Why the Clones Feared Ventress the Most

- If you asked the average clone trooper what scared them more than anything on the battlefield, they would probably name a few separatist leaders and battle droid models, but deep down every trooper feared the one they call the "hairless banshee". Clutching twin lightsabers which gleamed off her bald head, she was sent to torment the clones and create fear amongst the ranks.

![Why the Gungan Grand Army Was So Unorthodox [Why Did they Use Tactics Like this??]](/img/n.gif)
Hunter: She's been lying to us, Omega. She's a war criminal.
Rex: Oh that's child's play, you should have seen General Skywalker in his prime.
the clone wars was a warm up compared to imperial vader
Ventress literally mind controlled Rex in start of the show
@@zacharydoyle7050that’s cap. Rex was pretending n playing along
Right? A clone accusing someone else of being a war criminal is like "Have you SEEN how the jedi fight?" XD
Honestly Ventress is kind of a role model. She has gone through so much and has so many excuses to just be broken.. she keeps going. And we actually see a glimmer of kindness from her too. Its beautiful.
Ventress is what Maul couldve been if he let go of the dark side and walked away from greater ambitions.
@@asiblingproductionfacts
she’s so cool. everything we saw from her this episode just makes me want more. still a bit iffy on her resurrection, but at least it’s handled better than other situations. if they want to keep it vague and up to the viewer’s interpretation, that’s fine by me.
@@asiblingproductionhe would make a good mentor and is clearly wise and knowledgeable of things of honey he didn’t hold a grudge
2:23 "war criminal" kinda ironic coming from someone that probably also commited plenty of war crimes.
Clone Troopers: "We need an adult."
Ventress: "I am an adult."
I don't know if this is considered very anime moment?
Great reference
I heard this in her voice.
Just missing the smack into the ground. Good ole TFS
Thumbnail: "Every clone's biggest fear"
Ventress: *bedroom eyes*
Considering what she did to that one clone before skewering him, I’d say those eyes have more than one meaning.
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME NOT HIM MEEEE!!!!!
@@josephdoria5237Well, they are more "femme fatale" bedroom eyes. The kind that say, "You. Tonight." And leaves that open for interpretation.
That’s one of the things that makes the Umbaran campaign in The Clone Wars so much more edgy…those weren’t merely mindless droids the clones were fighting, they were living beings defending their home planet doing what they believed was right. Combined with General Krell’s treachery, the Umbaran campaign is arguably the best arc in TCW. It certainly deserves consideration as it has so many elements to it including fog of war, honor, sacrifice, betrayal, friendly fire, strategy and ingenuity.
This comment should go viral
And that wasn't just some random ARC Trooper Asajj killed. That was Commander Colt, leader of the Rancor Battalion, one of the most well-respected units of the GAR in the early days of the war. Colt even personally oversaw the training of many clone units. He was almost like Commander Cody and Captain Rex... before Commander Cody and Captain Rex (really came into their own, anyway). And he dies, not in a heroic last stand (not quite anyway), but is murdered and humiliated by Asajj. That almost certainly was horrifying to a lot of clones, especially those who had fought with and/or trained under Colt. I imagine that while Asajj was well-known and feared before this, after the death of Colt, she became utterly despised by the men of the GAR.
I hope he talks more about how Ventress is much more adept in the Light Side now. As we’ve seen from Rebels, the ability to connect with large predatory animals like that monster that attacked her is no small feat. Ventress, as much as she wants to hide it, has grown much gentler since we last saw her. She’s become a Grey Jedi like Ahsoka, and I think that’s really cool!
I was honestly impressed Crosshair gave her his hand, that shows alot
I was too but then again omega told him that she never gave up on him. I think it was a sense a familiarity with her situation, that made him lend her a hand.
Yeah crosshairs seems to only actually listen to orders when it’s omega telling him like when she was teaching him how to meditate in a previous episode he listened to her then so when she said trust her so he chose to trust omegas instincts as it was her instincts that saved him and helped him
I had this exact thought during my watch. She committed some of the worst acts against clones specifically, starting all the way back in the original clone wars movie/pilot. You have to imagine that she’d have had a sizable reputation amongst clones. Great topic for a video!
IF commander wolffe shall her today he would proabbly have no problom executing her it seems after order 66 lot of the clones became fearless due to there inhibitor chips
Ventress showing up and testing Omega was fantastic. She's definitely one of my favorite characters from The Clone Wars.
She originated from a rejected design when creating a villain for The Phantom Menace and has honestly become a more layered character. Maul still craves power while Venteess is just seeking control over her own life. She also seems to know that the Emperor is Sidious, so is aware how dangerous the New Order actually is.
