"when deal with 900 years of galactic bs, a few years to chill- you will want too"
At that point in his life he's simply broken, everything he fought and protected was destroyed. In addition I think yoda knew anakin was married, and his vulnerabilities as well but did nothing about it. Think about, the greatest jedi councilor not counseling, he let the events of the prequel and did nothing about it. In a way he made the empire possible, his inaction, possibly ironically out of fear.
@@eddapultstab2078 he saw all those visions of everyone’s death but never mentioned it. Like...?
@@DaMasta981 Yoda of all beings should know all emotions can't suppressed all the time, after 700 years he would know of many examples of failed and fallen jedi but in the prequels he is portrayed as a know it all who doesn't share his knowledge and experience. The only profound moment he had with anakin is his speech on fear-anger-hate-suffering. The key point im making is the council clearly knew about the challenges that anakin presents, but instead of planning or preparing contingencies and steps to make him a better jedi and in extension person, they stuck to their guns and lead a lezefair policy and not only allowed him to develop bad habits and troubling situations and don't even council him on matters. I mean if I was a leader of an order and have a potential child of prophecy at my doorstep I would atleast monitor him and when certain events, like marrying padme, I would atleast have a discussion and tread carefully about it. Anakin can have a secret wedding but they cannot keep their relationship secret from an order of energy sword wielding space wizards forever.
@@DaMasta981 Yoda Knew If He did tell he wouldn't be able to change it, so he kept it to himself. It's like what Qui Gon Said.
@@shevthegreb757 and his vision wasn’t what actually happened there never clear
The Rebellion would have gone broke attempting to satisfy the ketamine cravings.
All the money in the galaxy couldn’t buy enough ketamine for yoda
Mon Mothma: Where are all our X Wings?
Yoda: *shrugs while carrying a large case*
That's the real reason yoda wanted to go to the jedi temple, so he could raid the medicine cabinet. However he ran out by the time ESB hence why he was acting crazy. He had ketamine withdrawal XD
Little known fact during the scene Yoda dies. In the original descriptions of the scene explaining everything, they use these scripts so the actors can capture the mood and tone of the character during the scene. Anyway, before Yoda had spoken to Luke, he had taken so much ketamine, that by the time had finished speaking with Luke, his body didn't know how to react to all this ketamine that his body chose to cease to exist, which why Yoda disappears. He never died, he just achieved a new high.
@@theprodigalknight7156 Someone else finally realizes Yoda had a Ketamine addiction, and that's what all the "meditation" was really about.
Because if he showed up Yaddle would have him pay child support for Grogu. Do you see how long it takes for those things to grow up? Yoda is no longer getting his jedi income, where would you expect him to get all the money?
Put out the bounty, he did
Oh now it makes sense! Yoda did not just go into exile because he failed to stop Palpatine. Yoda failed to pay child support as well!
LOL
Go into exile, I must. Child support i can't pay it.
He doesn't want to give up the insurance money from his crashed 2001 Honda civic to Yaddle for child support
Lemme ask you this..
When you’re retired, do you give two sh*ts about your previous job? That’s basically Yoda on dagobah
The Master of The High Ground.
GENERAL KENOBI.
Hello there
I HATE YOU!
You are a bold one
To be fair, yoda was the grand master. All of the younglings were his children, and all of the Jedi knights and masters were like his younger siblings. The amount of loss and pain yoda must have suffered is unreal, and obviously that could lead to him going to the dark side in his path for revenge. Maybe that’s why he went into exile and waited for a new hope.
Fair point. If he kept remembering every single one of the Jedi whom he not only knew, but most definitelly helped *raise and train since their childhood,* I can see him eventually succumbing to the Dark Side along the way.
Maybe that's why he chose an exile, to prevent himself from ever going down that path. _(frankly, a Sith-turned Yoda would be a terrifying prospect. _*_for everyone)_*

What's this long game that Yoda and obi were playing I don't get it they barely taught anybody anything and the long game barely played out until almost everybody was dead it seems like the force really doesn't care
@@timwells637 There wasn’t much else for either to do, except to wait out the purge and for Luke and Leia to grow up and a Rebellion to form. It also gave Yoda time to contemplate the Order’s failings to insure that their mistakes wouldn’t be passed to the next Jedi.
