    #StarWars #Canon #MaceWindu
    Mace Windu, a Force-sensitive human male, was a revered Jedi Master and member of the Jedi High Council during the last years of the Galactic Republic. During his time in the Jedi Order, he once served as elected leader of the Jedi and, during the Clone Wars, as a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic. He was the greatest champion of the Jedi Order and promoted its ancient traditions amidst the growing influence of the dark side of the Force in the corrupt, declining days of the Republic.
    When the Separatist Crisis spawned the birth of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and sparked the Clone Wars, Windu and the Jedi rallied to the defense of the Republic and became the leaders of the Grand Army of the Republic. Throughout the war, Windu served the Jedi and the Republic in various capacities-on the battlefield in command of the clone army, on Coruscant as an overseer of the war effort and an advisor to Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, and even as a diplomat to contested worlds, despite his disdain of politics. His exploits on the frontline served as a reminder of his reputation as a renowned Jedi warrior.
    As the war drew to a close, Windu became increasingly suspicious of the chancellor's motives, as Palpatine had amassed near-dictatorial control over the Galactic Senate, and sensed the rising power of the dark side in the galaxy. His suspicions were confirmed when Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi Knight and the Chosen One of ancient prophecy, discovered that Palpatine was Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith who manipulated the Republic and the Separatist Alliance into war. Windu, along with Jedi Masters Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar, and Saesee Tiin, confronted Palpatine with the intention of arresting him. Instead, the Dark Lord attacked them, striking them down one by one until only Windu was left. Windu bested Palpatine in the confrontation and-deciding the chancellor was too dangerous to be left alive due to his influence over the government-prepared to strike him down, but the intervention of Anakin Skywalker, who saved the chancellor's life, led to Windu's death. As a result, Skywalker fell to the temptation of the dark side and was renamed Darth Vader.
    Windu's actions led Palpatine to brand the Jedi as traitors to the Republic. The chancellor executed Order 66 and clone troopers across the galaxy turned against and killed their Jedi leaders, marking the fall of the Jedi Order. Palpatine transformed the Republic into the Galactic Empire and the Emperor's new regime promoted anti-Jedi sentiment across the galaxy. Through propaganda, the Empire portrayed Windu as the leader of a criminal gang of Jedi who caused the outbreak of the Clone Wars. In spite of the propaganda, some of Windu's actions were remembered with fondness; General Cham Syndulla, who served alongside Windu during the Battle of Ryloth, remembered Windu with great respect and told the tale of how Windu helped him liberate Ryloth during the war

    Downplay of Mace win against Sidious is wild. Sith Lords have always been experts in either Sorcery/Alchemy or Dueling. Sidious was great in Dueling but probably due to him being under Plaguies his specialty was more Sorcery based. Mace being a better duelist shouldn't surprise anyone. Along with his fighting style of shatter point and Vaapad.

      One point that is overlooked is that the Jedi Order required a Jedi to outright master forms 1-6 and all of the stance and kata variants if they wished to learn Juyo. Then they needed unanimous permission from the Council, then finally permission of the Grandmaster.
      This is why so few Jedi learn the form and why Anakin was denied multiple times.

      In EU, he's in the general ball park of RotS Yoda, RotS Sidious, and post-Invisible Hand Anakin/pre suit Vader. Other sources also place him having similar power levels to Yoda and Sidious at that time. And yes, Windu did beat Sidious fair and square, if you examine every statement and feat. Parts of the novel were not considered greater canon than the movie, which included the novel's depiction of the Mace/Sidious duel. The Star Wars Databank, the Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, the Galactic Files trading card games, etc, which are all considered C-canon (G-canon in the databank's case as far as the movie info) all stated that Windu bested Sidious legitimately and no official source claims that Sidious threw the fight or was holding back. The New Essential Chronology even states that Windu fought a Palpatine who "unleashed his full fury" against him and the B-Team.

    I wonder how this analysis fits with the Son of Dathomir comics.
    Sidious claims that Talzin's saber skills were not on Dooku's level, yet she was able to fight more or less evenly with Mace in TCW. Maul was also able to fight against both Mace and Aayla in what he claimed was 'a fair fight'.
    So perhaps we could say that at a base level Mace is somewhat below Dooku's level however if he decides to use Vaapad it boosts him up to Sidious level?

