have not Anakin be so arrogant, then he would get killed and Anakin would really become more powerful than Sidious or Yoda.
Yoda still has a major flaw, he uses form 3 which requires the user to use the force to amplify their agility to best utilize the form at all, which is very draining and taxing on an older user of the form, so all a duelist has to do is outlast Yoda stamina wise and be younger than him and you could defeat Yoda, may take awhile to do so but it can be done
Yeah but no one is lasting long against yoda
@@cantdestroyher7245 Palpatine did and caused Yoda to give up, retreat to dagobah, train Luke, and die
@inuyasha0413 yeah but palpatine also spent the whole fight trying to put distance between him and yoda. He used the senate chamber to his advantage so he wouldn't have to fight in lightsaber combat
Wasn't it form 4?
@@cantdestroyher7245 Are you sure about that? Many from the age of the old republic could run him through. Many force users of that age saw a lot of combat.
Summary: Why did Anakin think he could beat Yoda?
Answer: Because he was an insolent, naive little piece of sh*t.
Little piece of sh*t? I think thats too far lil man
Either Anakin was a moron, or the jedi were shit teachers.
He didn't even knew how much he doesn't know - and they sent him to war regardless.
A sparring session with sticks and a real master would've enlightened him in less than an hour.
So... Yoda's inherent weakness is his lack of reach and physical strength. To compensate for this he uses Ataru in a way that almost mirrors the aggression of Juyo, allowing him to get in on opponents and use the momentum of his attacks and flourishes to put extra power behind his strikes when needed. But there is a weakness to doing this in and of itself, and that's the fact that such a heavy, all-out use of Ataru is taxing on one's stamina. This basically means that Yoda needs to win quickly, otherwise he will eventually tire himself out, even with using the force to bolster his stamina. Thing is, in order to take advantage of that you'd have to last long enough against a flying green buzz saw.
Which means that of any of the Jedi, Obi-Wan is the most likely to beat Yoda thanks to his mastery of the defensive form of Soresu.
Even worse for yoda because we are pretty sure that he uses the force as steroids to make him able to move that quickly when he needs a cane to just walk when he isn't in these hoover chairs floating around. Once he gets tired, it's all over.
Only in your mind Anakin
And then of course this same arrogance led to him losing the duel against Obi-Wan, costing him his other arm and both legs. He relapsed.
Bruh yoda is a literal green spinning bayblade
(I know I'm late) let's not forget that Anakin himself decided to and became a blade master able to best Dooku in just three years 😭👌
Fantastic.
To be completely honest if a martial artist is to look at Anakins logic, it is infallible. Size matters loads, and a street fight is absolutely different than a classroom. Now excepted wisdom says that mma is the best street fighting style, blending bjj, Muy Thai, boxing and wrestling. However this discounts the fact that street fights aren’t fair. Boxing is the best street fighting style. I’m not sure the same applies in the Star Wars universe though.
The stupidity of youth. His youthful arrogance was his main flaw.
Let's not forget about that offhand comment he made DURING Attack of The Clones where he considered Obi-Wan to be "As wise as Master Yoda and as powerful as Master Windu", implying Yoda would not easily clap Mace in seconds lmao
Basically: Dad strength
I usually take the personal thoughts of SW characters seriously but I don't take anything of what Padawan Anakin thought. That guy had an ego and an obsessiveness bigger than the Eiffel tower, no logical thinking or gratitude.
truly
It's the old story of a young, tall and muscular street thug who thinks his size and muscles are able to intimidate people into surendering a fight without having to lift a finger and thus never actually having been involved in a real fight before, thinking that they can steal a purse from short, scrawny, old lady without resistance, only to get his but handed to him by said short, scrawny, old lady because she had a black belt in karate and wasn't afraid to use the skills that came with it.
Tldr - anny had the high ground😂
This is yoda's fault again guys & girls 😂🤷🏾♂️.
Sometimes as a leader you need to show force & show the people you work with that you mean business from time to time to keep everyone on their toes.
To much complacency from Yoda here , this is why view points like Anakin's were said.
I think Yoda will just use his telekinesis technique and swing Anakin left and right till he vomit his arrogance 😅
What people really want to know: Who would win Anakin Skywalker or Sand? 😂
Day 387 of asking for a part 3 of what if anakin was trained by qui gon