Yoda: "Because too easy, it would be.
And an epic story, you would never have."
The most underrated comment.
Yoda felt the swag of Palpatine and didn’t wanna run it back
I think it was because he needed to stay on dagobah to train Luke. It didn’t matter if he helped a rebel cell destroy an imperial ship cause if he died Luke’s training would be compromised. Now Obi Wan could have trained him but what if he died too? It was a smart move on both masters part to go into exile and wait until the time was right to come out of the shadows to train the galaxy’s last hope against the Emperor.
You could’ve trained him
He needed to stay because the planet was extremely strong with the dark side and it drowned his light side presence, keeping sidious from being able to find him, if he had joined the rebellion then he would have served as a tracker for sidious leading him directly to rebels.
@@user-ep8ns6hg4q not only that but Yoda was literally one step away from death and the only thing keeping him alive was his will to train Luke and then he finally got peace when he completed his training
It’s a fucking movie that’s why
Schedule of Two Sith: Run an empire, fight Rebels, still have time to find new recruits
Schedule of Two Jedi: Must retreat to a cave and swamp so they don't accidentally die
Now which side of the Force is _really_ stronger?
Edit: Also just remember -- green lasers mean "Go in Peace." Red lasers mean "Stop and Die." TIE fighters shoot green lasers and X-Wings shoot red lasers. It's clear which side is evil.
One of the important messages he got from that arc of Clone Wars was "don't worry, there's another Skywalker".
to who he was referring to?
@@usernotfound342 Yoda.
@@MCsCreations to which Skywalker was Yoda referring to?
@@usernotfound342 No, it was the force who said there was another Skywalker. And Yoda didn't know to whom it was referring to.
But the answer would probably be Luke and/or Leia. And they weren't even born yet.
@@MCsCreations Actually, I was talking about when Yoda said to Obi Wan "there is another..". Obi Wan and Yoda knew that Leia was a Skywalker too, but they didn't train her because she kinda "had" a family, and some monks telling her that her true father was killed by Darth Vader would not motivate her to be trained to defeat Vader. That's why, according to my theory, when Yoda said "No. There is another..", he was referring to Anakin, because he knew that he was going to be turned to the light side eventually (remember, the movie is called "The Return of the Jedi"). But how did he know? Well, Yoda was living on Dagobah for a while, and he had already met and talked to Qui Gon there during TCW era. So Qui Gon must've told Yoda that Anakin is indeed the chosen one and that he will bring balance to the force no matter what. That's why you see them happy together as force ghosts in the end of ROTJ movie.
Yoda: Strong I am with the force but not that strong.
Obi Wan: We'll take him together. Yoda: NO! TAKING HIM NOW I AM!
He realized sidious had played the long game, and had to do so himself, in the novel he knows even if he killed sidious there it wouldnt stop what je had already done
"And Palpatine, probably, no longer is"
Disney: about that...
Another thing mentioned is that after order 66 (and even before) the Jedi were hated by the public. That sentiment may have also bled in with some rebels as well. During the Clone Wars, Anakin was the exception. He was a considered to be a compassionate war hero the public and the media. That's the only reason that rebel pilot mentioned him to Luke right before the Battle of Yavin IV.
A, it easy to fear what u dont understand, and Jedi and thers Stoicism was hadr to undestand to public, B Sith was thouth to be extinct, and for ordinaly cizitien there was no difference between those two anyway.
CPolice force is unpopular nowadays too, and Jedi work a lot like police force of senate and republic. and, well since peaple are easily manipulated by media it was easy. its not like they had dedicated PR department, and there was only about 10 000 jedis in galaxy anyway, most cizitiens newer saw one in whole live. Sith were preparing for this moment for 1000 years, to bind jedi to republic, undercut them by constant series of incidents,... weakend them and kill them both at once,..
It is kinda explained in episode III why yoda did what he did.
Lets remenber Yoda fought in the clone wars, but all he did was serve the schemes of Siduoius. The sith plan totally outplayed the Jedi and they ended up being just pawns in the SIth grand plan. the Jedi and Yoda realized he need to actually think a way out, not by fighting but by finding where and when to fight. After comfronting Sidious, Yoda rialized if he cant outright defeat him right then and there, in the senate building, he would need a new strategy, and he had no clue whatsoever how he would pull it out. He went to exile to meditate and try to understand the will of the force and how, when and with who, the balance could be achived again. Why the force allowed the Jedi to be blind by the sith and how to fight without being just pawns again.
