Yoda versus Mace Windu

Two of the greatest jedi ever battle in the temple training room. Offensive force powers are restricted. Can Yoda's flashy unorthodox dueling style overcome the flawless dueling master that is Mace?

Yes, it can. Yoda wins case closed.

be nice people, I mean for Christs sake his "Hi I'm new " thread is still on the first page on the introductory section. give him a break.

Fox it's been established(though before your time) that Yoda after a struggle will eventually overwhelm mace with his Ataru.

Yoda wins

www.starwars.com states that Yoda has defeated Mace Windu before...

Well Yoda struggled with Sidious in a saber battle and Mace pretty much dueled perfectly against Sidious. I personally think Yoda was overrated.

In his day, Mace was one of the best lightsaber fighters of the Jedi order. It was said only two opponents ever bested him -- Yoda, and Dooku. Only the most skilled of the Jedi could master the his Form VII discipline of combat -- the deadly technique known as vaapad -- for its aggressive nature treaded dangerously upon dark side practices.

This is proof that Mace has been defeated by Yoda. Cheers 😉

I dont blame Yoda. Sidious had almost every advantage possible.

He didn't in the initial saber fight.

Sidious had plenty of advantages. Both in the saber fight and following after.

What advantage did he have in the initial saber fight?

With Mace? Personally, I believe that Palpatine was playing weak, in comparison to his later duel with Yoda, and the way he burst to life as soon as Windu didn't have his lightsaber at his throat.

I mean, he was forcibly disarmed, that wasn't planned, but he could have intended for something similar to happen at some point during the duel.

I don't know, I'm just crazy.

Anyways, you also have to look at the Jedi Masters Sidious killed. They weren't on Mace's level, but they couldn't have been THAT far behind that it'd be an imitation of Anakin slaughtering younglings.

I agree. Lucas did say Mace overpowered Sidious, and yes, he did. He over powered Sidious in the saber duel. But Sidious wasn't using the Force, and if he had surely Mace would have been taken out just as easily as Dooku took Obi-Wan out on the Invisible Hand.

Yoda beats Mace.

Yeah, Yoda beats Mace...and Palpatine probably allowed Mace to get the better of him by not using the DS

I agree with the above three posters.

You really think so? Mace's defence against the force was able to match Sidious' force power as is shown when he redirected Sidious' lightning back onto him.

Mace overpowered Sidious and defeated him in that Lightsaber fight. Sidious wasn't faking. Lucas said it and so did the databank.

And when Sidious blasted Mace with a torrent of Lightning, he failed to destroy Sidious.

Sidious wasn't faking bursting Mace with Lightning. Mace just effectively blocked it. It says that in the Databank as well.

Sidious was overpowered, outmaneuvered and when Mace redirected Sidious' Lightning back at him, Sidious started making phony pleas.

Thank you Sorgo! Lucas's word is law in the Star Wars Universe, and even the most logical answers are worth squat if Lucas says so
