- Good morning, Chancellor. How was your travel on Mandalore yesterday? - Very well, thanks. Now they are allies of the Republic, whether they like it or not.
@Irfan Alddin when your force potential is so catastrophically large that your opponent can casually ragdoll you, you gotta rethink if you can actually survive.
Probably using the force in some light form to keep it over his head to ensure his identity is concealed. I couldn't see someone as smart as Sidious risking his hood falling off mid-fight.
You notice Sidious' sabers' activation sounds at the start of the fight? The one in his right hand uses the same sound it did in ROTS when he fought Windu, and the one in his left hand used the one when he activated it against Yoda. It's implied he was using his spare against Yoda since his primary saber fell out the window during his fight with Windu. I love little details like this.
The fact that Maul used Soresu, the most defensive duelling style, in the beginning of this fight shows how utterly terrified he is of his former master

For Maul and Savage, this was the most brutal and close-to-death battle in their lives, a test of survival, when no matter how powerful of a duo they become, even Maul is visibly fearful knowing the abilities of their enemy as soon as he enters the room. For Palpatine, this was a Tuesday night
"Can we speed this up a little? My voice actor's close to dying!" In all seriousness though, I like how they gave Ian Abercrombie THIS as a farewell before his passing. Just as badass as the writers of Archer did with Malory's last appeareance.
What's worse is this was Tuesday on holiday. Typical Tuesday for Palps is wearing the mask of a mild-mannered aged politician. Palpatine had personal business to take care of and RELISHED in the fact that it HAD to become PERSONAL business. Finally, he didn't have to use proxies as a cudgel. He could revel in the thrill of doing it himself for once.
I'm fairly certain this has been said before...but the fact that Sidious can conceal his presence at will, yet chooses to let his guard down here, just goes to show how much he wanted to scare Maul before he even arrived. Dedication.
@@filliiiii7 If that's so then how did he hide his presence from Yoda and Windu while being in the same room as them. It's already quite clear he can do that if you watch the prequels.
@Irfan Alddin General Grievous isn't considered a Sith Lord, he was trained by Dooku but he's not one who can even use the force. Although he fights with lightsabers he's not actual Sith, he just works with them.
@Irfan Alddin I have to disagree. Sith Lord is just a term used to refer to dark side force users, or force users who followed Sith tradition. The title of a Sith Lord is Darth, and Dooku and Vader were both crowned Darth, while General Grievous, being a non-force user, cannot be a sith lord. Maul was a sith lord as Palps gave him the title, Darth Maul.
The fact that Mace Windu managed it to defeat Sidious in lightsaber combat is, after seeing this fight, just a showcase of how powerful Mace was. I would have loved to see a lightsaber duell between him and Maul
Palpatine did let mace hurt him so he could manipulate Anakin to dark side. His goal was not to kill mace, only to turn anakin. If Anakin was not in the picture, the fight would be much different. No wonder he killed 3 jedi cuz they stand in his way and he let the best of them be alive. All smart understands that lol. In addition, there’s no one enjoying fights more than sidious himself haha. if mace is so “powerful” he would come alone not 3 jedis with him lol
@@The_Sandwich1984 No, that guy is right, he sense the confusion of Anakin and he was emotionally manipulating him so he can go to the dark side, after the decision of Anakin, Sidious finished him "Unlimited power:" Rings you a bell?
Maul was essentially a tool, Dooku was his bridge across the Separatists and the Republic, but Anakin as the chosen one was his main strive since his initiation in the Jedi Order.
If Sidious knew the hit could've killed him or severely wounded him he would've countered it, he's basically just playing with his food in this fight and probably knew he could tank the tackle just to give them the illusion that they're actually on par with him.
@@williamleonardreesejr.1992 Honestly it kinda does like Savage hit him with his horns, I think Palpatine can just take that kind of hit because he's Palpatine
One detail at the end not many people realize is the one thing Maul says once the fight is over. "Please have Mercy." You may be thinking, well of course because he doesn’t want to die to his master, but we see throughout that Maul will stay for a battle until one opponent is killed. Whether it be him or his rival. He has shown that he is willing to take a warrior's death (just like in rebels), and even with his Dathomirian origin it makes sense. So this scene shows exactly how scary Sidious is, even to Maul. The fact that Maul, despite being willing to have a warrior's death, he asks for mercy from Sidious. When even an evil, determined and beligerent foe like Maul asks for Mercy from Sidious, that is how you know what true terror is.
Crazy to think about he genuinely fears Sidious. And yet wit all that, sidious to an extinct respected yoda’s powers (maybe even feared, but he knew yoda would never put his full power into affect cuz the jedi council’s politics and the senate) enough to tell maul one of the few people that maul would never beat, would be yoda.
I love how dominant Sidious is the whole battle. The only time when any semblance of a balanced conflict goes on is right after Savage dies. At that moment Maul proves that he is truly the one with the greatest ability to use what the sith philosophy teaches. He is the one who truly follows the sith code, the passion and hate gives power thing. But ultimately Palpatine is simply too good. He is the culmination of a thousand year plot, and a thousand years of linear improvement of the dark lords of the sith, beginning with Bane.
I like to see it as sidious was just trained in the dark side for to long. Well even at a young age he knew he was powerful and sadistic. And of course all the knowledge of the dark side Darth plagueis had. Sidious was literally the perfect storm .
Not that big of a cap. 1000 years to be the best. And maul throwing a temper tantrum is able to briefly match him in not beat him outright(like windu) which imo he did because like always sith restort to force powers. How did bane work out again.....Sidious had yet maul away with force powers. Maul out duel him in the end. Which sucks because then he gets beat by ashoka 😅 come on now. Like she could even last against sidious.....that how silly sw is.
Explain that to the fans who continue to watch Clone Wars, Rebels, Bad Batch, Mandalorian... tell them all that Star Wars is "silly."@@Googleisstupid-sk3hm
I love the little exchange starting at 2:50. Sidius jumps over him causally “dodge, dodge” then activates his lightsabers in a relaxed manner. It’s not even a battle ready stance either. He just treats it like a little dance rehearsal, “yup, 1, 2, 3, and 1, 2, 3.” 😂
It's obvious that Sidious is bored as shit. He no longer knows what to do to give Savage more of an advantage and prolong a fight that could have ended in two seconds.@@bluntslt8023
@P M granted it ain't word for word but the sentiment is there. Sensing a powerful but familiar presence then the surprise/alarm of realizing whom it was.
He was laughing because of his arrogance and sadism. He believes he’s better than them. Which in this case is true because he did the hard work and mastered force and saber abilities. But a combination of hubris and sadism is why palpatine is always laughing during combat. He enjoys seeing others suffer