When you write "first" but you aren't first:
Into exile, I must go. Failed, I have.
you will train another and he will get first
@@GenerationTech This is getting out of hand. Now there are two first comments!
@@GenerationTech seems so lol
Commit seppuku you must, dishonored the jedi you have. Damn, hits hard this ketamine does, like i could take on the whole world, i feel. Any water do you have, parched my throat is.
Do what if the New Republic took Lea seriously and fought the First Order early
we would have got better movies
Short version? Hosnian system is never destroyed, starkiller base is likely never completed, along with the supremacy. Palpatine never is able to return. And the sequel trilogy never happens, as a certain scavanger never leaves the desert planet they were on.
Destroyer_V0 hallelujah
@@Destroyer_V0 *Sequel
Yoda already failed, the jedi were lost. Survivors who didn’t heed ObiWans warnings were slaughtered in groups by the 501st. Palpatine had a galaxy worth of firepower and the support of most of the galaxy’s inhabitants. Unless he saw an opportunity to go toe-to-toe with Palpatine again, it would be Yoda versus the limitless armies at Palpatine’s disposal
And even if Yoda could have gone in a 1v1 with Sidious he would have lost, he had to run from a Sidious that was already exhausted from fighting Windu
First Sidious wasn't tired from the battle with Mace as that was hours before. Second the battle was going in Yoda's favor, the only reason Sidious " won" was because of luck. Had they fought in a even battlefield, Yoda would have won.
Thirdly Yoda would have for sure made an absolutely HUGE difference if he joined the rebellion. Having such a skilled and venerable jedi would give them a serious morale boost
@@Luca-ok6sw why would he have to go 1v1? He has Obi Wan, a skilled jedi master, who could help him.
@@alexturlais8558 and Sidious has Darth Vader, which now is even more hateful, and have no reason to old back on Obi-Wan, remember that Darth Vader was trying to bring Obi-Wan to the dark side on Mustafar, and there was still a little Anakin part that wanted to let Obi-Wan go
Midichlorian counts and “power levels” aside, Yoda wouldn’t have had the stamina to hold up long in a 1 v 1 fight against Sidious, especially after the Jedi Order had fallen. He was physically too old, and with the Balance tossed to Darkside, Palpatine had the will of the Force behind him.
The old Jedi way needed to be reevaluated for a new generation, because it had failed. That was the only useful thing for Yoda to do at that point. Meditate and wait for the Chosen One’s son or daughter to show up, then train them.
I always wondered how the Jedi temple had holograms of the chancellors office where Anakin was turned, why not just use that to spy on him 24/7?
Would a fighter like Dooku with less of a link with the Dark side and a strong reliance on dueling technique, be more of a challenge for Mace Windu?
i'd say Dooku is kinda rare case as sith because he is in control of his emotions so i kinda think Mace wouldnt gain advantage through vaapad, so winner would be decided purely out of which one is better duelist
I would say so. I think Dooku would beat him, since IMO he's the best duelist in the galaxy during the clone wars. I think Mace is slightly stronger in the force, but not by very much. And yes, since Dooku rarely actually uses the dark side, or his emotions when fighting, Vaapad would be ineffective
@@luitjenapol2815 Dooku wasn't the best duelist, obviously that was Anakin by that point. Since ya know, Anakin overpowered and outfenced him in the end.
That being said, if Anakin could manage to keep a cool head, he'd curbstomp Mace. But because it's Anakin who doesn't know how to control his emotions, Mace could easily beat him just as Obi-Wan did.
@@OtterTreySSArmy No, Dooku was still the best duelist. Dooku was supposed to lose that fight. And even if he wasn't, it wouldn't change too much. Dooku's fighting style just doesn't clash well against Anakin's. Dooku uses form 2 Makashi, which relies on gaining momentum and using combinations to beat opponents. We can see this form be an advantage against Obi-Wan and his defensive style, who honestly is the 2nd best duelist at that point IMO, just above Anakin. But against Anakin, who uses form 5 Djem so, he has a hard time. Anakin's form relies on strength and just overpowering his opponent, which makes it hard for Dooku to gain momentum and use combinational attacks. Adding Anakin tapping into the darkside really doesn't help either. So that's why Anakin beat Dooku, but then again Dooku was supposed to lose that fight, so everything i said is sort of irrelevant.
