the man was without a doubt the most underrated sith ever. we always talk about sidious being the og sith but then you think that without bane's rule of 2, sidious and plagueis probably would've never come to power themselves or at bare minimum wouldn't have made it anywhere near as far as they did without it. for me, bane will be the og sith due to basically saving it from itself
@@LightsOnTrees how’s that? He is underrated because he literally wiped all the sith out and then him and his apprentice were on the brink of getting killed in a 2v4 which they came out on top barely. If they would’ve been killed there wouldn’t have been a rule of 2 or maybe sith in general
@@freesmoke7088 When do you see anyone talk about him as underpowered? what sith apart from palps, vader, maul and plagueis are spoken about more frequently? Of those palps actually took over the republic, maul doesn't get close and plagueis hasn't even got any canon appearances, Bane has in one of the most famous Clone Wars arcs. Only other Sith Lords that most people could name would be Revan, Nihilis and then maybe Malak, Kreia and Malgus, and Revan is the only one of those who's canon, and that's just by the barest of mentions.
Star Wars is more about the money now. The fans will buy. Despite if the new film or TV series is any good. There was the attempt at story in the prequel trilogy. Story didn't matter in the last trilogy of Star Wars films - it's all money now.
Fairly certain we can agree the Disney Star Wars is the true Elseworld Stories, I mean the comparison of origin stories of new and old canon of Bane is like a burger from McDonald's to a steak from a five-star restaurant levels of difference.
technically Bane has killed more sith and jedi than any before or after him even vader didn't put up numbers like him because of order 66 states he was the greatest jedi killer meaning tactically while Bane has killed more than 100 at a time along with the entire sith order all at once in the books
1:24 I understood that reference. On a more serious note, I wish a speedy recovery to Arris and the rest of your team. Anyway, it was really interesting to learn more about Darth Bane.
You know Disney is gonna butcher it like they have every other Legacy characters, Luke, Han,Obi-Wan,Boba Fett,Vader all have been destroyed by those Disney hacks 🤦🏽♂️
Everyone credits Darth Bane with the Discovery of "Rule of Two" but he learned it from Darth Revans Holocron found on the unknown world. Darth Bane is more notorious for bringing the practice back after the Brotherhood of Darkness and Lord Kaan, prevented the ways of the Sith Order, and tried to make everyone equals.
Can you do history of the Elementals, Cyclone and Sandman along with Kurt Conners the Lizard, Rhino, Kraven the Hunter, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Karl Fiers the Finisher, Alistair Smythe the Ultimate Spider Slayer, Living_Brain, and Prowler?
What people don’t get about the Rule of Two is that there can only be 2 sith at a time but that doesn’t there aren’t more than 2 sith around in an era coming about. But the Rule of 2 doesn’t allow for them to exist, meaning that if there’s multiple sith running around, they are forced to kill one another INTILL there’s only 2 around left. There can be more than 2 but the rule basically forces them to kill one another because they are unable to tolerate a rival sith’s ambition for power and conquest as they themselves are doing. Forcing even more infighting among them intill the 2 sith are left. It’s crazy on how power hungry on just one sith is to for there to be so much infighting like this.
Guys I love your podcast so so much. And best wishes to Arris and get well soon Do you guys you could conduct te podcast over Zoom? if you guys feel better,we would at least be able to get the episodes. Anyways, best wishes to y'all
Its ironic. Darth Bane is called one of the most important Sith due to creating the rule of two but that rule is constantly broken & disregarded in spite of bein acknowledged. Some well known instances involve the following agmonst living Sith: 1) Sidious, Dooku, Ventress & Grievous; 2) Sidious, Maul, Savage; 3) Sidious, Vader, Starkiller & my personal Fave: Jar Jar, Sidious & whoever Sidious took as his apprentice at the time be it Maul, Dooku or Vader + their apprentices.
No Grievous was not force sensitive ,also ventress was a dark side acolyte like savage at first ,which means they were assassins that never got real dark side knowledge …sidious funny enough also only broke it with maul against plagueis In legends Bane tried to break it by using essence transfer on Zannah
@@razaketh It doesnt matter whether they had a Sith title or not; or in the case of Grievous, whether hes force sensitive or not. If they were apprenticed by a Sith during a timeperiod their master was also an apprentice, it counts towards my point. Also, I thought Sidious dispatched Plagueis long before trying his hand at the take over the Senate plan?
@@z0mb055 Sidious, in legends anyway, killed Plagueis the night before he became Supreme Chancellor. They were celebrating another step in the plan coming to completion (getting Sidious control over the Republic), Plagueis's drink was tainted, Sidious took his time torturing and killing his mentor. All the while Maul was about to take on Obi Wan and Quo Gon for the last time. Canon wise, not much has been given on how or when Plagueis was succeeded officially by Sidious.
Bane didn't wear anceint sith armor, his body was encased in insects called Orbalisks that fed off his darkside energy but their shells protected him from light sabers This video has so much wrong information I don't even want to share it
Honestly, I disagree, the rule of two, though clever was the sith's greatest downfall, but Bane's idea of working in the shadows was one of the best in all of Star Wars.
@@Levidieter_ eh, philosophy aside the dude was a monster. Knowledge of the Dark Side was unparalleled and his swordsmanship was good enough to handle 3 Jedi at once. One of them was a weapons master and they were all bolstered by a 4th Jedi's battle meditation. Absolutely nuts. Also he's my favorite Sith so I'm totally not biased at all lol
Can't wait to hear more about the other Sith, Bane is my favorite. But let's not even tease the rumors of ALL 3 being in Acolyte. At best they will get a mention like they do everywhere else. Please don't spread click bait rumors because there is no truth to these
True. You cant have a show with malak in without revan, likewise nihilus without sion and treya. Im not bothered by malak or revan, but z sith triumvirate show would be cool, and id love to get a darth bane movie trilogy. But, this is disney, id have no faith in them to do anything right...
I still find the "Rule of Two" to be a huge crutch. We've seen Jedi Masters and even Knights that could kill many Sith Masters, and if one were to kill both Sith Master AND Apprentice then the line ends and so do the Sith. It feels right, but only in the context of the Brotherhood of Darkness. If Bane had fought to try and recreate the Sith Empire of old, then the Sith would become a force to be reckoned with.
Bane didn’t create the the rule of two. Raven created the concept, Darth bane was the first to use it. Bane learned it from raven Holocron, then he crushed it. Legends is not the else-world of Star Wars. Disney is taking parts of it to this day. Legends came first, then Disney bought it.
“Two there shall be, no more, no less. A Master and an Apprentice. One to embody the power, the other to crave it”
The buzz for star wars has died
Anakin almost did that to kill Palpatine