When I wanted to become dark lord of the Sith THIS is what I signed up for Cackling maniacally while I murder my apprentice's family to mess with him NOT sitting in an office working on trade agreements all day
@@LITTLE1994What I also like is that Palpatine hates lightsabers. He sees them as beneath a Sith Lord, yet we see him fight Jedi Grand Masters and Sith Lords like it’s nothing. Just goes to show how really raw and powerful Palpatine is that the only way he can be defeated is by way of the force not sword fighting.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't smiling with Sidious in this fight. He's so confident in this battle, he knows he's going to win. He constantly turns his lightsaber off and laughs in their face while literally toying with them. One of my favourite duels from the Clone Wars.
@@californiansniper2133 I mean…he kinda tortured maul at the end lol. And if you consider that palpy probably could’ve just walked in and killed them both immediately if he really wanted too, then I’d say it’s more of a bullying than a schooling lol.
Oh i always root for them. Doesnt everyone? Nobody wants to see the heroes, just the maniacal, brutal, interesting villains. Every ***FANTASY*** movie and show i have ever watched i always root for the villain. I WANT the heroes to die, although i know it wont happen.
The fact this whole scene even took place is a testament to Sidious' evil. The whole encounter could have ended at 1:50 when both Savage and Maul failed to resist a mere force push from Sidious but he decided to test both their prowess in lightsaber combat instead and initiated the duel. Then at 2:40 after being successfully charged at by Savage and finding it difficult to take on both brother who have resorted to attack him from multiple direction simultaneously, you can see him audibly scowl before once more opting to use his superior mastery of the force to momentarily disable Maul and dispatch an isolated Savage. Finally, at 4:13 the dual wielding enraged Maul clearly has gained a lead against Sidious in terms of strength finally managing to land a kick and have the advantage in the final saber cross, however at this point Sidious had decided to end the encounter and further tapped into the dark side to overpower Maul on the saber cross, and opted to use the force to disable him.
@@Darknesss490I think rather that he can’t easily duel them both at the same time, especially since they surrounded him. However, his connection to the force would always be his trump card in the fight, allowing him to decide where the engagement would take place (throne room, to announcement yard place, to in front of the mural) as well as how it would take place as well (his amount of opponents and their fighting styles). Although the Maul duo could at least concern him in terms of their physical capabilities, they were in no way able to even touch him in terms of their force capabilities.
I love Palpatine here. He is just having the best of times when he is not having to deal with the Senate, a poor-running Republic, and feckless Jedi. This probably was like a major stress reliever for him
Sosa Bodiez he literally could’ve force choked her, or even just did what Snoke did and mind rape her, but nah let’s just zap her with a small bit of lightening 🤦🏻♂️
God, that movie was so painful -_- Also, one of the best parts about Maul as a character is how we learn that the Jedi weren’t the only ones being manipulated by the Sith and the Dark Side. Maul, an ex-apprentice of Sidious, was just as much of a victim of the Sith and Dark Side as others
Now THIS is what the people who refuse to watch this show because it’s animated are missing out on. Clone Wars has some of the greatest peaks in the franchise, without a doubt
This is exactly why people don't watch this show. Palpatine dual weidling lightsabers and doing corny stuff like moonwalk-stabbing Savage is almost as dumb as Yoda's gymnastics against Dooku.
It’s always so funny to me that Palpatine CHOSE to have this lightsaber fight. He could’ve just ended it in seconds with his sheer strength in the force as soon as he walked into that throne room. The fact that he even chose to learn to use a lightsaber as a pure mockery of the Jedi and not only learn the basics but learn how to use it BETTER than a majority of the Jedi is even funnier.
He also could have killed Savage and Maul something like 8 times without even using the force during the duel. He was just holding back so he got more fun out of them.
@@mlee7290 Sidious is way above a "sociopath." He's a maniacal, power hungry, sadist who has no sense of empathy. "Sociopaths" feel empathy. Sidious does not.
Hey if this is the last moment we see maul until season 7.....how is he free and still in control of everything he was if the emperor said “I have better used for you.” ?
@@swt7352 while I believe you ARE right I also think that just for a second Maul actually equaled Palps in lightsaber if only for a second before he shut that down.
I’m guessing Mas Ammeda (the blue guy with horns we see occasionally) did have to make up some excuses along those lines while Palpatine/Sidious was out 😂
@@jakeschwartz2514most dark side users still have some semblance of good in them and they only turned to the dark side due to trauma or external reasons but palpatine was just genuinely evil with no redeemable qualities or good in him
@@darklordofthesith2633 🎶 He's Sidious, Sidious. You never really know what he's gonna do next. He's Sidious, Sidious. Hehehehehe, let the hate flow through you 🎶
I dont think people actually realise that maul could have ruled the galaxy if it weren't for this fight, not only was he a tremendous fighter, he was a brilliant strategist and politician which often gets forgotten. I think he learnt all this from his master, but ultimately he could have taken a lot more but, I don't even think we saw maul at his full power.
The whole story of Maul is about failure and wasted potential. He would have ruled the Galaxy and reformed the Shadow Collective in George Lucas Episodes: VII-VIII-IX. But as we see in Rebels and Clone Wars, Maul always got close to complete his goals, until he was defeated in the last minute. That is one of the reasons why his death in Rebels is so well made and tragic.
any time Palps is one screen it's an absolute joy to see him ham it up and just have a blast. He was great in Jedi, Great in Revenge of the Sith, and Great in Rise of Skywalker. he just loves doing what he does.
On one hand, I'm impressed that Maul was briefly able to solo against Sidious, who is one of the greatest lightsaber duelists in history. On the other hand, Sidious considers lightsabers to be a weakness and the Force to be the greatest weapon a person can use. So like, Maul was amazing and probably in his best fighting form, but Sidous was literally just toying with him.
04:19 is the only moment in the duel where Sidious seems to be strained at all. And it’s over and gone within a second. But the fact Maul was able to make his former master strain even slightly speaks volumes.
We need more Sith vs Sith fights in Star Wars, the sheer aggression on their choreography, especially after Savage's death, is impressive: two force users, fuelled by rage and violence, going all out in the dark side with full intention to kill each other. We need more of this.
neither does padme also takes no fall damage, also the clone that fell with her.......I think you can't take fall damage in star wars, like borderlands or apex
I like rewatching this fight. It's so detailed. During the whole duel, Sidious is more focused on Maul. Completely humoring Oppresses attacks. Since he is aware of Mauls familiarity with his blindspots and openings. It was only until Palpatine realized Maul was opening him up to allow Savage to take the first blow. A deception that only further insulted Sidious even more.
