Grievous, in Legends at least, was a monster. In fact, as military leadership goes I'd put him second only to Thrawn in the Star Wars universe. There's a reason why his death was necessary to end the Clone Wars. If Palpatine had tried to end the CIS with him still there it simply wouldn't have worked.

Grievous in Canon is no joke too, he's just more opportunistic and in line with the movies. He is at his best when he can outlast, outnumber, and emotionally manipulate his opponents. Where subtlety was lost he made up for with ruthlessness, though the lack of subtlety did mean that he could be thwarted by opponents who knew how to restrain themselves in the right ways. He managed to beat Obi-Wan and destroy his ship, Depa Bilaba and her troops, he even managed to take over Dathomir and on another occasion beat Maul's forces.

I think you were unfair to General Grievous. You left out his former life as a Kalish warlord where he was nothing short of masterful in his use of tactics and strategy. It could be argued that they're two separate beings, but I'd argue that it's more akin to someone growing older and/or changing command styles as well as what he had at his disposal. The base commander is still there -- his brain is still largely the same, but he became more ruthless (and, admittedly, reckless) and better at calculation and personal command, i.e. leading from the front (which is saying something, considering his already fantastic personal combat skills as his fully-organic self). General Grievous should've gotten first on this ranking. He was much better a warrior than any of the other generals and he was the only general to master or become proficient at every single form of warfare, even if he wasn't quite as good in the specifics as General Veers or General Madine.

@robertwadsworth3411

All true and I love Grievous personally but you do have to take into account that he did lose major objectives like the battle for Bothawui. Now I'm not saying this to discredit him it's just that he did lose so while if it was just general Veers in command of the entire imperial military vs. Grievous with the entire droid army than yes I'd give it to Grievous but this is for land based generals so Veers with that being his specialty combined with earning his position through sheer skill does make him better as a purely land based general sorry.

I think you're giving Grievous too little credit (and again giving the Rebels too much).

He's as skilled a tactician as Jango Fett was a warrior - hence being hand-picked by Dooku.

General Grievous had many years of experience as a Kaleesh warrior and leader of his kind, and I feel he would have been probably #1 if it was not for Palpatine pulling his strings, and at times sabotaging attempts to improve the general droid quality. Grievous was meant only to be a spectral monster to allow Palpatine to take more and more power, a dog muzzled.

I disagree. Not with Grievous's abilities as a general ( I think he was extremely effective and intelligent) but your statement about the Separatists winning the war. The kidnapping of Chancellor Palpatine was a desperate move. It indicates that the Separatists felt is the only way to win, making it extremely likely they going to lose the war if things continued normally. Also, there was frequent discussion by the Jedi about Palpatine giving up emergency powers after the end of the war. They would not have bothered talking about this unless they both (a) felt the war would end soon and (b) the Republic and position of Chancellor would still exist. In other words, the Jedi though the Republic would soon win.

Grievous was a Kaleesh warlord before his cybernetic changes due to Count Dooku. Grievous was very very skilled in Legends, Canon really dumbs him down.

I think grievous should be #2 or even 1 if you accounted for his pre cyborg career. Like madine he was usually an underdog who had to fight against several larger factions as he tried to free his people. However when he became a cyborg it seemed that like Vader, he was in constant agony do to his augmentations, which probably explains why he became more of a monster than a man. Another reason his tactical skill could have been handicapped during the clone war is that he grew up fighting droids and utterly despised them. Due to this, he treated them like trash and probably hated them more than the clones. This hate for droids was also caused him to hate himself since a lot of people mistook him for a droid. All in all I believe that pre cyborg grievous leading a large army of Kaleeshian warriors would be more than a match for madine and could probably give veers a run for his money.

Grievous is at his best when he can outlast, outnumber and emotionally manipulate his opponents, Nahdar Vebb being an example. It's just being so ruthless means he loses all subtlely, so the tides can turn against him when his opponents know how to restrain themselves.

