@@jamesgorman5692 It _was_ canon.

2003 clone wars was the best when it came to making characters like Grievous, Mace and Yoda look like one man armies.

Lejend Dairy - I love my 3D clone wars, but I gotta agree with this. Grievous in the clone wars is a disgrace compared to the 2003 show. Wish they would have shown him beat more Jedi.

I gotta say, I really like the 3D Grievous over the 2003 one. Not sure what does it, because I _want_ to like the 2003 version, but something about the 2008 and live action one...

Well he had no plot armor, but the plot came "through" his armor. ...Or atleast that's what Obi-Wan would say to that.

@@Haggysack2k8 I mean the Jedi had plot armor. He was defeated by padawans for gods sake.

The plot armor was strong with TCW.

Too bad George didn't want his poster-boy, Vader, being replaced.

He was defeated numerous times in increasingly embarrassing ways and then in the end was killed via a tactic that had no right to work, and if it did then someone else should have done it three-years earlier. We only got to see him actually be who he actually was outside the books in the 2d Clone Wars animation for like 10 minutes and that's just sad.

Hey, they tried.

Noek A non force sensitive alien becomes a ruthless leader of a droid army, defeats 13 Jedi in combat, become indirectly the result of many more jedi deaths, gains many victories over the clone wars, all while being kaleesh warrior.

@@korolevpiano7794 i know people are saying he is more powerfull than vader Like bruh vader killed lik 100 jedi lol

Roger Roger

he was fighting a war he was meant to lose, but still almost won

The CIS did have non-droid infantry but sadly only for officers, shock troops and ship crews. If they balanced it out and truly unified the whole military might of their worlds in tangent with the droids then he could make an effective sword and shield tactic with such units. Droids should be the sword and the organics the shield, but also he must alter and switch between the two to keep the Republic off balance then it would be an interesting war following cause when you have different races with their own unique cultures, technology, language and strategy but molded and made as one with each gap covering one another with good coordination then it could work. Whether they could win the war this way I wouldn't say given that Dooku and Sidious ran the the show, but if they weren't there that is another story cause Grievous knows the weaknesses of his droids and while he will use them he will be open to command living breathing warriors and soldiers under his command.

Evan Johnson I don’t reckon almost winning should be under his belt as an accomplishment even though the war was guaranteed to be lost when you consider everything it would be very hard for the cis not to win their advantages were to Great

@@datguy8006 I think a large part of it is general space opera tropes clashing with reality. The former generally has robot armies not be super effective and act like organic ones because that would undermine the drama. It's really hard to get attached to individual pieces of equipment when they're the exact same as the next 2000 that are being pumped off the line. It's also really hard to take into account all the massive changes that a fully robotic army would result it: for starters, morale would go out the window for frontline troops. That takes out a ton of story potential, for stuff on the stress soldiers undergo or the morality of war. Robots wont question orders they think are immoral, they dont suffer psychological trauma like organics and they dont mutiny.

@@elijahbutcher9522 In legends(KOTOR, SWTOR), it is said that the greatest warriors among the Kaleesh become gods in death, and most of their species spent their lifetime seeking worthy foes and adventures to that end, so he was a sort of warrior god acording to their traditions, can't say if this still hold true in the new canon tho

Yes, yes I can imagine it.

If you want a visual of this go check out the video "Grievous 66" very funny

I can see that personal secretary taking lots of hot mugs of java juice to the face. By this point Grievous remembers he doesn’t have a mouth, he just needs to sling scalding, fragile containers at droids heads while tryna work out speed-to-supply ratios and shell tonnage per square meter.

I wish I was his personal secretary 😳

Grievous is the computer Dwight beat in that episode

Got any links to your fanfic? They sound more interesting that the current Disney swill (excluding the Mandalorian show)

Why does Vlad the fucking Impaler know more about an Interesting story than Disney? Whats up with that?

Ok imma turn into god when I get a spin-off guys don’t worry

@NuclearHobo42 Same here we went from a Badass Cyborg that could let his huge army kill 6 Jedi's, but instead chose too Solo all of them and Wreck'em almost killing them all. An single handedly chase and capture Palpatine all around Coruscant while fighting Clone an Jedi bodyguards with little help from his Droids. To one that goes like "Well im done for today see next week folks" some 50% percent off the time. The only time's he ever fights is he know's either his opponents are weak, or has a huge advantage against them or just arrogance. Yet were talking about the Version that got beat by Gungans, and resort to getting help almost all the time.

