He then figured out that he could snuff every single life just by thinking of it and it terrified him. He could kill over a million people just by thinking of it.

      @Johann Guchte I see you took the time to respond to each individual statement I made, but apparently you didn't have the time (or common sense) to provide any factual basis for your counterargument. All you effectively did was say that I was wrong and you're right. Wookiepedia is just like Wikipedia: it is a fan edited page that cites credible sources. If you took the time to actually read any of their articles, you would know this.
      And no, you're entirely mistaken, The Master of the Order is the elected leader of the entire Jedi Order (use common sense), whereas the Grandmaster is the leader of the Jedi Council. "The office of Master of the Order was distinct from the title of Grand Master, the holder of which chaired the High Council". This is sourced from the book "Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know".
      Additionally, Yoda himself says, per the Databank (a canonical encyclopedia for Star Wars knowledge) that the rank of Grandmaster is a title "reserved for the oldest and wisest living Jedi Master". Nothing about being the most powerful, just age and wisdom.
      If you have a superior source/sources and a counterargument that doesn't consist of "No, everything you say is wrong and everything I say is right", I'd love to continue the conversation. Until then, I'm going to operate under the assumption that you have no idea what you're talking about and are just another random YT commenter trying to start an argument.
      P.S.: Just rewatched the video. I suggest you watch 2:14 to 2:24, in which the poster says, and I quote, Zym is "not only the weakest of the Jedi Grandmasters, but quite possibly one of the most pathetic masters the Order has ever produced". Needless to say, that statement in itself invalidates your entire argument about Grandmasters being the most powerful and skilled by default. And you think this guy, who gets 1 shotted by a no-name bounty hunter, is more powerful in the force than Mace Windu? Mace Windu, who killed the most famous and skilled bounty hunter in the galaxy (Jango Fett), and defeated Darth Sidious in a lightsaber duel? lol.

      @Dragon50275 I disagree. I think Anakin had a profound and deep connection to the force. For example, look at the way he smashes Luke with objects during their duel in Cloud City in ESB. Even as a child he demonstrated his force power by being the only human who could pilot a pod racer. Isn't it Vader's strong connection to the dark side of the Force that allows him to live and exist in his horrible state, in his armor? Using pain, rage, and his connection to the dark side, to turn those things into pure power? Hell, now that I think about it, he caught Han Solo's blaster fire on his open hand in ESB....that's some force power if you ask me.

      @Dragon50275 I don't think that's canon. Anakin was perhaps the Jedi Order's greatest duelist. In one on one combat he defeated Count Dooku, who was the greatest master of form 2(makashi) lightsaber combat who ever lived. When executing Order 66, he killed the Jedi master Cin Drallig in the Jedi Temple, arguably the greatest Jedi lightsaber master alive(besides Obi Wan). I don't really want to debate Obi Wan's mastery of Soresu, but he's simple invulnerable. No Jedi besides Anakin could do that without a strong, if not the strongest, connection to the force. Not to mention he broke from the darkside to kill the Emperor. Maybe I'm wrong. I often am. Perhaps we'll just have to agree to disagree.

    I also got the feeling when reading the RoTS novelisation that Yoda could have beaten Sidious but he understood during their duel that the Jedi had already lost, they lost when they allowed themselves to become soldiers, and his killing of Sidious would be useless and would only serve to further taint the image of the Jedi in the eyes of the galaxy and risk his own fall to the dark side. Thus his retreat when he says “failed I have” he isn’t talking about his duel with Sidious but of his leadership of the Jedi during the clone wars

    Abeloth was only "over a dozen times stronger" when a single statement was made in their many encounters. By the final battle where he was a grandmaster and followed her with krayt, battling her in that dark dimension (where she is the strongest she can be) and OVERPOWERING HER DIRECTLY WHILE SHE AND KRAYT WERE BOTH DRAINING LUKE'S POWER. This is impressive considering that Luke didnt have his lightsaber, and didnt use his light aura. He headlocked abeloth to where she was wailing in pain and fear, and kicked out Krayt's leg from under him and threatened him with the raging Abeloth. By the end of the EU, Luke had greatly surpassed Abeloth and was likely at the level of the Father

      Yea no. Luke was never at any point stronger than Abeloth or the Father. I love Legends Luke but that just isn't true. The only reason why Luke and Krayt were able to beat her was because together they represented both Light and Dark (Daughter and Son basically), Krayt was Force draining Abeloth ( and Luke but not as much), and BECAUSE they were fighting her in the Force dimension THEY were both more powerful than usual AND were able to directly affect Abeloth's Force spirit in a way that was impossible in physical form.

