At least Kit-Fisto had a nice smile!

Yarel Poof is definitely useless. It took him 13 years to get the pizzas.

Wait Anakin wasn’t a master? That’s absurd! How can you be on the Jedi counsel and not be a master?

"They did not have Calamari pizza because the Mon Calamari are people and I did not know that." Yareal Poof is a 100% True Jedi ;)

They contributed to Grievous' light saber collection in his living room.

Wise words of Yarael Poof: "Oh, so it's a Council now?! It's not just the two of you?! What about you, Dogface?! Did you know that now it was a Council?!"

The Jedi Council is the literal definition of the public school desk staff

"Famous non-master Anakin Skywalker." Why you gotta do my boy like that.

its funny how in the Jedi High Council, one of them got an alliance with Jango, another got killed by Jango, and another killed Jango

Yarel Poof contributed a lot, He got the coffee, he submitted the receipts and he picked up the pizza, all while having yet to be reimbursed. His parents are very proud

No matter how powerful of a Jedi master they were, when their plot armor breaks, even a stormtrooper 1000 yards away with an E11 is deadly.

Geetsly: "Non-master Anakin Skywalker" *What? Its outrageous! Its UNFAIR!*

Sucks that we never got to see the other councils on screen.

And yarael poof was always bullied by the council. Poor guy. He sells mac n cheese now on the death star.

Yaddle was rude to Yarel Poof for not letting him use her car.

Puts Coleman Trebor at mostly useless “Now you’ve officially taken it too far buddy!”

According to the Senate, the entire Jedi council was useless.

Plo Koon was definitely a true Jedi. He and Anakin were the only two Jedi to apologize to Ahsoka and say it was their fault instead of the will of the force

“One thing I never realized during the clone wars was the fact that the Jedi participated in the mass control of information. While the thought of this is regrettable, it seems that this is standard practice in galactic statecraft, especially during (the Imperial) era. If you asked me back then, the approach some masters had to leading were better than others. “ -CS/CT-8711-12 “Cheng”, Captain and Scout of the 442nd Siege Battalion

I remember when Coleman Trebor died. The Galaxy felt darker and time stood still. I think everyone remembers where they were when they saw it happen. I was in that annoying movie theater seat that squeaks too much. And his body falling that great height from the stadium balcony. So haunting. I miss you Coleman. The Galaxy misses you. It’s no coincidence the Republic fell just a few years after Coleman died. He was the Caesar. The green guardian. Savior of the republic

Plo Koon is the optimus prime of star wars change my mind.

Literally didn’t know Yarael poof’s name until now, tbh I’ve always just called him Jedi Master Ogway for obvious reasons And that, was no accident

9:35 Funny thing about Coleman Kcaj is he was one of the council members from Episode 3 to survive the purge as his name showed up in a Vader Comic in a list of survivors. Hes still technically alive in canon

Not just the Colmen but the Colwimmen and the Colchildren too

Imagine getting pizza for everyone and getting called useless on top of it.

I've always found it weird that Coleman Kcaj had no backstory whatsoever, which is pretty unusual for Star Wars

"Fear leads to anger and anger leads to never letting anyone else talk!"

When you mentioned Yarel Poof I had to go back and watch Robot Chicken 😂.

Nobody: 👄 Jedi in the thumbnail: 👁 👁

Evan Peel gave his life defending secret hyperspace lanes that led to the hearts of the Republic and Separatist home worlds. I think he deserves a rethink. He was a True Jedi for sure.

"The Jedi Code forbids attachments. I cared for them but I tried to remain unattached. It was always…difficult." Ki-Adi-Mundi speaking about his family

shoutout to Coleman Kcaj for having literally no details about him yet canonically surviving order 66

“Great, I’m one of 12 of the strongest Jedi in the galaxy, and it’s my turn to get the pizza. My parents, they are very proud”

you can also become true Jedi by collecting all the coins

I just a simple man making my way through the comments

Robot Chicken Yarel Poof put it best: "Oh, there's a council is there? Are we sure it's not just you two? Hello...is anyone realizing I'm talking?"

Side stories of council members aside, I always found the decision making in the High Council rather funny. For most of the prequel movies, Yoda simply takes a quick look at Mace Windu and sometimes Ki Adi Mundi and then announces the "council" decision. And then there is the famous dialogue at the end of Phantom Menace where Yoda first tells Obi Wan that the council does not allow him to take Anakin as a Padawan but when he learns that to honour Qui Gon's wish, Obi Wan is ready to teach him anyway, he says that the "council" approves it then (without discussing it with anyone).

