Well that makes sense. That's why Vader got beat down by Leia after he cut off Luke's hand... Also, he was all messed up and weak after he killed his mentor, Obi-Wan. He couldn't fly a Tie Fighter or anything. Good to see how things are staying true to the Star Wars universe. |
I don't understand how anyone can compare Vader, fully trained Jedi Knight that been a Sith for decades, to Kylo Ren. Kylo Ren was a Jedi Apprentice that fell to the dark side. Vader had grew up in the time where the Jedi were plentiful. He trained with the Jedi when they were several accomplished masters in the Galaxy. He was stronger than Obi Wan but lost to him because of he was conflicted. This lead him to become the obsidian visage the galaxy came to fear. Kylo Ren was an apprentice that killed a bunch a bunch of apprentices. He wields and imperfect light saber with a cracked Kyber crystal. Given the state of his light saber, one should not need to hear from Snoke that he hadn't completed his training. It should be readily apparent. Who are the great warriors he's defeated in single combat? Bully a bunch of non force users doesn't make one a great warrior.
Vader spent the time between Episdoes III and Episdoes IV hunting down Jedi to sharpen which would further sharpen his skill and this was after being properly trained. Who was Kylo Ren honing his skills against? Hux? TR8-8R? Sith don't fully train their apprentices. They give them just enough knowledge to perform the task at hand because they fear being betrayed. If Snoke is who we all think he is, Darth Plagueis, we know why he'd be hestitant to fully train his apprentice unless necessary. You can see the results of fully training his last apprentice, Sidious, all over his face.
