i know that there are a lot of people that THINK (for some reason) that Windu is better the Yoda. I dont really see how...
force abilities, its quite obvious that Yoda is far superior. to argue that is completely stupid.
the question at hand is: is yoda a better swordsman then windu?
i dont think so. it is stated on SW.com that Dooku had beaten Windu in a duel before. now first off Dooku is a former apprentice of Yoda's, secondly its quite obvious that Dooku was gonna lose the fight with Yoda had he stayed and fought. making it logically contradictory for Dooku to be able to beat windu, and yoda able to beat dooku, but yoda not being able to beat windu.
style wise, yoda is far more unconventional, which makes him such a dangerous swordsman. although windu might be damn good, he still uses two hands and fights relatively the same as every other normal sized humanoid. yoda does not. to be able to fight against such a confusing flurry of attack is a near impossible feat (and it shows how damn good dooku really was) not to mention guys Yoda has had 800 years to perfect and train his fighting style, windu has had about 40 years, a big difference.
the ONLY thing that makes any sense at all is that windu still has his youth (in comparison to yoda) as well, windus strikes would tend to be more powerful, just because his style is based more upon powerful strikes then yoda's insane flurry of attacks. other then his youth, yoda is better then windu.
i completely agree with ya dude, but the real question is would that ever happen? well ofcourse not
and instead of just saying that to people just say, who are the only jedi left after revenge of the sith
come on its a no brainer that yoda is betta than windu, also if you watch the bonus disc on attack of the clones dvd various people do say that windu is second only to yoda, so its now proven
Hmmmm, I personally think yoda is better. I don't see how ppl can argue against that, but i suppose thats what this thread is for, for ppl to argue against it lol.
Mind u, ppl do say silly things, one of the first rumours i heard about ep 3 was that padme was a sith.
yeah, i heard the clone rumour too. I've just read the "mace v palps" thread, didn't know mace had such a following. Ah well, lets put it this way, yoda survived a fight against palpatine, mace didn't lol.
In a lightsaber duel, Mace would defeat Yoda. For the person who said Yoda had an advantage through his distinct style, remember the Windu was the only living master of his saber form.
Was Yoda the stronger Jedi? Yes. Was he wiser? Yes. Was he more powerful in the Force? Definitely. Would Windu defeat him in a straight up duel? Of course.
in AOTC ob1 said that if anakin paid more attention to lightsaber training he would 'rival master yoda as a swordsman'. Surely this implies yoda is the best of the jedi including mace.
thats what i'm saying, but there are people who say otherwiese. just wait, they'll all be here eventually, unless...i dunno, there were lots in the "windu vs palps" thread tho...

Anakin, "...as wise as master yoda and as powerful as master windu..."
Yoda is all around better, but i think in just straight up lightsaber fighting, Mace has the edge. Im not a Mace fan boy by stretch of the imagination, but i just think Mace is a better swordsman. But theres no way possible for Mace to win in a duel of the force and sabers.
Anakin has beaten Dooku with no real efford. He not just defeated him he even vulgarized him.
And on the other hand who said that Dooku really lost against Yoda? Maybe he just couldnīt win? He distracted Yoda and fled. Have you ever considered the possibility that Mace is with "the second badest person in the galaxy" he meant Anakin?
Just a thought!
By the way Mace was the youngest person ever became a member of the Council. In 25.000 years. Just wanna add it.
Donīt wanna argue with you I like your thoughts man!

I know in some way and I know this interview with Sam Jackson too. And I contemplained a long time over it and I coudnīt find out for sure who he meant. I still thinking about it. Thatīs one point I like this discussion! But give me please a feedback to the other points. I also answered to you at my Mace vs Palps thread.

Ultimately, Obi-Wan beats Anakin NOT because of greater use of the force OR better swordmanship, but rather due to his greater amount of experience as a Jedi.......and what Jedi (alive at the time of Ep.3) has more experience than Yoda???