Luke was Grandmaster long before Abeloth took the stage. 1v1 Luke gets clowned by Abeloth. Talking about an entity that casually nukes cities with the Force, dominates planets with her mind, and threw off the Force net technique of hundreds to thousands of Sith and Nightsisters simultaneously killing them AND fighting off Luke, Ben, Darth Taalon ( Council level Sith Lord) and a strike team of Sith. Luke directly fights Abeloth at least 4 times and is near dead or easily defeated each time.

Evidence of Luke being extremely vulnerable in return of the Jedi already proves the whole thing that Luke is stronger than Vader but weaker than Sideous, basically showing that Luke is weaker than Yoda with using the force. That's how I came to the conclusion.

    His new Jedi order has a way better system than the one created by old Jedi order’s.
    Many Jedi masters even Yoda couldn’t get rid of old Jedi code such as no relationship attachment or no uses of any weapons but only lightsabers, ignoring or let it go reaches of the facts when loved one’s (including friend or their Padawan) death or when they are in danger.
    Luke turns Sith into Jedi side back successfully and he himself showed understanding of dark side in among himself also showed compassion towards the Sith rather than what Old Jedi order believed like the Sith or any dark sided thing must be eliminated no matter what.

    • @SamuelJamesNary
      @SamuelJamesNary 6 років тому +55

      Vid0907 - Canon Luke is NOT more compelling. Canon Luke had his entire character assassinated...
      While his fear of being responsible for another Vader is one thing, if you really look at his character during the original trilogy, while it is realistic to think he could make that mistake... that DOESN'T mean he would just decide, "oh... I screwed up. I guess I'll just go die and let the bad guys take over." Canon Luke is a complete and abject coward, pure and simple, who could not take responsibility for his mistakes... NOT a compelling case for the hero that stopped the Empire.
      Not to mention that Luke ended up getting sucked into the whole sort of poorly written narrative that has plagued canon. Think on this for a moment... Luke Skywalker, the man who outdueled Vader and surely improved as a duelist since "Return of the Jedi" was completely and utterly DOMINATED by a girl with no formal training whatsoever. Now... since running away to die, I'm sure some things got rusty... but there is NO way that an untrained force user like Rey should have been able to dominate him as easily as she did.
      And if you find THAT compelling... I really don't know what to say. I'm all for having strong female characters. Star Wars has a history with that, especially if you go into Legends. But it shouldn't writing a story simply for highlighting strong female characters. The character must fit a convincing story... And you really DON'T have that in canon beyond the fact that Rey is the Goddess of the Force...

    • @SamuelJamesNary
      @SamuelJamesNary 6 років тому +32

      Vid0907 - The case with Luke has little to do with his power. It is ENTIRELY due to his character. Think on it for a moment...
      He was startled by a force vision that made Ben appear bad or that Ben was being manipulated and he made a mistake... THAT much is believable.
      However, instead of recognizing the mistake and taking responsibility for it... he fled and didn't even tell Leia he was going off to die. That is completely irresponsible and is the sign of a coward...
      If they wanted him more human... that's fine. But they don't need to make him a coward to do it. They destroyed his character for no reason. That has nothing to do with "power levels."

