      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.

    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.

    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.

    • @quangtrungbui675
      @quangtrungbui675 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      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.

  • @kylemc2290
    @kylemc2290 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +68

    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.

      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.

    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.

    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?

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.

      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.

      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.

    Good video but I disagree with the conclusion; Sidious gave too little praise and Krayt too much.
    Scaling to Luke isn’t really viable because they never fought, not at all, Luke considered dodging his lightning because both of them were definitely exhausted from fighting a god-tier entity. The throne of balance is just another chosen-one-esque style thing, where instead of Anakin being the one to stop Sidious, it’s Luke stopping Krayt. Doesn’t mean they are equal in power.
    Sidious buries an entire SSD with the force, mind wipes thousands of people, weakens DE Luke with mental attacks alone. How is this not mentioned more, clearly Sidious has the TK advantage, and he could probably affect Krayt to SOME degree with his mental abilities.
    Sure DE luke outdueled Sidious, but as we know Sidious losing the saber combat doesn’t mean he’s lost the fight, he bested Yoda with the force and most likely could have overwhelmed Mace. He almost BENT the saber back into Mace’s body, stopped, pretended to be weak and then OBLITERATED Mace with the lightning right after. Palpatine takes the edge in lightning for sure, regardless of how many of Krayt’s minions have X feats with lightning; none of them can compare to this really.
    Krayt’s dueling feats are overhyped, he never fought anyone of Yoda or Mace’s caliber, true Sidious may have lost to them, but he still damn well. DE Sidious is not ROTS sidious, but he’s surely improved his skills in the force and lightsaber combat; Vader never dared to challenge his master for a reason - even if OT Sidious hardly has any saber feats. So pre-prime Sidious is able to compete with Mace and Yoda, completely destroying Talzin in a saber duel when she was shown being able to hold off Mace briefly, but loses martial skill to Krayt? When Krayt has NO showings besides destroying multiple council members - who don’t have many feats themselves. Even if Palpatine “stunned” some of the council members they still got dispatched quickly, with Yoda and Mace being the only real matchups.
    The force storm not being utilized in direct combat makes sense, but also doesn’t. Yes, Sheev got cut off from the storm, so it destroyed him. But if he wasn't cut off it would have never destroyed him, we see him make multiple, with one of them TELEPORTING organic matter from one side of the galaxy to the next. Realistically if hes able to pop even a lesser one off as a ditch attempt; Krayt is obliterated.
    Extra: Sidious isn’t that physically weak, he takes a kick from Savage, who is a literal tank shown to body Dooku around multiple times.
    Extra PT 2: bold of you to assume Krayt would even get close enough to Sidious to utilize dark transfer, and it requires a lot of power.
    I feel that overall while Krayt is an excellent duelist, Sidious is simply better due to who he’s fought - he’s also not that physically superior to Sidious overwhelmingly - Sidious is definitely faster (once again due to who he has fought). Krayt is inferior in the force in RAW Power, and overall mastery. Sidious has too many feats to lose in a fight, even if he may fail to have a higher mastery at dueling, he cooks Krayt with the force in the end.

    Excellent analysis. Q&A:
    1. In your vid discussing Sith Lords that didn’t use red lightsabers, jensaarai bought up a theory of the trophy blades used by Sidious in Dark Empire that they’re the blades of Agen Kolar, Saesee Tiin, and Kit Fisto. Do you believe that theory is true or no?
    2. A Star Wars character I feel is very underrepresented in the versus community is Darth Traya. What are your thoughts on Darth Traya as a character? If you ever decided to feature her in a match, who would you put her up against?
    3. This is in reference to your Ahsoka vs Galen Marek vid from a while ago. Would you say your opinion on the outcome of that match has changed over years given how much development Ahsoka has had (Tales of the Jedi, Clone Wars Season 7, Rebels, and Ahsoka Season 1)?

Malak’s one-handed Juyo leaves him vulnerable to counterattacks, something Bane’s Forms V and III could capitalize on.

    I think it is a really good matchup with really good execution. It does annoy me though because in my opinion Sidious is the ultimate enemy and it just ended up fueling power creep in Star Wars. It also annoys me that the only way he is stronger is by the lake of apparitions fight.
    I do think there are some things that should be mentioned though. One of the reasons they were able to defeat Abeloth was by using a combined power of both the light and the dark side energy. Krayt also kinda stood back at least initially and let Luke do a lot of the fighting. They were not putting in equal effort. I also think that it is possible that Sidious would be able to compensate instead of krayt. I don’t think it would change the outcome but I do think Sidious should have one the force power catigory. It might not win him the match but I do think that Krayt wins force powers on a little sketchy logic. This might be my own bias but I think that Sidious’s feet’s are more consistent. I do agree with his lightsaber ability and physical attributes. I think those parts were done really well. I would be really interested in the fight Darth Krayt vs. Darth Cidous though I think that match has a lot of potential.

    3. Is there a possiblity that you would do a Versus Series involving non-force sensitive characters or bounty hunters in general in the near future? Ex: Grievous vs. Boba Fett (Legends for both) or Shae Vizla vs. Bo Katan.