Darth bane is possibly the most talked about sith next to Revan and Nihilis.

Would love to see a animated movie of the Bane Trilogy books. It would print money!

@@Happin3ess LOL It was always about money 🤣
I have the Darth Bane Trilogy books and would love to see him come to life. Glad he's getting more exposure and that he's still canon.
Probably the best of the legends imo
Me too the books are better than what disney put out
No, Disney would probably water him down and ruin him
Fairly certain we can agree the Disney Star Wars is the true Elseworld Stories, I mean the comparison of origin stories of new and old canon of Bane is like a burger from McDonald's to a steak from a five-star restaurant levels of difference.
The creator of the rule of two!

Lol, he wasn't "given" the name Bane; he chose it because it was a source of anger. Because his father would call him "the bane of my existence."
Love you guys! Hope you all get back to health ASAP, your Comrades will be here when you return!
1:24 I understood that reference. On a more serious note, I wish a speedy recovery to Arris and the rest of your team. Anyway, it was really interesting to learn more about Darth Bane.
Can't wait to see a live action adaptation of Darth Bane
You know Disney is gonna butcher it like they have every other Legacy characters, Luke, Han,Obi-Wan,Boba Fett,Vader all have been destroyed by those Disney hacks 🤦🏽♂️
Just want them to animate these stories and show them on the big or small screen. Especially since they are finished with the Skywalker story
I love Darth Bane
This is a great history, and I really appreciate that you guys covered the OG continuity as well as the currently embraced one!
Everyone credits Darth Bane with the Discovery of "Rule of Two" but he learned it from Darth Revans Holocron found on the unknown world. Darth Bane is more notorious for bringing the practice back after the Brotherhood of Darkness and Lord Kaan, prevented the ways of the Sith Order, and tried to make everyone equals.
Still can't forgive, and never will forgive them, for what they've done to Star Wars, I will always love Legends, and see that as cannon
He my favorite characters and because he created rules of two movie
Thanks for watching
Expect more videos soon
DM right away i have something for you ☺
Thank you guys i love your video and hope see more in future
Heck Yeah!
Hands down one of the best trilogies ever.
Thanks for watching
Expect more videos soon