@NuclearHobo42 I remember i felt the same when i was a kid an saw the cartoon he was one of the most badass characters ever, me and my friends were talking about him alot. An yes we felt the same way after the movie, we were like thats it? that he was treated more of a joke too be honest.

​@@silentecho92able actually he never was even nerfed, always the same character in both the 2003 and 2008 TCW TV shows, just the 2003 shows how much of a beast he really was, while the 2008 shows when he isn't having a good time. Mostly it's the clones and jedi that call him a coward when to him it's a "strategic retreat" because he knows a losing battle when he sees one.

I am, and I'm scared... He would've curb stomped the Republic.

No Jedi , not even Kenobi and Vader would've been a match .

That's a good point! I hadn't thought about it that way. Of course he can't kill Anakin, Obi-Wan, Kit Fisto, etc. They should have had him rip up a few more knights throughout the show to demonstrate his threat level. But then they had the throw the padawan arc at us.. His worst moment in the show -_-

@@PurposefullyIneloquent Exactly, his best moments in legends are him slaughtering people who aren't in ep 3 or severely injuring people who are (Aayla secura) and like you said he just needs to cut loose against some new guys who we've grown decently attached too

But he lost like a little piece of shit in pure lightsaber battle against ventress. Stop lying to yourself, even on dathomir in TCW he was ridiculous at some points. What did they do to you Grievous...

@@grivous9515 Ya but ventress is pretty top tier

@@tenthshadowstep so Grievous is not at all.

In a unfinished scene of the 2008 Clone Wars, Grievous decapitates a Utapauan for being slightly annoying, and nearly kills Obi-Wan in a unanimous 1v1. But the episode was left unfinished when Disney bagged Star Wars.

SidDaSlothMan that was a pretty great moment, When grievous saw right through the little buggers lies. I did state that 2008 grievous did have his moments of badassery, him Decapitating the utuapaun bug guy was one of em 😂

...any chance we get that scene in all it’s glory in Clone Wars season 7?

F S It’s possible, considering most of the season will likely consist of unfinished episodes being completed. And the rest devoted to characters like Ahsoka, and Battles such as the siege of Mandolore.

I don't really know if you can call him cowardly when he genuinely doesn't display fear when he retreats. He just knows when to make a tactical retreat. Let's not forget the entire reason he died was because he had the chance to run like a coward, but didn't.

And still he was almost killed by Ventress.

Rasengan VXW okay true

On a serious note I wonder why the republic never tried assassinating him, he doesn't have the force so if a clone with a heavy sniper rifle lined up a shot and grievous didn't see it coming he could've been removed early on

@@jgonzalez5884If his armor can tank volleys from starfighter cannons and an explosion that obliterated an entire underground city from right in the center then I doubt a HSR will do much

@@jgonzalez5884 They must have since Grievous was the number one target to the Republic, even more important than Dooku himself. That's why Grievous is so notoriously paranoid, he knows he is in danger 24/7 due to his value.

@Epik shot in the exposed organs my guy

"You'll regret that!"

Sure but the important part of Grievous was that even the jedi couldn't stop him, which terrified the entire galaxy. But TCW show intentionally contradicts this. Matthew Wood (Grievous' vocie actor) said in a featurette of one of the episodes that Grievous is good but when he comes across a Jedi he is "backed up against the wall" because of "stupid droids". Which then contradicts Grievous' reputation as a jedi killer and the threat of droids as a whole to the galaxy, because where did the chaos come from then?

"Don't worry man it happens to all of us. I was supposed to be a democratic idealist. Then the author turned me into a hardass military strongman. While this was right after I was deposed during a siege, my then girlfriend had just wiped out an entire army, but I didn't use that for the reelection campaign. -Elend Venture

Everyone would be .

2D Grievous is stupid.

LITERALLY everyone was unnecessarily OP in the 2003 cartoon.. it looks totally badass there but wouldn’t be a good transition if they tried to make those 2D fights live-action.