I gotta say, Sidious fights way more better in the Clone Wars than in Revenge of the Sith. This really shows how powerful Sidious is cause we’ve always just seen him as this old, wise guy on the sidelines, but when he’s doing stuff himself it’s crazy to just see the action he can pull
I also love the detail of how scared Maul is of Sidious. First hint was Maul recognizing Sidious almost immediately and proceeds to bow to him as Savage has like no idea what’s happening. And then he begs for mercy which is so unlike Maul it kind of shocked us. Just another detail to show how much power Sidious has
This is the kind of fight they wanted for him in the Prequels. But from I understand, George wanted Ian in the fights as much as possible. So he had to lighten the choreo.
@@xcalibre436 and why is that? Ahsoka was a prodigy, excellent in both lightsaber combat and the force. She was also trained by the most powerful jedi in the galaxy. You Maul fanboys make me laugh 🤣
Sidious is so brutal in this fight, from impaling Savage and launching him off a cliff to force slamming Maul and electrocuting him even after he begged for mercy. I wish we could’ve seen more of this type of action from Sidious in CW or the films. Also goddamn form 7 looks clean asf with CW animation.
@@thespanishinquisition9160 na he just had other plans for him ahsoka had to save his ass after almost launching him to his death (even though we know siths dont seem to die afrer they fall) . maul got his butt kicked twice.
This fight is so sweet, the fact maul had become such a threat that Sidious had to deal with him personally, the fact that he toyed with them, he could have killed them with just the force but was so confident in his abilities he decided to dual fight them, the fact he kills oppress and tortures maul, like a wild lion toying with his prey before killing it! It’s so good! I never really felt Palpatine was a threat in the movies like Vader if he tried hard enough could over throw him especially since windu bested him but the clone wars made me LOVE sidious! Like he was so good he could have taken the galaxy whenever he wished but constructed this convoluted plan to embarrass the Jedi and make themselves the architects of their own downfall ensuring they’d never rise again to full strength. What a bad ass
It is nuts. Absolutely nuts this scene. I mean, Maul's a pretty nasty guy, plenty bad, but he has his motives despite his executions. But when Palpatine shows up, Maul is met with sheer, incomprehensible absolute evil. He plays with them, revels and chuckles as he stabs Opress. He's fast, an old man against two Zabrak warriors and not even breaking a sweat. It makes Maul look like a hero in this scene. And when you think about it objectively - Maul dualwielding with the darksaber against a spry dualwielding Palpatine under Mandalore. Definitely one of the most iconic fights in Star Wars.
Me being the observant fan I am, "Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Disney+." *Quick note: for a while they listed Seasons 1-6 of the show as a Disney+ original when it really wasn't (seasons 1-5 obviously aired on Cartoon Network, and season 6 was **_*The Lost Missions_* DVD that was also on Netflix).
I always saw this moment as Palpatine looking at what Maul had and realizing he could be quite the annoyance to his plans. He also realized that there was no easy way of having either the Republic or the Sepratists to handle it. So what does he do? He takes his personal ship, flies down there himself and reminds his former apprentice who is in charge, and it sure as hell isn’t him.
Through the show we see Jedi try to kick Savage’s leg and he isn’t fazed. But at 2:42 we see Sidious kick Savage so hard with ONE leg that Savage’s entire body goes flying. Really great way to show just how powerful Palpatine is.
The "there can only be 2" is already hinting towards Sidious having a part in the other Sith's deaths. After all, there were 6 Sith in the Clone Wars series (if I'm not mistaken)
Kuchen Pro the rule of two he is referring two is an ancient sith rule: at any given time, there can only be one master and one apprentice. Ventress and savage were dark jedis but not true sith lords
This is one of my favorite fight scenes in star wars because you really get to see just how handily sidious defeats his opponents and how in tune with the dark side he is, almost as if he just toys around with his opponents and gets joy from killing and torturing
"It was somewhat difficult to get the Prime Minister alone-I had to endure one of those ambassadorial dances, though at least I made sure to enjoy myself. Afterwards once I had gotten rid of his underlings, and applied some motivation, he mercifully listened to reason."
I will never get tried of how much fun Sidious has being evil, usually villains are very one sided with emotion and it’s usually anger or sadness of some sort but Sidious is quite possibly the happiest person in the galaxy and its all because he purely enjoys being evil
Maul looks so defeated and numb when Palpatine begins speaking after he kills Savage. It's like Maul knew this would happen and is just so tired he can't even express anymore rage towards Palpatine
The minute Maul knows Palpatine’s here, he’s afraid. His ego is destroyed, his fighting style is defensive, he resorts to try and trick Palpatine at first. Just goes to show that Palpatine was always powerful.
Seeing maul beg for mercy is heart breaking and seeing his reaction of fear in his eyes when he felt him walking to his location was crazy.. At first I hate the British like accent voice given for maul but it grew on me over time..🙏🏽
Well they can't reveal his true identity. It's gonna be revealed in the upcoming season for sure, hopefully he's one we've already seen in the old seasons.
@@goldenpeepeepoopoo3196 Yeah, I don't like doing that since I think it's pretty rude and I wouldn't want to do that to someone if they just missed something because it just happens sometimes, and also this isn't Reddit
Obi-Wan didn’t know he was there because of that and Palpatine used a landing pad that was hardly guarded, and the majority of Maul’s forces and Obi-Wan were busy fighting so that made it easier to get into the palace undetected
@@starwarsguy9803 This episode is also one of the times that Obi-Wan isn’t calm and collected; Satine just died. He’s clouded and consumed by the Dark Side
The Jedi suspected though? They even say the dark side surrounds the chancellor. Remember, the Jedi were also corrupt and their connection to the force was weaker. But yes, Sidious was an expert at hiding it.
"So, Chancellor, how was your vacation?" “Oh, I met up with an old friend. He brought his older brother along. It was..." *[Maul screaming in agony as Force Lightning tears through his body]* " _Quite_ enjoyable."
The one thing that separates Sidious from all the other Sith Lords is that they had some extent of love and humility in them. Even a violent and bloodthirsty killer like Maul had the ability to have concern and care for his “brother” as Dooku had for Qui Gon Jinn and Ventress to a certain extent and Vader to his son Luke.
When Maul is begging for mercy, hes not begging for life, hes begging for a quick death because he knows Sidous will torture him. That. is the scary part
The coolest thing in this is that there was a couple seconds were palpatine actually looked nervous after he killed savage, and Maul was the true threat against palpatine the entire time, you could see it on his face
imo this is the best fight scene in clone wars with maul and Ashoka’s at a close second. Plus this goes to show how badass sideous can be when necessary.