Sounds like canon to me

#askEck If you were a force sensitive philosopher in the star wars universe and were creating your own order of force practitioners what would be its characteristics aka philosophies, teaching methods, abilities you would focus on, perspective on the light and dark side. etc

From what I've found, General Veers survived in canon, but was severely wounded when his walker, Blizzard 1, was destroyed when a Snowspeeder crashed into the cockpit. Veers was the only survivor, but suffered major injuries to his leg, so he was forever bound to a power chair to move around.

I'll just toss this out there but when deeming a worthy general it's also important to remember not just his deeds on and off the field but also his enemies. General Grievous fought a war against not only the Jedi but in some cases his own superiors who had never intended his army to succeed, this had it's advantages but majorly gimped his army. I seriously doubt the first order or the rebel alliance would have fared as well against an enemy like the republic and their army of Jedi. General Grievous is worthy of villainous respect for that alone.

If we include the Genndy Tartarkovsky miniseries, I say Grievous.

Love Your videos, Eck!!!

Stats right now: Madine: 12% Veers: 56% Grievous: 30% Hux: 0% HAHAHAHAHAHA

I really liked Veers from the moment i first saw the Empire strikes back, maybe because he was obviously very different to the babbling officers we had seen so far (with the exception of mostly Tarkin), and i became a "fan" of sorts after playing EaW as the Empire. I think the guy is a good example of an imperial officer how they all should have been (from an in-universe perspective), and as far as i know he, while being ruthless when needed, was not a sadist and did things the most efficient way, not the most gruesome.

Kenobi, Yoda, or Anakin should have been on the list with the six leaders being Hux

Poor Grievous, only 3rd,at least he can consolate himself by stretching the others^^ As for Ecks question, i guess Super-Tactical droids are slightly superior to regular ones but with a capacity to learn beyond any other kind of inorganic? Since they can practice for an unlimited amount of time (unless destroyed) one of them would eventually surpass anything that cannot comptete with it's hardware/processing power (maybe force users strategists if they somehow manage to be completely unpredictable due to how vague the force is to fully comprehend?)

Thank you for putting Veers (my favorite character by far!) as number 1! Veers' story, especially in Legends, is absolutely fascinating, and he's the one Imperial officer who actually did his job to perfection. Completely agree with this list!

What i though before watching this video: Grevious was more like the Jedi, not really a strategist, more like leading the front line, single handle just slaughtering the more high-skilled enemies like Jedi and so letting the droids take down the clones. I really didn’t expect him to be kinda known as a “strategic genius” or anything like it, but I think it could fit him, his hate for the Jedi really makes him concentrated on defeating the enemy, because it was personal. I really love how they go into detail on these things.

I wonder how Grievous would've fared if he wasn't manipulated and set to lose by Sidious. I feel like he's too much of a wildcard to properly rank. Veers and Madine are a coin-toss for first, IMO, so I guess I agree with the list entirely.

Love these videos

A fine addition to my collection

It's too bad, though understandable, that any kind of convoluted tactics in space and on ground are pretty much exclusive to expanded universe content, be it Legends or Disney-era. Even Rebels, which had Thrawn in it, kept things simple or "vaguely implied to be complicated but never seen" during battle sequences. Looking at your opinion of this factions compared, it's really telling that, in the films only, the bottom two are major characters while the top two are pretty much just background extras. I know you'll get to this in the finale of the Vong sub-series. Won't stop me from going through the motions though. Anyways: Can you breakdown what is by far the largest space battle in the entire franchise? *The* *Battle* *of* *Yuuzhan'tar!* I have made this request: one-hundred-twenty-two times.

Clearly the Republic, since they have GENERAL KENOBI

Im glad you cover this part of starwars galactic history. Like thrawn, other commanders had a moral code!

That ending made my day!