    • @SamuelJamesNary
      @SamuelJamesNary 6 років тому +16

      Vid0907 - He felt the galaxy was better off under the rule of a militaristic organization that has no qualms with murdering political opponents and potentially entire planets to force the Galaxy to bow to them? Why did he fight the Empire then? He said flat out in A New Hope that he hated the Empire. And now he's run and hid from an organization that worships it.
      Being ashamed of a mistake is one thing. Wanting to die as tyranny takes over the galaxy is QUITE another. And in that, what Luke did is complete and utter cowardice. Making a mistake is NOT an excuse to run and go off to die. I can understand being ashamed... but to decide to just die is NOT in Luke's character. There is nothing in the original trilogy that would explain that...
      From what we know of Luke's character from the original trilogy, while he may go into some isolation to learn how to counter Snoke and his great power... he would still be responsible to Leia, apologize for his failure and promise to set it right. To not even admit the mistake until cornered on it... THAT is cowardice pure and simple, as he's apparently afraid of being judged on that failure.
      He may not have wanted to fight her, but that doesn't mean his only option was to just keep her at arms length and then fall on his butt. All that did was give her the initiative and momentum in the fight and allowed her to dominate him. Even all she was doing is letting off steam, she'd been given the initiative because Luke wouldn't do anything to hold her back... Like say... lift her into air so she can't move and talk to her like a grown up...
      Instead he gave Rey the advantage and she took advantage of it and dominated him for it.

      The way Luke acted in TLJ was entirely justified and in line with the character, just the same as Legends Luke was. They both represent different ways the character could have progressed as he aged.

    • @JediAcolyte94

      +Robert Fancyman Not really justified and not really in line with the character. Luke in TFA and TLJ hid out on a planet on the edge of the galaxy while everything literally and figuratively went to hell. This is not keeping in line with Luke's character. This isn't in line with his character and where the OT left him at the end of ROTJ. Luke wouldn't abandon his friends and live on obscure planet for 30 years. He didn't abandon his friends in ESB when he trained on Dagobah. When his friends were in trouble at Cloud City he dropped his training and left to rescue his friends. He didn't do that in definitely didn't do that in TFA or Han Solo would still be alive.
      Luke wasn't someone who would let failure consume him and hide out somewhere. Luke was hopeful in the OT and was set to fulfill what Kenobi and Yoda trained him to do. TLJ butchered that by him failing to revive the Jedi Order and not pursuing a way to revive a second time after he failed the first time. Also Luke spends the entirety of ROTJ with the plan to redeem his father, believing he can redeem Anakin, and succeeds in doing so. How is it you go from that to trying to kill his nephew for being tempted by the dark side and Snoke. Luke didn't give up and let failure consume him after his loss to Vader in ESB, he could have but didn't. Same can't be said for Luke "Jake" Skywalker.

      I don't want to get dragged into an internet argument over this, so I'll just state my reasons for thinking it worked and we'll leave it at that. Luke was consistently shown to be someone who had moments of weakness, like when he gave in to the Dark Side for a few moments and defeated Vader.
      When he was standing over Kylo with his lightsaber ignited, it was a moment of weakness. He had seen the galaxy put through so much sadness and destruction the last time he'd seen that kind of darkness, and even then he was about to put his weapon away when Kylo woke up.
      Just that single moment of weakness left the Jedi Order destroyed once again, with all his students either dead or turned to the Dark Side. That shattered his confidence in training Jedi, it made him think that him being around would be bad for the galaxy, so he went into hiding to protect his friends and the innocent of the galaxy from his failings as a person.
      His self-imposed exile was his way of protecting his friends, not abandoning them. Misguided or not, he didn't know any better way.

      Is he even Jedi Grandmaster in Disney version? I haven't seen the Last Jedi, and I'm not going to watch it. But based what I have gathered, I get impression he's just bitter old hobo, who had massive potential, but never actually became even equivalent of a regular Jedi knight, because there was no one left to teach him. Does he actually do anything, that's more than what he is able to do in the original trilogy?

    You should try to rank every Skywalker/Solo jedi, sure Luke might be at the top, but there is a lot of discussion to be had with Cade, Jaina, Kol, Roan, Ben, Leia, Jacen, Anakin Skywalker/Solo, plus half a dozen others.

