He did try and fail to destroy the Empire. I wouldn't say that's very aspiring for a Sith. Especially because the in fighting is what made the Empire so weak even after huge wins. Like retaking Corellia.
How Malgus or Bane have not been brought more into cannon is beyond me, fantastic characters, much better than anything in the current Star Wars universe.
Malgus killed his own wife instead of letting others use that attachment against him. Then he broke the Sith Emperor's hold on him, truly living up to "Through Victory, my chains are Broken. The Force shall free me". Vader's anger was different from Malgus' anger, it is like an uncontrolled flood versus a concentrated stream of water (like a water jet cutter) able to slice a mountain in half.
A lot of people don't understand Vader like you did. He was based off traditional Greek tragedy. He had no chance. Malgus was a black Knight, a looming shadow. Vader? Behind his robotics, his hate, his power...he's broken. He is despair incartne. That is the opposite of Malgus. Vaders misunderstood.
@@alainhernandez8767 It's because Lucas wrote Vader to show that dark side bad. Note how all the "greatest" Sith are extended universe only. Lucas didn't want the Sith to be "great".
Darth Malgus is my favorite character from the Old Republic, and he’s in my top five of favorite Sith. His arc is entertaining because he’s one of the very few Sith who see past their delusions.
he was THE ONE guy who could have created a sith empire that actually was sustainable. also he was big on equality and letting people prove their merit through POWER rather then simply being stepped upon and never given a chance.
Malgus: you were deceived, and now your Republic shell Fall. One of the greatest lines he's ever said I love Malgus he's so cool literally Darth Vader before Darth Vader he is so freaking awesome and I hope we see more of his story expand. Disney: the Old Republic is not canon Me and the fandom: it is Cannon to me
Could've sworn they said that the old republic was actually still canon. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if that is the case, then like you; I consider it canon still. It went so hard! 😍
I have always been a fan of Darth Traya. She saw through the failings of both the Light and Dark Side and tried to end both philosophies for the sake of all. Both the Jedi and Sith betrayed her which drove her to the point of destroying the Force
Darth Malgus has become my favorite Sith. I have read only a couple of Star Wars books a while back but forgot most of what happened. Thank you for all your knowledge!
Love Malgus, wish they would do a full series on his rise. Deceived is one of my favorite stand alone books. Malgus was what the Sith should have been, absolute power and domination.
In some weird/twisted ways I do think Sidious cared for his appearances on some twisted level. For Sidious to gift Vader one of his most prized possessions and when reading it thought of the similarities to Vader shows me that he at least kept him in his thoughts. I don’t mean care in the way most people would think of, but at least thought of on a more favorable level than the other people of the galaxy
Tbf he had known Vader since he was just a boy, so there would at least be some small level of paternalism in the care he had for him. From all accounts it did seem that Sidious truly did want to see Vader grow in power and potential, the same way a father would his son. He never took a second apprentice while he was master to Vader either, unlike every other apprentice of his and nearly every other Sith Lord alike
If you think about it, that shows how immensely powerful and connected Palpatine is in the dark side because he didn't have that raw anger that Malgus had, that's why he tried to push Anakin. I really think that Anakin's anger really subsided once Obi-Wan died, he really had no one else to hate, so there was nothing to sustain the raw anger that kept him tethered to the dark side
Malgus is definitely a favorite of mine, because he’s basically an ancestor to Vader. Also, speaking of love, were there any hidden holocrons that detail any kind of relationship, however brief, between a Jedi and Sith?

Darth Malgus, a formidable and relentless presence, emerges as a truly captivating character within the Star Wars universe. His unwavering commitment to the Dark Side of the Force is nothing short of awe-inspiring, representing the epitome of power born from sacrifice. Malgus' mastery of the Force and his commanding intelligence amalgamate into a force to be reckoned with, challenging all who dare to oppose him. What sets Malgus apart is the remarkable fusion of his boundless hatred with a singular, unswerving purpose. His capacity to channel this immense hate into a focused, goal-driven pursuit is a testament to his character's complexity. It is this very duality that makes him not only a fearsome antagonist but also a character of profound depth and intrigue. As an ardent fan of the Star Wars lore, I find Darth Malgus to be an enthralling embodiment of the Sith ethos. His presence in "Star Wars: The Old Republic: Deceived" leaves an indelible mark on readers, compelling them to revisit his story repeatedly. I wholeheartedly recommend immersing oneself in this captivating narrative, as it offers a glimpse into the darkest corners of the Force and the relentless determination of a Sith Lord who has left an enduring legacy in the Star Wars galaxy.
