Silly Rebels. Without your Plot Armor, you have nothing.
ToLegitt2Quit THANK YOU! Someone who understands
Glad I made your day sir ^^
ToLegitt2Quit Exactly
True that.
Plot weapons if mass destruction
How rebels were baited by the senate.
Darth Vader so true
Aint nobody more slicker and devious than the Senate
Darth Vader yes because he is the Senate
Darth Vader It seems we are subscribed to the same youtube channels lol :-)
Darth Vader if Palpatine is the Senate then what are you? A vader?
The rebels had only a dozen spies on the capital of the Galactic Empire, which also houses the headquarters of a number of important agencies and organisations, and has a population of over one trillion? Damn, the Imperial Security Bureau must be really good at their jobs.
ISB was likely a pretty large organization also makes sense to keep a very close eye on your capital
Plus Palpatine or the Inquisition could sense it
Those were the rebels' best spies. I'm sure they had a lot more spies stationed at Coruscant.
Imagine all the CCTV cameras they had.
He's so evil, but he loves it. You gotta respect him for that.
RedLetterMedia?
Naturally!
He’s just having a good time - living his best life ;)
@SidtheKid Palpatine does not feel any guilt, he was always narcissistic psychopath, right from the birth
@@darkomarkovic9323 and i love the guy i would absolutely love to be a sith in starwars.
*_"such senseless brutality"_*
Emperor Palpatine Im going to love watching you get beat by Vader in episode 6 now . I'm going to think " Ya he deserved that " .
There’s to many of us. We shall come together to form an army of unlimited power!!
You seduced ani
Emperor Palpatine goooooood we shal make it happen
Acuraintegraman1 Please seduce me too :-)
Gotta say, defeating a real Royal Guard takes a lot of skill! Respect to him even though he couldn't finish his mission
Nusstorias Then apparently going rogue and “causing problems” for the very rebellion he once supported.
It was totally epic that Palpatine warped a rebel against the terrorists
Cameron Melvin
I guess he saw how out of their league the rebels were and no longer supported them, but still supporter the same cause they did.
I’m wondering if he deliberately had some of his worst guards seeing as they would’ve all died in the explosion, to minimise waste but it would also somewhat explain being able to defeat them.
@@irrelevant1242
The vid says the rebels are the highest trained soldiers. That's why they defeated the guard. All be it one but still impressive.
Its treason then
This meme is dead, just like Palpatine.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
The senate will decide your fate
I AM THE SENATE
Dr. Badtimes not yet
So Palpatine was imprisoning himself? There were Senate Prisoners, and Palpatine _is_ the Senate so...
Toad 1000 lol
Toad 1000 your comment is gold
Joshua Marais :D
Toad 1000 woo you responded quickly
Joshua Marais lol I’m almost always on RUclips. (Or have my iphone/iPad near me).
This is why Palpatine keeps it an absolute secret that he is a Sith and is able to use the Force. It means people are always going to try assassination plots against him that are never gonna work, because he has the fuckin Force, which they don't take account of.
You know he loves it when people try thinking “hah just an old man” just to pull a lightsaber and one shot them or lightning bolt them
Easy, he just dressed up as a man named John, perfect target for those rebel snipers
*Shots fired... literally*
whitepiano23 Did it hit him first, or his partner next to him? *Conspiracy theories initialized*
whitepiano23 I don’t get please explain
Jake From State-Farm
John F Kennedy
cadkls oh
Young fool. Only now, at the end, do you understand!
NOT YET
Eric Morang where is that from?
Jah N Return of The Jedi.
Not going to lie, the new canon is getting some pretty cool stories! I still want my Revan though
HyperGaming Lol me too. Give this Canon a chance to expand first.
You know you've seen too many Star Wars videos when you're just waiting to get angry at Lockjaw.
TheAxeManGamer who's lockjaw?
TheAxeManGamer My god Lockjaw is the WORST whenever someone uploads a canon video he comments saying canon sucks
HyperGaming But canon is getting so good
Palpatine was a genius
Christian Joseph Confirmed...
palpatine is dumb in this part, he blew up an expensive prison instead of wiping out the rebels with ease
Christian Joseph yes you are correct
Palpatine was dumb on Endor.
