That doesn’t necessarily mean the game itself isn’t balanced.

Good point

tic tac toe is pretty balanced.

It's a solved game, with an unquestionable best strategy. It isn't.

Actually chess is not that balanced, white has a pretty significant advantage

Actually, chess is pretty balanced, but white has a minor advantage.

Actually, chess also admits a win-or-draw strategy. We just haven't found it yet ?

unlike xwing btw, since xwing contains hidden info and isnt symmetrical.

It's not minor. Most chess grandmasters have higher (about 10-15% higher) win rates with white. Past a certain level, there would be zero reason to choose black if it wasn't forced on you by tournament structures.

You sure that is force choke? Look at his hand movement. He does the imaginary pistol thing, not the trademark Vader choke.

Looks like piggy has a heart attack too...

I recently found out connect 4 is actually incredibly balanced! Didn't see that coming did you ? The starting player doesn't have a advantage either as you can play on top of yellow (or at least my level of play)

Has anything been confirmed when Luke performed? As that's a good point Luke could have tightened lots of parts of the body which make it difficult to breath and thus y the guard held his neck. It could of been 1 step higher then Vader and stopped all red blood cells from moving so oxygen can't get pumped around the body (I think that's how it works)

Until recently I thought he was doing something to their hearts too. It hadn’t occurred to me until someone mentioned it on here a couple years ago that it was a force choke, but once I thought about it I think that makes more sense and it’s just the comically thick rubber costumes that make it look otherwise.

Luke goes crazy on piggy’s memechlorians, that’s the only safe bet here.

He could be doing a brutal heart massage or have a stranglehold of „sensitive body parts“ I mean no idea where piggy has all his organs sitting ?

Was talking about it with my brother and apparently it says in a cannon book it was force choke

Yup. RotJ Luke was not so much treading the fine line between light side and dark as leaping right over it before being punted back by Vader's redemption arc.

Which is why watching AotC and RotS in between ESB and RotJ works so well.
