'What if Dooku Survived?' Dooku's head goes floating around with a Rebel Group. "I am the 'head' of this resistance!" 🤣

Dooku: Skywalker has become a sith? Luke: No I didn't, I'm gonna be a jedi like my father before me! Dooku: You're the son of Anakin? I hope you dont mind me calling you a son of a bitch.

Darth Vader: My powers have tripled since we've last met, Count. Dooku: Good! Thrice the pride, thrice the fall!

I guarantee Dooku would have said "Do you believe me now, Kenobi?"

Finally, a rebellion I can get behind, led by an aristocratic British sounding nobleman. This is like Bonnie Prince Charlie and the ‘45.

Dooku in AotC: "The Republic is being ruled over by a Sith Lord, and is oppressing its own citizens to further enrich a handful of wealthy corporations. I'm funding an army to rebel against the Republic and establish something better. Join me and we can change the galaxy for the better!" Kenobi: "I don't believe you." Dooku after RotS: "The Republic got taken over by the Sith Lord I told you was in charge, and is now the Empire, which is objectively worse than the Republic was in every way, shape, and form. I'm funding an army to help the already established rebellion against the Empire so we can put a new Republic in place. Join me and we can change the galaxy for the better!" Kenobi: "... If I asked Bail, would he vouch for you?" Dooku: "He's the one that sent me to save your sorry behind."

I could just imagine Qui Gon getting quite annoyed at yet another person, his own master no less, surviving yet another stab wound to the chest...

I suggested this a while back, and honestly it went really well. Dooku's entire fall to the dark was because he wanted to remove the corrupt Republic and help the people of the Republic. In his mind, ripping the entire thing out and forming a new order became the only way. So Dooku living to see what the "new order" became would definitely make him realize the full extent of his folly. I could imagine Yaddle's words echoing in his mind.

If Darth maul can survive getting cut in half and falling down a reactor shaft out of pure spite. I think dooku could do a similar thing with just being stabbed.

What if Sidious was a *split personality* from Palpatine. Aka, what if Palpatine *didnt know* he was Sidious?

This is like an alternate reality where Dooku was the real chosen one, very interesting

This actually makes sense. Since the original Chosen One failed, the light woul act in haste to push Dooku to claim the mantle of the Chosen one (something that Dooku believed he always was).

At this point, Disney has nerfed lightsabers so much I wouldn't be surprised if "somehow Dooku returned."

you know sh!ts bad when dooku allows the use of cybernetics

I love the implication that dooku surviving makes reeva die to her fatal lightsaber wound

Always good to see Dooku redeem himself. Good story 👏

I love this. Dooku's redemption is great.

18:36 missed opportunity to say "signature look of superiority"

Loved it. I wish we had more of the Galactic civil war after Palpatine here. This is the Dooku I wanted. I think the galaxy would consider him a hero because of his public image

Thanks. Nice to see Dooku redeemed. He’s my favourite Star Wars character

So Dooku when he's pushing age 100.

Dooku being this way, I can imagine Yoda would be proud of him.

Count Dooku… the main protagonist of Star Wars.

What if Thrawn joined the Rebellion? What if The Grand Inquisitor turned back to the light?

Alternative take on Dooku's near death experience; Anakin just braining him with the butt of his lightsaber

About Dooku being accepted... Dooku could just say that he has returned to continue his business from Clone Wars - defeat the Sith. Add here that he still used Droids to prove his point...

This man doesn’t miss🙏🏻 I also appreciate you addressing Dooku’s thoughts on having 2 prosthetic hands.

What If Obi Wan Refused To Train Anakin

these events would have been completely horrifying to Dooku hands and off and all wow i love Dooku his character development but Dooku did the right thing awesomness

-What if Palpatine wanted to keep Dooku as his apprentice Instead of replacing him with anakin Skywalker

He in a head tank on a robo body like Nixon in Futurama

Dooku, in a Rebellion led by those who were Republic Loyalists who fought AGAINST him for the ENTIRE Clone Wars? Nah, I don't see it. He'd be viewed as an enemy by both sides.

6:56 👏SPACE👏 LENIN👏 SPACE 👏LENIN 👏SPACE 👏LENIN👏 SPACE👏 LENIN👏

Absolutely loved this! Dooku was such an under-used character! Hands down, one of my favourites!

What if darth vader was smart and used his brain instead of his strength against his enemies and foes.

Now I wanna see a video of Dooku, Grievous, Maul, and last but not least Ventress. That they form a temporary alliance to seek revenge on Sidous for his betrayal. And a bonus if this can work, they all somehow in some form, join the Rebellion against the Empire by becoming leaders and generals.