But if that wasn't enough to convince you it was their dueling style that matters, then why didn't Anakin destroy Obi Wan?
technique, not technic. It's not LEGO.
Well if we look at his appearance and character in episode 5 he looks and sounds like he gone completely insane.
He was doing that on purpose so Luke thought he was just a crazy old man and would eventually leave the planet. Yoda didn't want to to train Luke.
@@thezoinksguy exactly, its that thing where you can judge a person by how he treats the waiter and the person hes eating with
That’s what we call addiction
@@jarjarbinks2105 more ketamine I need
@@thezoinksguy Actually he just wanted to see if Luke was patient and he only came to the decision that he didn't want to train Luke when he saw that Luke was impatient
In my eyes, qui gon knew what his death would mean to Anakin's story. And how his death would change the course of history, for the better? Idk, but qui gon knew it was the will of the force for him to die that day, that's what made him so special. He knows that there is only the force.
Yoda knew better than to fight someone who had the high ground
Meanwhile on Mustafar: "You underestimate my power!!"
If the Sith can played the long game, so can the Jedi.
Last time I was this early Exar Kun was figuring out how to light 2 sides of his room with one flashlight
What do you think palpatine/sideous’ reaction would be if he’d discovered that the Jedi were achieving immortality as force ghosts?
Maybe he knew, but didn't tell anybody!
I always assumed that Yoda believed in a deeper code of the jedi; that falling and losing his robe during battle with a Sith was cause for exile.
isn't it funny how Darth Maul had the high-ground and Obi Wan jumped over him and killed him... just like Anikan tried to do.. but when Obi Wan had the high ground he was like "bruh, don't do it.. there is no way you can jump over me and kill me" :p
Maul was over confident and was showboating & ignoring his opponent. By all accounts, maul should’ve won, but was distracted and obi wan took advantage. That’s why maul lost.
Obi had the high ground, and was not only focused, but was baiting Anakin by telling him something to the effect of “you ain’t all that, try it and see what happens”. Anakin had a massive ego & thought he was better than he really was. He took the bait and Obi got him. It was pure strategy on obi’s part.
the don't try it was a trap on Obi wan side, because he realised that he could not overpower Anakin
Yoda is a deadbeat dad. The "reason' he is hiding is to avoid child support payments for Grogu since he is now unemployed.
He went insane. I think yoda went insane watching his entire reality of ~900 years crumble and completely change within the span of a few years was enough to drive the grandmaster mad.
Exile was the only way he could keep some semblance of his reality
He did go insane but being on a world that has godly levels of (dark side)insanity makes you sane well as sane as you can be when your insane Plus Yodas ketamine stash was on dagobah that's why he stayed
Yoda was responsible for the Jedi Order. Staying hidden while the remnants of his order were hunted down and killed was his greatest failure. In the end they painted Yoda being for the greater good over what were his actual responsibilities. The truth is...under Yoda's leadership as the grandmaster, the Jedi Order went from 10,000 Jedi to a handful.
I guess Yoda was thinking "OLOY" (Once.Live.Only.You).
He didn’t want to pay child support for Grogu. Low income he had.
Spent all his money on his Ketamine addiction he did.
Yoda didnt lose due to power he lost due to the terrain had Yoda not fallen down several stories they would have had to keep going
According to the novel he knew he couldn't beat him one on one. The Jedi had stagnated but the Sith had evolved and he realized it.
@@susanwojcickisnicetwin mace would have killed him if he anakin didn’t skitz out and ruin the galaxy
@@Bornst3ll3r a. I wasn't talking about mace, b. Palpatine had to play it that way to give Anakin the motivation to save him. He beats Mace outright and Anakin would still want him arrested. He couldn't slay 4 of the best swordsman in the history of the Jedi and then have Anakin walk in later asking what happened. He knew Anakin would go to his office regardless of what orders the council gave. His fight with Mace was just a stalling tactic.