Nope, she doesnt know who sidious is. Neither in clone wars nor in the clone wars. In clone wars she is just a rival for anakin.
Imagine Rex or Echo was there with the Bad Batch. They would told them about Ventress during the war.
Both would probably either have flashbacks or just go for the kill
Rex once said I don’t talk to separatist scum
Considering the bad batch and rex and echo cross paths frequently, this is likely to happen in a future episode...
Ventress told the Bad Batch, “I may be many things, but I’m not you’re enemy.” I tend to believe her. She knows what kind of Uber-Evil Palpatine and his Empire is and I think she’s matured enough to form relationships and ally with those that also see the Empire for what it is.
Love how she absolutely handed their asses to them.
Me too, schooled them easily
Ventriss has always been a top 3 character for me. Her and Obi Wan's pseudo sexual banter always got me chucklin'
Her eyes have changed. They look kinder than they did previously. She seems to have a golden heart encased in stone. I have a feeling that Omega will chip away at that stone to find the true heart of Asajj. She is one of my favorite characters in the Star Wars universe. Thanks for sharing Alan. Hope all is well! God Bless!
In my opinion Ventress being a veteran of the clone wars facing clones and being betrayed/ hunted by sith she deserves to a bit overpowered
To be fair, she stood toe to toe with Anakin and Obi-Wan. She is probably one of the most well rounded force users, trained by Jedi, Sith and Nightsisters.
@@jiffypoo5029 very true I forgot to mention that And a lot of times it was a 2v1 and she still held her ground. Definitely one of the top 5 duelist in Star Wars even before order 66.
The clone Ventress kissed was not a captain but was 1 of 4 commanders of Rancor battalion which was more of spec ops and were mostly made of ARF and ARC troopers, his name Colt.
Asajj was laid to rest in the pools of Dathomir and embraced by the Magick of Nightsister spirits.
Spirits of Powerful Nightsisters resurrected their champion in the pools of Dathomir, resurrection is kind of their thing.
Maybe she did actually die by the hands of duko, that line she said at the end “I have a few lives left” maybe the witches put some kind of resurrection spell on her
Your attracted to her ain't you Alan.
I can tell by the way you talk about her, your eyes are fluttering and you have a massive smile on your face. 😂
Seeing her like this is refreshing when you know more about her past then just, she an assassin for dooku, knowing she spent nearly 20 years being trained by a Jedi who was killed by pirates, after finding her as an orphan, she was always losing the people she loved most and then dooku found her, betrayed her, etc, she really has such a tragic story and she has a very good chance at something like redemption
Really hope we get to see Rex and Echo learn about Ventress, it's a lot more personal for them. Even better would be them actually meeting Ventress
Ventress is a whirlwind of emotions, changing so much over a short amount of time. She's so fascinating
She looks friggin great with hair 😂
Asajj is the best character of the Clone Wars for sure, I am so happy that they retconned the book!
It doesn't even need to be a retcon. Quinlan laid her to rest in the pools of dathomir. No retcon needed just 1 line of dialog of a 20 second flashback of the spirits resurrecting her.
She is actually attractive now. Both Physically and Personally. Her new levels of compassion and concern as well has letting her hair grow out and actually gaining a little weight, she filled out quite nicely.
As a character in the Star Wars Universe, I think she's a very interesting character. Or was. TBD after her resurrection...
But I'm 100% certain if I was actually IN the Star Wars Universe and met her, I'd not come near her with a 50-foot pole. She's murderous, a little unhinged, angry, unpredictable, severe, vengeful, and aggressive. Those characteristics make for a GREAT character, but in real life, you would not have anything to do with someone like that unless forced to do so.
Everyone in Star Wars has choices to make, and a lot of them come with really awful backstories, and most of them make good choices, good decisions, and try to be better. Asajj made a lot of very, very bad choices, for a very, very long time. Her shift to being a better person really hasn't been that long.
But I'm completely on board for her continuing down a better path. I'm just saying...*stares intently at Ventress*... "I'm watching you."
I’m hoping we get to see Ventress venture back to Dathomir where she encounters Maul living at the old nightsister encampment.
"Shes a warcriminal"
Meanwhile Crosshair: 🙈🙉🙊
Rex: Oh she's nothing. You should have seen General Skywalker in his prime. Us clones of the 501st kept a counter on the number of rotations since he last committed a war crime. We'd be lucky if we made it into double digits.
its ironic both sith assasins died yet still survived order 66 but as one was able to move on from their past the other did not leading to mauls final death.
while ventress is probably sitting pretty with quin on tanalor.
fml, now I want Ventress and Quinlan to meet up with Cal and Merrin and have a Jedi/Nightsister hybrid academy on Tanalor.
