I was rewatching the fight between Savage, Ventress and Dooku and I notived how when Savage loses control he was powerful enough to fling both of them around like nothing to the and even managed to make Dooku choose to leave rather then keep fighting.

I'm not saying he's anywhere near as strong as Dooku on the whole, but it's clear that he can tap into some very deep reserves of power when he's angry enough, likely because of how he was created. It's also very impressive how much force lighting he was able to tank and still get up and keep fighting.

I think that the main thing holding him back was the fact that he isn't naturally evil, his connection to the darkside is forced (heh heh) on him so he can only tap into his rage when he is pushed by excrutiating pain. He is also very inexperienced and has poor technique with a saber since he barely got any training before getting double betrayed. considering all that It's pretty crazy that he was trading blows with jedi masters and fighting along side Maul pretty well.

Unfortunately he was put up against the strongest person in the universe and never got a chance to grow.

I've seen quite a lot of posts on this sub asking if Maul has forgotten, forgiven or is going to go after Obiwan and I just wanted to remind people we know that Maul thoguht he was dead until he sees him in the holocron in rebels.

And it's not even that Maul was looking for him, the first thing he searches for (whatever it was) just shows him a void, it's only after that that he pushes deeper desperate for anything to hold onto that he learns Kenobi is alive.

Here's the full scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vvZco0xqgk

There is something so terrifying about seeing a kind and compasionate hero fully commit to killing a villain because of just how monsterous they are.

1. Darkseid from Superman TAS and Justice League: >!Superman may be the single most iconic "Fundementally good" characters in existance and that's true mostly in the shows, but Darkseid is one character who he is 100% willing to put down. Not only did he invade earth and kill a man Superman cared deeply about, he also brainwashed Superman and used him as a puppet to commit atrocites in his name. Eventually he traps Darkseid on a ship doomed to explode and chooses to stay there just to make sure Darkseid doesn't escape, when Batman pulls him out he is even mad he lost the chance to beat him to death himself. It's kind of insane seeing this side of such a normally gentel character.!<
2. Pitou from Hunter x Hunter: >!The protagonist Gon spends most of the series being a fairly happy go lucky kid who goes through a lot but keeps a cheerful outlook but when his close friend and mentour Kite is killed infront of him and his corpse is turned into a horrific puppet. Gon starts on a tragic spiral into becoming so desperate to save him and then avenge him that he sacrifces nearly everything to kill the person who did it.!<
3. Knives from Trigun: >!The protagonist Vash has a strict rule against killing people and spends nearly the whole series desperately trying to avoid doing so while being pursued by bounty hunters and criminals all trying to kill him. Knives is Vash's brother and dispises him for being merciful to pitiful humans and has dedicated himself to forceing Vash to suffer as much as possible which he does by forcing him to kill thousands of people. In the end Vash realises that the killing Knives is the only way to end this cycle of pain he's been stuck in.!<
