What If Anakin Skywalker Lost the Podrace?

The Podrace scene in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is one of the most iconic and thrilling moments in the entire saga. It’s the moment when a young Anakin Skywalker, a slave on the desert planet of Tatooine, proves his incredible piloting skills and wins his freedom from the clutches of the evil Watto. However, have you ever stopped to wonder what would have happened if Anakin had lost the Podrace?

First of all, let’s consider the immediate consequences of such a loss. Without winning the race, Anakin would have remained a slave to Watto, continuing to live in poverty and servitude. He would not have had the opportunity to leave Tatooine and become a Jedi, which means that the entire course of Star Wars history would have been altered.

Without Anakin to train as a Jedi, the prophecy of the Chosen One bringing balance to the Force might never have been fulfilled. Anakin’s fall to the dark side, his transformation into Darth Vader, and the subsequent rise of the Galactic Empire may never have come to pass. The events of the original trilogy could have played out very differently without Anakin’s pivotal role.

In addition, without Anakin’s involvement in the Clone Wars, the Jedi Order may have been able to avoid its devastating downfall. Anakin’s betrayal and allegiance to Emperor Palpatine were instrumental in the Emperor’s rise to power and the destruction of the Jedi. Without Anakin’s fall, the Jedi Order may have continued to thrive and the Empire may never have taken control of the galaxy.

Furthermore, without Anakin’s role in shaping the fate of Luke and Leia Skywalker, the Rebel Alliance may have been completely different or may not have even formed at all. Anakin’s connection to both sides of the Force was essential in bringing balance and ultimately led to the downfall of the Sith.

The impact of Anakin losing the Podrace would have reverberated throughout the entire Star Wars universe, drastically altering the course of events. Without Anakin’s influence, the galaxy may have been a vastly different place, with the Emperor’s grip on power remaining unchallenged and the Jedi Order fading into obscurity.

So, while Anakin’s victory in the Podrace was a pivotal moment in Star Wars history, it’s certainly fascinating to speculate on the potential consequences of an alternate outcome. It goes to show that even the smallest events can have far-reaching effects on the fate of the galaxy.

    Wouldn’t Shmi and Anakin have blown up the moment they left the atmosphere? They have bombs in them so that they can’t escape, Anakin states as much in The Phantom Menace.

  2. Kayna Wests

    While it feels weird to say that Dooku could defeat Sidious he 100% can. Dooku is just the better and more experienced duelist while Sidious is the far better force user. If Dooku could neutralize Sidious force edge he could beat him

    SW Outer Rim= Global South on Earth.

  4. Jazz1011

    What if subulba was the chosen one?

  5. RUCKERS01

    Dude, I love all your StarWars what Iff's however you should have called this episode 'Everyone's Dead'!

  6. Joseph Cascio

    What if Anakin and Obi-Wan took on Dooku together in Episode II?

    What IF The Republic Existed In The Outer Rim

    Anakin and his mother would've been freed from Watto without a pod-race gamble, they would have been brought to Coruscant where Anakin would have grown up with his mother. Qui-Gon would have lived and trained Anakin, while Maul would have remained Sidious's apprentice, and Ahsoka would have gone to Obi-Wan instead of Anakin.

    Dooku would not have risen beyond the rank of General for the Separatists, and Grevious would have been a Commander. Anakin's mother would have lived, and Anakin would not have turned to the dark side, thanks to Qui-Gon's training, and would have been more understanding of Fives during the Order 66 Arc of the Clone Wars. This would have led to a full-blown discovery of the plan, shutting it down and executing Palpatine before the massacre against the Jedi.

    Anakin would have been publicly married to Padme throughout the Clone Wars, as he wouldn't have feared the council's opinion due to Qui-Gon's training. They would have had their twins without any complications. Anakin's family would move to Naboo where he raised his children with Padme.