@@susanwojcickisnicetwin In legends, it's debatable if he was stalling. In current canon, it is confirmed Palpatine was legitimately trying to win but was ultimately outdueled and disfigured by Mace. Without Anakin there to bail him out, Mace destroys the Sith and prevents the rise of the Empire.
@@thewarner2139 sorry, I was just going by the novelization of Episode III. If that isn't canon, I don't know what is.
Yoda was in hiding because George Lukas needed a wise and powerful Jedi master to teach Luke Skywalker how to Jedi, while there are actually no Jedi walking around any more.
I always just figured he had been left without a ship, and no way to call for pickup, especially after bail, the only person beside kenobi, to know where he was, was killed.
Every time i think about this i think to family guy when hes says to luke "your not powerful enough to fight vader " then luke responds " well why don't you fight him" yoda finally says " alright your ready to fight vader".
Qui gon is the answer. In TCW, Yoda sees order 66 but Qui gon tells him to go on the path of a force ghost to prevail against the sith.
The Jedi would have to win the spiritual battle to win the physical one
Green little Jackass probably could have toppled the empire and then raise Luke and Leia without doing that Jedi fade.
"No preserve better trilogy, I must."
Compromise trilogy, I must not. Okay, this trilogy is.
Looks up at Palpatine laughing
Yoda: Nah the next trilogy will deal with that dude
Sidious and Vader would have dealt with Yoda as soon as someone saw him, and if Yoda had to run from an already exhausted from fighting Windu Sidious, he wouldn’t had any chance at all
He was too high on ketamine, and dodging child support to come out of the shadows.
I really like the comparison between the Yoda/Palpatine fight and Halo Rocket Launcher-only death matches.
Always entertaining.
Too gosh darned tired. Seriously, he saw his death in a mere 20 years so he had to prepare to become a sparkly ghost
When yoda was falling and from that clone wars episode Anakin said to Ashoka "This weapon is your life"
@@bigredwolf6 well, he was just trying to teach his padawan the way his master taught him lol
No spare.....wrong answer
Just my opinion, but if my life depended on something I can hold in my hand, you better believe I'll have one for EACH hand and at least one spare.
If the empire knew where yoda was, they'd try to use a lot of resources to kill Yoda.
They would of used the death star just to kill that man
I think at the end of day that Yoda knew he simply wasn't strong enough to beat Sideous in a one-on-one fight. Yoda's biggest flaw was his hubris, and Palpatine took him down a peg.
Stfu. Yoda would have been able to beat sidious on an even playing ground. Not only did they fight in a situation where sidious had an advantage, but even during the last part of the battle he was winning and even disarmed sidious. He simply gave up hope, if he had stayed and trained more jedi( like he should have) and attempted to remake the order in secret in the unknown regions they would've clapped the empire
@@Legendary_Truth Sidious likely could have sensed if the Jedi were rebuilding their order. He would dedicate all of his resources to finding them and wipe them out a second time
@@Legendary_Truth Yoda publically admitted in the ROTS novel by Matt Stover that "He just didn't have it". Palpatine won and Yoda admitted that Palpatine was the superior combatant in that exchange.
“Too old for this shit I am”-Yoda
Something I've always been curious about. Would the Jedi have survived Order 66 if they had the Jedi temple located on a different planet rather than Coruscant? Maybe a planet like Illum or Ossus where there was limited Republic involvement? I feel one of the reasons the Jedi were killed easily was their proximity to the Senate and the fact they were so involved in the government.
He lost the duel with sidious and say,”Screw it,Old am I”.
"Kicked my ass, he did".
Yoda went into hiding partly because of his age. As powerful as he was in the force, even his body would wear out at some point. He was also playing the long game. He was present for the birth of the Skywalker twins, so he likely sensed he would have to train one or both of them.
Playing the long game sounds like the more likely scenario, though his age catching up to him is also another great point.
Maybe after only a handful of years since RotS, Yoda was no longer in a "optimal condition" to fight properly anymore, unlike Obi-Wan, Ahsoka and whatever surviving Jedi remained _(and were still not enough to stop the Empire)._
For Yoda to be “first in command” (strongest Jedi) he really doesn’t do much.
Jedi had great hype, but little else.
He was trying to hid the body after hitting someone with his 2005 Honda cific
Ah yes, the classic game rock, microwave, cat.
