"He is as clumsy as he is stupid."
―Darth Vader, on Kendal Ozzel
Correction, you mean was
I love how put same comment probably before you and yet
You know someone is really bad ^^
when Vader murdering someone in his ever so psychotic bloodlust is seen as a big act of mercy for everyone around that person.
At this point I don't know who's worse. This guy or the Imperial governor who snitched on Darth Vader, and made him his temporary lap dog.
1000th like
Vader probably did the Imperial Military a favor by executing Ozzel.
ngl, it is true
Vader: *This is where the fun begins*
Every remaining Clone cheered and celebrated like at the end of Return of the Jedi.
@Jaegar19Ultima Not entirely Piett's fault. Palpatine ordered the position of the Empire's fleet to remain close to the Death Star II following the entrapment of the Rebels. The Executor likely could have survived the impact from the A-Wing even with the destruction of it's bridge, but the fact that it was so close to the Death Star II meant that once the bridge was taken out, it likely lost propulsion and had no where else to go but into the Death Star 2. Literally Palpatine's "brilliant" tactics. Palpatine is a lot like Hitler. Brilliantly charismatic, has his own agenda going on but the worst tactician imaginable.
He is as clumsy as he is stupid after all.
“Captain Kendal Ozzel was more than just clumsy, he was stupid and pusillanimous. His action resulted my brothers killed in the battle. He was an abomination to every assets of the Republic.”-Unidentified Clone Trooper.
Agreed
They taught clone troopers the word pusillanimous. Kaminoans are terrifying.
He is as clumsy as he is stupid.
@@giannisk.916 Agreed may the coward fucker rot in hell
Fun fact the word pussillaniumous is the origin of the word pussy. The clones called him a pussy.
Ozal : fire near the jedi
Palpatine: i like this guy
vader: force choke
Here at 66 likes lmao
LOL
Actually makes sense
Ozzal: Fire near Vader.
Palpatine: Okay, time to die.
Palpatine: "Execute order 66"
Wolffe: "Will be done mylord..."
Ozzel: "What news from Coruscant?"
Wolffe: "Oh, nothing... Could you hold this lightsaber for a moment, sir?"
Lmao yess, a perfect reason to get rid of the trash
Underrated comment 😂😂
Wolfe: “And put on these robes?”
Ozzel: “ok?”
Worffle: “and stand inside the Jedi position, it makes you look powerful and smart”
Ozzel: “OK, ILL DO IT”
@@aksalaheddine78 Woffle: and if you hear our blasters clicking on behind you, don’t think too much about it since we’re just preparing our weapons
Ozzel: Ok!
Ozzel:Now this is getting suspicious. What's going on here?
Wolffe:nothing, sir. We're doing a pictorial. We just thought you'd look good looking like a jedi, being the HONOURABLE man you are.
Ozzel:No shit, of course I a-
*blam
Mara Jade, when she was the Emperor’s Hand, said she couldn’t tell if Ozzel was disloyal, easily manipulated, or just plain stupid.
I'd say all those and more
All of the above
Not disloyal he was but easily manipulated and stupid he is
*yes*
*yes*
Seems like the sort of guy who'd take a fleet out of hyperspace too close to a star system.
To close to the system.
Bro that's exactly what i was thinking.
That's cause he IS that guy!
Who knows, maybe he has
@@yapyapthedestroyer2562 omg... NOOOOOOOOO it is he who shall not be named, he who brings death and destruction in his wake, he who's name turns souls and hearts dark and teaches the true meaning of fear to anyone who happens to behold him, the greatest crusader of ALL TIME... its.. its Yap Yap, fleet killer, destroyer of worlds, dreaded enemy. He approaches and thus our time draws short, the time is nigh to die, may the gods forgive us for our arrogance
When you’re so bad, you even make Pong Krell look like a better leader.
At least he put some thought into what he did. Ozzel just went 'No time to think just shoot anything you see'.
Oof
Pong Krell's tactics were 100% intentional
At least his poor leadership was intentional.
Even krells tactics were organized
A Boy Scout probably can lead a Clone Unit better than him.