Are we gonna just ignore the fact that the Jedi had enough washouts to require fully a quarter of the upper leadership organs be devoted to dealing with them?

I love how you used the true jedi ranking from the Lego games.

"Contrary to what Robot Chicken might have you believe..." I was thinking the exact same thing lol

My favourite Jedi by far, no matter what all the others might have been or have accomplished, is definitely Roron Corobb. Not only was he an Ithorian, who are arguably the most likeable and kind-hearted Star Wars race i ever had the chance to meet in KOTOR, but he demonstrated his awesomeness by doing one of the most chad and alien thing i've ever witnessed: repelling Grievous by tearing an entire corridor purely with his voice, while otherwise being completely silent (and funny by re-pressing that button, irradiating the meaning of "Are you being serious, elevator? You're gonna choose "this" moment to be slow?!").

That's not fair, the alien with the really long neck taught obi wan the power of the high ground

I’ve always loved yaddle. She’s an underrated Jedi master.

Saesee Tiin’s easily my favorite out of the bunch. He’s an introverted starship loving nice guy who always does the right thing whenever he can, if that ain’t relatable then I don’t know what is.

6:58 "I will save my family." "Gary?!"

5:30 so, in Australia, when the call out _"what a poof!"_ , they are congratulating you on your noble sacrifices? wow. that changes a lot of my childhood. like a LOT.

"DID YOU HAVE TO MENTION THE NON MASTER PART" - anakin after watching this

"You are on this council, but we do not grant you the rank of master." -Mace Windu, foolishly

As a kid I always thought Poof was a Kaminoan and wondered why Obi-wan didn’t ask him where Kamino is

It’s badass to hear that Anakin was on the High Council. He was destined for greatness

Yarel was a true jedi!. he was the only council member who didn’t blindly follow yoda and mace windo and as punishment for that they sent him on a 13 year long pizza chase

I wouldn’t say useless that’s harsh I’d say they put there skills into something else other than war because it seems that’s why you basing there actions off of.

I can answer that title question: They were absolutely useless Take the Clone Wars for example

I'd argue peels intelligents mission with tarkin gain the republic secret hyperspace routes that lead to the outer rim sieges

Coleman Kjac has mastered the force in such a way that he’s invisible “I’ve mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still that I become invisible to the eye.”

No, I never thought that they were "useless" due to their never being shown doing anything. Even as a kid, I simply knew that not everything could fit into a film, and therefore given stories always focus on certain characters only, plus I also already knew that any galaxy is a tremendously humungous place and we simply cannot see everything that transpires therein and who all engages in those countless individual events.

Don't you dare ever call our lord Coleman Kcaj useless again

Poor Yarel Poof just wanted to drive yaddle’s car to get the pizza faster

Fun fact: you bite up, not down because your top jaw doesn’t move

I’d imagine that most of Yaddle’s lore is still cannon, the only thing changing being her death, with the release of Tales of the Jedi

Well, for being a video of "how useless" they were, in general they were pretty much the contrary. Instead, their biggest general flaw could be their dogmatic ways.

of course, yarael perfected mind manipulation how else did he get a job as a chef in the empire

Shaak Ti is actually my favorite Jedi Master because I loved her in the 2003 _Clone Wars_ microseries by Genndy Tartakovsky.

Tiin was the only person on the Jedi council who wasn't a true jedi. His importance on the council was often questioned by other jedi as he never took on a padawan. A true jedi is supposed to pass on what they have learned instead tiin ignored one of the basic expections. He often times was very closed minded especially in the case of quinlan vos.

Evan Piel sacrificed his life for the hyperspace routes. Wtf he was my bro.

To quote Reti4 on why Coleman Trebor was put on the High Council, “Yarael Poof was dead by this point, so they needed someone new to get the pizza!” And now I realize the double meaning behind him bringing up pizza specifically….

I could listen to you talk about anything but it being starwars just makes it that much better 😌

Man, much of these guys seem to be way more remarkable and likeable than that pointy head sociopath of Ki Adi Mundi.

its so sad how when mace windu told anakin to stay in the jedi temple he was gonna make him a master for the information about palpatine when he returned, but we all know what happened.

How useless was the *entire* Council? The main reason that Palpatine was able to outsmart them all was because they were so rigidly conservative about their often irrational rules that it was easy for him to anticipate their reactions to the various stages of his plan. At the same time, they were so narrow-minded that they couldn't see the ramifications of what was happening around them because they were too busy trying to figure out how it all fit into the status quo they were so desperate to maintain. Obi-Wan claimed in ANH that they were the guardians of "truth and justice" in the Old Republic. But that is not what we see from them. Instead, they were just guardians of a broken system and cared more about maintaining their position in the Republic's government than with actually helping anybody.

