23. Yoda vs Spock

This is truly a duel for the ages. In the green corner weighing at probably 35 pounds of pure lean muscle, Grand Master of the Jedi, Yoda. And in the Blue Corner, weighing in at a buck 50, with pointy ears, and formerly a Lieutenant Commander, Spock. One is so intune with the Force, that instead of dying, he just gave himself to it. And, the other is considered to be the most wise and benevolent character in the entire Star Trek universe.

Yoda: 

  • Species — HE IS LITERALLY HIS OWN SPECIES
  • Religious Philosophy — Jedi, Light Side of the Force
  • Rank — Grandmaster of the Jedi Order
  • Weapon of Choice — Green Bladed Lightsaber
  • Age when he passed into the Force — 900+
  • Current Status — Force Ghost

Spock:

  • Species — Vulcan
  • Philosophy — Logic before Emotions
  • Rank — Captain in the Federation
  • Weapon of Choice — Phaser pistol
  • Age — 155
  • Current Status — Ambassador

Winner: Yoda. All due respect to Spock, he just cannot compare to a tiny green alien that can more than hold his own with the Dark Lord of the Sith — turning Force Lightning back with his hands — and then staying alive long enough to train the next generation of Jedi, Luke Skywalker. Won, he has.
