I appreciate the balanced take on the Venator class, so many others praise it as the best capital ship ever in Star Wars, ignoring it's many shortcomings.
I have never understood that myself, I think a case can be made that while a good ship at the start of the war she had been surpassed by the end of the Clone wars and was no longer viable for the new empire. Glad you liked that take.
The venator was more of a carrier, while the Empire needed a mobile garrison that was unassailable by pirates and rabble and could stand up to the old CIS capital ships. So the Victor worked better in that role, but was still outclassed by the ISD.
Ok must admit the Imperial Star Destroyers are very cool and one of the best things about the lesser "Star" franchise. Some of us must have a cookie jar full of brownies by now, as the highlight of the show is your ramblings at the end... "of course the main title is and I'm kidding"

Another (metaphorically) delicious slice of imperial pizza.
Gotta love the doom triangles

Real shame that these got memory holed with the prequels. I'm *still* mad they made ISDs atmospheric capable and *shudder* hoverable.
Yeah I really want the Victory to come back, but in current canon they have kinda made that unlikely
Crap I missed this