A ptotocal droid could probably lead a unit better than this guy
JAR JAR BINKS IS A BETTER LEADER THAN HIM
The clumsy Gungan actually did do a better job
My ROTC battalion could probably do better
As an Eagle Scout, I can say that I in fact have
And he became Hitler in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
He became Hitler in a few other films and tv shows.
In Britain, he’ll always be Mr Bronson, the evil teacher (with bad toupe) in long running BBC kids high school drama “Grange Hill”
He's Hitler
And now we know why the Third Reich failed
It maybe a stretch but he kinda look like that buff mechanic in Raiders of the Lost Ark
In reality Ozzel would have been "accidentally" killed by his own troops reckless cowards don't tend to last long.
Clones are bred for loyalty, though, and Legends clones in particular would have thought such an act inconceivable.
@@InSanic13 Loyalty on goes so far.
@@godking sadly in the clones case, it goes way further then you can imagine. Clones entire purpose basically was to serve and an act of betrayal was pretty much going against everything they believed in.
So sadly, Ozell could probably send millions of them to die and they would follow orders, cause that's what clones do.
@@godking but I think the clones literally have to obey him, they have chips that keep them from disobeying orders if I recall correctly. You think they would have done Order 66 if they had a choice?
Ah yes, the times when 'fragging' is a 'good' thing.
“Ozzel”, huh? I wonder if he was relat- Oh, this was all _him_ after all? Bloody hell, no wonder he got killed.
honestly, after making the connection I can't help but wonder how he manages to survive a good over 20+ years of military service before Vader killed him.
@@shadowwriter329 He got lucky enough to stay out of Vader's way up until he fucked up and got wrecked.
@@shadowwriter329 Yeah I know you would think that maybe Palpatine, Vader or any of the political and military elite would recognize Ozzel's incompetence and have him at the very least barred from any direct military command position.
At least Darth Vader killed forced choked him to death when the Empire came to Hoth. Cause when I watched the movie I think that he was one of the worst admirals in the Empire. And he’s a coward and he has no honor in him
agree
I honestly thought as a kid that he may be a rebel spy trying to slow the empire but nope he was just the worst
RW:Good point.😐
It should have happened twenty years before Hoth IMO. Would’ve done the republic a favor
@@etazeta674
Clones:"he's Not Looking, quick shoot him!"
As a person working in the military. You'd be shocked how many of these guys exist in command
Do you guys have to keep them for the same reason Palpatine did? Cuz they unfortunately have big connections?
The military, whether you like it or not needed manpower.
These people were just that to fill up the empty spaces.
Remember, we're in the longest peace ever in human kind history.
Theres never a need for commanders right now thats why they're there.
@@Laserbeak316 Maybe not to that extent, but there is definitely politicking involved in the commission and snco ranks
I can imagine.
Wait what even our own military is filled with Ozzels.... I am sorry but I believe in what Colonel Sharpe said about bad officers and love Vader's approach. A bad officer is better dead. Good soldiers follow orders.
We need a new protocol to execute on guys like Ozzel.
This guy was so bad that even a B-1 battle droid could command a military unit better than him.
Roger Roger.
Well because battle droids were programmed to not be cowards and are programmed to find the best possible outcome, if they are leader or not
@@megamind5845 OOM-Command Droid can do better than him
@Sakkra101 OOM-9 only lost because Anakin blew up the droid control ship. I am sure c-3po would be a better commander than Ozzel
The Commander:"Dont shoot, they're the commanders!"
**The Droids get shoot**
The Commander:"this seems awfully familiar.
Legend has it that when Darth Vader force choked Admiral Ozzel... a nearby stormtrooper commented, "I always wanted to do that," much to the Dark Lords' surprise.
Vader: "Seriously, Ozzel. You are the most pathetic man I ever met"
Ozzel: "At least, my testicles aren't burned, sir"
Vader: *Force chokes him*
Ozzel: "You will be always that little boy Padmé met in Tatooine" *Dies*
Forget choking, Vader would cut Ozzel into pieces or throw him into space
He'd grab his saber and cut off HIS testicles
@@crowwithinternetservice "You were saying, admiral?"
Ozzel doesn’t have the balls to say that to Vader ;)
If he had said that to me, I'd be throwing him like Hulk did to Loki all day!
