I do NOT own the movie footage used in this. Star Wars is owned by Lucasfilm, Disney, and Fox.
Massive thanks to my friend Reti4 for designing the thumbnails for every versus video this Season and helping me edit this script: / @reti4
Also, I gotta give a shoutout to CRISIS_COMICS, whose videos put me in mind to several of the sources referenced in this matchup: / @crisis_comics - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน

The virgin TH-cam shorts power scaling vs the chad feature film length hypothetical matchup discussion
I’m a yt shorts editor and I actually agree with this the yt shorts tier system is too linear and I try to analyze on a more individual scale per character.
I lost brain cells at a Cal Kestis vs Dooku short when they literally gave Cal the advantage in IQ and in some categories. Even in Disney Canon dumbing down and watering down most of the Jedi and Sith, Dooku is literally one of the strongest force wielders. I like Cal but these shorts are a blight upon YT community.
Yo 😂
I can't stand those smfh. So lazy
Fair I just like editing them and yeah they are to linear but it’s hard to put all of that in a minute
What the fuck! Some of my favorite Sith Lords in a 2 hour matchup? My god this must be a gift from the force itself.
You said it, man.😅😊
✌️
This is probably the first time Palpatine actually lost to another Sith Lord. Does this mean Krayt is now The most powerful Sith lord?
@@Tarnthewarrior It’s either Krayt or Vitiate
@@gameovervirus2384Darish Vol and Caedus are up there too
Shadow dropped one of the most wanted matchups ever?
A surprise, to be sure…but a welcome one.
I was literally going to recommend doing Sidious vs Krayt vs Vitiate. Either way, Insane work man I’m going to enjoy this. ❤
Just as another point to Sidious' physical strength, one kick to Savage Oppress was enough to stun Oppress, whereas Obi-Wan in his physical prime needed several kicks just to stagger Oppress.
I don't think that's purely strength. Yes, better technique executed at quick speed leads to much more force, but it is about where you strike. I don't remember how and where Sidious land his kick, but I remember the one Kenobi did. He kicks on Savage's knee from outside in, making his knee cave in and he lost balance, which Kenobi then dashed out and cut forearm. In Muay Thai and Karate (one I learnt), that strike can literally get your knee joint dislocated and even worse, your ligaments ruptured. The previous strikes may not have stroke Savage's knee at the right angle, or he just kicks to build up that torque for the decisive one. Personally, I lean to the former, Kenobi kicks, but first he does not land a powerful stomp like the one you mentioned, and second he hits more directly on Savage's knee cap, not hitting his side.
Never underestimate force speed, or just dark side empowerment in general lol.
@@quangtrungbui675If you literally admit you don't even recall the feat being mentioned, why are you talking about like as if you know what you are talking about?
@@papapalps2415 because I only explain the information I'm sure I know what I'm talking and leave the other for someone else. And since I'm also into fist-fighting, I know what I'm getting into and also where I should stop. And I said I did not remember how and where Sidious kicks Savage at the comment's time, not I did not recall it being mentioned. But I remember Kenobi's, so yea, I only described his.
The Emperor of the Galactic Empire vs the leader of the One Sith. This would be one hell of an interesting match up.
imagine both empires clash (Ge vs 1 sith leigon) I guarantee that the 1 sith would steamroll with thousands of darksiders force crushing and riping storm troopers to shreds at extreme speed and Darth Wyyrlok illusions would make the empire destroy itself fast. Darth Vader might get a few dozen sith killed them he'd be immobilized by 1000 force chokes all together.
@@abstraction6212 I think since Vader is extremely smart he might be able to beat warlock extremely high diff( looking like Vader v momin) but he ain't touching Krayt
@@Badblood226 as for everything else? we've seen how Jedi wipe out armies in micro series tcw, storm troopers and imperial forces have the worst survivability rates as fodder characters like dash rendar, mercenary Kyle Katarn and ewoks outsmarted and destroyed imperial forces like nothing, Starkiller a mid tier dark Jedi and Padawan level Kyle Katarn cleave through like nothing. And your dealing with the 1 sith the only sith order in existence to defeat Abeloth and Luke's NJO after his death putting them leagues beyond Khan's brotherhood or any other sith order in galactic history. They will just choke grind and electrocute imperial forces like nothing. Even a low powered force lightning one shots AT-AT Darth Trooper Phase 3 and star destroyer executor, and the force illusion mind r### the entire empire into insanity infighting or suicide will just make the war easier for the one sith.