Angelo Luna I think he just did it because he just wanted to do something evil because he enjoyed seeing people suffer
So Emperor Palpatine had the high ground
MrMike1790 Literally
@@ArcturusOTE LITERALLLLLY
Oh yeah this is big brain time.
Not only did Palpatine eliminate a huge rebel threat and discredited them serverly. He also strengthend his rule by manipulating the people's resolve so that they thought they needed him as a leader to face this "threat" . All the while distracting them from any discontent they might be feeling about his ruling.
A true evil mastermind any sith should respect.
Imperial Guard later on: "Your Majesty, its wonderful to see you again."
Sheev Palpatine: "How was your vacation?"
Imperial Guard: "The Twi'leks know how to make a man happy. How was your time when I was gone?"
Sheev Palpatine: "I tricked some rebels into trying to assassinate me and I killed most of them."
Imperial Guard: "Classic You..."
I can't blame him for trying to take out Palpatine. If you have an opportunity to take out somebody like him then take that opportunity
And he had no idea the Emperor was a Sith Lord.
And he tanked his force lightning and lived to tell the tale, thats better than what we can say for Windu, Vader, etc... characters who got one shotted by it.
"If you have an opportunity to take out someone like him then take that opportunity"
Darth Vader:
Yeah but the lesson in the comic if your trying decide on something don’t act on impulse
as discussed in the comic itself. he didn't know what he was getting himself into. we all know he didn't actually have such an opportunity. he got lucky and escaped, but ofc he could never best palpatine in a 1v1 fight. He thought he could beat a feeble old man. He didnt know that old man was Darth Sidious
Disney really likes the name ray, rey, rae.
This was actually an awesome story. I like how you do canonical videos as well as Extended Universe lore. I don’t entirely agree with Disney’s decisions on what is and isn’t EU material but seeing Canon vids are actually a nice touch. As much as I am a fan of the EU, more vids on canon content does carry significant merit.
Evan White If you're like me you like legends only 3% more but still enjoy canon
Stakuga The Undying same
They seem to do better in canon comics and books than the flims. I don’t accept the flims in my canon but I can live with the comics and see legends and canon as alternate verses
I have a feeling the artists/storytellers of these comics have more creative freedom.
But at the same time there is an overarching plot. Unlike Legends which was largely a hodgepodge and massive power creep.
Palpatine must be a master baiter then..
Good one
What a great plan.
Firelight157 The plan to kill the emperor was fluke to begin with even they did kill the real emperor war with empire wouldn’t have ended any sooner plus it’s Leia fault that the plan failed because she on impulse instead being level headed in a critical situation
Jay it’s been 3 years do you still think it’s a great plan
He has the force ability of future sight. He predicted everything until the second death stars destruction. Ha!
It was more he was just bloody smart, he pretty much made the future right up until the end, where his plan to make Luke his new apprentice went completely wrong in the most unpredictable way.
@@gazelle1467 He was prepared though...
Thats why you dont fuck with the Senate
I can just imagine emperor palpatine saying out loud "OH I HOPE NO REBELS COME OUT AND SHOOT ME IN THE BACK BECAUSE IM COMEPLETELY DEFENSELESS"
*Man you have been pumping out these Great videos KEEP it Up I NEED MY DAILY DOZES OF STAR WARS*
My Boss: "Make more recordings so I can make more videos! They demand it!"
Me, The New Guy: "Roger Roger."
It's cool to hear a story about a rebel who attacked the Emperor and actually lived to tell the tale.
*Doctor Aphra has entered the chat*
That dude is pretty badass I mean taking on ‘the Senate’ and surviving
*image of himself get shattered
Palpatine: It's over rebel scum, I have the high ground!
Ray: You underestimate my power......
Palpatine: Don't try it.
Ray: (jumps on to palpatine's ship, only to be force lightning)
Rebel: Woah, I thought you were dead.
Palpatine: reports of my death were greatly exaggerated.
Palpatine: *CALL AN AMBULANCE!*
Also Palpatine: But not for me!