And it was a fist hit too
Just imagine if Savage had chosen his horns instead, like he did that one Jedi. Maul would have been so so so proud of his little bro
@@williamleonardreesejr.1992 “Holy sh*t Brother did you just KILL Sidious?” *Dramatic fanfare plays, roll credits*
If Sidious knew the hit could've killed him or severely wounded him he would've countered it, he's basically just playing with his food in this fight and probably knew he could tank the tackle just to give them the illusion that they're actually on par with him.
@@williamleonardreesejr.1992 Honestly it kinda does like Savage hit him with his horns, I think Palpatine can just take that kind of hit because he's Palpatine
One detail at the end not many people realize is the one thing Maul says once the fight is over. "Please have Mercy." You may be thinking, well of course because he doesn’t want to die to his master, but we see throughout that Maul will stay for a battle until one opponent is killed. Whether it be him or his rival. He has shown that he is willing to take a warrior's death (just like in rebels), and even with his Dathomirian origin it makes sense. So this scene shows exactly how scary Sidious is, even to Maul. The fact that Maul, despite being willing to have a warrior's death, he asks for mercy from Sidious. When even an evil, determined and beligerent foe like Maul asks for Mercy from Sidious, that is how you know what true terror is.
Perhaps when he asks for mercy, what he means is that he wants a quick death, not to be tortured by Sidious for the Force knows how long
Crazy to think about he genuinely fears Sidious. And yet wit all that, sidious to an extinct respected yoda’s powers (maybe even feared, but he knew yoda would never put his full power into affect cuz the jedi council’s politics and the senate) enough to tell maul one of the few people that maul would never beat, would be yoda.
@@Marcelelias11This is probably what he wanted, to be perfectly honest.
He asks for mercy because he knows sidious is going to torture him and not end his life quickly
Sidious wont kill him instantly.
Sidious would torture him to death slowly and painfully.
Savage must've been really confused at first, seeing his really powerful brother kneeling before a skinny old man lol
Good comment bro
lol
You're goddamn right orospçocu
indubitably.
That’s why I love Star Wars it doesn’t matter what gender, race or age you are it’s all insignificant to the power of the force.
Palpatine: *died*
Disney: “I have other uses for you”
I guess the original Palps' actor's thoughts were exactly the same.
vro Maul died then Filoni had other uses for him
@@TheWarwolf102 Reviving Maul is like reviving Loki in the mcu, reviving Palpatine is like bringing back Thanos once again, you dont do that