If Christopher Lee was still alive. Maybe we would have gotten more of Count Dooku live action. But again, Christopher Lee was very old that even in his last Star Wars appearance.

If I had to change one thing, it would have been Dooku and Yoda reuniting. Other than that, great story! Day 88 of my list. What if; Anakin never gave into his feelings for Padme (Pentre Patrol did his version), Aayla Secura was the chosen one and became Darth Talon, Shme Skywalker was adopted by the Tusken Raiders, Boba Fett saved his Tusken family, Count Dooku was a regular count for the CIS, Jabba the Hutt supported the Jedi at the Start of the Clone Wars, and finally, what if Sabine and Ezra fell in love?

What if anakin trained padme to feel the force like ahsoka did sabine so they could grow closer as a couple.

Day 8: What if Jaesa Willsaam (light side) was in the Clone Wars? The idea is that shortly after Jaesa is recruited by the Sith Warrior, Darth Baras realizes the potential threat. He manages to capture her and freeze her in carbonite. After Darth Baras dies, Jaesa is never found and is eventually forgotten for the next 3000 years. Then, during the Battle of Christophsis, a tunnel to an ancient under city is discovered. Obi-Wan leads a squad of clones into the under city in order to gain a tactical advantage over the separatists. While here, the force leads him to a long forgotten prison. He finds Jaesa here and frees her. Shortly thereafter Jaesa rejoins the Jedi and becomes Obi-Wan's apprentice.

"Somehow.... Dooku survived"

Oh ! You made Dooku do a reverse Atris. He slowly turned back to the light side.

He had a hand in helping the clone army it wouldn't be far fetched that he could live on as a clone, Palpatine did it.

Truly one of the best ones you made.

Very good idea, I especially loved the sentence "I am more alive than you" to Vader, that's some awesome deep storytelling! The end however is a bit unrealistic, because I don't think a at that point very old Dooku can beat Palpatine, even together with Obi Wan it would be tough as hell!

You could do another version of this and have dooku redeem vader

What if a force user from another galaxy was able to convince the jedi to secretly remove the control chips?

What if yoda had bad relations with the wookies What if ahsoka killed barris after it was revealed that she framed her What if Leia joined the sith in a new hope What if Palpatine actually learned everything Plagueis knew before killing him in his sleep What if Dooku programmed the inhibitor chips in a way that Order 66 would additionally activate Order 65 and vice versa

What if bail had dooku train leia? A skilled politician and one of the greatest jedi masters!

Maybe a what if Count Dooku found anakin instead of qui gon and Obi wan (with anakin joining the separatists)

A redeemed gray jedi dooku would be cool.

They would make him a historic figure about trying to break something. The system and then fixing it. So people who break something and then fix it. In that time I would probably be called pulling a dooko

I think it would've been even better if Bail told obiwan that dooku was alive and they both trarined luke then all three of them went with Yoda to fight sidiuos.

THIS MAN NEEDS TO BE A DIRECTOR FOR ALTERNATE STAR WARS UNIVERSE

What if a junker after the battle of courascant, found salvage around the invisible hand. Then they find Darth Tyrannus’ lightsaber. Little did they know Dooku placed is essence into his curved saber. Let the calamity ensue.

Nice to see Dooku get a redemption story.

Better than I hoped

Wished there was more surviving Jedi like Yoda showing up in this story.

I’m so glad I found this channel. These are always fun “what-ifs” that help me relax when I’m stressed

If that Sabine chick can survive a lightsaber to the chest then Dooku could too.

Nice story. I think A different story with the same starting point could also lead into Dooku becoming somewhat like Kreia, having witnessed both sides of the force and seeing both failing. After all, he like Kreia left the jedi order not because of temptation but by reason, growing disillusioned. Or maybe a story where he, viewing it as third way, goes in to hiding to study the sorcery of Dathomir; during this, meeting again Maul.

That was really good. You have a really good grasp on these "What If" style stories!

Thank you for the story! Any what if has to take into account a change from what happens in canon, so I found it easily acceptable the change from head cut off to stab in the chest. From there, the story could progress naturally. In this case, taking time to heal to explain Dooku's absence, like Hera giving birth to explain why she wasn't flying against the first Deathstar attack. I am really, really, glad you included the droid army/fleet into the story. Only one other author, so far, has the droid army fight on the side of the rebellion and I love that story, so this one, although not central, was a very nice treat. Thank you for it.

What an Excellent Video Based on What if Dooku Survived. Can you please create a part2 of What If Dooku Survived and Joined the Rebellion?

That is actually really close to what i asked you to do.great video mate

This is honestly my new favorite, such a unique piece. Thank you ❤

What if Luke Skywalker was trained by Count Dooku?

This is by far one of your best ones.