[Power of the senate]
Why try to assassinate him when he has
UNLIMITED POWER
That must have been crazy in the debacle/chaos of it all. Poor Ray, but not only did his mission go to crap, he learned that Palpatine was a Sith Lord. I wonder how he, Ray, would’ve reacted if he learned the entire history of the Sith and discovered Palpatine’s name was Darth Sidious.
👍👑 Thee old bait and switch
I am groot
I see you everywhere
TeleBread I know right
3:59
The Lore Master:It was at that moment-
(Pauses Video)
Me:-He knew, he fucked up
I just love it when good guys get outsmarted by villains who are smarter than them and exploit their naïveté.
Time for all the over used sand, Senate & high ground jokes
Sgt Palooggoo
NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
IT'S A TRAP!
Two years and it hasn't changed
Sergeant Paloopoo, Prequel Memes™ are our speciality.
I hate sand jokes. They’re rough, coarse, overused, and they get everywhere.
I can't Imagine The Emperor saying ''Look behind you'' in his voice. lmao
I can
I love palpatine ability to devise such plans, it's the reason why I like him so much despite his evilness.
Shows you how frigging intelligent and cunning Palpatine is
This felt very comical, it feels even more comical when you think about Palpatine having a body double. I guess he has his own LucasFilm make up studio for the occasion.
To be fair, he did come from a planet where it was common for their Kings and Queens to have dozens of body doubles at the ready 24/7.
... Oh shit that makes sense. Especially giving the Queen's 100 make up and hair styles.
The Lore Master I do not understand what is the point of being the Queen/King of Naboo if you cannot take all the decisions in front of your people because of security reasons.
Well he did have the Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center...
Im curious as to why Palpatines face wasn't augmented for the public, since in the new canon they've been consistent with showing him as prequel Sheev instead of ROTJ Palps.
Misscommunication between the media teams
3:59 It was at that moment, he realized he fucked up.
congrats on 400k subs:)
Thanks dude!
your welcome! also I want to thank you for teaching me so much about Star Wars:)
Decoy: So should I dress up as you my lord?
Palpatine: DEW IT.
Love your videos, thanks for all you do guy.
Thanks for watching
Do a lore video on his future, it seems very interesting as he works against the rebels later on.
Wow! That’s just insane how one rebel...who is NOT AT ALL force sensitive had the biggest balls of the bunch to fight the emperor head on and managed to survive! My mind is blown right now just hearing this
The rebels got pranked
Just like Kylo lol
Brian Boardwell lol
Still that guy tanked force lightning and lived to tell the tale! He deserves a medal!
Thanks for adding artist credits, too!
At 2:39 why is a stormtrooper using a dc-15 blaster?
King Quin The 9th It's likely just a mistake on the illustrator's behalf. Though a potential lore reason may be that the DC-15s was still utilized by imperial troops.
It's treason then
Hipster trooper.
Lord Floyd true. Also, maybe they have not finished the process of changing all of the troopers gear.
maybe that particular trooper was an old clone and used the DC-15 because he prefered it.
Great work none the less good stuff thanks for sharing such a cool story
3:00 *A killing blow, it was*
How hard can it be to find a replacement in the same galaxy where hologram disguises are used?
Lord Floyd And you wear a dark hood all the time?
I wouldn’t put it past Palpatine to have meant that sarcastically, judging from the characterization in the books and comics. “Oh no, you killed my decoy. Whoever will I find to look like an old man lol wear a black hooded robe?”
My kudos, Emperor Palpatine, for you organizing a brilliant and perfectly executed scheme.
400k
Congrats
This would make a great episode of Rebels or even a Spin off with Ian Mcdurmin reprising his role as Palpatine!!!
Palpatine:YOU CAME TO THE WRONG SENATOR FOOL
Congrats on 400k subs
This rebel spy got much better caracther development than rey
I have two questions:
1. Did stormtrooper armour change in Legends/Expanded Universe?
2. If so does it have a different name?
Only if he knew Palpatine was the senate.
Quite a shock! Eneb Rey is one of the only Rebels to learn Palpatine was a Sith, he was damn lucky!
