Most overrated Jedi?

Eliminate lucky breaks, and Obi-wan doesn't beat anybody

In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.

all of you are obsessed about records in light saber dues but that is not what makes a jedi alone good. yoda is the best jedi though he rarely displays his lightsaber ability. Think about it you know it to be true.

Just watched #7. Kylo Renn is clearly overrated. Couldn't even defeat a completely untrained rookie.

Has to be Luke

What about sith? Because if I could include them it would definatly go to Darth Maul. Beat an old and poor fighter and was smashed by the inexperienced Obi-Wan. Just because someone looks BA does not mean they actually are. For most overrated Jefi I agree with the person who went with Yoda, he has a poor record.

Not Maul's fault. George Lucas said if he had known how well-received Maul was by the audience he would not have killed him in Ep 1. Maul was a beast who was a victim of bad writing.

Anakin Skywalker - supposedly he was "the chosen one" but he succumbed to the power of the dark side and was defeated by a young kid who had not yet completed his jedi training.

George ruined the movies and the story. He doesn't know sh1t when it comes to Star Wars. The originals were good because he didn't have a free hand to show off how batsh1t crazy he is. Once he got unlimited creative freedom, we see what a mess he made of the whole story.

It's sad really.

Kylo Ren is NOT a Jedi/Sith. He is of the First order and the knights of Ren who's leader is Snoke.

It's not that Kylo is weak, it is that Rey is rather strong in the force and this is seen through her interaction with Maz and her guidance to lukes lightsaber.

I would have to say overall the MOST overrated Jedi would have to be Anakin, not VADER (these were for the most part different people). I think Anakin's need for power really blinded his abilities, which is why Obi-Wan was able to defeat him in Episode III.

But Obi-Wan being who is was, spared his life, which was a mistake for the most part.

Some could say Luke is overrated, however, given his circumstances, I think he did really well. And Rey is the same way. You would think they will be Jedi by the end of the series. I mean Rey is showing to be stronger than Anakin with NO former training, I mean she did use the force to use the Jedi Mind trick without knowing what the heck she was doing. I think her force skills are on par with Yoda.

Luke Skywalker, right?

Anakin Skywalker. The only impressive feet she ever did were as a kid doing pod racing. Otherwise he stunk it up. He got owned by Count Dooku AND Obi Wan. I at least expected to see some epic light saber battles where he busted out some lebron James moves. Very disappointed. The only accomplishments he really managed in adult life were betraying Mace Windu ( way more skilled than him) and betraying the Jedi Order. Which really took no skill. Exacting revenge for his Mom didn't take all that much skill either. However saving his wifey from the arena took a moderate amount of skill, but I think most Jedi knights could have done that.

Darth maul, Sith Lord battles. That's the good stuff. They should cut the crap and get more of that. Exotic locations, Middle East, and battles with Sith Lords. More medieval-Ey and antiquity stuff.

OBI WAN KENOBI

He needed a double team to take darth maul

Also he got lucky against anakin

Two most overrated jedis are the clowns who accompany Mace Windu to confront Sidious and get cut down in about 10 seconds. Mace is the most powerful. End of threads

Please elaborate as to how he got lucky against Anakin? He clearly out skilled him in combat skills and the knowledge of the force.

Mace was clearly the strongest. Handled Palpatine with ease, unlike Yoda, who was defeated by a damaged Palpatine. Today has to be the most overrated, as he was revered as the strongest but was overcome and completely defeated. Plus he fled like a coward and allowed probably millions to be killed, enslaved, and oppressed.