    After Palpatine's execution, the Separatists would not have had their 'All-Knowing-Sith-Leader' to keep the war going. As a result, the Droid Army would inevitably fall, with Commander Grevious going into hiding. General Dooku would have turned himself into the Jedi with remorse for his actions, eventually found guilty of treason, and executed for his crimes. Maul would have gone into hiding but with a vengeance towards Anakin for being responsible for Sidious's downfall.

    What if yaral poof trained Anakin skywalker

  9. Trent Bowie

    I know you get alot suggestions, I always wonder what if Anakin after becoming a Jedi knight he wanted to resurrect the Jedi sentinel class of the order and possibly lead it.

  10. SilverXy7

    This was very different, I enjoyed this one.

  11. Liam D

    What if Vader exposed the weakness of the Death Star and joined the rebels to destroy the empire after discovering his children and realising that Sidious had lied to him?

  12. Nightspawn Son-of-luna

    You know, having just started watching this, I can guarantee it will still probably not end the way the 'anakin losing the podrace' thing usually goes…

    Because you want to keep the video monotized so It probably won't end with Padme being Jabba's new slave girl

  13. Robert L

    What if Anakin and Ahsoka and Starkiller killed Palpatine and destroyed the Empire.

  14. Malcolm Kilby

    New vid idea. What if Luke and leia switched places

  15. Brutal Stuff

    So I do believe that either mace Windu or Windu’s apprentice is what was needed to train Anakin to balance his emotions and either have someone who was either a father figure or one who was motherly. For count Dooku with his yrs of being a Jedi he was and being the best proficient user of form 2 he would’ve killed both Sidious and maul with no issue.

  16. Social Account

    What if Count Dooku joined the CIS, but was not aware of Darth Sidious/Was not "Darth Tyrannus"?

  17.  Reaper the Rapi

    What if Anakin just accepted his dark side attributes and use them.

  18. Masonanimelife

    What if anakin got together with the zangele (im not going to try to correct the name) queen

  19. Redneck Mayo

    What if Crosshair stayed with the bad batch

  20. The Force Dragon

    Hallo! I have a What if idea for one of your videos! If your interested

  21. Hayden Hag

    What if luke and leia were swapped after birth

  22. Chase Brannan

    What if Padme was already married to someone else by the time the Clone Wars started?

  23. Padme Amidala

    What if palpatine never saw Anakin as a potential apprentice?
    But he saw Anakin as a threat and an enemy. So he doesn’t befriended Anakin but wants to kill him
    Or what if Palpatine didn’t believe Anakin was the chosen one so he thought of Anakin just like all the other Jedi’s and didn’t care for him

  24. Dale Buse

    what if yoda trained ezra bridger

  25. JSWEdits

    What if: Anakin, luke and leia were born as triplets they would be brought to the temple and they each had 25k mitaclorians so mace would train ani in force power and raw strength yoda would train luke in agility and speed and leia would have been trained by shaak ti. At the age of. 15-16 luke leia and ani destroy other Palawan’s so then they have to spa each other. So then by the time Dooku comes around they send Luke leia yoda and ani to beat Dooku. And then it’s impossible for palps to corrupt ani so palps will go for leia but Leia turns palps over to mace, then luke, Leia, ani, mace, shaak, and plo moon will go to kill or arrest palps after a couple of years yoda passes leaving luke to become GML. And their could be a part 2 if you wanna make it

  26. R!tz

    what if jango fett took anakin as his son?

  27. Lodada

    What if Luke did not attempt to kill Ben?
    What if Palptine find Rey first?
    What if the darksaber is reforged?

  30. Deadpool Kidro

  31. Ricky Chico

    What if the republic havoc troopers found a warp portal to the clone wars, seeing the clones manny of the republic havoc unit decides to literly adopt clones and train the to fight sith and sith troopers as they did in the old republic wars, after finding out the kaminoans planted chips in the clones heads to betray the republic and most of all the JEDI would the republic havoc unit idle by or fight for the jedi, republic vs republic, old vs new will they survive or replenish by clonning as well