Bruh moments of the Clone Wars
The whole Clone Wars is a bruh moment
@@MTV2O2O true, its a diversion from sidious taking power 😂😂
True
Most of the clone wars
Well no wonder Vader choked him to death.
apparently the dude has had it coming for years
KrypTanko Vader was probably waiting for the moment until someone competent like Piet or Veers to take command.
same dude I was going to that said
Vader: i find your lack of intelligent disturbing *force choke the poor guy*

When the Jedi, basically a religious order of peace-loving beings, untrained in the arts of war and military tactics, actually end up being better than the professional military officers they served with while in the Republic.
@@capofantasma97 The genocide of the Sith was hundreds if not thousands of years ago. The Jedi may be trained in Lightsaber combat but they are not trained in leading troops into battle. They are still peacekeepers after all.
@@capofantasma97 They are trained in combat. Not battle tactics dumby.
@@capofantasma97
Engaging in "police force activity" does not perfectly translate to you being able to direct vast military campaigns and formulating operational strategies across combatant theaters as part of the general staff of an armed forces. Can you imagine average law enforcement officers suddenly being requested by congress to act as generals for the military? That's essentially what happened. It makes no sense that it happened, but it just happened because of a combination of factors - of course, that doesn't back up your point that the Jedi SHOULD have been the generals of the Grand Army, as the following points explain:
Peacekeepers are also supposed to KEEP THE PEACE and PREVENT A WAR from breaking out in the first place, not ENGAGE in one - that's the job of professional soldiers and officers, which the Jedi were not.
The Jedi were essentially nothing more than monks who were also given policing duties by the Republic government before the outbreak of the Clone Wars, studying heavily in the religious arts and the ways of the Force, educating, promoting peace and engaging in diplomatic actions, enforcing the law here and there. The Jedi Order was not a military academy, the likes of which were on planets such as Coruscant or Cardia, and are comparable to West Point or the United States Naval Academy, where cadets were drilled in protocol, standards and procedure, tactics and strategy, policy-making, command style and leadership, for the specific purpose of producing leaders of the military.
Of course the Senate allowed the Jedi to serve as the leaders of their new Grand Army of the Republic - it's a collection of representatives, thinking with little logic and fear which has taken over them in the face of an ongoing crisis. Of course they chose the Jedi, who were probably a less suitable choice than actual personnel who were part of the Judicial Forces and individual Planetary Security Forces (PSFs), who had graduated from the aforementioned military academies - because the Senate is incompetent and can't make decisions for the good of the Republic, in all fairness. The Jedi, when presented with the opportunity and order to serve the Republic, had to oblige - by then, they were slaves of the Republic, and Chancellor Palpatine had, as you even state yourself, manipulated the political situation to such an extent, they had no other choice but to accept their new responsibilities as generals. It's questionable that Palpatine ever actually saw the Jedi as competent leaders and generals for the new Grand Army - he almost certainly chose them to take up their new positions just so he could manufacture their downfall.
It's almost useless to point out the fact that the Jedi had engaged in wars with the Sith decades upon decades and centuries ago, just because of how long ago these conflicts were, as well as the fact that the Jedi tend to block out parts of history and information that relates to the Sith at all.
The only positives to the Jedi acting as the general staff of the Grand Army were that they did, of course, have force abilities, which may have helped them to some extent, such as in predictions of certain situations, the upkeep of morale among the troops, etc. However, none of this holds a candle to actual training and drilling of the military arts - any soldier, marine, sailor, airman, junior enlisted personnel, non-commissioned officer, commissioned officer, general, or admiral, will tell you this. Jedi even showed a lack of understanding of their roles as generals when they threw themselves in the middle of battles - the role of a general is to command huge swaths of men, organizing logistics and policy, formulating strategy, with the assistance of his lower staff at headquarters, and not to charge in with the rest of the field troops below him, no matter how much morale and inspiration it will give them - that's now how modern warfare works, nor how it should work in the Star Wars Universe (the Galactic Empire was an adequate representation of how generalship should actually work). They also, as you might notice, resorted countless times to simple-minded charge or swarm tactics, having troops move with virtually no cover, and facing the enemy in their direct line of sight.
The whole point of my original comment to this video was to point out the irony of Jedi actually being better tacticians than a trained, professional military officer - Captain Ozzel. If you pay attention to my argument, in most cases, this will not be true.