Roll it *AGAIN*
I love how dominant Sidious is the whole battle. The only time when any semblance of a balanced conflict goes on is right after Savage dies. At that moment Maul proves that he is truly the one with the greatest ability to use what the sith philosophy teaches. He is the one who truly follows the sith code, the passion and hate gives power thing. But ultimately Palpatine is simply too good. He is the culmination of a thousand year plot, and a thousand years of linear improvement of the dark lords of the sith, beginning with Bane.
Best analysis so far
I like to see it as sidious was just trained in the dark side for to long. Well even at a young age he knew he was powerful and sadistic. And of course all the knowledge of the dark side Darth plagueis had. Sidious was literally the perfect storm .
Not that big of a cap. 1000 years to be the best. And maul throwing a temper tantrum is able to briefly match him in not beat him outright(like windu) which imo he did because like always sith restort to force powers. How did bane work out again.....Sidious had yet maul away with force powers. Maul out duel him in the end. Which sucks because then he gets beat by ashoka 😅 come on now. Like she could even last against sidious.....that how silly sw is.
Explain that to the fans who continue to watch Clone Wars, Rebels, Bad Batch, Mandalorian... tell them all that Star Wars is "silly."@@Googleisstupid-sk3hm
Well unfortunately for him maul didnt have enogh zenkai boosts for super sayan 😂
I love the little exchange starting at 2:50. Sidius jumps over him causally “dodge, dodge” then activates his lightsabers in a relaxed manner. It’s not even a battle ready stance either. He just treats it like a little dance rehearsal, “yup, 1, 2, 3, and 1, 2, 3.” 😂
Sidious in his mind: Cha cha real smooth
Sidious against Savage is like an adult figgting a kid
😂😂
It's obvious that Sidious is bored as shit. He no longer knows what to do to give Savage more of an advantage and prolong a fight that could have ended in two seconds.@@bluntslt8023
Wow how is this not top comment
The way maul says “I sense a presence. A presence I haven’t felt since.... master!” You can hear the shock and terror.
It's also a nice little homage to when Vader senses Obi-Wan on the Death Star in Episode IV.
.-.
@P M granted it ain't word for word but the sentiment is there. Sensing a powerful but familiar presence then the surprise/alarm of realizing whom it was.
Sean Doughty i dont think terror was the right word it was in anticipation. To finally prove himself again
Sean Doughty he’s hearing boss music
i think palpatine was laughing so much because because he was tired of just chilling with the republic and was finally able to get in a fight
He was laughing because of his arrogance and sadism. He believes he’s better than them. Which in this case is true because he did the hard work and mastered force and saber abilities. But a combination of hubris and sadism is why palpatine is always laughing during combat. He enjoys seeing others suffer
He was having lots of fun
The way sidious killed savage and maul
He likes being psiitice
When I wanted to become dark lord of the Sith THIS is what I signed up for
Cackling maniacally while I murder my apprentice's family to mess with him
NOT sitting in an office working on trade agreements all day
I like how Palpatine’s blades emits deeper humming sounds, it’s a small detail that really fits his evil personality :)
I mean, what do you expect, he IS the Dark Master.
@@LITTLE1994What I also like is that Palpatine hates lightsabers. He sees them as beneath a Sith Lord, yet we see him fight Jedi Grand Masters and Sith Lords like it’s nothing. Just goes to show how really raw and powerful Palpatine is that the only way he can be defeated is by way of the force not sword fighting.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't smiling with Sidious in this fight. He's so confident in this battle, he knows he's going to win. He constantly turns his lightsaber off and laughs in their face while literally toying with them. One of my favourite duels from the Clone Wars.