In the potential case of a Q@A I present some questions here
1: Call me an old man but I remember hearing the discussion of Krayt beating Sidious way back when during the Council Forcecast podcast episode titled “Darth Sidious is not invincible” How has your opinion of these two Sith evolved since that first discussion
2: What is your process for formatting your video scripts and what is your process for researching the powers of each character?
3: Looking back on all of Versus Series Season 7 as a whole. What matchup would you say you are most proud of and what character breakdown are you most proud of? (both can be separate)
4: What wisdom would you provide to any fledgling Versus Series creators who want to follow in your footsteps in making these videos?
Thank you for all of the wonderful videos all these years Evan, I wish you the best in life and I can’t wait to see what comes next.
To quote The Count himself, "I've been looking forward to this".
Gosh I remember watching these like a decade ago. Happy to discover you’re still posting 👍
He and Jensaarai have never stopped
Q&A Questions-
1. What is your general opinion on Darth Sidious as a character?
2. Since Jensaarai 1 made a dedicated profile video on Sidious’ martial techniques, have you considered making one on Grand Master Luke Skywalker?
3. Who is your favorite practitioner (confirmed or implied) of Form VI Niman?
1. Star Wars greatest villain
2. No
3. Exar Kunn
1. A villain you love to hate
2. No. He's so broken that Reborn Krayt is the only character that would be able to stand against him.
3. Revan
1) A fountain of memes. Very entertaining.
2) No?
3) Probably Exar Kun due to his innovations. One of a kind weapon and trakata really makes him a high risk high reward trickster.
FUUUUUUUCKKKK YESSSSSSSS. from 7th grade to my third year of college, thanks Evan!
Been watching for about just as long! Good stuff.
Saying Krayt has better lightning just because Luke elected to dodge a possible lightning attack from him is a bit of a stretch considering the monolithic laundry list of feats attributed to how powerful Sidious' lightning is in comparison to his own. Flash-frying targets to skeletons, having to attain a level of mastery of the power as a prerequisite to learning how to conjure a Force Storm-it'd be more likely that Krayt is comparable to Palpatine in this regard, but putting it above Palpatine's on the basis of Luke wanting to dodge a *possible* lightning attack headed his way from Krayt...that's a bit much.
Wait did he say that? I thought he said the difference between krayt and sidious lightning wasn’t as large as people may think meaning he stil has palps above
Tbf Luke not wanting to get hit by an attack and moving is still crazy if it’s used as proof like mmost people tend to avoid things being aimed at them
it’s around 2:05:00
I think the difference comes in when comparing when he dodged the lightning attack; Jedi Knight Luke who actually begins to be as and even start to surpass his father while Grand Master Luke has surpassed his father and is the strongest Jedi.
Well krayt does have lightning feats he slaughtered an entire ship full of force resistant one with nothing but lightning as well as roasting a large group of rakghouls with one blast and there was probably close to two dozen of them just scorched out of existence. Also let’s not forget he had some much control over lightning that he he engulf people without even shocking them that’s a degree of control sidious never exhibited.
@AndreVeaseyJr the luke Skywalker papaltine faced was already stronger than vader as the return of the jedi novel said vader and luke are both equal dark empire luke Skywalker got alot stronger
"A surprise to but sure but a welcome one."- Chancellor Palpatine
Well done fucking that up
The best Star Wars Versus series of all time and the best star wars EU content ever made! Keep up the amazing work!🙌🙌
I greatly appreciate the loyalty to EU Canon. Too many Star Wars creators reference “disney canon” which was made by people who hate Star Wars and its fanbase.
I expected Dooku vs Malak, but this is much better thank you
Also how about Cadeus vs Revan I mean the parallels between them are countless
@@Wes_Bradley-Taubner And also the fact that he's extremaly overrated by a large portion of the fans, although i tend to belive that old republic era characters tend to be really overrated by the fandome .
@@elfather2045 That's largely because SWTOR's mmo format allows for more visually impressive displays of power
@@elfather2045Same for NJO
HOLY COW!!!!! This is one I've wanted for a long time but never thought we'd get. Can't wait to listen
This was so good man. I’ve been watching you since Primary School, and not only is it insane that you’re still going
It’s insane that your content has gotten so much better, it’s honestly so cool to see. Thank you for all the memories man, I still remember first seeing the Galen Marek vs Ashoka video which introduced me to you. ^-^
LESGOOO I'VE BEEN WANTING TO SEE YOU COVER SIDIOUS FOR SO LONG
Saving this for the second I'm back home, love your stuff as always man.
It was such an epic scal annalyse! I was entrance by your video nearly from begining through the end. In my opinion, you done an amazing job! It's a masterpiece !