@@capofantasma97 bruh I called you a dumby. I meant no harm.
@Julius Caesar Trained in the art of Force abilities and lore, and 1v1, sword-fighting combat.
By the "Art of War", I mean actual development of strategies and policies for military campaigns or a galactic-scale war. The Jedi had not fought a war as significant as the Clone Wars in a long time, and had, by the start of it, been reduced to an Order of RELIGIOUS Force zealots, occasionally tasked with the job of policing - something that should not be compared to "generalship", if you will. Sure, they were good at fighting 1v1 and with lightsabers - make them the Special Forces of your army, but don't make them your officers and leaders unless they know tactics.
Refer to my longer post/comment from earlier, if you'd like, for increased detail.
"A few months after the Battle of Endor, a copy of the Imperial Handbook was captured by the Rebel Alliance and delivered to the Alliance High Command by Skywalker. The copy included Ozzel's Innovations in Imperial Naval Tactics. Solo, when reading through the innovations, noted that they were so poorly thought out that he simply could not make fun of it due to being far too easy to do so."
Nice comment
"He is as clumsy as he is stupid"

honestly, after making the connection I can't help but wonder how he manages to survive a good over 20+ years of military service before Vader killed him.
@@shadowwriter329 Not just Ozzel but for the majority of the officers the Empire had. There where a few competent ones like Thrawn and Piett, (well, mostly in the EU) but for the most part many of the high ranking officers where full of arrogance and/or where incompetent which would bite the Empire in the ass after Yavin.
I like that you dated it lol
@@kinterviewer9592 how is thrawn still alive after episode 6? And why didn't he do anything during episode 4-6?
@@king0vdarkness Real Reason: It interferes with the Original Trilogy and the main fact that those films came out before 1991 when Heir to the Empire was released and it would had interfered with the main timeline
In-universe reason: Thrawn was mostly in charge of occupying worlds in the Unkown Regions before and during the Galactic Civil War. Another factor comes to the fact that the Empire where anti-alien (many where shocked when Thrawn was promoted as Grand Admiral by Palpatine). Last but not least, Palpatine had already Vader to do most of the major campaigns in the chartered Galaxy to hunt down the Rebel leaders, mainly Luke.
Luke after Ozzel's death: I feel a great disturbance in the force, suddenly it's as if millions of voices cried out.....
In relief....
Underrated

MESSA STILL HERE!
@@marcelkirch6805 oh no
🤣
Han Solo mentioned that during his time in the Enpire, he remembered Ozzel being dumb and incompetent.
Where did he say this?
@@AndalusianPhilosopher Han Solo trilogy by AC Crispin
In the Imperial Handbook Han Solo comments that Ozzel's Navy dog piling style "tactics" or lack thereof were so Darwin award-worthy that he said this: "I can't make fun of this, it's too easy."
Ozzel: (Fires upon the Jedi and almost kills him)
Palpatine: "I like your style but not your timing"

@@justsomedangerbigfootwithweb dont you mean the 2003 series? That one is legends, the 2008 series is canon
@@tokyojuul9987 no, the 2008 star wars the clone wars is officially legends(EU) and the 2003 clone wars was deemed it to be non- canonical to the Legends universe (I hope u know what I mean) so basically the 2003 clone wars is a wasted masterpiece :( but many people don't consider 2008 Star wars the clone wars to be Legends because it contradicts many facts a d events from the Legends comics and lore that existed beforehand, don't get me wrong, I love 2008 Sw the clone wars but I also don't consider it legends because of what I said previously, whew that took long to type
So Captain Ozzel is basically me when I'm playing Galactic Conquest in Battlefront 2 (2005 version)
Yeah, I accidentally bankrupted the Republic, sent every fleet to their destruction and presided over the deaths of more than 589 million clones, three jedi (but I wouldn't worry, two of them were Ki-Adi Mundi and Aayla Secura, they weren't going to make it either way), also about... 40 jawas and 40 million wookiees...
Also I lost Kamino to the Separatists, so, yeah, those clones aren't getting replaced any time soon.
Also before all of that... I somehow lost the historic republic triumph on Geonosis, so they were able to produce thrice the amount of battle droids that they ususally would, Jango Fett didn't die, Mace Windu did and the republic kind of became a laughingstock even before the clone wars began.