Dooku would destroy Vader in a light saber fight

Sick

This is basically if disney do the prequels.

Loved this one, its a cool redemption arc. This was probably my favorite video you've done to date. Although I was sad Dooku never reunited with Yoda. It would've been awesome seeing Yoda and Dooku stroll into Sidious' office and slap him around. Still, this ending is also good, Dooku fully giving himself to the light and overcoming the odds. Plus Its also kind of funny just imagining Yoda chilling in his swamp wondering what the heck's going on out there.

I’m excited for TOTE but I’m also a little worried it might be cameo-fest for an episode or two.

I like that this has the only 2 people to beat Vader/Anakin teaming up

Nicely done! Stillll need my what if Wolf pack resisted order 66 because of they’re loyalty and love for Ploo Koon

what if palpatine told the senate he was sidious when he was elected (not illegal by the time of the prequels) what if anakin used sith lightning throughout the clone wars what if gungi stayed with the bad batch what if caleb joined the bad batch when his master died what if caleb survived the fire on lothal what if anakin blocked windu’s strike instead of cutting off his hand what if ahsoka got to coruscant with maul before mace windu left for the chancellors office

Dooku should have used the force on the innocent Republic pilot, making him forget everything. And Vader the betrayer, the youngling-killer? I don't think Dooku would grant him a fair fight. Surprise attack with lightning from behind, then take his head right off. He died, never having seen the face of his executioner.

I love this video😊❤

I LOVED the drop of the line from the ROTS Novel when Dooku did die. GENIUS. It to is one of my favorite Star Wars novels. I would love for them to revamp the 6 Novels of the classic films to better lineup with the current cannon!

awesome story one of my favorite story ever about dooku thanks again my friend !

Amazing video! I’m surprised you haven’t grown more

And then somehow palpatine returned

Well done brother, I look forward to one day reading your long form work.

You should do what if anakin learned to fight with one hand instead of making a new one, since dooku thought it would’ve made anakin more of a gentlemen

Separatist Worlds did see Dooku as a War hero, so he most likely would have rallied even more confederates to the cause.

If Dooku survived I feel he would become like Maul, but more dangerous.

I liked hearing this story, thanks for telling it.

Dooku should have learn how to fight with something else since he lost his hands what a coward

Ah yes - me after surviving decapitation..

Honestly? I can buy this Lightsaber stab wound being survivable for one reason and one reason only. The others we've seen get stabbed so far have been novices in the ways of the Force, or far from help, or just a Jedi, whose ways don't teach how to say no to the will of the Force, like Qui-Gon. Dooku however is a Sith, and there is precedent of Sith surviving far worse injuries. Darth Sion from the Old Republic famously kept himself alive through sheer rage and refusal to die. He got stabbed, he got sliced, he was on the verge of falling apart, but he just DIDN'T, because of the unnatural power of the Dark side. Dooku is an experienced Force user and had been a Sith for over 10 years, I can believe him surviving this.

I'd find this scenario hard to swallow if Disney hadn't shown several characters surviving torso stabs. In Reva's case, two.

Yeessss thank you ive asked pente patrol and starwars quil for this but got nothing back from them so thank you for this

What if Darth Vader was honest and attempted to destroy the Emperor with Starkiller instead of betraying him

I feel some people who focus on Dooku’s quote in Attack of the Clones forget that he’s been on Palpatine’s plan. He’s behind the inhibitor chips, he chose Jango Fett to be cloned, he’s killed Jedi who could interfere in the plan, he intentionally has the Separatist Military build superweapons and commit war crimes, and helped Palpatine gain power such as when he villanized Rush Clovis so Palpatine could nationalize the Banking Clan or when he had Grievous send droids to attack Coruscant and stop the Republic from joining a peace deal with his own Separatists. He’s got no right to say to surviving Jedi that he was right because he’s been directly helping out Palpatine. He hates the corruption of the Republic, but thinks that an authoritarian Sith regime is better for the galaxy. Dooku can’t get validation if he’s a major reason the Empire came to power in the first place. I can see Dooku feeling betrayed by Palpatine and having some misgivings with how the Empire turns out, but he has a lot to repent for by this point and it would simply be a question of what he likes and dislikes about the Empire besides Palpatine.

Cool story!

I say he could have become a reborn jedi who lives long like a sith lord, maybe meet Yoda and Obi-Wan on good terms, it would be cool to see Dooku and Obi-Wan fight Vader as he and Anakin fought Dooku, I liked this

Now that was quite the story!

Just imagine a man usieng the force while having blood flowing out his cut hands or arm

Let's hope bariss survives and meets ahsoka again.

What if Darth Venamis, I believe, had defeated Plagueis and took his place in The Sith Rule of 2