Good to see you still putting out AWESOME content Evannova95 !! Such a golden era back in the day with you, Antoine Bendele and Jensarai
This is Master Level Supreme Analysis Evan!! You have master the force of Vs Videos!
Evan!! Great to see you back, I cannot wait to listen to this new installment
First. A battle of Sith Lords. Nice to see Darth Krayt makes his return.
Your versus videos are the best in all the social media! Not only do you do deep research for the characters, but you also choose very wisely! Sometimes I might not agree with the winner, but opinions differ.
Congratulations for choosing 2 awesome villains, greetings from Greece!
Good to see you back man. Love all of your videos/content Evan.
I’ve been a fan over several years and I’m very happy about this vid it’s good to have you back Evannova95! Also I love this match up it’s my two favorite darksiders besides Malgus and Vader.
Yoo this is awesome! Was totally not expecting this, so hyped for this one!!!
oh shoot ive been looking forward to this i always listen to your stuff at night when im trying to sleep helps quiet the adhd racing mind this is going to be legend tier
Thank you for all the hard work here, amazing video!!
Can't wait to see more content from you, the number 1 star wars versus series creator
I do recall making this suggestion years ago. Though I know it wasn't just a request on my end, I'm so glad I finally got to see the match up I've been wanting for such a long time. Thanks again for this, Evan. I cant imagine the massive undertaking it took to make thisbpossible. Nevertheless, every second of it was amazing. Can't wait to see your future projects. Stay safe and May the Force be with you.
Good seeing you back, Evan!
I've been wanting you to do this video. ❤ Thank you Evan
What a pleasant surprise. Haven't watched since I made a new TH-cam. Last video I watched was you talking about Kol Skywalker. Good times. Glad I found the channel again
Absolute mastercraft of a video and in my opinion the best verses video I've ever seen on youtube period. Hoping we get Darth Krayt vs Valkorion/ vitiate next
Oh dayum i’ve waited 10 years for this! And it will have to wait until tomorrow as 2+ hrs is one hell of a demand😂😂 looking forward though, thankyou Evan
never stop making videos Evan! your our hero! You and Connor are our old Ben and Yoda, the last in your generation of Versus Battlers that set the standard!
The anticipation … the excitement … I can feel it … UNLIMITED POWER !!!
This must be the mother of all Versus videos, and I'm all for it.
This is a dream Match up🔥
Yes!!! Something worth watching lol. Welcome back! Plus two of my favorites Sith going at it
HE’S BACK, BABY! 6 months well spent, I say!
This channel is always a good place to revisit 👏
That was a fun listen. Yeah I have to agree with your outcome on this matchup. Good stuff! 👍
OH MY GOD YOU FINALLY DID IT!
Been waiting for this one since the Council Forecast pondered it 8 years ago. I'm sure it won't disappointi!
You’re a GOAT for this.
Scary crab man beats up an old politician.
More like a hedgehog
Firstly love your stuff Evan been watching you for years keep up the good work
Secondly how dare you make a 2 1/2 hour video making me drop everything I’m doing to watch this amazing video and reminding me on why Krayt is my favorite emperor lol
Best Star Wars TH-camr is back yay!!!
I would love to see these have a come back
I was not expecting this one
God I love the narrations they make these so much more engaging
Holy shit i just realized ive been subscribed to you for almost 10 years.
Hey it's finally out! Congratulations Evan!
i have waited for this for a long time :D
YEEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE
WELCOME BACK BROTHER
Omg yes, more content. Love it
Damn, I felt the disturbance in the force - but this is a legendary present after a day in the office. I mean what can even top this match up? A three-way battle between those to plus Vitiate? Amazing as always, man!
Evan you beautiful bastard. I never expected this masterpiece for the season finale. May the force be with you
You absolute madman🙏🏼💯
Time for this then Takes if the Jedi. Thank you, Evan!
I won't have time to watch this until the weekend, but I can't wait!
W video. Idk if i completely agree with the outcome but amazing analysis. As for ideas I mentioned it once but Darth Thanaton vs Inquisitor Jerec just sits right with me for some reason. Glad to see this finally released. Amazing work :)
An interesting matchup: Clash of the Dark Side Scholars. Even though both combatants were primarily Force duelists, Jerec gets the martial edge, though I doubt a fight between these two would be a lightsaber battle.
In regards to raw Force power level, I’d say they’re comparable in strength. Ultimately, I think that Thanaton would ultimately win. His Force shields allows him to defend himself against Jerec’s Force Destruction and Thanaton’s lightning is more developed and stronger. As the head of the Sphere of Ancient Knowledge, Thanaton likely familiarized himself with mental techniques to defend against Jerec’s Force Suppression ability, thus keeping his basis covered.