Actually that came back to haunt me because Jango Fett single-handedly took out our defences on both Felucia and Kashyyyk, and the clones felt conflicted about basically being told to shoot their dad, who trained them and watched them grow up, so it led to a significant decline in morale, as if we had any to begin with, so they started a mutiny and turned on me and republic forces had to retreat from republic forces.
But I saved Mustafar! Ripped it right from the clutches of the Separatists and constructed one final fleet around it that the Separatist armada just doesn't seem interested in, they just keep travelling around, building fleets and blockades over all of the other planets, and I'm not going to risk our final fleet challenging those ones so we appear to be at a stalemate, checkmate Separatists.
As for our last fleet; the shipbuilders gave me a terrific discount, they must've felt sorry for us because they let me construct the fleet free of charge, so I guess the entire Republic is just going to have to relocate to that sulfur-filled lava planet. You're welcome.
you know I imagine that this is pretty much exactly what would happen if Dooku actually wanted to win the clone wars, minus the fact that you still had clone troopers after the Battle of Geonosis and that Jango didn't die.
"Ozzel, that Buffon? Aw yes, I remember him well. Out of all of those who were blindly loyal to me he was the most useless. Honestly, I only kept him and several others around to better control the masses, but at least those other fools were somewhat competent. It got so bad at one point with him, I purposely put him in Death Squads' navy knowing full well with how he acted it wouldn't be long before Vader finally ended him. Me, Mas Amedda, and Sate Pestage even had a bet going on how long it would take Vader to finally choke him out."-Palpatine.
lol.
Who lost?

Nice comment
@@palsky3215 Thanks.
I’m not gonna lie when you showed him getting killed in ESB my jaw dropped. It’s so amazing to me that Star Wars goes out of its way to flesh out and provide stories for all these small characters and details.
That's why nepotism is a bad thing, especially in a field like the military.
When the lore master covers a comic that you own
**Leonardo DiCaprio pointing meme**
I remember reading that comic in my school library back in the 4th grade. Damn, where has time gone 😔
I feel like so many background characters in the movies got backstories and stuff because one time someone just dared a bunch of people to take every background character in the movies and give them a backstory.
Imagine training your entire life in a prestigious school and to be bad at your job couldn't be me or the Republic Commander
It happens
Nah.....he probably didn't learn jack shit..... probably used his family connection and money to paved his way in....
@@Mr-Ad-196 That's exactly what he did. In another video it was actually pretty common
It happens very often with how many incompetent people are in positions of power.
The background music instantly changes my mood from anything to much more serious tone
I have a feeling that palpatine purposely put him under Vader so that he would of died.
Poe: destroys Dreadnaught *gets demoted*
This guy: surrenders and becomes a coward when faced with death.
*gets promoted*
This is probably what happened a few hours after Ozzel's death in the officer's break room
"So Lord Vader just killed Ozzel on the bridge this morning"
"Oh, really? So who won weekly betting pool then? I had down that it would happen on a Thursday at noon."
"I think it was Lt Jenkins in Gunnery Ops. Oh we ought to send Lord Vader a thank you card or something. Maybe send it around the various departments before having it delivered"
Nice
Alternate title: "When that admiral Darth Vader executed in Episode V served in the Clone Wars"
Kendal Ozzel: the Dr. Zoidberg of Star Wars
Only he’s not hilariously bad at his job. Just atrociously and annoyingly bad at it.
That's an insult. Dr. Zoidberg at least could do better then Ozzel
@@Boglim_Brewer tbh Zapp could do better than Ozzel, and that’s seriously saying something.
You mean Zapp Branigan?
It takes an enormous talent to be the most incompetent officer in two vastly different galactic spanning regimes and yet still somehow advance on the hierarchical ladder.
Not really. It just takes a lot of wealth, influence and connections.
The one good thing about Ozzel? He was a punching bag for Vader who got over used
He sounds like one of those snobby teachers everyone has at some point that the parents seem to love for some reason, even though he doesn’t teach you anything and he hands out detentions like candy on Halloween any time someone questions his teaching ability.