Title: “Factions Compared” Thumbnail: *“FATions Compared”*

I really wonder... what if Veers was under the command of Thrawn... *Oof*

It's worth noting (in relation to one of your points) that in certain legends cannon that Sidous and Dooku also worked to keep the CIS from developing super weapons that were too powerful for the Republic to overcome, so that's something to keep in mind. That manipulation of the war was very much a two edged sword.

I don't usually comment on these but you're greatly undervaluing Grievous

I would rank General Grievous after Veers.

love ur vids

General Kalani was an amazing general i think for the CIS. He was able to manipulate kingships and formulate key strategies against the odds, as well as his clarity and independence, seen when he didn’t allow the shut down Command of his droids believing it was a republic trick.

Can you plz do a vid with all 6 canon factions compared. Would love to see that !

Dark Helmet Vs Darth Vader

*shouts in Italian* General Kenobi!!!

My dream battle General Grievous vs General Veers!!! Now that's worth watching because think about it there both very good strategist and taction it would be a very intense match

General Grevious. If the universe knew about all the memes he spawned, they'd immediately join the Separatists

I just want to remind everyone that under Hux’s command the first order blew up like 7 whole planets and nearly wiped out the resistance in its entirety.

There were like 8 rebels and he failed to kill them

5:13 it reminds me about Spartans? Or it's just me

I remember some line in some canon/legends material that said that Palps had underestimated Grievous and had to weaken the Separatist army before it worked too well and overran the Republic.

When i read the title my brain immediately went VEERS haha but please do a video on the space admirals so youbcan wax poetic about bel Iblis

Question is what unit would represent the Federation? Do the Gun EZ (and it's space variant the Gun Blaster) count as Federation or League Militaire units? Do they get the James Gun? Or do they get the Jegan since that was the unit that was used for the longest? Or are they stuck with GMs because that's the iconic unit?

I feel like Veers was heavily inspired by Erwin Rommel

How could you leave out the infamous General Kenobi ?

Do a video on the best Clone Commanders and what was their best effective strategy and morale and caring for their men

T-70 X-Wing VS E-Wing

So you’re telling me that rebels killed kidnapped soldiers? If that’s not wrong I don’t know what is.

I like the thumbnail. The next centricide reboot seems fantastic

What a precious outro.

Madine and Veers were played by Irish actors. #funfact

Hi how are you

In canon, a scene was cut from Empire Strikes Back that shows Veer’s death from a suicidal Snowspeeder

I would love to see a best spy factions compared! Bazine Netal, light side Cipher Nine, Nom Anor, Theron Shan, Kyle Katarn...

I have to disagree with your choice for placing Hux on this specific list instead of a clone, or jedi general. Hux is incompetent, and a fool. He hardly deserves any credit until the canon gives him a shred of it. The 1st place ruling I'd also disagree on the Rebel General was considered the best in the galaxy AFTER the war, and Veers was considered the best in the empire with him but he had not arguably hit his stride, and notability until he had already defected to the Rebel Alliance.

Canon will never give Hux any credit because his incompetence is the point. He only got to his position, like many other First Order leaders, through backstabbing and, in his case, a little bit of nepotism. Neither of those things an effective general makes, but such is the way of the dark side. He is intentionally comic relief at best.

*Hux gets 0% of the votes* "I love democracy."

Would love to see some old republic lore or characters in factions compared

Honestly hud is probably the only one a super tactical droid would beat but the reliability of them and the fact you can have so many that are the same would be very useful

Please tell me you're gonna use Grevious from Legends and not that damn 2008 series. DX

#AskEck Would you consider a video on which Star Wars faction has the best mainline starfighters? Are X-Wings better than ARC-170's? Are TIE Fighters worse than Vulture Droids? Also, if a Number 5 spot was added to this list, where would Grand General Tagge (Canon) be?

7:03 is a picture of the new geonosis map in battlefront 2

im still at the mid of the video and already know that hux will be the worst on the list