chuckles222 oh i learned that long ago
Gamelof Demenor so I take it you’re a big fan of Revenge of the Sith? Cool cuz I am too.
The fact this whole scene even took place is a testament to Sidious' evil. The whole encounter could have ended at 1:50 when both Savage and Maul failed to resist a mere force push from Sidious but he decided to test both their prowess in lightsaber combat instead and initiated the duel.
Then at 2:40 after being successfully charged at by Savage and finding it difficult to take on both brother who have resorted to attack him from multiple direction simultaneously, you can see him audibly scowl before once more opting to use his superior mastery of the force to momentarily disable Maul and dispatch an isolated Savage.
Finally, at 4:13 the dual wielding enraged Maul clearly has gained a lead against Sidious in terms of strength finally managing to land a kick and have the advantage in the final saber cross, however at this point Sidious had decided to end the encounter and further tapped into the dark side to overpower Maul on the saber cross, and opted to use the force to disable him.
How does this not have any comments yet xd
Great comment.
Your comment is great, but I don't get the point. Do you state that Sidious can't overpower Maul and Savage at the same time?
@@Darknesss490I think rather that he can’t easily duel them both at the same time, especially since they surrounded him. However, his connection to the force would always be his trump card in the fight, allowing him to decide where the engagement would take place (throne room, to announcement yard place, to in front of the mural) as well as how it would take place as well (his amount of opponents and their fighting styles). Although the Maul duo could at least concern him in terms of their physical capabilities, they were in no way able to even touch him in terms of their force capabilities.
@@julienvalley28 Thank you!
I love Palpatine here. He is just having the best of times when he is not having to deal with the Senate, a poor-running Republic, and feckless Jedi. This probably was like a major stress reliever for him
He was probably imagining certain senators when he was killing the guards and fighting the brothers.
Palpatine is pretty badass when he's not frying himself with his own lightning.
iria bee fr he should of done this with Rey after sucking the life force out of them
Sosa Bodiez he literally could’ve force choked her, or even just did what Snoke did and mind rape her, but nah let’s just zap her with a small bit of lightening 🤦🏻♂️
God, that movie was so painful -_-
Also, one of the best parts about Maul as a character is how we learn that the Jedi weren’t the only ones being manipulated by the Sith and the Dark Side. Maul, an ex-apprentice of Sidious, was just as much of a victim of the Sith and Dark Side as others
Oxiinx would’ve been better if she went to the dark side and Ben kills her with both dark and light side powers.