In the military they don't fire officers, they transfer them somewhere where their careers die. In this case I think he was transferred to command a ship far from the front lines. That way an incompetent officer is away from the front and you still have his family's support.
He'll win the worse commander award.
Or better yet: the Royal Order of Sour Grapes for having a raisin for a brain
Or he would have if not for a timely force choke
He's so bad he couldn't even win that
@@Louis_alt255 He couldn't win if he was fighting an artichoke
*Worst
He reminds me of that one clone commander who’s name I forgot that forced his troopers to fight the droids with their bare hands when they couldn’t use their blasters
Bacara I think.
Galactic Marines.
@@marrqi7wini54 Yep it was Bacara
A strategy like that would imply Death before Surrender. Ozzel's strategy is surrender when one thing changes in the enemy's favor
Kendal Ozzel looked like Crazy Dave back then in the Clone Wars XD
No wonder Han Solo and Mara Jade themselves also got teed off by this guy in "The Hutt Gambit" and "Allegiance" respectively.
Such a realistic character, I hate him.
It's a pain that a commander like him must've existed at some point in history.
@@imlivingunderyourbed7845 And still do.
Videos like this always add a layer of irony to Vader's actions. Even though he killed Ozzel in retaliation for the man's incompetence, he avenged a lot of people who died over that stupidity. Of course, this outcome was not planned nor intended but it makes one wonder: in the thousands Vader had killed, how many people did he also inadvertently avenge?
Man a bombshell dropped when I heared ozzels name, he was a crappy captain in the galactic republic and a crappy admiral in galactic empire
Even Han Solo couldn't make fun of Ozzel's stupidity, saying it's be WAY TOO easy!
Wait so this officer served and somehow survived until Darth Vader got tired of him....he’s just like Jar-jar, but with less lines
Funny how he didn't got killed by anyone during the Clone Wars, even the Clones didn't like him
It's ironic how many incompetents the Empire have, and how most of them were still alive when Palpatine died... Jesus...
Well, the whole reason evil people seek power is because they are too stupid to be successful in the private sector.
Wait, so Ozzel was in the same campaign where Wolfe lost his eye? Should've just thrown the idiot in a Sarlacc and be done with it!
The Sarlacc would literally explode from indigestion
1:55 When you're such a bad commander that even the soldiers that are genetically modified to obey you start questioning your competence
*the Soldier*
yeah these are the troopers who charged blindly at an army of droids and bugs on a radioactive hell hole with no cover and yet Ozzel still manages to be a worse commander than the 30 something Jedi who just had an army thrown at their feet.
Fisto: "The droids have the high ground"
That should've been the cue for Ozzel to quit.
"You have Failed me for the last time Commander" - Darth Vader
ADMIRAL. "You have failed me for the last time, ADMIRAL."
Ozzel and Pong Kell would make best friends.
Pong Krell was just a traitor though
As a convenient scapegoat perhaps.
No, pong krell mind for tactic is better than that guy with a raisin for his brain, lol, at least pong knows how to create a plot for his traitorous
Uh no, krells tactics were completely intentional, he probably would’ve just killed ozzel for his unintentional stupidity before Vader ever did
They deserve each other the cowardly idiot and the traitor
Powerful families?
Nah... considering Palpatine's pragmatism, he probably kept Ozzel there in hopes that his stupidity would lead to more Jedi being killed.
I always wondered why his subordinate just watched as Vader choked him and didn't seem to care... Now I understand, dude was probably glad he finally got what he deserved.
Ngl, knowing this just makes it more satisfying to see Vader choke his ass out of command.
1:33 haha look at what kit fisto is saying.
No wonder they were boned lol
It’s over republic.
As palpatine would say: *pathetic*
I'm happy that i never had to fight along side him during any battle
Vader/Anakin killed him off besides that commander is liability anyway
Good thing you had yulreon instead
*Vader kills Ozzel*
Everybody on the Star Destroyer: Oh, Thank God. Thought he would never shut up...
Darth Vader: Oh, I'm sorry, did YOU want to kill him?
I used to think Ozzel was a spy for the rebel alliance. But now I’m certain he really was incompetent.
Ozzel: FIRE AT THE JEDI!!!!!!
Palpatine: This is the real reason why I made you admiral of Vader’s ship
Ozzel sounds exactly like how Ankin's tactics SHOULD have gone
I love the usage of both narrators.
