Why Darth Vader VS Yoda Isn't Even Close!

Darth Vader. Yoda. Two of the greatest Force Users in all of Star Wars, and at their best, each of them can make a pretty strong case for the most powerful being in all the galaxy.

And today, well we’re gonna put that to the test! Using each of these characters in their primes, and including Expanded Universe lore, not just the new Disney Canon, we’re gonna see which one comes out on top - and really, is the fight between them even close? Well lets get to it!

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!

[DefileOdds]

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

[SpammytheHedgehog]

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

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.

[SpammytheHedgehog]

Yoda has many centuries of experience.

[ultimatemagneto]

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.

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.

[BlazerK]

Yoda: “I will, if Obi Wan cannot finish you.”

Darth Vader: “If my master can’t destroy you, I will.”

[GeneralShermansMarch]

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

[DyingLightBattles]

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

[disruptor]

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!

[chevin]

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

[comixofmorrow]

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

[bobitzathegodofcomedy]

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

[les]

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!

[Tkyoking]

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

[themightofgeburah]

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.

[SoN_oF_oDiN]

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

[Doug]

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.

[HalalGamer]

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