And in the end he forced the Republic to literally obliterate empire, Korriban and the Sith. From golden age to pile of rubble and some scattered exiles relentlessly pursued by the Jedi.

Not to mention he allowed such rivals as Ludo Kresh and Vitiate to grow their power unopposed. Resulting in civil war and for the force mad entity to prosper into the terrible dark god we are all familiar with. Threatening everything in the galaxy.

​@@jackolantern147 well vitiate was a good ruler. If He had not been so egoistical and selfish, He would have transformed the sith into something greater.

@@mateuszslawinski1990 Agreed. Revan, Palpatine, Bane all said that Naga Sadow was a total failure and a pathetic Dark Lord. Makes me admire Vitiate even more for being able to rebuild the Sith Empire more powerful than ever from scrap

That's still really short lived

@@darthbane418 I... feel that the sarcasm of the initial comment was near obvious enough that I thought my sink was having an issue.

You may think the invasion of iraq was only a few days but in reality a took multiple weeks! Type vibe lpl

For a comic who's title was the great hyperspace war i was expecting a lot more. Especially since the sith species are my favorite race in the star wars universe.

Palpatine did this though as well so he must be the same, he had the empire destroy itself when he died as he saw it nobody deserved to rule it and if he couldn’t rule then no one would

@@zachall101 not quite as palpatine built his empire as opposed to inheriting it

How did Naga Sadow destroy his empire? According to the first Darth Bane novel, Sadow ruled his empire for 600 years. That's the second longest reign in Sith history, after Emperor Vitiate, who ruled for 1500 years.

@@scottboa2738 I don't think that's possible, in the comics he only becomes a Dark Lord shortly before the Great Hyperspace War. He lives in exile for 600 years which is weird. The writers just forgot about him 😉

While his followers would realize that Ludo Kressh was right.

Yeah long live darth vitiate the inmortal ❤

@@1qplayer626 The fact that he managed to create TWO incredible almost invincible Empires in his Life Time is what still blows me away. One he rebuilt from scratch and the other from absolutely nothing. AMAZING

@@aranha6285 yeah man. He even Transzended death and light and dark. If only his own sith and children had not betrayed him for the outlander and the jedi, He could have won. He knew how to make the sith stronger, but they betrayed him.

​@@1qplayer626 Did they? As a matter of fact he betrayed Sith, beliving that they are failed experiment, and also the way he treated his family shows who is real traitor here. But other then that, he is hands down the most powerful Sith ever

@@DarthNox66 well maybe He betrayed senya but his children were Raised to be soldiers. How is that treason? And He only sacrificed thexan to make arcann stronger in the dark side. And lord scourge told the sith He would consune everything and He was a traitor as well

sith would become overconfident from the belief that their ideology of accepting prime instinct of emotions ultimately feed upon by the raw unyielding side of the dark side. you could say that fear was often used by the sith and over confidence but the best learned patience or (courage lack of better word ) of fear to instill their emotions. it plays well into the teaching of the jedi. which in legends if you read a bit has a nice back and forth of contradiction adding to good story telling (yes fuck you Kathleen Kennedy)

as the story goes it was the opposite. id say it was pure sith behavior, that he saw an opportunity and took it. in naga's ignorance vitiate was able to create something.

@@benkenobi1989I always got the impression that vitiate was smart enough (or maybe even prescient) to for-see that whoever succeeded Ragnos would bring disaster in one way or another, and was simply waiting for that to happen, he didn’t want the empire in its current state which is why he stayed out of the succession battles.

It is. Typo.

Precisely. There is no power in you if that strength controls you and not the other way around. Nihlus should be viewed more as a personified black hole for the Force rather than a true Sith, at least after Malachore

Cause they didn’t. Sadow build himself said Tomb

Well, despite all those years, he ended it all in one swoop. Total decimation. Meanwhile Palpatine took down the Jedi order as a whole, had the chosen one on his side and revamped the republic in his image.....in a much shorter time frame.

@@UnifiedEntity Palpatine was killed twice. First by his apprentice (ROTJ) and then by his own granddaughter (ROS)

@@scottboa2738 Yet he ended the Jedi order, something no one in Sith history has done. He didn't put the Sith in its own dark age now did he?

@@UnifiedEntity Emperor Palpatine DID NOT end the Jedi. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and others survived Order 66. He may have seriously depleted them. He didn't destroy them. Decades later, Vader's own son Luke became one of the most powerful Jedi ever. So did Palpatine's granddaughter Rey.