Well, that's why it's 2D... Not everything translates well into IRL from the 2D world, but non the less it's nice and badass how it is.

@@Scoot694 If everyone is OP, so how Grievous is able to fight 5 OP jedis at once? Because it's proportionally OP. Everyone OP or not, still Grievous did what he did in this show. Sadly, it is not canon anymore. Thank you TCW 3D for destroying things that fans loved.

@@grivous9515 It s funny how TCW 2D can get away with retarded BS but when the sequels do it they are trash. 3D Grievous beat every Jedi that wasnt a council member and he even won against Adi Gallia and he drew against Obi Wan and Kit Fisto while the later had a massive advantage because of the fog. How much stronger can a force user be.

Yep

To get to a future where there are no jedi

To ambush the Republic Bounty Hunters on Life Day

I would call Grevious more a tragic villain with sympathetic backstory. But it’s no excuse for his future actions

Dooku is more of an evil Robert E. Lee, I think. In fact, the actor Christopher Lee is a distant relative of Robert E. Lee.

More Grievous!

He... Kinda does with the sep leaders in utapau

@@ledanoir1239 it's been a while since I watched the film but I don't think he so much consulted with them as told them to stop whining, that was good too though. Thinking back the only background you get for him is in the scrolling intro.

Be thankful viceroy, that you dint find yourself in my grift !

73-0 i am da way

This is the way

This is the way

6 battle droids missed and hit the dislike button- time to go back to reprogramming

Im afraid of this if we get the Filoni's version of Grievous.

Hello the same battle, I'm dad

You are a bold one!

That's why I call him retreating as a "strategic retreat" because he knows that fighting a losing battle isn't worth the effort.

Yeah, I had the same question

Maybe it’s something to do with how they organize in or between battle, like if a B2 super Battle droid outranks the standard battle droid it receives priority repairs and ammunition or is positioned differently in the formation

@@darthguilder1923 Also it was suppose to help with micro management a General cannot commander each individual soldier to do certain battle tactics so by having lower ranking droid commanders it would help with micro managment. As a General typical has to command the whole theater of engagement focus on the big picture and not get distracted by small details. As that is for the lesser Commanders to lead their battalions within in the army. Then to for the Junior officers to lead the platoons and the ncos to make effective use of each squad. That is where the Clone army excelled at it allowing for a highly mobile and effective fighting force. But the main issue was most of the Battle Droid commanders were bases of the B1 series making for rather weak and commanding figures at least post battle of naboo in the clone wars show. They were neither Charismatic or intimidating like general grevious himself. One example is a B1 tank Commander tells his subordinate tank commanders that we can't fit through these natural barriers as they are hunting master yoda and his clone body guards during a mission to meet the king of wato's people or something. Instead one his tank ncos is like nah were good we can fit. The AAT Driver Floors it and the tank crash's ejecting the b1 nco from his tank. The commander was like next listen orders sigh. Like wheres your Husbah your balls droid commander. Or resorting to insulting your warship gunner because he can't hit shit when the commander could have shown him how to be better his job lol. And Tactical Droids weren't to common and well their Super Tactical Droid Counter parts were a very rare sight to. What would made it a lot easier if the CIS invested heavily in command versions of B2 super battle droids. Although portrayed as slow moving derp's in the show. Well Republic commando show and attack of the clones to extent really shows these lumbering droids ruthlessness not only to the enemy but their B1 comrade in arms to. So having a B2 commander variants would have helped a lot also would spare grevious from having to destroy any useless and annoying b1 all the time. He could simply watch one his B2 subordinate commanders do it for him for his amusement lol. Then Dooku wouldn't have been on his case all the time about the Battle Droid budget lol. And will have same terrifying effect on the B1s to not step out of line or give any back sass lmao allowing for more B1s to be focused on the mission or tasks at hand and less time being annoying and complaining about everything and anything. Lol Clones were organic troopers with more thoughts and emotions than any battle droid. Yet they were more combat effective and disciplined then any confederacy droid. I am beginning to understand why general grevious wasn't always the most patient commander or lack a good sense of humour at times. Some I am getting the feeling that Old Sheev was up to his dirty tricks again lol.

Jonathan Timmel holy shit, always wondered what it was