Well said my friend, well said.
Fun idea, both dark side scholars with force abilities being the deciding factor.
In terms of power, Id give an edge to Thanaton. Jerec is comp to Dooku, Thanatos to Malgus. But Jerec is still powerful enough to contend quite well. But consume essence can make up the power difference if Thanatos does full dark side channeling.
Jerec has outs to everything Thanaton throws at him. advanced sense abilities + battlemind handles telepathy, tutaminis handles lightning, solid tk barriers for tk. And then Jerec busts out force destruction which Thanatos has no idea how to deal with. His active force shield could guard against it, but im unsure how Thanaton would predict to that in the first place.
Add on top of jerec's advantage as a swordsman, and I think Jerec has the odds to pull a win.
Only just started the video, but this going to be an absolute banger!! Bets on Krayt though, I’ll get back to this comment after the video.
(post video) Yeah i had a feeling this was in Krayts favor, but damn it really is a bit of a stomp. Absolute banger once again from the best Star wars youtuber around! Looking forward to season 8!
Never in my life have I needed something so much in my life until I’ve recieved it.
Hell yeah, a versus where Krayt’s body isn’t going to kneecap his viability! This is gonna be good
I have wanted to see this fight ever since I discovered this corner of TH-cam back in 2011. Let’s go!!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haven't even watched yet, but I know this will be a total banger
Q&A:
1.) would you do a revised Sidious vs Vitiate video? We’ve learned so much more about Vitiate since you did your original one and I think your view of Sidious has evolved a great deal.
2.) how would you feel about a Caedus vs Krayt match up? I think they match each other very well.
3.) do you think sidious could’ve matched Krayt’s feats against Abeloth?
4.) do you think that the claims stating “____ is the most powerful Sith Lord” hold any validity? They throw claims like that around non stop. It does a disservice to rely too heavily on them. People think that just because one is further down the Rule of Two line they’re automatically more powerful than earlier ones which is illogical for multiple reasons, one being that later Sith used treachery more often than an actual duel which is what Bane intended, thereby negating one’s inferiority and skirting direct power leveling.
Thanks for the video it was absolutely fantastic. I disagree with a couple of the points but overall you make a very compelling argument for Krayt.
God Bless you Evan Nova! I'ma watch this as a movie!!!!!
Well Evan you've set the stage well for the next step. We need GM Luke v. Krayt.
Agreed
If we take base Crucible Luke Skywalker he should win. With immense difficulty tho. With the monolith energy amplification he low diffs
No, we don’t. Luke wins…
My thoughts exactly. We need GM Luke.
@@TinyToraha better idea a rematch with sidious and Krayt but this time it's the one sith vs the entire galactic empire (including the Inquisitors, lumaya and starkiller)
And safe to say the One Sith Being on Luke's NJO level would curbstomp the empire effortlessly force waving and destroying a whole bunch of Storm troopers and ATATs and Star destroyers as possible. Vader might get a few dozen of Krayts sith killed but then Hell be embolized by 1000+ force chokes all together. then Krayt uses Darth Transfer then Krayt kills sidious then the remaining empire along with Krayts ROO will bow down to the true emperor.
Holy shit it’s been so long since you’ve graced my page 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very good verses choice!
Sidious vs Krayt has to be the ultimate mashup
SNEAK ATTACK!!!! And with my favorite reigning Sith Lord! Darth Krayt is a beast! The Legacy era is my favorite and I’m glad you show it love
I've waited a long time for this... my little green friend
Welcome back
Awsome. Ive been waiting for a Sidious versus ever since your Sidious vs Vitiate. Been a long time but hey, time goes by, we get older, our lives change and sometimes our passion projects give way to making sure our personal lives are kept in order at least if you take words like responsibility seriously.
I know it would be a lot but what do think of Padawan Obi Wan Kenobi and Jedi Master Obi Wan Kenobi versus Teneb Kel and Darth Thanaton?
41:09 Again Vastor does not scale to ROTS Anakin. The Anakin in that novel is literally ATOC anakin who gets utterly obliterated by his rots counterpart. That is like scaling a literal child to a full grown adult numerous sources state Anakin's ATOC power was vastly surpassed by Anakin a few months into the war to the point he is basically a completely different person. Kar Vastor does not scale to rots Anakin the difference is so vast its ridiculous
Or otherwise the novel means Clone Wars Anakin
@@lapplandkun9273 Its still him shortly after the war starts
Saw the thumbnail, got a big smile on my face
This was an amazing match up, and one I have wanted to see for years. I am happy with the outcome of the fight, both emperors gave it their all but in the end only one of them could walk away alive.