@@scottboa2738 there was no Jedi council, there was no safe haven for Jedi to gather and thrive about in their culture. They had no say in the galaxy order. There's a reason they said Luke rebuilt it. Because it was once destroyed. He did end the Jedi.

Revenge for defending themselves? How dare them.

@@olegdragora2557 the Jedi and Republic came close to genocide, but did commit cultural genocide.

@@olegdragora2557 yeah how dare the sith want the revenge for republic holocausting them

I've been saying this for a long time. His idea of each sith lord being more powerful than the last through the rule of 2 is flawed at best, and delusional at worst. The sith simply never gained the overwhelming power Bane had envisioned. In one comic, Sidious describes how he visited Korriban to try and regain lost knowledge from the ancient sith lord ghosts, and he says they nearly killed him and mocked him. One weak link, miscalculation, or premature decision resets the power of the sith back to zero under the rule of 2. Darth Vectivus is the best known example, as he spends his entire life as a sith studying the dark side nexus that revealed his force sensitivity, and simply died in his old age of natural causes, never being usurped by his apprentice.

​@@rebeccamiller9310 tbf without bane the sith were doomed aswell

@@mondaysinsanity8193 the sith had ups and downs through the eons. Without the rule of 2, they may have had a revival. Even without the title of Darth, which largely lost its meaning, the number of people that received training as apprentices by sith lords was more than 2 throughout the most recent timeline. Palpatine had 3 canon apprentices. Vader trained LOTS of people, and cloned Starkiller, his most powerful apprentice. The inquisitors were sith in all but name as well.

If u read the star wars knight errant comics series u see how fked up the sith were ruling/destroying planets and plotting against each other and this was during bane’s time and that baneclearly shows the sith were not capable to ruling the galaxy and however he did the favor by destroying it all

@@kotanovakota Bane could have remade the sith order to be more cohesive. The rule of 2 does nothing to stop the backstabbing, and it was in fact built into the ideology. At least before this, a dark lord could train several acolytes and apprentices up to sith lord without necessarily having to be defeated by them. The parallel to the jedi order made more sense to me. Under that system, dozens or hundreds of sith could die simultaneously without threatening their extinction. Maybe if all sith lords under the rule of 2 were like Darth Vitiate, and capable of surviving through all sorts of extraordinary means, only able to be killed by someone truly outclassing them in force power, I would consider the rule of 2 viable. Immortality is lost to the present sith though, and dark side corruption means their longer lifespans aren't a solution to any of their problems.

The Sith didn't go extinct. Lord Vitiate had an empire waiting in the shadows.

​@@yungpo9853 true long live vitiate ❤

Sidious admired his exploits in Alchemy. Other than that he saw him as a total clown

it was a typo

Those titles are interchangeable.

Lord Vitiate wasn't interested in teaming up with anyone.

@@yungpo9853 Agreed Vitiate would have most likely killed him

@@aranha6285 Lord Vitiate definitely would've won if he did his dark side ritual infusing all of the force in all living beings on his homeworld into him already.

@@yungpo9853 Marka Ragnos actually wanted Vitiate to succeed him

@@aranha6285 I don't remember him ever saying that. Ragnos did give Vitiate his name and made him governor of his homeworld at the age 14.

@@TextOnTelegrm_stupendousWave1 Quit with that scam.

Lord Sadow also trained legendary Sith Lord Freedon Nadd.

@@yungpo9853 oops, completely forgot about Nadd, my bad.

@@DarthKorrin Are you sure Kun was trained by Naga Sadow? Freedon Nadd killed Naga.

Training an apprentice & ruling over an Empire are 2 different things

@@yungpo9853 was he not? or was I confusing him with Nadd perhaps it was Nadd fuck oops.

What? Ridiculous.

Sidious was a lucky embarrassment. He just so happens to be at the right place at the right time. A lot of his accomplishments can be chalked up to pure luck.

1. Darth Sidious killed his master because that's how the rule of two works, the apprentice kills their master when they become expendable. There's also a lot more explanation in the Darth Plagueis novel. 2. Sidious gets credit for killing the Jedi Order because the Jedi at that time didn't care about anything besides politics. They refused to help planets the directly allied with the galactic senate. And they were extremely arrogant and ignorant. 3. Sidious got a clone army through his master, Darth Plagueis.

@@Reasoning1445 Oh really and what is it I don't understand

Not true, read the novel Plagueis

@@Reasoning1445 yes its part of the rule of 2s process however the masters supposed to be killed in combat and honorably. This is what solidifies the next gen of sith being more powerful. Its how Darth Band wanted , its creator. The rule of two now is corrupted.