This is one of my favorite KZfaq channels, mainly because of the endless prequel lore. Keep it up!

So glad you’re still actively making these videos.. they really come in clutch. At this point just your voice gives me nostalgia lol.

“And so for that, we add Yaddle to the list of BASED Jedi...”

Piell did have a bit of a back story tho, as it was told in the comic Emissaries to Malastare.

first video i’ve seen of yours and the og battlefront intro stopped me in my tracks what a clever thing to use 👌🏻

Well one of them had to grab pizza.

Hat leads to anger and anger leads to- NEVER LETTING ANYONE ELSE TALK!

Nice use of the True Jedi achievement from the Lego Star Wars games. Also, nice Robot Chicken reference, that skit was actually how I first learned who Yurrle Poof was. Lastly, it's nice to know that most of the Council was either good people or just Useless(neutral) instead of being callous jerks like Ki-Aid-Mundi. Also, makes me wonder where the rest of the Jedi that were already discussed fall into that category. Obi-Wan, Plo Koon, and Yoda obviously get True Jedi. Shaak Ti despite all her good intentions does have a lot of failures under her belt, including what happened with Fives so she probably gets the Useless category. The same goes for Mace, again despite his good intentions he has caused some major problems with his bullheadedness. Mundi obviously gets outright Terrible Jedi with everything you taught us about him. That just leaves Anakin, Kit Fisto, and Depa Balga. Now I saw Fisto do some good stuff in the Clone Wars TV series and even heard about one or two instances from Legends about his goodness, so I'd give him True Jedi, but he might be Useless I'm not 100%. As for Anakin and Depa, there a tough case. Anakin did fall to the Dark Side, but before that, he was a really good and helpful guy so weighing both his good and bad together I'd place him in the Neutral or Useless category. As for Depa, that depends on what version were discussing. Legends went evil so I'd think she'd be classified as a Terrible Jedi, but canon did a lot of good while teaching Kanen so I'd imagined her as a True Jedi. Like with Anakin I say we split the difference and just make her Useless.

Honestly I would love to see longer videos on every single Jedi you mentioned here.

Interesting Question, On a scale of 1 - Jar Jar Binks, They score a Jar jar.

Definitely have to argue with the Coleman Trebor section, yes he failed but he single handedly got the closest to assassinating Darth Tyranus. In before people say Anakin Skywalker. Read my comment back, I said single handedly. Anakin started the encounter with Obi-Wan Kenobi by his side and also potentially had help from Chancellor Palpetine (even though that is still unconfirmed).

Hey! Yareal Poof got the pizza🍕 ! That has to count for something.

3:25 it is so rare to see images from this era of star wars. Pre AOTC. I'm impressed you managed to dig it up

3:24 Remember when red lightsabers simply meant a synthetic crystal, not pure eeeevil?

At least Pong Krell was never on the council. Got to count for something.

I had quite a crush on Agen Kolar when i was younger and was reading Republic, so yes please try to find more about him!

I never knew I needed this video

These guys had such good stories that disney changed to legends

2:36 You just had to rub in the fact that Anakin is a "non-master," didn't you? Don't be surprised if you're on his hit list now.

The introduction music from Star Wars battlefront one scared the shit out of me give me crazy PTSD early 2000s man

My dad used to refer to Yarael Poof, the Jedi Master at the left of the thumbnail, as "The Highlander's dream come true,"!

I'm going to go ahead and call Even Piell "Dobby Wan Kenobi"

The ones that did survive order 66 like master Rancisis, Coleman Kcaj and Maybe even Yaddle are the ones I only care about because they become members of the New Jedi High Council in my canon

It’s weird that in the Jedi council scenes the projected images are all sitting on a chair the exact same shape as the one they are projected over

The fact you referenced robot chicken is hilarious and I was hoping that you were going to do that too lol.

Coleman Kcaj basically the guy in the group project who never did any work and just showed up 😂 He also is still alive, which is weird considering that nearlry all Jedi got deaths or an elaborate survival story...he kinda was just like.... Imma head out and was never heard from again 😂 I've always loved him for that reason

0:11 “maintains the supremacy of the light side and thus the balance of the force” idk being supreme means the same as being equal and balanced to another

Thank you for the good rating Geetsly's and may the force be with you.

That intro sound and zooming in though, ah the memories

How dare you even propose the idea that Yarael Poof is useless he is the Goat of the Jedi council