3:36 There is no such thing as luck
Couldn't figure out how to make the puppet fight probably lol
Because he knew Ahsoka was still alive with Kannan and Ezra :) left it to the youngsters lol
Yoda couldn't get Space-Uber to come out to Dagobah to pick him up to help.
"Too old for this shit ...am I.." - Yoda
Yoda;
“A friend, I quote; Too old for this bs, I am.”
Apparently, the only thing that Force Ghosts feared was a Thought Bomb. (Potentially generated by a powerful Sith.)
Yoda was a Grandmaster even at times when Jedi were more monks and less warriors. So he wanted to spend his last decades as a monk. And of course, make sure Vader's children won't follow their father to the Dark Side.
In the end, Luke turned out to understand the force even as much as Qui Gon (Finally typed his name right!) and even if he didn't follow Yoda strictly, he redeemed his father and brought peace to the galaxy... Apparently at least. Not that he didn't change the entire order after that.
His job was to redeem his father, then his father did his job as The Chosen One
“ hey the most powerful jedi of the republic is alive and fighting for the rebels.... alright let’s use every resource we have and stop acting like there no threat” yoda would be like what osama was to the usa.
Yeah pretty much
@JTV Channel Your answer doesnt make sense. Palpatine knows what a Jedi is, if he knows where Yoda is/Feels him trough the force he will gather all those ressources and strike him down. He has the power to command that, no one else needs to know why theyre doing it, theyll follow his orders nontheless
@JTV Channel Can he tho? The Man's but skin and bones. He's like 900 years old, hes ready to die, he just wants to find Luke and train him. And Dagobah makes sense since it has a lot of dark force energy so it hides him from Palpatine.
Finally someone is capable of understanding the fact that Yoda and Sidious in fact drew in their fight, so many people actually think Palpatine had won that fight it is honestly just ridiculous how abysmal their critical thinking is
TLDR yoda is a tactical nuke
I think another way of looking at it was Yoda was one of the few beings out there that had at least parity with Sidious. What that means is that neither could act with impunity. You could say that doesn't matter because Sidious had Vader to work through, but I think it is more accurate to say he HAD to work through Vader. Look at it this way, battles in the galaxy were won by who had the most firepower in the sector. For all the overall power the galactic navy had, they lost battles because the rebels had the intel and got the drop on them. If Sidious was free to leverage his considerable force powers chasing leads and consolidating power free of the specter of the galaxy's tiniest green asshole, he would have been able to accomplish so much more. But instead he had to do things quietly and /or through proxy, even as the emperor, because somewhere out there some tiny green asshole was waiting to stab him in the peepee the second he let his guard down. Yoda was threat just by his continued existence and secrecy that could check the emperor.
I'm just remembering Star Wars infinite when he threw the Death Star on the Imperial Palace
Never thought I would be second! I would like a breakdown on my 3rd favorite ship, the first order dropship!
@Zoop I am second
We do not mention first order heresy
@Zoop Oh well
@Zoop no he is ramen noodles official channel, not second
Yoda was very old and in touch with his mortality. He knew his time had passed and that the best hope was training the next generation in Luke.
Just imagine Yoda fighting TIE fighters in his Honda Civic 2001
Honestly im more curious about what happens to jedi who grow to old to perform their job
They become librarians
Your a jedi until you die or exiled from the order, so can't get to old to do your job when literally being alive is your job
I’m sure there was a part of the huge Jedi Temple that was basically a care home for elderly Jedi. Probably used for teaching younglings compassion.
“If imbued with the force you are not… give a fuck I won’t!”
Ketamine I must smoke, The high I shall get
Yup, Obi Wan lied (again) the Force is not an energy field, its just a drug inducted delusion....
Dagobah green.
hahahha
Too busy taking ketamine, he was
Yoda finally accepted that the true nature of the Force is not in elegant sword to sword combat, but patience & service to the higher goals of the Force itself...i.e. balance.
I don't understand how most people can't discern a Jedi from a Sith. Aside from the obvious appearances, their blade colors and Force abilities shouldn't be hard to tell apart
"Sick have I become, old and weak"
I really enjoyed today's video. Thank you for all the videos you share! I always look forward to watching them.
At the end of his quest for learning immortality in the clone wars he actually sees the future and there is another Skywalker so he kind of knew who would beat the emperor
3:33
...
