The Non-Canon Expert looks at why MagnaGuards were so powerful and difficult opponents even for Jedi!
This is a Legends story for the MagnaGuards with information found within the Legends novels The Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth, Labyrinth of Evil, Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, the Revenge of the Sith novelization, and Star Wars: The Complete Visual Dictionary. I hope that you enjoy it!

For 3 days straight, a legend has returned...
All these other SW lore and explanation channels just don't hit the same without "If not for meee..." at the end of them
They were even worse for clones. These guys were beast in Republic Commando.
Welcome back SWRC. It’s nice to see the three straight days of uploads
Good to see you back.
I would like to see live action Luke fighting four Magna Guards.
Whoot, your back from your break the RUclips channel!🎉🎉🎉 I have missed how you end your videos in a unique hilarious way! 😂🤣 Keep up the Awesome work Star Wars Reading Club!
Excellent video, reading club is bringing up elements, black battle droid information, that a lot of other channels overlook. I have to give this video a like, but not for me, but for the magna guards
It's interesting they were trained in all seven forms of lightsaber combat as form seven Juyo isn't a style of combat for Jedi barring Mace Windu and the small handful of Vapaad practitioners so it's possible Dooku intended to at one point use the guards against Sidious in some way or vice versa.
Great to have you back! Also shoutouts to my boy Hyper-sophisticated combat algorithms!
Welcome back king
I missed sw reading club
Thank you for the video 🥰
I wonder what HK-47 would think of them?
If not for me do it for Oliver the service dog
Hello there
I believe that because Droids are not living beings, Jedis cannot predict their movement with the Force. It is mentioned that even the most experienced Jedi pilots had difficulty facing the Droid-Tri Fighter
True. In the sense that force users can feel or sense one’s thoughts, it seems likely it would not work the same with one that has no personal thoughts or emotions.
You know, It's quite refreshing to see a youtuber doing videos the same way for so long as you do. Keep the streak my friend, Star Wars needs all the help It can get these days.
At the time, very few Jedi participated in one v one fights while battlefield engagements with blaster-wielding enemies were commonplace
That’s flat out wrong. Maybe at the VERY beginning of the war sure but that didn’t LAST long at all. The Prequel/clone wars era had THEE greatest swordmasters in galactic history that is direct in-universe fact. And on BOTH sides. Dooku, Sidious, Maul, Grievous, Ventress, and then even Vader by the war’s end who decimated the Jedi; the Darksiders of that era were filled to the brim with martial ability... And there were MANY other Dark Jedi and acolytes than just the main greats. Lightsaber fights became literal common occurrences again for the first time in 1,000 years. The prequel/clone wars era is literally the apex era of martial/dueling ability. That is DIRECT in-universe fact. And George Lucas directly stated that himself. That the Jedi Order was at its peak in that era. Which is largely due to the Darksiders they were facing they HAD to be. There’s no getting around that, Lucas said it himself... Vader/Anakin, Yoda, Dooku, Windu, Sidious, Kenobi, Maul, Cin Drallig, Grievous, Plo Koon, Shaak Ti, Kit Fisto, Ventress, Agen Kolar, Sora Bulq, Depa Billaba, Ki-Adi Mundi, Saesee Tiin, Garth Ezzar, Soara Antana, Devan Fordeschel, Darrus Jeht, etc. the list literally goes on and on and on, those are just off the top of my head. ALL savage swordmasters who have ALL been in duels.. Dooku had many Sith acolytes & other Dark Jedi working for him. And Sidious had a couple of his own, like Garth Ezzar, who was a badass himself. The Almas academy that he brought down had multiple great Jedi swordmasters as well who were encountering Darksiders and duels on a semi-regular basis. Then Maul had his brother whom both had multiple different encounters & duels with multiple different Jedi during their rogue reign. Like I said, the list goes on. There were hundreds upon hundreds of duels that took place during the prequel/Clone wars era. For quite a few Jedi, and for many Darksiders, they had become a regular occurrence again.
Came for yooooouuuuu, stayed for the sophisticated combat algorithms
Wow didnt expect a upload from you good to see more videos from you
This comment is for hyper-sophisticated combat algorithms.
But also it's really lovely to have you back 😄
I have a feeling that the Guards Grievous gave the Robes to held a Special Place Beside Him.
I bet He Named Them after the Ones He held Closest to His Heart from His Lost History.
Thank you for still making real Star Wars content
IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK 😭❤️😭❤️😭❤️
I liked and subscribed for hyper sophisticated combat algorithms
As fantastic as TCW is, the portrayal of Grievous and his MagnaGuards were actually two of its biggest crimes. The original Clone Wars (2003) series was far better in depicting how their droid bodies and unconventional movements could be a real threat to any opponents.
They grt destroyed by a padawan who didn't have proper training.
i dont how the jedi are having trouble with magnaguards when they can literally just force crush them in a instant like the jedi rely on their lightsabers to much and forgot they are space wizards with god like powers this is also anakins biggest flaw a jedi true power comes from the force
When they are outnumbered, they’re cooked.
@@mazkeraid4039 yeah but the best they can do is kill a padawan like a jedi knight can prob force crush like 5 or 10 at once maybe unless theres a entire army running towards a jedi coming at all angles other then that the jedi stomps
This droids were amazing in lego the complete saga. Good to watch on a big screen. Only minus is this Obi move from episode 3, when he crushed 4 of them and had to decapitate one. I think they should jump away since they were so fast.
They could halve been useful for the Empire.
The magna guards are deadly and formidable opponents in their own right and armed with Grevious knowledge of Jedi forms and fighting styles, its no surprise that they were able to take down clones and Jedi alike throughout the clone wars.
I agree,Magna Guards were very powerful and strong. They were good opponents for Jedi
I've always loved Magna Guards but still have no idea what it means for a sentient creature to "train" a droid
Man, I can not convey how much I've missed " if not for me,for...." Glad to see you posting again man
Now imagine if someone found the CIS's blueprints and made a Anti-Force-User-Droid without Trustworthy Sith Accounting TM. The B3 or B2 cortosis technology added to the mix would be epic.
I'd give them sonic/disruptor weapons (like the Genosians), flamethrowers, mines (not grenades, those can be thrown back with the Force), secret compartments that emit lethal gases at lightsaber range, guns that can shoot nets, programming on how to attack Jedi indirectly by taking hostages or attacking their allies, distraction modules that play Sith taunts, and make them have a special functionality to appear deactivated/broken until the Jedi gets close to them.
I feel like nets being force pushed back would be a heck of a hazard for the droid though
@@Akbar_and_Shaa True dat
Hay he's back 👍👍👍

Good to hear SWRC and making a new video. Give more love to him! Also another factor that Magnaguards have that could tip the scales in their favor to most jedi especially the ones not discipline enough like Obi-Wan and Kit Fisto are the fact that they can put the fear into you. Just seeing one is bad enough but a group of them and with their terrifying appearance and their inhuman speed and strength SWRC pointed out, that would make most Jedi fall.
Are they called Magna Guards due to magnetic feet?
Jedi should have implemented force crush on them.
IG series droids are insanely good.
Woah you have returned!
*THANK YOU BASED GOD*

Moar LEGENDS 🤯
Thanks

For the love of all that is good, please stick around.