When I heard the original was being replaced, I was disappointed, but he grew on me.
I love them both now.
This guy is the embodiment of "Some of you *MAY* die, but that is a sacrifice, I am *WILLING* to make."
he would fit in 40k.
for about 2 seconds because the equivalent to a jedi there is an space marine, and they do not have the same patience a jedi has.
Ozzel: The reason Nepotism really helped bring down the Empire
This execution by lord Vader was one of his killings I was happy about. I bet a lot of troopers and officers were actually happy for once when Vader murdered Admiral Ozzel. Before this video, he was so incompetent that I thought that he was a rebel spy and jumped too close to the Hoth system on purpose in order to warn the rebels, but it looks like he was just an old, incompetent fool
If this guy was a grand moff he would have easily destroyed the Death Star before it was completed lol.
Weren't it for Vader force chocking him Ozzal would have ended up winning the war for the rebellion 😂
Force choking was too good for this guy. Vader should’ve straight up made him into a human pretzel, like in the opening of X-Men: Apocalypse.
I actually recall that during the imperial era. Vader and Captain Piett were well aware of Ozzel's incompetence and were plotting to make him look bad to justify his -permanent- dismissal from command. Piett proved to be a much more competent admiral because unlike Ozzel who was handed his position without truly earning it. Piett started from the bottom of the chain of command and steadily climbed the ranks. Earning every promotion by putting down pirate outposts and rebel cells.
I remember that comic but I had no idea he was in Empire. I just remember Fisto, Plo, Wolffe, and the Devil Dogs who were badass
“You have failed me for the last time, admiral”
-Darth Vader to Ozzel, mere moments before his execution
This guy makes C3PO look like a fearless and cunning warrior
Man. It's unbelievable that he made it in the Empire another 20-30 years before Vader finally killed him.
That thumbnail is me when the teacher says the project was due today.
So he is the guy that Vader Brutally Force Choked, well now I understand why.
He didn't learn anything in those amazing school? Hrmmm somehow I think he just used his family name and money to pave his way into success.......but that didn't work in the end huh?
I wonder how Thrawn would have handled him if he was under his service.
But I feel he would either assign him to a position so low he wouldn't fuck things up or make an example out of him after his second failure and have concluded that he's a lost cause
Thrawn would have 100% faded him
Wouldn't Commander Wolfe outrank Ozzel since Ozzel was a captain and Wolfe was a commander?
If my memories seve me right, one of the major reason this battle was a victory was by their was an crazy brave clone trooper who was the commander of the devil dogs which he gave up his life to blow up a the biggest fortress of the seperatist in this battle(i dont renember his name)
Soldiers don’t mind officers with zero regard for human life, as long as that officer brings them a justifiable victory, and if his orders are logical and able to get them victory.
Ozzel during battle : OH SHIT! OH FUCK! OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT!!N
Ozzel when he's saved by outside intervention: Just as I planned. You guys are so lucky to have me in such unpredictable engagements.
I hope they make another Empire at War game where they focus on that fact when you play as the empire
OH MY GOD MY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HAD THIS BOOK IN THE LIBRARY, I READ ALL OF THEM. I LOVED IT
1:36
The droids have the high ground lmao
Someone relieve this man of his duties, he's unfit to command...
Ozzel was as clumsy as he was stupid. It’s no small miracle he made it through what he made it through without dumb luck.
After watching this I can say that Ozzel was one of Vader’s most justified murders
You have failed me for the last time Admiral.
3:50 now I'd certainly like to quote a well known great Thinker, Lord Tywin Lannister: "Any man who needs to remind everybody that he's king (in this case superior officer), is no king"
this is from the same comic where wolffe loses his eye
He's like a second-hand Threepio: plenty of fear, none of the charm.
3P0 is not a coward. He's just very anxious.
@@obitwokenobi9808
True, I'll just edit that to "fear" then.
Darth Vader killing him was a mercy to the Empire.
He was a bad commender and admirals. Great video
No matter how many times I see that picture at 0:10, I will always look at the guy on the far left and think: "He looks like Otto von Bismarck but with a blue face."
Far left you mean
@@kakakaka3219 oh shoot yup you right, I'll edit