It’s always so funny to me that Palpatine CHOSE to have this lightsaber fight. He could’ve just ended it in seconds with his sheer strength in the force as soon as he walked into that throne room. The fact that he even chose to learn to use a lightsaber as a pure mockery of the Jedi and not only learn the basics but learn how to use it BETTER than a majority of the Jedi is even funnier.
He also could have killed Savage and Maul something like 8 times without even using the force during the duel. He was just holding back so he got more fun out of them.

I dont think people actually realise that maul could have ruled the galaxy if it weren't for this fight, not only was he a tremendous fighter, he was a brilliant strategist and politician which often gets forgotten. I think he learnt all this from his master, but ultimately he could have taken a lot more but, I don't even think we saw maul at his full power.
exactly why sidious went to mandalore personally to stop him from becoming a threat
The whole story of Maul is about failure and wasted potential. He would have ruled the Galaxy and reformed the Shadow Collective in George Lucas Episodes: VII-VIII-IX. But as we see in Rebels and Clone Wars, Maul always got close to complete his goals, until he was defeated in the last minute. That is one of the reasons why his death in Rebels is so well made and tragic.
The fact that he wanted to face this problem personally and considered maul a rival and fought them with a lighsaber really says a lot about maul
The best part about this is that Palpatine is acting like this is the most fun he’s had in a while.
I mean this was basically a nice distraction and a chance to stretch his ass kicking legs for the first time in decades probably
Ole Sheev was happier than when you bust that really good nut after a long dry spell.

WITH HIS BIG PP
On one hand, I'm impressed that Maul was briefly able to solo against Sidious, who is one of the greatest lightsaber duelists in history. On the other hand, Sidious considers lightsabers to be a weakness and the Force to be the greatest weapon a person can use.
So like, Maul was amazing and probably in his best fighting form, but Sidous was literally just toying with him.
04:19 is the only moment in the duel where Sidious seems to be strained at all. And it’s over and gone within a second. But the fact Maul was able to make his former master strain even slightly speaks volumes.
We need more Sith vs Sith fights in Star Wars, the sheer aggression on their choreography, especially after Savage's death, is impressive: two force users, fuelled by rage and violence, going all out in the dark side with full intention to kill each other. We need more of this.
nah KK just gonna bring more mary sue rey,,wehre ou dont need trainign to use the force at all

I like rewatching this fight. It's so detailed. During the whole duel, Sidious is more focused on Maul. Completely humoring Oppresses attacks. Since he is aware of Mauls familiarity with his blindspots and openings. It was only until Palpatine realized Maul was opening him up to allow Savage to take the first blow. A deception that only further insulted Sidious even more.

I also love the detail of how scared Maul is of Sidious. First hint was Maul recognizing Sidious almost immediately and proceeds to bow to him as Savage has like no idea what’s happening. And then he begs for mercy which is so unlike Maul it kind of shocked us. Just another detail to show how much power Sidious has

I never really felt Palpatine was a threat in the movies like Vader if he tried hard enough could over throw him especially since windu bested him but the clone wars made me LOVE sidious! Like he was so good he could have taken the galaxy whenever he wished but constructed this convoluted plan to embarrass the Jedi and make themselves the architects of their own downfall ensuring they’d never rise again to full strength. What a bad ass
It is nuts. Absolutely nuts this scene. I mean, Maul's a pretty nasty guy, plenty bad, but he has his motives despite his executions. But when Palpatine shows up, Maul is met with sheer, incomprehensible absolute evil. He plays with them, revels and chuckles as he stabs Opress. He's fast, an old man against two Zabrak warriors and not even breaking a sweat. It makes Maul look like a hero in this scene. And when you think about it objectively - Maul dualwielding with the darksaber against a spry dualwielding Palpatine under Mandalore. Definitely one of the most iconic fights in Star Wars.

I always saw this moment as Palpatine looking at what Maul had and realizing he could be quite the annoyance to his plans. He also realized that there was no easy way of having either the Republic or the Sepratists to handle it. So what does he do? He takes his personal ship, flies down there himself and reminds his former apprentice who is in charge, and it sure as hell isn’t him.
Through the show we see Jedi try to kick Savage’s leg and he isn’t fazed.
But at 2:42 we see Sidious kick Savage so hard with ONE leg that Savage’s entire body goes flying.

