It just goes to show much powerful Mace and Yoda were. Here Sidious isn't even trying with them. It's badass.

@@GreenFalcon926 True. Though he was defeated by Mace (even though I think that was intentional).

After all that grueling training Plagueis put him through, he better be the best.

@@Swissswoosher i like to think it was just a lucky accident, as Palpatine had a lot of them lol. Really he makes extremely complex plans that are usually hinged upon an R2 unit or a whiny emo dude xD

@@Dino-god69 to be fair, Anakin was a traumatised teen. Teens are usually quite whiny lol.

Yeah never noticed it till now, he goes into form 3

OMG!! Never noticed that, that is so interesting.

THAT SHIT WONT WORK ON DARTH SIDIOUS LMFAO 😂😂😂

@@fafishing3280 To be fair, nothing Maul could throw it him would work on Darth Sidious.

Bro and sidious literally killed savage looking maul directly in the eyes just as maul did to obi-wan when he killed qui-gon

He considers lightsaber dueling so demeaning as its a value of the Jedi yet he's so good at it his logic his is that when fighting a Jedi he'll stoop down to their level to kick their asses

Yea it’s a primary reason he used the tactics he did. The Jedi were obsessed with meeting their enemies on the field of honourable combat, blade in hand. Sidious truly despised such things and came up with a plan that made their fighting abilities absolutely pointless. At least if he met their martial strength and won it would be at least a fight. He held it so below him he didn’t even bother to engage them. He created a huge trap for them to blunder into with duplicitous political genius. The exact kind of insidious stuff the Jedi think themselves above, and yet Sidious used it to defeat them. His entire plan really shows his disdain for the Jedi way of horrible combat and using crude lightsabers. He only bothers to do it to mock the Jedi, he laughs while doing it because he’s like “Hey look, I’m doing your stupid tricks even better than you are!” I do love Sidious and how his actions reflect his personality and ideology.

he defenitely should have lost the fight.

@@m3rkbullw0rm48 who?

@@Gachmara palpatine no doubt about it. but pre established movies ruin the fights

@@m3rkbullw0rm48 Are you saying Palpatine should have lost to them?

@@elijahamores yes

Perfect description. My favorite fighting style

I don't think they were a problem. It was more personal and about pride. Maul and Savage were going around pretending to be Sith Lords. Sidious was the true Lord of the Sith, and there can only be 2. He couldn't let the name Sith be represented by a failed weakling. I think if Maul and Savage would have not called themselves Sith, Palpatine wouldn't have cared.

@@rayloc420 the had an entire criminal empire and mandlore, tho the show only really focused on madalore, this threatened plaps plan, so he went to deal with it himself

@@FFangsYt A criminal empire in a huge galaxy. The Empire could have wiped them out like nothing. They were a menace, but i dont think that big of a deal, especially since criminal empires already existed. Upon the confrontation, Sidious only mentions the Sith issues. He's a rival. There can only be 2. These are absolute. He upholds these truths by taking them out. His laughing the whole time is a display of his dominance as the true Lord of the Sith. imo

@@rayloc420 it was a crime syndicate, it was made up of hurts, mandos, pikes, and many more. It was incredibly powerful, and would have caused problems in the outer rim. This is to the extent of what I know tho, go research more yourself.

@@rayloc420 They were too powerful to send dooku to deal with so he went to deal with it knowing he was more than capable also Mauls plans jeopardised palps since he wanted Kenobi dead and if he killed him Anakin would come for revenge and he couldn’t risk that so although yes maul and savages power and their criminal empire were an issue it was the possibility of Anakin death which was the main issue

He brought back all that childhood abuse trauma.

@@Daron7181 I love how they used a darth vader line!!

In the words of the Grand Inquisitor, “There are things far more frightening than death!”

Especially because Sidious knows that by letting Maul do that he is letting Maul become more powerful. Sidious is the most knowledgable Dark Sider alive, he knows that the pain and rage Maul will feel from watching/feeling his brother die will channel into the Dark Side and make Maul more powerful. Yet he doesn’t care, in fact he stands there and laughs at and mocks Maul, goading him even further. It’s a true demonstration that Sidious is truly so above Maul that he is deliberately pushing Maul into unleashing everything he has and is demonstrating “even the best you have is unequal to my passive effort” before just slamming him into the ground. A true power play.

Everyone who uses form 7 needs to know mastery of all other forms, since Juyo Is a amalgamation of the 5 other lightsaber forms (Niman not included, since it's already a hybrid form). What makes Juyo so powerful, is that the user can keep drawing on the darkside to gain stamina and speed. The funny thing is, I don't think Sidious is using Juyo at all in this duel. It looks like he's exclusively using Makashii in it's Jar Kai configuration

​@@m_rubenHenis using it but his fighting style is just very agile and aerobic so it looks different

@@assadarlingtoni The opening stance Sidious does in this duel is actually the Makashi flourish. His lightsaber moves, and even the way he moves his body are flowing and elegant (very reminiscent of Makashi). While Juyo is grounded and straight to the point. In the other duels, like with Sidious against Yoda or Mace Windu, you can clearly tell he’s using Juyo. But in this duel Sidious is toying with Maul and Savage.

@@m_ruben honestly for me it seems more agile and chaotic than elegant. It seems more like Ataru, opening seems Makashi yes

Or how about the greatest villain of all time.

Only Family?? Maul still had Mother Talzin left at that time Savage died.

