The REAL villains journey

So after the CLS event, the forums have been flooded with ideas of a darkside journey. The main idea I've seen is having a journey end with Anakin turning to Vader and getting a red eyed version of him.
While Vader is the major antagonist of the original series, the villain of the series is clearly Palpatine.

So my idea would be to focus on Palpatine.. but in reverse.

- We start with EP and RG vs Vader and Luke, the last we see of Palpatine

- Then move to a general fight of the Empire pitting EP, Vader and other Empire toons vs a Rebel Squad

- Now we're at order 66, and we have Darth Sidious vs Yoda

- Then we pit DS, Anakin and RG vs Mace and Kit

- And for the final tier, well, have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? Upon completing this tier, the player unlocks Plagueis at 7*.
I'd like him to be a completely support character like Hermit Yoda, but when lowered under 50% health his support basic changes to an attack as he hated lightsaber duels and only used one when he was forced to. But I'll leave his abilities to you guys to think about.

Obviously this event would really be for high level players, I just thought it'd be a fun event and a fun way to unlock a cool character.

    How do I see his Journey ?

    1.Start with Qui Gon facing Maul and dying
    2.then Anakin vs Zam (you would just need Anakin to get him in his "ship" on Corrusant chasing her
    3. then killing tsuken after finding her dead mother
    4. then fighting Dooku in a dual stage : first in the cave on Geonosis, second on Grievous' Ship rescuing Palpatine.
    5. Fighting Mace to save his master on stage 1, killing younglings and jedi with clones at his side on stage two.
    6. fighting against Obi-Wan with the Darth Vader (Mustafar Version) and unlocking him at the end.

    Because Sith Anakin totally deserves higher-than-legendary status.

    Please, we have pre and post-suit anakin. He can be a Marquee or legendary but not exclusive.

    No way - here's why:

    1. Qui Gon and Maul's battle had little to nothing to actually do with Anakin
    2. Anakin vs. Zam in chase - this would imply that Anakin would then be locked into a Coruscant speeder as his "ship" rather than any Jedi Starfighter - which a lot of people would be upset about (including myself)
    3. Killing tuskens - possibly but this would be Padawan Anakin - so already we are looking at another Anakin.
    4. Fighting Dooku - again Padawan Anakin
    5. Fighting GG, Mace works.


    All of the stages I describe are leading to the fact he went to the Dark Side. Qui Gon would have been a more flexible master than Obi-Wan, and when I mention this ship, it was only for the event, not for the Ship's battle. Obviously, you can't fight in space with it.
    The rest of it leads to his path to the DS.

    Revan establishes the sith rule of two... negating it will basicly nullify every star wars movie ever made... so no revan = no sith lords after him... so no darth bane, zannah, tenebrous, plagueius, palpatine, vader etc...

    In a roundabout way no revan means the mandalorians probably would have overun the republic and after subjugating the republic, they probably would have hunted the remaining jedi & sith down like predators hunt aliens... for sport. And SW universe would be a vastly diffrent than it is currently... so revan & nihlus really cannot be removed from canon.

    Umm correct me if im wrong but, wasnt bane the one who established the rule of two?
    @Loose_Lee


    Yes bane ultimately implemented it... after learning about it from his research into revans teachings on a sith holocron, which also supposedly made its way over time into palpatines possession...or at least a partial copy of revans original holocrom that bane gained possession of.

    Without revan doing this bane wouldnt have gained the deep wisdom & insight into the force on such a macro scale to implement the rule of two.

    And Anakins journey ? Really ? Come on.

    Anakin's Journey is the real MVP here in the Star Wars universe. Turns out he's the Chosen One. While movies do it not as much justice as they well should, the Clone Wars do help to make it much better.

    @Guest I like this idea very much, nice!

    Not sure on the whole reverse thing tbh
    Plagueis being in the game is very unlikely imo, although it would be cool theres no design for him that is canon.

    Villians journey should be the journey that progresses to that character same as Luke progressed to being a Commander.


    I agree with this and so i think we should get a Young Darth Sidious/ Senator/Chancellor Palpatine, that can act as a Republic Character but is mainly designed to act together with Sith/Separatists. Also i think he should be a support, somehow like a DS Hermit Yoda, of course a bit more offensive and of course he needs Anti-Jedi-Synergies...

    This game guves you no benefit, if you choose the Dark Side


    It gives you anger, hatred, which fuels the dark side on you. Might end up throwing your phone on the wall, but that is part of life.