...When is someone not on the "High Ground" while fighting Yoda?
"Pulls you in, the dark side, give in to your anger, you will if." - Yoda
The way I understand it, was the he went to Dagobah specifically because it was full of life but had no other higher level beings. He knew he couldn’t beat Sidious/Vader, and they would be hunting him down. He was nearing the end of his life and used the massive presence of the force there to help hide his presence and keep him alive long enough to train Luke, as he realized that the prophecy was really about Luke and not Anakin.
That and the movies weren’t fully thought out and they just kind of went along with it.
With the jedi order purged and yoda forced into exile he needed to reach his ketamine stache on degobah where the imperial DEA would not find him
I think it’s that he knew the emperor didn’t really take the rebellion serious, and that if he did join it would draw the full attention of the emperor which would ultimately make it even more difficult.
Not to mention it didn't look like he had communications or a spaceship on Degobah. It was highly likely he was unaware of what was going on and couldn't leave the planet anyway.
This point was not made but I find it important. Maybe Yoda with a clearer view of the future in Dagobah knows that the best outcome is to have Vader come back to the light side and help destroy Palpatine. He knows that he would never be the one to help him back, he would probably push him further into the dark side. That’s why when Luke goes to face him without finishing his training Yoda and force ghost Obi contemplate training Leia “there is another one.” Another child of Vader that could help him in his redemption.
That pretty much sums up the whole clone wars everybody knew it was a trap but no one bothered to do anything about it.
Kind of occurred to me that Yoda like just about all Jedi was probably born into this path, he chose to continue it but never chose to start it.
I always figured Yoda knew that the only hope would be Luke, and had to wait it out until he was ready to be trained...to confront Vader.
We was waiting for Luke, his training from the Wills made him understand that that was the way, the will of the force.
Rock shatters Microwave screen door, Microwave cooks Cat, Cat dodges Rock
POV: small green guy has killed the Emperor and has assumed leadership of the galaxy
I thought it was because his force signature was so big that any group he joined he would end up endangering.
He was 900 years old. He wanted to retire and live quietly.
the long game... .. no doubt. . good one here Tech. indeed that wasn't a coward move, that was a master move & the wisest thing for him to do at the time. It wasn't about him in particular, it was about what's still greater to come.. no doubt. .
Love the content and the channel
“Great warrior. Wars not make one great.”
I like how you say Yoda plays a longer game than palpimcscrotumface! 😆 well done sir, well done lol
Alan, u make such good videos. U know so much about the lore, awesome man, keep it up.
A) Because Yoda is so powerful, that if he left Dagobah where he can hide in its Dark Side presence, every Inquisitor, Shadow Guard, and both Sith Lords can sense where he is and send a fleet of Star Destroyers to glass the planet or destroy the fleet he's on.
B) Because he's getting old, by the time the Rebellion developed into a force that can challenge the Empire, he was already too old to fight and was at death's door. He wouldn't be much help in the battlefield outside of Battle Meditation, and even that would weaken him even further and make his death all the more imminent.
C) Because he's shell-shocked from the Clone Wars and from 1000 generations of the Jedi sacrificing blood, sweat, and toil to defend democracy, only for the democracy they defended to turn on them. He's lost faith in democracy and fighting for it, because he saw how the very same Senate who benefited from the Jedi Order's protection turned on them in a dime. And now that same Senate has members controlling the Rebel Alliance. It's like if that skank who threw you out of the house, took your kids, and put a massive child support tab on your ass came back and begged for your help. You'd throw her out of your house and tell her to never come back.
D) Because Yoda has seen how just fighting doesn't solve things. The Jedi Order during the Clone Wars used fighting to solve almost every problem, and it blew up on their faces. Hence why he's in hiding, meditating with the Force, trying to figure out where they went wrong.
He lifted a ship out of a swamp. I’m certain he could still use the Force in combat. Although he did lose his lightsaber
@@burgerking8475 He lifted it slowly and weakly, compared to how he was smashing together larger droid ships during Coruscant.
Because yoda was over war after the clone wars, hence the line “I’m not sure one can win a war”
Yoda saw into the future only to learn that Luke turns into a bum on an island and was so disgusted he decided it would be better if the Empire continued.