@@jiffypoo5029 hay i mean they need to repopulate somehow. plus now the night sisters dont live on a completly shit world like before. atleast theirs a bright side
Ventriss is more of a dark jedi than a sith after her redemption arc
I love this character arc. I loved her as a bady and her new middle path. She’s a real kind of character that you find here and there through life. I’m sure there’s a lot of killing left. The Empire is just in the nascent phase of their wicked fascism.
Transformation is our path through the horrible no matter what that means to you and that is always a personal story.
As horrendous as the actions were from Ventress, she was right: There was no “right side” in this conflict. Both parties had politicians and groups of freedom loving people, as well as cruel, vile and manipulative groups. By time of order sixty- six, it was too late for either faction to realize the true rouse.
General Grievous the Clone Blender might also be a big fear
Oh, yeah. We all remember that moment when Grievous catches some poor sap (a shiny, no less) under one of his mechanical feet and just crushes the dude's head while Obi-Wan, Cody, and everyone else can only watch. That was brutal and probably inspired a lot of hatred from the clones.
Grievous was sadly underrepresented in the Clone Wars. But that’s also what you get when you only ever put him against people who actually have to survive.
@@GGBlaster, the guy is an absolute beast when plot armor doesn't get in the way.
@@occam7382 one shining moment when the 2008 Grievous is still pretty much a monster. I always think that General Grievous is always the same character, be it in Canon or in Legends.
Asajj was one of the very best characters from TCW, with the best arc between them all. I loved when she helped Ahsoka and after, when she talked to Anakin, helping him to clear Ahsoka's name.
But... She should've stayed dead. I don't like when they bring back characters like that... But since she already did... I'd love to see her dealing with her dark tendencies.
We all were terrified of her ! Love her character
In the 2003 clone wars I had no sympathy for ventress. In the bigger picture and learning more of her story. I now pity her, she's been betrayed, forgotten and hunted numerous times. She's done what she's had to do to survive though at times tries to atone to some extent.
2003 Ventress: A clone killer
2008 Ventress: Still a clone killer but also a manipulater of the clones
2024 Ventress: Has hair, drawn more to the light side and is more nicer to the clones but still is a clone killer if you get on her bad side 😂
Sounds more like your average unstable Tsundere.
Considering that she got the best of Obi Wan, Anakin, and Luminara during the beginning of the war, I can see why they would be afraid of her
Therapist: "Ventress with hair isn't real, Trooper. She can't frighten and seduce you."
Ventress with hair: 0:13
Jokes aside, we did see her with hair in her flashback
This is much better than what I saw in the ocean when she dived in after Omega.☠️😭😂😂😂🤣🤣
Okay, so I hear you.
But the hair...
I am surprised anakin had no sympathy for slick when he said that the clones were basically slaves.
I really like where they went with this story...she was REALLY trying to change after Dooku ordered her killed, and even went so far as to spend time trying to help Ahsoka after the false accusations... One of her greatest rivals and enemies until that point. I think she was just finally showing her true uncorrupted self at that point...breaking free of the Sith.
Bad Batch: "I thought you were dead."
Ventress: "My death was greatly exaggerated. So you're the punks i've heard about." Farts out green Nightsister mist
Bad Batch: Visible fear
I see you are a man of culture.
A true man of culture.
Thanks Alan for reminding us of how bad she really was. If most people didn't start until the Seventh season of the Clone Wars
when she was being betrayed. They might have felt more compassion for her. And seeing her be friend Ahsoka after she left the Jedi. This may folks see why they didn't
trust her. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Ventress: "I have a few lives left."
So she did die before and got revived, huh? It would be interesting to see if Quinlan Vos was aware about that.
The book itself said that her body was glowing green after being left in the pool by quin lan. I always thought that meant she was alive.
Your videos are some of my favorite Star Wars content! Always keep it coming Allen!
This is one of my favorite CZcams channels. I love this show and I look forward to every new episode.
I wish Captain Rex and another clone Trooper cam survive from the empire
Omega with ventress is on the same level to the clones as Ezra with maul to Ahsoka
We've seen Dark Side Jedi. Now we're seeing a Light Side Sith.
She’s what the Jedi was scared of with grievous but to the clones that’s how I see it
Thx for the fab explanation for those of us weren’t there. Cheers!
"Im sure the Republic had like, a deck of cards, for all the separatist leaders" someone's played Mercenaries 1 :3
I hope we see her again and find how how she lived. Was it by Magicks or something else? Somehow Ventress returned
Thanks for the video
Man i loved this episode.
There were a lot of episodes of the clone wars where they invaded planets with their own mulishas Umbara being the biggest one
Did anyone else sense some, ahem...tension ,between Ventress and Crosshair. Would be kind of cool if she helps him to meditate with the force. I know there's the story line with Vos and her, but eh maybe.
