    So who would win a fight? A mind stable Anakin or Master Yoda? Many say Anakin but I REALLY don't see how a Jedi MASTER that has trained for over 800 years could lose to a Jedi Knight who has been training for less than 30 years.

    Ani at the end of ROTS was extremely powerful, but Yoda would've wiped the floor with him. Palpatine was definitely more powerful than Anakin was at the time and Yoda stood his ground against him. 0% chance Anakin wins.

    Anakin wins.... Yoda was unable to defeat the two Sith Lords (Sids and Dooku) which Anakin was able to defeat and kill.Yoda's victories were against generic clone troopers. Also Anakin has a higher midiclorian count :p

    Yoda wasn't 'unable' to defeat Dooku, he simply didn't have the time when Dooku chickened out and ran with a distraction. Had Dooku been stuck there he would've lost, and Anakin was easily taken down by Dooku in that same fight, so let's not forget that.

    Sidious doesn't count as a win for Ani either. Vader simply lifted him off his feet while he was distracted and threw him down a hole (killing himself in the process). They never fought (while Yoda and Sidious did, and Yoda got the upper hand repeatedly). That's another L for Anakin.

    Dooku had already fought 3 Jedi, defeating 2 and fighting Yoda to a stalemate. Dooku left because for all he knew there could've been another 6 Jedi on their way to kill him. Remember, the Jedi aren't known to fight the Sith 1vs1, It was more important for Dooku to get the DS plans to Sidious. Dooku could've hit Yoda with lightning while Yoda was preventing the rubble from falling on top of Anakin and Obi-Wan. Also Yoda chose to stop fighting Dooku at this stage. Yoda was no where near strong enough to defeat his old apprentice. Where as Anakin, defeats Dooku comfortably in their return fight.

    If you say Dooku chickened out and ran, then you must say the same for Yoda when he turned yellow and went into hiding for the rest of his life when he was defeated by Sidious. At no stage did Yoda have the upper hand. Sidious found great joy in playing with yoda. Sidious made the mistake in thinking Yoda was a noble warrior who wouldn't run away from the ultimate fight between good and evil.

    Anakin kills the Sith lords who Yoda failed to even defeat. Anakin wins easily

    I strongly disagree; I think it was pretty clear Yoda would've overwhelmed Dooku eventually, and that's why Dooku fled. Anakin only defeats Dooku because he starts tapping into the dark side a little bit, and he has more time to do it since Dooku isn't fleeing anywhere.

    And I'm sorry but that account of the Sidious duel just isn't accurate. Yoda quite clearly had the upper hand at times, and Sidious was completely on the defensive in those moments. He looked pretty worried for a lot of that fight too. It's only when he distances himself out from Yoda and attacks from a farther range that Sidious turned the tide a bit. Neither of them lost; that one was definitely a stalemate, and Yoda fled because he knew he wasn't going to be able to beat him before reinforcements showed up (and he knew he had to survive for the future as well).

    As I said earlier, Dooku had already fought 3 Jedi all by himself and survived. Who knows how many more Jedi were on their way? Remember, Geonosis had pretty much every Jedi their fighting at the time. And the Jedi have proven time and time again that they need 2, 3, and 4 Jedi to fight 1 Sith Lord. We'll never know who would've won the fight between Yoda and Dooku 1vs1 ,because it was a 3vs 1 fight to begin with and Yoda still couldn't defeat him.

    The Sidious vs Yoda duel was over very early. If you go back and watch the fight, Sidious hits Yoda with lightning and Yoda lies there face down on the ground motionless. Sidious even did the noble thing by allowing his opponent to get back up. All Sidious had to do was finish Yoda off then and there. But he didn't, instead Sidious played with the much inferior Yoda the same way a cat does with a rat. In some cases the rat gets away.

    Anyways, Yoda fails to defeat the 2 Sith Lords who Anakin kills. There is no proof in the movies to even suggest Yoda could kill Anakin.

    If Anakin hadn't have been diced in half and had completed his training (light or Dark) he would defeat Yoda, though Yoda in his prime vs Full potential Anakin would be one hell of a fight

    this is frustrating as hell to read considering how wrong it is

    not even going to justify a full out response to it at this point. not worth the time

    They would be pretty even in lightsaber combat but Yoda gets the edge in force ability.

    That said if Anakin/Vader didn't get maimed on Mustafar he'd have been able to beat anyone after training with Sidious for some time.

    I understand why you can't respond.

    I respectfully disagree with some of your opinions. However, your opinions (opposite or not) are always welcome to me.

    I'm happy to agree to disagree and hopefully see you in another thread where our opinions may be more compatible.

    What is ''stabile mind'' Anakin ? Anakin by RotS was nowhere near powerful as Yoda, if he was that powerful, he would easily one-shot a MagnaGuard already.



    People already explaining why Anakin defeated Dooku (saber form advantage), but they are not listening and still going with that ''because he is the chosen one !!!111! '' thing....

    I may be more on your side, Cyreides, but you have to concede that PHIERY has a point with this:
    I think that Sidious and Yoda were equal in strength, and it is even suggested in the movie that Yoda was beginning to overpower Sidious in their Force lightning lock, but in the instance mentioned above it is clear that Sidious could have killed Yoda when he was laying on the ground.

    As for Yoda vs Anakin, I'm not really sure. Too many factors at play. It's like boxing where even the best heavyweights in history got defeated when certain circumstances arose.

    I'm sorry, but like I said, I don't think that 20 years of training could beat 800 :)

    That's a tough one to debate. They were both extremely powerful in the Force, with Yoda using his powers as more of a blunt instrument and Anakin able to use his powers more quickly. Yoda (when going up against an opponent that is equal/greater than him with the Force) tends to have to be able to focus, which is when he resorts to his version of Ataru lightsaber combat. Anakin did have the highest midichlorian count ever recorded, but he never trained his powers to what they could have been. As far as I recall, Anakin's greatest powers were his Force push, Force scream, and Force Augmentation. But Anakin was a Guardian anyway, and so he would resort to his lightsaber in this fight. Both of them would imo. Having said that, we also have to take into account of when in their lifespans they would meet. For example, are they both in their primes (which incidentally is pretty much the same time frame), and if we are talking about Anakin Skywalker and not Darth Vader.

    I still think they should have made Anakin stronger, He is the Chosen one, has the highest Midichlorian count, Yet we never see him do anything to extra-ordinary with the Force.

    That's because Anakin was extremely arrogant about his Force abilities. He pretty much just focused on his blade work. However, it is worthy to note that he was quite skilled with Force push, Force scream (he brought down some kind of dome in the EU with just one scream), Force augmentation, and later on telekinesis. Midichlorian count isn't everything
