The space saga has captivated audiences for more than 40 years.

Fans are amazed by the scale of the battles, the political intrigue, and an endless and enchanting world filled with all kinds of different and unusual creatures. One of these mysterious creatures is Yoda — the Jedi Master with incredible abilities.

Viewers decided to remember the best moments with the enigmatic character who has no backstory and origin.

3. Duel between Yoda and Count Dooku

The duel between the little Jedi and his apprentice, the leader of the Separatists, was the main battle of The Clone Wars.

During the duel, Yoda demonstrated his incredible fighting skills. He dodged enemy attacks and responded with powerful lightsaber strikes. But it was the Master and his apprentice's use of the Force that left fans in awe.

The duel between these two characters will forever be remembered as one of the few bright spots in the much-maligned The Clone Wars.

2. Yoda lifts the X-Wing

It is one of the most iconic moments in the entire Star Wars universe. In The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda taught Luke the ways of the Force, but the young apprentice was too hasty to understand and apply the wisdom.

Despite his advanced age, Yoda provided the naive Skywalker with a valuable lesson about the Jedi way, telling him that the Force is in every corner of the world, literally in all of us.

Yoda used his skills to lift the X-Wing out of the swamp and impart his knowledge to Luke. This moment was symbolic because it showed that even the most incredible challenges can be overcome with faith in one's abilities.

1. Duel between Yoda and Palpatine

For fans, Yoda's face-to-face encounter with Darth Sidious in Revenge of the Sith is by far the Jedi’s coolest appearance.

During the duel with Palpatine, Yoda displayed all of his power and wisdom. The incredible battle between the iconic hero and villain remains one of the highlights of the George Lucas universe.

Fans consider the best part of the battle to be when Yoda deflected the antagonist's lightning bolts and the moment where the Jedi spun one of the senator's rostrums and hurled it at the Emperor. It was yet another demonstration of the incredible power lurking within that character.