We need more star wars content on this channel
Bane has always been my favourite Sith Lord
Batman's rogue gallery's getting bigger these days. We need some Darth Joker shit!
A Darth Bane video on my birthday, this means something.
Recuperense pronto todos! Su contenido es buenísimo!! Saludos desde Ecuador!!
His series was def my favorite
"i'm calling witches"... i love you man... lol
This guy is likely the most important characters in star wars from the time before the movies
Remember back when before covid and...... Aris always get sick. Get well soon man and everyone at Variant! Keep healthy and safe!
From the title of the video alone, I thought this was a DC Comics Crossover with Star Wars
I’ll forever hate Disney for removing banes original canon
You and me both!
Add me to your roster.
So when are you going to do history of DC Despero since he is one of the biggest Justice League Villians from the Comics?
"As a man of science, I'm calling witches" 😂
Bane was the best story in the history of Star Wars. Changing it does not do it justice. They need to embrace it, orbalisks and all.
Can you do history of the Elementals, Cyclone and Sandman along with Kurt Conners the Lizard, Rhino, Kraven the Hunter, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Karl Fiers the Finisher, Alistair Smythe the Ultimate Spider Slayer, Living_Brain, and Prowler?
I love Arris but would love to see Tim do one video a week or something too
Loved the books. I hope they don't make a movie about Darth bane because I don't want Disney to ruin his character.
Not even the Dark Side of the Force cared about who he was until he put on the mask.
"as a man of science i think it's witches" Tim 2022
Read all the books. Would like to see a tv series or a movie about him. A tv series would probably work best . Just 3 seasons
Legends says that Bane attempted the essence transfer and failed and that’s how Zannah defeated him
Did she tho???
@@Fitzgeralduh it's pretty much confirmed by drew that she won

Ok, but if Keanu reeves isn't cast as revan imma be upset
Variant...you guys are doing great...
"How in the name of Zeus's butthole?" Lol I'm totally using that 🤣
I was thinking the other day “WHERE’S THE PODCAST!!”
I generally love this video.
It was in the books on how Darth Zannah took over the Dark Lord of the Sith mantle.
I frekinnn love Darth Nihiulis. I hope they add him :(
finally a star wars vid!
Probably just transferred into his apprentice and likely lives on
You made that very Unenjoyable
Will you guys do the other two darths
Yes. Coming soon.
HA I was JUST re-listening to Bane Triology audible. Just cause 😁
Guys I love your podcast so so much.
And best wishes to Arris and get well soon
Do you guys you could conduct te podcast over Zoom?
if you guys feel better,we would at least be able to get the episodes.
Anyways, best wishes to y'all
get well soon team. 👍🏽
wishing a speedy recovery. tc.
Darth Bane, simply put, is the baddest mother*** to ever do it. In fact, we don't even really know when he stopped doing it
I imagined Bane from Batman as a sith lord when I read the title lol
Greatest Sith Lord Ever!
That would be sidious
@@Cyrus-rodn45 That would be Bane
No Sidious without Bane’s implementation of the rule of two. Just sayin 🤷🏻♂️
Bane killed more sith and jedi than sidious
Great video
Cool episode.
Lol, love how your talking cadence is the same as ares
Who came back to complain that Acolyte isn’t what it should be
wait. Darth Nihilus is coming on screen?(not talking about games)
WWOOOOOO!!!
The jedi didn't eliminate the sith.... Bane did by using a thought bomb
“I’m a science man but uhhhhh…… what the heck man.”
People forget Darth Revan drafted the idea of rule of 2.
Bane is the sith'ari the chosen one of the sith. He is anakins counter-part.
Wow I really find That Character Interesting already Man I like Cool Villains a lot Too!😉☮️
Can you do history of the Justice Society of America and the Seven Soldiers of Victory?

Hey do you think we will see other Star Wars movies or TV series like one about Luke Skywalker in his prime in Canon powerful he is
If they bring back Malak, but not Reven, I'm gonna loose it.
He didn't create the rule of two. He resurrected the rule. There were old texts about the rule that he read at the brotherhood sith academy.
Did anyone else see the ending of Dynasty of Evil that Bane somehow took over Zana, or perhaps put his soul into her?
Bane didn't create the rule he only brought it back reading ancient sith holocrons he learned that the sith lost their ways
o/
Thats the first time ever heard their was some form of the rule of 2 BEFORE darth bane
@@chheinrich8486 yeah revan had the original holocrons he had his own form when it was him and malak
Well wishes to everyone.
So he took on a fine a$$ apprentice, then made a rule saying “only us two allowed”. I see you darth bane, i see you
He's a big guy
This sithlord is kinda Op like Sheev palpatine even though his last name does sound like one of Batman,s villains Bane from Dc🦾🦾.