I just want to say I wish we could see a lot more Sith than just the few we see in the movies and shows I mean I want their to be just as much Sith as Jedi and btw great video
I think he valued the effect on Vader more than he valued Malgus himself. I don't honestly think Palps understood love and therefore could not really comprehend the effect of loss. He could however get some insight as to how this loss thing could be used to manipulate Vader. And as he spent years trying to accomplish this we can assume it was high on his priority list. I also think that it may have been inspiration for what he created in Vader. Depending on WHEN he obtained the journal. That info would be telling...
I bought the CE of SWTOR. Have a small Malgus statue and all. And I can certainly say Malgus was an endless fountain of anger, and hatred. However, he still had the presence of mind, and awareness to lead. However, Malgus admitted that sometimes, his bloodlust would drive him to nearly kill his own soldiers.
There should be a Star Wars What if video called: "What if in Revenge of the Sith, Darth Malgus became Darth Sideous's new apprentice after Count Dooku insted of Anakin?"
Or...a What if video called: "What if George Lucas became a plumber instead of a film maker? We'd be discussing the probability of Kirk actually being able to hear Spock's voice from his disembodied brain in the "Spock's Brain" episode.
I love your videos. I watch them everyday. I just have one small request. Could you possibly Increase the auditory volume of your videos? I like to listen to your videos while driving down the road and sometimes I have a hard time hearing it because of road noise.
I believe that the emotions of anger, hatred, pain, and suffering are the keys to the Darkside, and in my honest opinion, the Sith code is the conduit to that power
I love him there's an old republic book that gives his perspective for a quite a bit of the story and it's easily one of my favorite depictions of a sith in a book I've read
the true reason Malgus was so important to Sidious was that he inspired the way Sidious wished to go out: thrown down a giant shaft in the middle of his throne room.
the stupendous wave I have watched your videos and I think you give some good advice I write some good fanfics have a good day and may the force be with you
Both Malgus and Vader were not only evil, sadistic, cruel and brutal men, they also based their lives on a fundamental flaw of logic. “Power”, the ability to compel others to obey your wishes, is not an end in and of itself, but only a MEANS to an end. No wise man seeks power for its own sake, for that is purposeless; you seek power in order to achieve a goal or purpose. The reason Sidious himself seems often discontent after achieving his greatest victory and destroying the Jedi and raising the Empire is because now he no longer had a purpose. He eventually found another one, achieving immortality, but even that is kind of a cheat; if you get immortality then you needn’t fear death, but then what? Now you are again without purpose and this will never end until you make yourself pursue a new goal. Lucas clearly intended his villains to be such men of power, but of deeply flawed vision, and its what redeems them from being the cut out bad guys from which he drew inspiration for the original trilogy. Such one dimensional villains are boring because their goals are boring : make the hero suffer, take over the world … yawn. Seen that. But a villain who kills his own lover out of twisted philosophy? Now that’s interesting.
This video reminds me of a reply I got to a comment I wrote more than 4 years ago mind you. I commented on a video about Malgus that I love Malgus, he is like Vader without his limitations and someone replied, once again I wanna stress that I wrote it more than 4 years ago and someone replied: "What limitations?! Malgus and Vader have different strenghts and weaknesses, you are just a Malgus fanboy". The fact that someone saw a comment I made 4 years ago and decided to write this to me says a lot, I guess he is the Vader fanboy, I didnt even say anything bad about Vader, I just mentioned that Malgus was more mobile
Curious really - Palps enjoyed a raucous panto villain laugh and was partial to a bit of trolling where as Malgus was permanently livid like a dad who's forever stubbing his toe. Can't imagine there'd be much in the way of small talk when Palps corners him by the punch table and tells him he's his biggest fan.
@@guyverjay1289 if you want to know vaders motivations then you need not look farther than his truest quote "what could you possibly hate that would enable you to have such power...asked a stormtrooper vader stared on for a moment and replied myself"
I don't think either were wrong to be so enamored with Darth Malgus, but I think its because of Malgus Vader himself eventually became redeemed into the light, as while Malgus and Vader killed their lovers the intent behind them were vastly different. but paradoxically this want to aspire to be like Malgus brought Vader into a mindset that when Luke was finally discovered Vader lost a great deal of his anger even if he had not realized it.
I'm not saying it was Malgus directly that caused his redemption, or taking anything away from Luke's own part, but Vader tried his hardest to forget about Padme, and embrace the qualities he shared with Malgus, the thing is when you put so much effort into forgetting something paradoxically you only end up remembering them more, so it wasn't Malgus but it was his trying to draw a connection with the ancient Sith Lord that led to him obsessing over Luke which then led to him being redeemed ultimately.