This is what happens when you leave your plot armour at home
Nothing like watching The Lore Master on my PC
Enemy:Look behind you
Rey: Sure why not
Why has he not been discuised in the announcement? Nobody in the Empire, except the highest ranks knew how has he truly looked!
This shows how amazing palpatine is.If the lore master responds to my comment that would make this the best day of my life
Thereal_ Hunter nope
MEGAs king well then
Still badass how the rebels are not pathetic, Wish the movies did this more.
Has there ever been a time where the empire or even just a couple stormtroopers acted generally kind to loyal citizens?
The movies are filtered through a Rebel lens which paints the Imperials as Judge Dredd fanatics while the alliance is always presented as “heroes fighting for freedom and apple pie” despite their terrorist acts
Plz make more! I subbed and liked!
I wonder if the lore master will ever respond to this, but. Didn't Sidious pull a stunt similar to this before this thing happened? I read the novel lords of the sith, and it showed him destroying most of the free Ryloth movement in about 24 or 48 hours, or Something like that?
Yes, Palpatine was known to put himself in the line of danger; likely because he loved the thrill of it.
I mean, this is a former pod-racer...
You have such an amazing voice. :D
Risking all their available assets/agents in Coruscant for a huge gamble of successfully killing Palpatine was just so stupid, even if they didn't know that he was a Sith that was impossible to kill for normal men. You have the valuable resources to gather intel in the innermost territory of your enemy, assets that probably took time to just be established there, and you are just gonna gamble all those lives away based on one haphazard on the spot decision of one man? I'll certainly take the chance of approving the assassination of the biggest enemy if there's an opportunity, but sending all those valuable agents just on a whim? It's so dumb I can't immerse myself with the story.
The Rebel Alliance did view the republic through rose colored glasses (at best) and was led by greedy politicians who got butthurt over Palpatine taking away their private slush funds for public use
Damn, I love these vids
Now that is just a sheer perfect plan.
As I said a while ago palpitate IS one of the best puppet masters in all of fantasy/sci-fi
i love thumbnail. Palpatine be like "oh no, your assassinating me what ever shall i dooooo xD"
Best voice on yt
Hmmm anybody think Barriss Offee was in that prison too when it blew up?
Great Video. Keep it up
Palpanator: *drops lightsaber* I hope no one assassinates me as I grab my lightsaber *bends down* (How to bait 101 presented by palpy)
Because you guys do such a Good job of explaining things in Star Wars I was hoping you could go over what happens to an individual after death in this universe in cannon. There seems to be a lot of confusion around this topic and with all legends being taken out of the lore is there any thing in the Canon that answers the question?
Hey Lore Master could you make a video about Grand Moffs,Moffs and Governors, what where their duties? And which Military branch did they belong to ? Imperial Navy or Army? Thanks
So what comic is that?
0:06
Master Splinter!!
Why are there so many other characters in the star wars universe named rey?
Well, this one is named"Ray"
Well then why are they all pronounced the same!
Maybe is a common name, like lee or Mohammed, lets be real, a person's name isnt only their
Alexandru Arfire I read that comment in a Russian accent for some reason.
Christian Joseph ur names christian right? ive met ppl named kristian and theres johns as well as jons. names arent just one person im guessing star wars wants to be a bit more sensible
2:25 "all six agents..."
The panel: there is another
"OMFG THIS GUY STOP BAITING IM TELLING MY MOM!!!!!"
"Heh git gud skrubz"
Most impressive, Lord Sidious.
I'm pretty sure you can see Palpatine on the left at 1:01, with his cloack over his head.
The thumbnail looks like Palpatine dancing in The Senate Musical
I was looking forward to this
the awsomeness if Palpatine never stops
Palpatine reminds me of handsome squidward falling over in the thumbnail.
Basically a Star Wars version of the Dark Brotherhood questline :D
If Leia knew that Palpatine was a Sith Lord, would she still have gave Rey the go ahead or not?
Palpatine's posing at the thumbnail 😂.
'Good duplicates are hard to find.'
Welp, time to start cloning!