Ventress honestly reminds me of Nebula from Guardians of the Galaxy in a lot of ways.
Interesting and insightful comments. You also have a very pleasant style to storytelling. Thanks... can't wait to watch this episode of Bad Batch.
I like that she’s left handed or maybe ambidextrous.
Place your bets on the explanation for her return:
1.Dathomir Witchery.
2. Tantiss clone escaped test subject. ( Why the vault has all the security now )
3. Miracle Max "you see, your friend here is what we call mostly dead"
6:39-6:50
Lol! So true.🤣
Don't do my boy COMMANDER Colt dirty like that
Very Nice
I dint like her at first becuase of the enjoyment she had over killing clone troppers😢,but as her character developed she actually grew on me.also is the dc17m just a blaster(like does it not have the configuration option?) And another question is the clone commando gauntlet blade not cannon as well or is it based of the different clone commando phases?.
Perhaps one of the greatest crimes was the Jedi Council allowing children, their Padawans, to fight in the war...
Good vid :)
I honestly really enjoyed Ventress in this episode, I don't read the books and this fits in with what we saw of her in The Clone Wars. I also liked her own way of testing a potential force user which was different from what we have seen before
Has anybody told you that you look like Doug Robb from Hoobastank?
Easily one of the Alan videos of all time.
If even some of Droids survived the end, then there’s hope for Ventress. I never carded for how she “ended” in old canon.
She deserves to find happiness.
Ventress is the best part of clone wars ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Real talk tho... Would.
She says she was pawned in the same war just like the Batch and that they all lost. While she was Dooku's, and by extension Palpatine's, unwitting puppet, she still freely and intentionally committed those war crimes and wasn't tricked or deceived into them.
Ventress is DISNEY'S SECRET WEAPON. But can they capitalize on it
Off-topic, but you should do a video about using space-based starfighters in-atmosphere. It always seems weird to me when TIEs or X-wings show up as air support. They have to transition from miles-per-second velocities in space to miles-per-hour, so much slower and inefficient!
Alan!!! Let’s gooo
im here so fast!!!
I was there so fast, I forgot how to type.
Very funny the batch had no clue who she was 😂
I know it’s not Bad Batch Related, but I’m finally watching Asoka and I noticed that the droids in each faction have “bad guy” or “good guy” voices, and I’m sure this can be carried on to other Star Wars franchises. Is there an in universe reason for this at all?
I still think Ventress is somehow strandcasted from Omega's DNA & her own DNA from Daphamire.
Wow
A TV show for kids they didn't really want to show that stuff
Everyone: riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight ask waxer
Due to their age I am pretty sure they were around at the start of the war. May not have been in active service until after Kamino though.
"...A *woman* could create such division, now that was troubling."
-Sounds about right. 😉 j/k.
It is unfortunate that the Bad Batch doesn't comprehend the significance of Ventress's lightsaber color, that of course being now yellow as opposed to the crimson red which occurs to lightsabers of all other colors (save the Dark Saber) when wielded for any significant amount of time by a dark-side force user. The yellow, as I've researched, is indicative of light-side force users who seek balance between combat and scholarly training/education. As well, I've also found some sources indicating that a yellow lightsaber is often wielded by force users who've turned away from the dark-side of the force and have made strong, positive efforts to operate within the spectrum of the light-side of the force. Pretty significant over all in telling of Ventress's character.
Asajj Ventress and Crosshair share a very similar turning history: loyal to the Separatists/Empire until they were betrayed by those (relative) factions.
is it really the bad batch that have matured since the end of the clone wars, or is it that they have learned to trust omega's judgement when it comes to these situations where she can read people and determine at a glance if they are going to be a threat to them?
I wish we got to see her and rex meet
Smash or pass Asaji?
Me personally? 💥 smash
Was that Alan or Jack Nicholson in today’s video?!
All hail our loving dolphin overlords
What I wonder is how did Asajj outlive the porpoises?
And why weren't they consulted prior to the filming of the Bad Batch? I mean space hunting and Quinlan Vos can be a little wonky sometimes, am I left?
Was it just me but seeing ventress with hair looked very similar hair to omega’s?
Hello my fellow Allen.
I watched this entire video and thought it was great. My allegiance is to democracy and Generation Tech.
the clone that assaj killed on kamino was Arc trooper Colt
I'm renaming her Baba Yaga Mama. That's cannon. Yeah.
Wait Ventress killed Quilan's master ? I thought he survived the war...
Or perhaps it has been retconned with the disney takeover.
"no one's ever really gone". It works in comics not on the screen