@@andreijohnson3953 um what? Do you not comprehend what you read? He isn't saying that Malgus redeemed Vader, he's saying that the lessons from Malgus journal and trying to follow the same road is what left the opening for Luke to redeem Vader after Vader learned he had children and wasn't alone after all. The way Vader obsessed over Luke caused a lessening of Vader's anger and hate and left room for the lightside.
Sidious never understood that Vader only saw the dark side as a means to an end. it doesn’t seem like Vader ever cared to be a Sith Lord, in his mind it was all he had left so he trudged through the rest of his misery until he met Luke.
Actually, Sidious did know that Vader only saw it as a means to the end, because he used it as the primary means to recruit Anakin the first place. It didn't particularly matter to Sidious that it was the only thing Vader had left because the way Sidious saw it, Vader was nothing more than someone who could do his dirty work until a much better prospect came along.
I remember I showed SWTOR to some of my friends back in the day. All of them were like (about Malgus): "He looks like a cheap ass Vader copy." They played the game for some time and learned: Malgus was the OG
Darth Malgus was the Second True Sith Emperor never forget that in his research he was inspired by ancient sith writing's if something cannot be fixed it must be destroyed and rebuilt he followed the ancient wisdom of pureblood sith Emperor Malgus was an inspiration to all future Sith to follow he was perhaps the second greatest Sith from Vitiate's Empire next to Dark lord Jadus
Would be nice to see a video about Malgus being Vader Master..... Both of their Lady's joined them.... I am pretty sure you could think of a way to end it??????
Building his Empire on the power of anger was both a wise idea, and the seed of its destruction. The Rebellion was built on anger as well, anger against the brutality and injustice of the Empire, but also on hope. The hope that they could overcome. In the end, it's arguably what helped them win.
This is why Malgus is so powerful, his own influence made Vader and Palpatine, two of the strongest sith lords to ever exist admire him, Malgus was a true sith, a true warrior
Anger is when there is some power you want and are denied. So the more power you have the less angry you will be. So there's a negative feedback loop there. If it were the other way around, if you gained more power from the calm satisfaction of attaining power, that would be a positive feedback loop which would ever expand. Just some food for thought.
This is extremely twisted and dark. I understand this but.. it's twisted. Vader followed Malgus for years. But in the end there were differences. Malgus was extremely powerful. One of the greatest Sith. May the Force be with you too :)
Even with Vaders anger.. anger against Sidious.. himself.. the Jedi.. Obi-Wan.. it pales in comparison to what Malgus had become. Chaining him in that space station only makes him more angr, giving him more power.
I am wondering, if Palpatine would give him journal, if he didn't suffer defea and lost his limbs etc. (But still killed his wife etc.) To me, its seems like he wants to use his injuries to fuel his anger to strength his connection with dark side to compensate crippling injuries that limited him. It could be way, he intended to restore him to his chosen one potential, purely through dark side connection. (Not saying he succeed, just it could be try to achieve this.)
This explains why Sidious made his empire nearly dystopian in nature instead of perfecting what the Republic should have been. If it helps fuel his powers why not right?
malgus understood that one of the key attributes of the force was conflict and he relished in becoming the very avatar of conflict. the main difference between him and vader that i see is that malgus was conscious of his actions and intent while vader was ruled by his unconscious actions which ultimately led to feelings of powerlessness. sidious clearly used this to keep him on a short leash. sidious also perverted the teachings of malgus and bane by reflecting hate onto the galaxy to ensure his survival. the very notion of parasitism. the strongest sith stood tall, and strong plumming the unknown depths of knowledge in the force.
Thank you these videos I've learned so much about Star wars lore and some of these videos even helped me fill in the lore and story gaps of some of the games I've been playing. I picked up Star wars Knights of the old republic the sith Lords recently and it was so cool fully understanding the back stories of some of the characters in the game. Cheers man
i notice that most sith stop at gaining victory in the sith code. malgus completely internalized the sith code and truly broke his chains. few sith have been as sucessful as malgus in that regard.
Malgus is DEFINITELY the kind of Sith that other Sith should aspire to be. He's such a good character as well as an incredibly powerful Sith Lord.
Darth Malgus is basically kinda like a Prototype Sith'Ari.
He did try and fail to destroy the Empire. I wouldn't say that's very aspiring for a Sith. Especially because the in fighting is what made the Empire so weak even after huge wins. Like retaking Corellia.

Darth Malgus was the Second True Sith Emperor never forget that in his research he was inspired by ancient sith writing's if something cannot be fixed it must be destroyed and rebuilt he followed the ancient wisdom of pureblood sith Emperor Malgus was an inspiration to all future Sith to follow he was perhaps the second greatest Sith from Vitiate's Empire next to Dark lord Jadus
And Darth marr, but your point still stands.
