    The whole point of the Chosen One is to restore balance to the Force, not to settle a duel between two powerful individuals.

    By victorious I was obviously referring to one beating the other, which none of them did.

    And Yoda didn't train the Chosen One.

    The Chosen One is created to balance the Force which could mean stopping the rising powerful Dark Lord or the growing over abundant Jedi. Sidious and Yoda just happens to be at the top of their respective order.

    If you are obviously referring to beating each other then Yoda obviously lost. If Sidious fell hitting his body hard to the floor and then troops came to stop Yoda then Sidious lost.

    But of course that didn’t happen. It was Yoda who fell hard to the floor. Sidious is victorious.

    And Yoda trained the son of The Chosen One.

    Yoda didn’t hide for decades just so he can train any other Force Users. He trained a Skywalker.

    The Jedi aren't over abundant to begin with, nor do they contribute to imbalance.

    Neither beat each other. Yoda simply left.

    Yes, a Skywalker who is not the Chosen One. The Chosen One is Anakin.

    Yeah he left because he fell bashing his body to steel pod and steel floor. He didn’t leave when both were throwing giants pods at each other. He left when he fell.

    Take Yoda bias aside and watch just 2 regular guys fighting on the roof where both were evenly match until one of them fell hard on steel staircase then to the ground. Then that guy who fell ended up escaping. You honestly can say…yup it was a tie!! Lol cmon now. You can say they are equally powerful but one obviously lost and one was obviously victorious.

    And yes The Force created Anakin but since Palpatine corrupted that…then his offsprings are the next best thing.

    Not Yoda..Not Obi-Wan…not any other Force Users…it’s Luke and Leia.

    Luke’s not the chosen one, but he has over 20,000 midi-chlorians per cell. The reason Luke and Leia were considered the “last hope” of the Jedi is because they were the only candidates stronger than the Emperor.

    I think we’re going to find out the Sith have powers that put Yoda in a new win situation. The only way to actually defeat Sidious required Force ghosts and other special circumstances.

    The clone wars added even more importance to Yoda seeing his empty robe float to the ground.

    What did the clone wars added??

    Anyways, you ever notice the 2 people that actually killed the Dark Lord ended up dying themselves? To actually kill Sidious leads to sacrificing yourself as well.
