"And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were. You are more than half machine. You are like a painter gone blind; a composer gone deaf. You can remember where the power was, but the power you can touch is only a memory, and so, with all your world-destroying fury, it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow."

"Yes! Kill him! He was weak, broken! Kill him, and you can take your rightful place at my side."

"The great Darth Vader was a sick man in an iron mask!"

Thanks for clearing this up and good luck with the future videos!

Awesome work sir!! I've been saying that Wave doesn't cite his sources specifically so that people cannot call out his BS! He is counting on the fact that people will not be able to find his "source material" and see just how much he misrepresents it, changes it, or just flat out gets it wrong. Bravo, sir, bravo.;

Interesting video. I've been trying to learn more about star wars so that I have stuff to talk about with my big brother lol. This should help alot . He's going to be so impressed next time I see him!

This quote is also misunderstood too. Lucas is referring to an Anakin that would eventually surpass the emperor. In that same vanity Fair article, he said, that Anakin WOULD have been twice as strong as the emperor. He wasn't already.

As we all know, Anakin never applied much of his latent force ability in the clone wars, he was a battlefield tactician, and a front line warrior, Akin to the Jedi guardians we saw in swtor. He used the force to enhance his physical attributes.

After the suit, he really didn't have a choice but to apply himself in using the force, it basically extended his reach and enhanced his reflexes to superhuman, despite his slowed body.

The guidebooks aren't technically wrong with all of this in mind. Vader IS technically stronger than the Anakin that WE knew, just not prime Anakin, that's twice as strong as Sidious. Starwars in canon and legends makes it clear, that raw talent alone, doesn't make you more powerful than another force user. You have to be more open to the force, for more power to pass through you. If we went by raw power alone, then we get idiotic ideas, like Palpatine before becoming a sith, could somehow beat a prime Mace Windu.

This is why somebody like Vader would meditate in canon and legends, when it would be a rarity for Anakin, who would use moving meditation to decompress. He was far more open to the force than someone like ROTS Anakin.

It APPEARS this INANE notion was UTTERLY DESTROYED with FACTS and LOGIC. WELL done.

[masonhall]

Excellent. Time to put SW and the Forcecast in their place.

If you have any lengthy disagreements to voice, make sure to join the official Suspect Insight Forum! It is a much better platform for discussion and debate than the YouTube comment section.

I really think you should focus more on videos that debunk the WOTC Malak quote, which messes up the scaling of exar kun being above Revan reborn.


-Totally not AP

[nevinsullivan]

Yo @Suspect Insight.


Now, is this on a canon basis? or a legends basis? Or is this a mix of both? Asking for clarification as there is a plethora of accolades and feats as early as (LOTS) that dictate vader surpasses his Non suited self.

[justsomerandomguyonline]

This guy just repeats the same shit in his videos. Good rebuttal

[beindawn-]

Great Video guys! I’d suggest an video that focuses on my favorite character Vader and how strong he is!

[Emperordmb]

Very fitting that I got the 420th view on this video.

[nelapurrz]

Do you have anything from Canon (other than Lucas) that backs this up?

[Fredward]

Lucas is referring to his potential to become more powerful than the emperor. All the sources you stated were referring to how powerful he would’ve become had he not lost his limbs and most of his skin tissue. Though Vader has to start at square 1. He still had the knowledge to build himself back up. Yes he was a cyborg but what’s interesting about him is that he had to work with what he had and he definitely made the most of it. He still become more powerful than his ROTS version. Too many people misinterpret those sources.

[cinematastic]

This is why I hate Stupendous Wave. He constantly spreads misinformation and deceit. It’s absolutely disgusting.