“Rather dull truth be told.”
the pollitical mission he went on wasnt as entertaining as he had hoped it to be...
Lmfao imagine Palpatine at an opera in the 1700s
Haytham And Connor would make excellent star Wars characters

„Shall we be off then?“
the fact that maul, for several seconds of the ending was a match for palpatine, is really underrated
The minute Maul knows Palpatine’s here, he’s afraid. His ego is destroyed, his fighting style is defensive, he resorts to try and trick Palpatine at first. Just goes to show that Palpatine was always powerful.
Jedi: There are no emotions, there is peace. There is no passion, there is serenity
Sith: Cutting the floor looks cool
Hell yes it does.
Sith: There is no mercy. *sounds of electrocution*

Doesn’t Palpatine beating Maul technically make him the rightful leader of Mandalore now? lmao
Yes.
so rey is now the leader of mandalore?
@@schmecklin377 ehm yes.. omg... :-O :-(
Imagine you wanna take over the senate but then you become the leader of mandalore... must suck
@@schmecklin377 technically it should be Vader as he defeated Palpatine in combat before Rey did.
Have you seen Clone Wars?"
"I don't watch cartoons."
Poor fools...
Live action Lightsaber Battles inferior. Animated Lightsaber Battles far superior.
Seeing maul beg for mercy is heart breaking and seeing his reaction of fear in his eyes when he felt him walking to his location was crazy..
At first I hate the British like accent voice given for maul but it grew on me over time..🙏🏽
Funny thing is, Palpatine's hood does not fall in the entire duel.
Well they can't reveal his true identity. It's gonna be revealed in the upcoming season for sure, hopefully he's one we've already seen in the old seasons.
- Schattenpflanze - what are you talking about? We already know his true identity
@@goldenpeepeepoopoo3196 He is definitely joking
White Chili at least you didn’t woosh me
@@goldenpeepeepoopoo3196 Yeah, I don't like doing that since I think it's pretty rude and I wouldn't want to do that to someone if they just missed something because it just happens sometimes, and also this isn't Reddit
“I used your training master.” I just realized this meant that Sidious taught maul how to cheat death.
It's just great to see Sidius get to go out, and have some fun for once. Just smiling through most of that fight
Palpatine can hide his presence from the entire Jedi Order. He wanted Maul to know he was coming for him
Obi-Wan didn’t know he was there because of that and Palpatine used a landing pad that was hardly guarded, and the majority of Maul’s forces and Obi-Wan were busy fighting so that made it easier to get into the palace undetected
@@starwarsguy9803 This episode is also one of the times that Obi-Wan isn’t calm and collected; Satine just died. He’s clouded and consumed by the Dark Side
The Jedi suspected though? They even say the dark side surrounds the chancellor. Remember, the Jedi were also corrupt and their connection to the force was weaker. But yes, Sidious was an expert at hiding it.
Nah,the writers just made the Jedi incompetent
@@pamoweiberezi5315 This 😂
"So, Chancellor, how was your vacation?"
“Oh, I met up with an old friend. He brought his older brother along. It was..."
*[Maul screaming in agony as Force Lightning tears through his body]*
" _Quite_ enjoyable."
Was that in the script?
“It was...”
*Maul getting zapped*
“Enlightening”
Seriously, how can joke be this unfunny *and* unoriginal?
Passione Nera Over a thousand other people probably have an answer for you, but for the life of me, I can’t guess what it would be.
Quite shocking
One of the greatest fights in all of Star Wars , the emperor going on a solo mission, SO DAMN AWESOME !
The one thing that separates Sidious from all the other Sith Lords is that they had some extent of love and humility in them. Even a violent and bloodthirsty killer like Maul had the ability to have concern and care for his “brother” as Dooku had for Qui Gon Jinn and Ventress to a certain extent and Vader to his son Luke.
When Maul is begging for mercy, hes not begging for life, hes begging for a quick death because he knows Sidous will torture him. That. is the scary part
"There is no mercy..."
It did say that Maul feared Sidious above all else
@Masketta Man be mean, do not.
No wonder he told him he's not going to kill him.
Stars 1222 “There are some things, far more frightening then death”
I like how sidious just casually stores his lightsabers in his armpits.
So his lightsaber smells
Sweat
@@giratina1012 I think it smells good. Unless, he didn't bath for weeks.
@@ABeastG only real siths use force bath lol
@@giratina1012 what a humiliating way to die.
The coolest thing in this is that there was a couple seconds were palpatine actually looked nervous after he killed savage, and Maul was the true threat against palpatine the entire time, you could see it on his face
imo this is the best fight scene in clone wars with maul and Ashoka’s at a close second. Plus this goes to show how badass sideous can be when necessary.

He's not cannon
Kyle K he’s literally in season 6
@@kylek7306 If the last Jedi is cannon, but kotor is not, then I don’t give a shit about cannon or not cannon.
@@coolusername337 those new movies are trash. Clone wars and marvel vader 2015 cannon is fire. Kotor was extremely lazy story and character creating. I can do the same shit with hero editor. That's why it's non cannon everyone is so op from lazy fat ass game creators that it's stupid
@@kylek7306 I’m not saying everything from Disney is bad. The clone wars is one of my favorite shows, along with the mandalorian, and kotor isn’t the best. I guess I’m more mad that the original sequels in the books was replaced by shit.
Edit: also, I love the Vader comics.