@@GRIMLOCK07 well only at the time since, grievous killed her later on from what i remember

@@comradedogo Yeah, that's why I used the words *"at that time"* in my previous statement.

Pure Evil Complete Monster in a nutshell

The only time maul is ever afraid is when sidious is involved. Makes sense

The Ahsoka vs Maul fight was truly the worst of the entire series imo

@@suckmymiddlefinger4350 it wasn’t that bad it was a pretty good fight

@@suckmymiddlefinger4350 What? Why?

Incorrect​@@suckmymiddlefinger4350

@@suckmymiddlefinger4350It was good, but Maul was holding back and paranoid while Ahsoka had some plot armour.

Exactly what i am trying to say to those who dont know how powerfull he is. His force is enough to kill sith lords…

dude yoda kicked his ass twice wtf are you smoking

@@m3rkbullw0rm48 They only fought once.

@@vietcongwarlord6931 twice.

@@m3rkbullw0rm48 No. I'm right and your wrong. They fought once.

True , it does belong to palpatine here but since he has the might of the empire behind him later on he subjugates mandalore by bombing it instead. For him its just another worthless relic with no true value to the sith as he sees it.

@Chief Millard Johnson good name though 😄

No, because they didn't wager the darksaber beforehand. You can lose a battle and still be the rightful wielder, so long as that battle was not FOR the right to rule Mandalore.

@@prestonjones1653 i don’t think moff gideon wagered the darksaber to mando did he? he just explains it’s significance. mando even said he didn’t want it but he’s still the rightful owner right? or is gideon?

@@captainkenway6571 Well we do see the Darksaber resisting Mando, so maybe it is rightfully Gideon's, or maybe the rule doesn't apply to non-Mandalorians.

If Dooku could beat Anakin and Obi Wan and beat Asajj Ventress and the Night Sisters in lightsaber combat, he shouldn't have any problem with Maul and Opress. Enough said.

@@wiiliamhamilton147 so why didn’t palpatine just send Dooku to do it

@@jacksonyon5276 Why would Palpatine send Dooku to do something that he could do himself?

@@wiiliamhamilton147 well then he’d just be doing everything wouldn’t he?

@@jacksonyon5276 I've got news for you, Palpatine has done it all, hasn't he?

I’m a firm believer that he lost to mace on purpose to sway Anakin

@@isilencer8877 but its cânon that He lost in The saber duel He was overpowered by windu i dont know the rest was a act like after windu block his lightning strikes but in The saber duel windu def owned him

@@arthurnikiforck7954 windu has vaapad form to defeat siths…. In duel mace wins but overall with the force palpatine destroyes mace

@@isilencer8877 Yeah, I used to believe that, but Lucas DID say he actually lost to Windu, but it worked perfectly. In reality, Sidious was kind of expecting either a "good" Anakin that followed the Jedi or the one he wanted. The Sith

I mean he is one of the members of the Jedi Council for a reason.

Yeah that’s exactly what Maul is asking for, a cleans warrior’s death. That is what mercy is here. Maul knows that Sidious is a true sadist who enjoys torture and cruelty. He knows that living means being under Sidious’s care. He is pleading for Sidious to just kill him then and there. Sidious responds with torture instead, showing what is in store for Maul. Truly horrifying!

I think the reason he laughs with Yoda is just the joyous feeling of victory. Plus the mockery of Yoda. He is laughing because he knows that Yoda has already lost, him trying to fight Sidious is pointless and the fact Yoda is still trying makes Sidious laugh. The Jedi have already been killed, Sidious is already in control. Anakin is already turned. Even if Yoda won the Empire still would have risen with Anakin as emperor instead.

Monsters?? Yeah right, and Darth Sidious is Freakin' Saint. I bet Sidious Kill Count (directly & indirectly) is ridiculously higher than Maul's & Savage's Kill Count Combined.

@@GRIMLOCK07 yeah sidious is pure evil and one with the dark side… but savage and maul look like monsters😂

@@huhad8276Look like Monsters?? I'm sure to their own species they look perfectly normal. You're opinion is from a certain point of view.

@@GRIMLOCK07 Sidious is a saint he even gave job to invalide with asthma. He destroyed the rebel terrorists tried atleast and got rid off the war criminals.

@@GRIMLOCK07 At least with Maul, his tattoos are not Nightbrother tattoos like how his species has, they are Sith tattoos, almost demonic, and they were painfully applied by Palpatine himself to Maul. Combined with the red eyes and horns, it does make him look like a demon, hence why the other guy called him a monster. Savage is a hulking brute, and his horns and tattoos only add to his menacing look.

Also, before doing that he casually sheathed both sabers and started side stepping Savages swings before nonchalantly reactivating them. He had complete control over that interaction.

1:53 me too

Bad writing and plot armor… the most powerfull sith being killed by a girl with no training

The Son of Dathomir comic should be made into a 4 part animated limited series.

Technically, Savage's death is Maul's fault. Maul knew Sidious was out there, and Maul knew the RULE OF TWO. Which means his former Master would eventually come looking for him & take care of any loose ends. No Rivals, No Witnesses. It's a Sith Thing & Sith Happens.

True

No chance to do that, he dissarmed him and his durability is good for palpatines age

Fun fact it’s not the actually lightsaber that blocks and redirects the lightning, but the force channeled through the lightsaber… mail would have had to at least match the force output of the lightning to really stop or send it back