    I do believe Mace won his duel against Sidious, but there was one thing that allowed him to, that being Sidious could have killed him first and avoided the issue. Then there's also the fact that Yoda disarmed Sidious off screen, which is why it switches to Sidious using force abilities to keep Yoda at bay. Then there was the fact tbat, the only reason Yoda lost the fight was simply because it threw him further due to his smaller size. Had he not been thrown so far down, he probably would've continued the fight, but he wasn't able to return and knew it was better to retreat to teach future jedi

    There are no statements that Sidious let Windu win, but there are none that confirm he didn’t, or that Sidious would have actually ended up dead had Anakin not intervened at all. It was a fact in Anakin’s mind that that would happen, but not actually confirmation that it would’ve. I have no doubt that Sidious would’ve done something to save himself had Anakin not done anything. He is more powerful than Mace, and thus could focus on force pushing him away before he would strike, and likely disarm him, allowing Palpatine to shoot lighting at him with his full strength, killing the Jedi master.

  • @georgbergsten6050
    @georgbergsten6050 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Are you saying Windu was the best of this era? If so I could maybe agree although I think scaling him above Yoda due to their fights with Sidious is a bit unfair considering they were both able to defeat palpatine in lightsaber combat but because of the larger environment Palpatine was able to turn the fight with Yoda into a force duel. Whereas with Windu they were in a small room so he was unable to escape once he had lost the lightsaber duel.
    Also putting him above the later versions of Sidious is highly questionable to me. Palpatine had decades of time with unlimited resources and full acces to the galaxy so his power probably would've grown quite a bit. Also by the time of ep9 his power is obviously unrivaled.
    Also you never brought up some of Windus anti feats. For example if he was truly on the level of Yoda and Sidious I feel like he should've been able to defeat Maul rather easily. But even with Ayla Secura helping him Maul was able to hold his own and escape.

    In my opinion the power of the verse is around large mountain to small island level. My reasoning for this is that Yoda casually bullied a living mountain, Vader blocked photon torpedos witch can damage large space ships with around this level of durability and Palpatines big lightning bolt in The Rise of Skywalker was calculated at around this level.
    For speed it ranges between lightning timing and relativistic to light. Because jedi can block sith lightning and can pilot ships that even with their base speed (not hyperspace) are around relativistic to light speed.

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone misinterpret form 7 vapaad more than in this video.
    I just want to be clear. At no point in time was mace windu ever intended to be a more powerful character in either force capability or light saber dueling than Yoda.
    Regardless of the Disney purchase, Star Wars, Canon has always been written as movies first and content related to George Lucas takes precedent. The novelization of the films are considered Canon unless they deviate from what we see on screen. George Lucas line by line, edited the revenge of the Sith novelization and the author Matthew Stover has stated that it was 100% Lucas’s vision in that book. And that book states that Yoda was the most powerful Jedi but the order had to offer.
    George Lucas did not intend for the character of mace to be that- and I don’t care what book Disney’s created that formed your opinion about this.
    But the power tier system created for light saber, dueling for revenge of the Sith has Yoda and sidious on an equal level at a nine out of nine. Mace is an 8 to 8.5(with vapaad amp).
    Mace is an Analog to Dooku not yoda.
    There is not a chance in hell that mace could’ve performed the tutamensis feat that yoda did in the senate rotunda.
    In addition vapaad does not allow the Jedi user to actually use the Darkside. You actually stated that in this video, and it pretty much invalidates everything you have to say from there on if you actually believe that.

    It's ridiculous how Disney canon still keeps Mace as the champion of the jedi order and his mastery of Vaapad, yet waters the explanation of how Mace developed the form since most of Vaapad's creation and functions were primarily in Legends. How the hell did Mace even create Vaapad in Disney timeline?
    Honestly, I would just include Shatterpoint and other Legends comics featuring Mace as to further explain how strong he actually was. Disney just dumbed him down to Jedi Master everybody hates because he kicked out ahsoka instead of Jedi Master who tried his best and had to see his own Order fall back on their hypocritical ways and was given a shit hand with his apprentice's (depa) fall.
    This is just another reason why I despise Disney's so called canon. They dumbed down every single council master and nerf them minus anakin and obi wan who were still somewhat consistent with their Legends counterpart (TCW is considered legends despite contradictions to EU CW Multimedia project). When the EU clone wars comics showed the other council masters, you could feel that they weren't just canon fodder, they earned their seat through merit and effort. With Disney Canon? They nuked it to where only Anakin, Obi Wan, Ahsoka, Yoda, and Mace do anything of actual value
