Hmm, Luke's dad was a powerful Jedi and the force was strong in him. To be honest with the prequels I wouldn't see Luke being any sort of match for the older Jedi masters or Sith. Even an old Vader could've beaten Luke easily if he had really wanted to.
In terms of the ninja, one thing that is often overlooked in martial arts is the hierarchical structure of the Japanese arts - a legacy from the early 20th century militarisation of the populace. Often this is at odds with actual physical ability. In martial arts some see it as a continual progression, however, this is at odds with human physical development. I always looked at Snake Eyes as someone who was physically gifted and driven, hence he progressed quicker than other ninja in the clan.