Malgus is in fact, actually superior to Vader in every way. Vader has plot armor though, which is invincible.
How flattering, he said darth malgus was purely dedicated to the dark side
Would be nice to see a video about Malgus being Vader Master.....
Both of their Lady's joined them....
I am pretty sure you could think of a way to end it??????
My Sith Warrior fought alongside Malgus briefly. I sent him to sell my unwanted loot and enjoyed it.
He wasn't like a demon, he WAS a demon.
Building his Empire on the power of anger was both a wise idea, and the seed of its destruction. The Rebellion was built on anger as well, anger against the brutality and injustice of the Empire, but also on hope. The hope that they could overcome. In the end, it's arguably what helped them win.
Who controlled Darth Malgus,who was above him, the BEST SITH LORD OF THEM ALL.
True vitiate was the best He made malgus❤❤❤
I would have been honored to learn the ways of the dark side from malgus. Using one’s anger as a fuel for power isn’t a simple task and he perfected.
The Lava bank didn't take Vader's leg and arm that was Obi-Wan Kenobi
Me 2012: This Malgus is just a Vader rip-off...
Me 2023: Malgus is the greatest Sith that ever lived!!!!
What book or comic is this from?
Malgus deserves the sithari title, the ultimate sith emperor.
Malgus is an absolute legend for sure. But Bane bar none is the greatest Sith to ever hold the title in my eyes.
Agree 100%. I wish we could get a movie or show about Bane.
a entire series dedicated to the ancient sith lords like Bane Revan Vitiate Tuluk Horde would be awesome
This is why Malgus is so powerful, his own influence made Vader and Palpatine, two of the strongest sith lords to ever exist admire him, Malgus was a true sith, a true warrior
Anger is when there is some power you want and are denied. So the more power you have the less angry you will be. So there's a negative feedback loop there. If it were the other way around, if you gained more power from the calm satisfaction of attaining power, that would be a positive feedback loop which would ever expand. Just some food for thought.
This sound track can work for Metroid.
This is extremely twisted and dark. I understand this but.. it's twisted. Vader followed Malgus for years. But in the end there were differences. Malgus was extremely powerful. One of the greatest Sith. May the Force be with you too :)
Even with Vaders anger.. anger against Sidious.. himself.. the Jedi.. Obi-Wan.. it pales in comparison to what Malgus had become. Chaining him in that space station only makes him more angr, giving him more power.
background ambiance audio is too loud, good video tho
Darth Malgus is my favorite character in Star Wars!
For sith type🤘
For jedi type 🖖
I am wondering, if Palpatine would give him journal, if he didn't suffer defea and lost his limbs etc. (But still killed his wife etc.) To me, its seems like he wants to use his injuries to fuel his anger to strength his connection with dark side to compensate crippling injuries that limited him. It could be way, he intended to restore him to his chosen one potential, purely through dark side connection. (Not saying he succeed, just it could be try to achieve this.)
So Malgus was seen as someone to potentially replace Vader just like Galen, And Luke were yeah.
Anakin kills Padme: NOOOOOOOOOO
Malgus Kills his wife: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This explains why Sidious made his empire nearly dystopian in nature instead of perfecting what the Republic should have been. If it helps fuel his powers why not right?
Reupload ? Stg I’ve seen this same thumbnail, title and video in the past year
Malgus was basically the mirror opposite of Revan - and just an absolute beast beyond any comparison.
all time fav Malgus
malgus understood that one of the key attributes of the force was conflict and he relished in becoming the very avatar of conflict. the main difference between him and vader that i see is that malgus was conscious of his actions and intent while vader was ruled by his unconscious actions which ultimately led to feelings of powerlessness. sidious clearly used this to keep him on a short leash. sidious also perverted the teachings of malgus and bane by reflecting hate onto the galaxy to ensure his survival. the very notion of parasitism. the strongest sith stood tall, and strong plumming the unknown depths of knowledge in the force.
Thank you these videos I've learned so much about Star wars lore and some of these videos even helped me fill in the lore and story gaps of some of the games I've been playing. I picked up Star wars Knights of the old republic the sith Lords recently and it was so cool fully understanding the back stories of some of the characters in the game. Cheers man
i notice that most sith stop at gaining victory in the sith code. malgus completely internalized the sith code and truly broke his chains. few sith have been as sucessful as malgus in that regard.
I think Vader did kill Padme. He unknowingly used Force drain on her to keep himself alive after his defeat.
CUZ HE BIG MAD
