Your average Star Wars fan will probably believe that the Emperor's royal guards were pretty lame. This is mostly because they were immediately knocked out by Yoda in the Revenge of the Sith. However, Star Wars super fans know that Royal Gurards were incredibly skilled, probably about as powerful as a lower-level Jedi. The deleted scenes version of the Palpatine vs Yoda fight certainly gives them a far less lame send off. After Yoda confronts Palpatine, the Emperor rises and shoots out two devastating bolts of force lightning. However, instead of blocking it using Tutaminis, Yoda force pulls both guards into the lightning. A good 5 or 6 seconds go by as the Royal guards are electrocuted by the Emperor. Although it would have been very brutal, I think it would have been a cooler send off for these two royal guards, but what do you think? Tell me in the comments.
