It's terrifying how you can visibly see in this scene that he's not even trying that hard (obviously he's still trying but you know what I mean), because he wants to torture them for his amusement. Scenes like this are what make Grievous terrifying. He works best when he's depicted as a sadistic hunter. He lives for the hunt and the thrill that comes with it.

@@matthewbibby8921 Not only that, but The clone wars was a mature kids show. Which means while it was dark and mature a lot of the time, it was still for kids at the end of the day. ( But adults could enjoy it too. ) Plus, The clone wars was a Star wars story, star wars is a story of good vs evil so of course the villains are gonna lose most of the time. The jedi are the good guys/girls while Grievous is a villain so of course he's going to lose most fights against them. You can't kill off every protagonist character whenever they fight a specific villain just because some people like that villain's design better. That would be stupid. That's why I always resent the opinion that 2d Grievous is better than 3d Grievous because he is a villain, as a kid I never once wanted him to win and he's no supposed to win because he's evil. Like what did people expect? Watching a cartoon where a villain fights a hero and expecting the villain to win is like watching a fox fight try and a wolf like who do you think is win?

We see him cheat with his arms here, despite clearly not needing to, since there were several times in the fight where he could have killed her instantly, yet chose to keep the fight going. This makes scenes like where he cheats against Nahdar Webb and Eeth Koth seem ad though he didn't actually need do to win, he just chose to reinforce the hopelessness of his opponent.

Grievous does care about proving his superiority in combat, just not against foes that are so clearly beneath him, like Nadhar and this Nightsister. He "cheated" with Koth primarily because he was trying to capture him, rather than kill him. Since the guards standing next to Grievous didn't move in to protect Grievous when Koth pushed him, it would seem like Grievous deliberately let that happen to create an opening; with Grievous seemingly having his guard down, Koth would get tunnel vision and move in for the kill, creating an opening for the guards behind him to zap him.

Hell the only ones who were even remotely successful against him were Obi Wan and Kit Fisto.

*THIS!!* is how you handle General Grievous compared to his shoehorned, wasted and unnecessary appearance in the Young Jedi Arc from Season 5 of _Clone Wars._ It's also a bit unfortunate that seeing Grievous new character model, make it very unlikely we will get the unfinished Crystal Crisis and Son of Dathomir arcs in completed animation which is where Grievous was a badass and played an actual role and purpose

@@samuelketner1391 I disagree and In all honesty Grievous was just added in the Young Jedi arc as another "Bantha Fodder" threat beside Hondo Ohnaka and his Gang, compared to Grievous' role in the 4th Season ("Gungan General and "Massacre") and the unfinished "Crystal Crisis" and Son of Dathomir arcs where he played a role and purpose. All Grievous did in the Young Jedi arc was launch a Surprise attack against Obi-Wan Kenobi's Republic fleet, took over the Ship only for him to flee when Obi-Wan planted a bomb on the ship then he returns to Florrum and launches an invasion and telling _"We're taking over the planet by orders of Dooku"_ why if you were fleeing from a rebublic ship that was about to self destruct. Even I'm disappointed their was no dialogue between Ahsoka's fight with Grievous along with the fact that Ahsoka, The Younglings, Hondo and the pirates never fighting off Grievous forces cause literally it felt like a heist escape leading to Grievous just gloating in victory laughing when our Heroes Flee. At least with Season 4 (e.g. Gungan General and "Massacre") and especially in the unfinished "Crystal Crisis in Utapau" arc along with the "Son of Dathomir" arc respectively, Grievous played an actual role and purpose in those two arcs, compared to his shoehorned wasted role in the Young Jedi Arc where he was just "forced" in that arc cause the writers were spinning their wheels to drag the arc into 4 parts and felt that Hondo and his Pirate gang being the Antagonists "weren't enough" to be a threat to Ahsoka and the Younglings. On top of that, Young Jedi along with Onderon and/or to a lesser degree D-Squad didn't need to have 4 episodes when literally Young Jedi should've been a stand alone episode or a 2-3 part episode arc, and literally the Young Jedi arc really didn't need General Grievous, regardless if it tied in to the Season 5 premiere of "Revival" when Hondo mentioned to Obi-Wan on Grievous wrecking his base.

@@samuelketner1391 It still doesn’t justify Grievous shoehorned inclusion in the Young Jedi.

Son of dathomir is unfortunately not canon which is such a shame. Thst comic was GOOD

What makes this so good imo is that they’ve gone back to what made grievous so badass in 2003: they treat him like a horror movie monster The first thing we see of him is his first kill, and from that point on he says nothing, just cackling and laughing occasionally as he fights the nightsister and watches the others get killed. On top of that, you can tell from how he picks her up and throws her, only to let her pick her weapons up again whilst laughing to himself, that he’s toying with her and letting this fight drag out for his own amusement… And the cherry on top is how insane he sounds as he repeats “RUN” to Morgan over and over, that combined with how awesome his voice sounds makes him look so awesome and threatening here, it’s such a shame we didn’t see this in the clone wars and probably won’t see much more of this in future content either

I honestly want to see Grievous' origin story in another season of the "Tales" series. Call it "Tales of the Republic" and show his upbringing, his first battle on Hypori and then his kidnapping of the chancellor.

It’s finally nice to see the new Grievous model in action instead of just seeing him for like a second.

Watched The Phantom Menace yesterday and I came back to this immediately after realizing that "Wipe them out, all of them" is exactly what Sidious said to Gunray and the Trade Federation about the Gungan army.

Now this is the best portrayal of General Grievous I've seen yet. Intimidating, like a warlord, unlike the cowardly excuse he has been seen as all this while

I love him I was so happy he returned

Honestly the way he shouted run repeatedly like a total dickhead showed both his ruthlessness but I’m not going to lie it was also funny to.

The closest we could get for 2003 Grievous.

This is why Grievous is probably my favorite character in star wars media. Hes ruthless and psychotic, with martial skill enforce his terrifying presence.

I love this version of him, his design is amazing having a look more similar to ROTS and being more slender yet he still has the same amount of presence as he did in the 2007 Clone Wars due to him wearing his cape plus his personality is on point, genuinely didn’t think we’d get a good portrayal of the character in anything outside the 2003 Clone Wars
