top ten rivalries in starwars

Well, I guess it's sort of true.

"The Force" is what George considers the Light Side, it's the Force. The Darkside is just meant to be the corruption of it, they weren't originally supposed to be 2 halves of a whole, and even now if you bend the Mortis arc a bit you can agree that they're not seperate.

And in that sense, since Sidious would therefor be trying to "corrupt" the Force by tipping it into Darkness, he'd be it's nemesis.

However I don't believe any of that since Mortis, it's just a possible explanation.

Well, Sidious does claim that he, in essence, is the Dark Side itself.

Kirk vs Picard

Still though, Sidious comes from the force. He doesn't act out of its will. Everything that exists inevitably serves the will of the force even if they seem to act in the opposite direction. The Force is basically the ultimate mastermind.

Kenobi and Maul is amongst the best of rivalries.

Abeloth vs everyone else is a pretty good rivalry.

I wouldn't call some of these "rivalries", tbh. Yoda vs. Palpatine being a prime example. They only clashed one time, and Yoda had no idea who Sideous was or that he even existed until just a couple of days before fighting him.

I'd say Obi-Wan vs. Ventress is a great one- she started off being Anakin's rival, but while her relationship with Anakin was more of a generic "worthy opponent" type thing, her relationship with Obi-Wan became a lot more personal.

... in the comics anyway. Dunno how much the show's ****ed up the Obsession events beyond Adi dying in a different way.

EDIT- I'll also throw my hat in with Mara Jade/Xizor and Vader. Vader's micro-penis regarding the Emperor's Hands and anyone else that earns the Emperor's favor is very compelling and has always been presented in a rather subtle manner. Vader knows that he's basically Sideous lapdog, he knows that he was basically manipulated and he kinda hates Sideous for that. At the same time, serving the Emperor and being his favorite servant is a privilege that he'll fight tenaciously for.

👆

Maul / Talzin vs. Sidious - SoD / TCW

Savage vs. Asajj

Obi-Wan vs. Maul

Anakin vs. Dooku

Sidious vs. Yoda

Obi-Wan vs. Grievous

Mace vs. Palpatine / Sidious

A more obscure one would be

Anakin-Ferus Olin

They were like oil and water and their relationship spans back to their time as apprentice, and Anakin was a prodigy that wasnt universally liked , Ferus was a promising well liked student who didnt trust Anakin. Came to head twice, once on korriban and it resulted in a padawan being killed by a stray blaster bolt, and once again during the great jedi purge when Ferus "joined" Sidious, this resulted in a duel and surprisingly both came out alive.

Vader kills Ferus later though.

The Deadly Force and the Star Wars galaxy.