I could not wait to get home from work and watch this on my tv.
Given that Darth Sidious had several trophy lightsabers from Jedi he has killed and that we have seen him dual wield in TCW, how likely would it be to see him pick up a second lightsaber and use Jar’Kai against Darth Krayt’s own use of the style?
Damn... thats one epic finale if I ever saw one xD such a great surprise for this evening ^^
This has been one hell of a season, I gotta say. Fun fact: all three of my favorite characters have been featured in this season (and some of my art has been featured in videos... thats wild to think, ngl) xD very happy with the series and how incredible the quality of the videos is.
As a question for the Q/A: will the next season also have an overarching theme?
Christmas came early
I'm so excited.
This is where the fun begins.
Remain one of your biggest fans! This video rocks! Darth Krayt is one my favorite Sith, and definitely my favorite reigning Sith Lord.
Great video, Evan! Everything that I had expected and more!
A couple of questions:
1. Would you ever consider bringing in a more unorthodox character like Darth Nihlus, for example? If so, who would you consider pitting him against? If not, would you do a discussion video about the particulars of his power set and scaling?
2. A follow-up, do you think that it is possible for ordinary force users to resist Nihlus’s drain abilities, or would it require an exceptionally powerful force user to resist? Or do you think that there is no one, with the exception of Meetra Surik, who can even stand up for long enough to kill him?
3. I remember in season 6 that you did a huge team battle. Would that be something that you would consider doing again, or is that something that is not really under consideration?
Also, I was going to ask about Palpatine and Krayt, but you seemingly could sense my intentions and curiosity on the subject. A true Jedi master.
Evan and his friends already said in the past why they don't make versus battles with Nihilus. He is the ultimate manifestation of feast or famine... both figuratively and metaphorically.
He either one shots you and drains you, or he is overpowered or negated in the case of the exile. Basically a matchup entirely decided by power levels the first few minutes.
Q&A Questions:
1. Would you be interested in doing these following match ups?
Darth Sidious vs Vitiate (Sith Emperors)
Cin Drallig and Serra Keto vs Kao Cen Darach and Satele Shan (Battle Masters and acrobatic students)
Darth Vader vs Revan (Former Jedi turned Sith)
Mara Jade vs Galen Marek (Trained by the Sith)
2. Who do you think is the most underrated Jedi and Sith in your opinion?
3. Is it possible to do match ups of two characters who are the same but different versions of themselves (example: Anakin Skywalker vs Darth Vader)?
Might be the best surpise I've ever seen in my life.
F*CK YES! THIS IS SO GOATED!!
Sidious wins evan missed a lot of the more potent sidious TP…
What a treat, a 2 hour feast of some of the coolest Sith Lords to ever Sith going at it in a brawl at their respective peaks.
Q and A
In your opinion who win between Darth Kraty and Darth Cadeus?
Two if instead of a fight what do you think Darth Kraty and Darth Cadeus would think of each other and their plans if they had a actual conversation with each other.
Finally, three do you think Darth Kraty waited hundreds of years after Luke died or began his plans? I don't think Kraty was necessarily scared of Luke or his order but was generally wary of him and knew Luke order was still in its prime with powerful memories like Kyle Katarn and Jaina solo. I don't think it makes Kraty a coward, and if anything was a good intelligent feat to wait,for the biggest threat to his plans to die of old age then strike when the time was right with his forces. What do you think?
Nailed it my man. Krayt is a completely different level of beast. Would love to see how you pair him with revan
Damn, happy to see Sidious again in your series, will “be looking forward” to seeing whoever wins this absolute clash of dark lords!
Holy Crap, now that's a match up of the century.
Easily my most anticipated Star Wars Versus matchup since Antoine's Yoda vs Luke Skywalker.
Q&A Question-
I only now wonder how either combatant could deal with someone like Darth Caedus ?
My versus idea for next season would be
Satele Shan vs Revan (great granddaughter vs grandfather )
Mara Jade Skywalker Vs Galen Marek ( Sith Assassins for general combat)
Shaak Tii vs Darth Malak (Form 2&4 masters)
Excellent analysis and great Video. Q&A:
1 I only have One question admittedly and for that I apologize and as for the question itself that is. will you Use Darths Sion and Nhilius at some point in the future for possible Future Match ups in a Verses Series?
Finally a smart TH-camr understands krayt