    • @austinkersey2445
      @austinkersey2445 2 роки тому +1

      In my opinion:
      1. Luke Skywalker
      2. Jacen Solo
      3. Jaina Solo Fel
      4. Kol Skywalker and Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader
      5. Cade Skywalker
      6. Nat Skywalker and Leia Organa Solo
      7. Ben Skywalker
      8. Anakin Solo
      I don't know enough to rank the rest, but Ben Solo aka Kylo Ren is bottom of the barrel, and Anakin Solo and Ben Skywalker might be interchangeable. It's been a while since I've read the Vong series and their other appearances. As for the rest, Luke is indisputable, Jacen is described as being better than Vader and it took an ambush for Jaina to defeat him, and even that didn't quite do the job so she is overall below him. I put Kol and Anakin together due to Kol's hype and confirmed abilities, and Anakin's just a beast. He isn't quite on par with Jacen or Jaina though. Cade has simply defeated opponents that I think would give anyone below him trouble. Nat and Leia are together because I believe I remember Leia being mid Council level, and Nat is kind of out of practice.

    Unfortunately, Rian Johnson has now made Luke Skywalker probably the weakest of all Jedi Grand Masters. Can you think of any Jedi Grand Master who's weaker than Luke Skywalker?
    And Ma-Rey Sue? Well, it's hard to conceive of a Force user more powerful than she. Within a mere week of learning that the Force even existed, she's now a master of a lightsaber combat who can successfully mind-probe and defeat longtime Force users like Kylo Ren, she can take out multiple Praetorian guards with barely a scratch, and perhaps most disheartening of all, she easily defeats Grand Master Luke Skywalker in their duel on Ach-To.
    I hope Episode IX begins with Ma-Rey waking up on the Millenium Falcon, then saying to herself: "Blimey, what an awful nightmare that was!" Then all the events of Episode VIII are revealed to be just one really, really bad dream.

      Luke cut himself off from the force after the death of the new Jedi order. The only side of the force was the dark side which the force is a self balancing entity, which gave rise to some one with equal power in the force on the light side, Rey.

      @@matthewhellmann5759 bruh Luke never fell to the dark side. The dark side just existing isn't enough to spawn a light side person to bring balance. Luke already did that by destroying the Sith. No Jedi, no Sith=balance.
      I think Rey is the start of something new. That's why she's exceptional in the Force. She isn't Jedi, she isn't Sith. She can touch the Force, but both have been gone for so long now that they are nothing more than frameworks people coming after can use to build their own model.
      Like Kylo did. He attempted to follow his grandfather down the path of the Sith, only to realize such a path no longer existed and he has to forge his own destiny.
      I believe Rey is the same with the light side. All she has been is disappointed by Luke, and I believe this was a concious choice to show that both the Jedi and the Sith no longer have any bearing on what will happen in the future.
      Whatever we see in the next movie, it will not be the Jedi coming back. Or fighting the Sith. I think it's going to be an evolution to something completely different.
      Whether or not that is a good thing is up for debate. I myself love the NJO stories a whole lot to me that's prime Star Wars.

A Grand Master that no Sith or any evil being, force or non-force user, can truly contend with. A swordsman who has mastered all Jedi lightsaber forms and other sword fighting forms all previous Jedi has never seen before. A being worthy of resurrecting and promoting and improving the Jedi Order.

    It's this kind of video that makes my heart sing. Someone looking at 45 years of SW lore and using that knowledge to make an excellent video about the Grandmasters of the Jedi Order. And to say that there are people these days who say we should just forget all of this lore and "move on" .....no even worse, there are some extremists in that camp who would want nothing more than for all that knowledge to be destroyed at once, so that only the "new canon" will be availlable. But that's never going to happen, because it would mean that they would have to literally "hunt down" everyone who has books containing the Legends Lore and destroy them. Hmph, as if the owners would hand them over so easily. Fact is that all this knowledge that has been accumulated over so many years, and wich Disney and even George Lucas, dismiss so easily, has to be preserved and forwarded at any opportunity so it stays alive. Don't let those narrowminded fools that call themselves "new fans " and who want to see this lore abolished win !
