WHY JAGHATAI KHAN IS THE GREATEST PRIMARCH! 

There’s one big thing that Jaghatai did with Magnus’ Shard. While the Shard ranted and raved, he patiently waited and asked one of the most heartbreaking questions that just goes to show how, while it is under layers of armor and defenses, Jaghatai asked Magnus “How do I save you?”

Let's not forget that the Great Khan once made a WAAGH of Orks afraid to fight and want to retreat in fear. I've not heard of anyone else ever making Orks afraid to fight and want to run away!

Hes got the rarest thing a primark can have, common sense.

I think his best moment is when he's speaking with Sanguinius on the potential future outcomes of his decision of where to go and fight. Finally he asks Sanguinius "Will i save lives?" "Many" "That is what I was made for."

He deserves the title for him asking Sanguinius if he would save lives, alone the rest is just gravy.

Definitely totally underrated. His greatest power is common sense. Something truly rare in WH40K

Jagatai is my favorite primarch

'I want all the loyalists behind and on the walls!' Rogal Dorn 'Me and the boys are just nipping out for a bike ride' The Warhawk!

The fact that Jaghatai Khan is the greatest primarch is self-evident. ; )

judging from what the emperor's vision for what the primarchs were to be, it would actually make jaghatai the greatest primarch, he valued life even more than vulcan, he never made rash stupid decisions, he always picked his battles well and he was willing to die in defence of regular terrans while the other primarchs like dorn and sanguinius were more focused on protecting the emperor during the heresy, heck even the emperor ended up valuing the khan so much that despite being preoccupied with literally holding all of chaos from bursting forth into terra he still spared time to grab the khan's soul from the warp and stitch it back to his body so he wouldn't die after he had beaten the breaks off demon mortarion, this is crazy cuz ferrus had been dead for a while and he was in no hurry to bring him back or even vulcan

*Jaghatai* Do you see me? What will be the consequences of inaction?’ *Sanguinius* ‘I see fire, and blood, and a world laid waste if you do not act.’ *Jaghatai* ‘If I act?’ said the Khan. Sanguinius opened his eyes to look at him. *Sanguinius* ‘There is a grave risk to you. A confrontation unlooked for, and if you survive, a flight from one danger into greater peril.’ *Jaghatai* ‘Who will I face?’ *Sanguinius* ‘I cannot divine.’ *Jaghatai* ‘Will I save lives?’ Sanguinius nodded. ‘Many.’ *Jaghatai* ‘That is what I was made for,’ said the Khan. ‘I will ride out.’

Jag is my favourite Primark, after him the Lion and Guilleman. For me he has the ability to always turn the tables of any situation and is so much smarter than given credit.

00:05 ok you sold it to me, the Khargan wins

Now, common sense aside... he proclaimed his loyality by literally ripping out a Greater Demons heart with his bare hands. He saved many lives of Terras civilian population during the siege. Heck, he saved the siege when Mortarions plagues began wearing down Rogal (and the mere notion of a counter attack did wonders for morale).

00:00 oh fine you make a pretty good case, I guess I agree he’s the greatest

I would love for him to be the next primarch to come back. I feel like his lore gives him the perfect foundation to hop back into the fray: he has an open ended disappearance chasing after prey, he’s got enough anti hero qualities that we can keep the grim dialed up (don’t want it too hopeful), and he’s mysterious but not in a ham fisted over the top obnoxious kind of way (looking at you Alpharius/Omegan)

You had me at: "he ripped the heart out of a demon with his bare hands."

Also, when fighting Morty he literally was chosing not to fight back. Instead 'He withstood' as a dig at Morty being to weak to break away from chaos. Yes, he may have been on deaths door after but the fact that when he started fighting back he basically bodied morty is insane

The Khan is the adult in the room, even when standing next to the Emperor.

Am a simple man I see Jaghatai I click and I like

Jaghatai is so on-brand, even his videos go by faster.

"I can die...and THAT makes all the difference." [goosebumps].👍

Been my favorite ever since he started getting fleshed out in the lore. Cunning and thoughtful, fierce and measured, a scholar and a warrior and the fastest boi in the land.

His endurance is... Superior.

The "White Scars" and their primarch need all the love they can get! (Honestly, though, my favorite primarch is Vulkan! (Stomp, stomp!)

“Horus is a traitor and The Emperor is a tyrant”

I too saw the reddit post asking this exact same question, still going with Dorn but the Khan is a close 2nd, he is awesome. Love the videos Rho, ty my dude!

Comment for the ACTUALLY greatest Primarch: Jaghatai

Start playing “Wolf Totem” by the Hu.

For the Great Khan!

Unlike Angron and Konrad ones this video actually makes sense

Anyone intrigued by the Khan go watch Amber King’s massive video on him it made him one of my absolute favorites

*Mortarian HATES this...*

what i like about the khan is he was loyal to the emperor but he was very much his own man he made up his own mind no one made it up for him😊

Just watched a long hour video on Jagatai Khan, I need no further convincing. Still, nice video!

⚪🟢 Genghis Khan was the symbol of Life and Death. Thus Jaghatai Khan also becomes the symbol of Life and Death (for his tragic poisonous and plagued corruption). As Daemon Primarch of Nurgle he changes his title from Warhawk to Deathhawk! Wood, the true element of Nurgle's weapons and bodies! Jaghatai Khan and White Scars as Nurgle's Legion, with poisonous wooden skeletons and thorns, bringers of the plague storm (with Rotigus Rainfather at their side). After each hunt and victory they dip the skulls in poison, in honor of Nurgle. (They symbolize the more natural side of the God of Death)

He is top tier For sure. He gets over looked way to often.

The Khan is definitely badass. He is one of the most interesting primarchs that until the horus heresy series I really didn't know much about. I love how he was Magnus friend.

He has empathy, common sense, cares for his people, strategic and an exceptional warrior to boot.

I agree with this. As someone who never saw the Imperium as the good guys, but also saw Chaos as even worse, Jaghatai always appealed to me.

I think it would have been great to see the scars and wolves fight together. There would have been some epic banter! 😆

"The Khan ran his hand in his face, rubbing the scar that ran down his left cheek 'he has done this 14 times before' he said. 'When my brother horus was returned, there were festivals for a month they told me. now they barely notice another one arriving.'" - Warhawk of Chogoris Looking at these primarch videos and the diminishing return on views for every video reminds me of this quote from the Khan. Maybe it's due to popularity of certain Primarchs over others. Or maybe it's due to diminishing returns and burnout. I hear people speculate what wargear each loyalist would return with to add intrigue, but much like when the legions were first created, the first gets all the special attention and focus compared to the others. We've only had two return as far as we know, , but it makes me wonder if we'll get fatigue with every new primarch despite them coming out ~5 years apart from each other

"And I refused to be a fool, dancing on the strings held by all those bigshots. I don't apologize, that's my life." -don jagathai khan

For the Khan!

I gotta say this is such a good idea for primarch videos, stating the case for why they all are the greatest. Good job

The Kahn the greatest? Maybe, there can be a debate. Coolest? No question mtha fker. All the best lines. Always chill, like sub-zero. You might be cool, but you'll never be JK riding out to the Lion's gate at the head of a hoard of sword-wielding Mongol-coded jet bikers cool. And we all know that all the greatest 40k players go by rule of cool. So...

Who else is bracing for best primarch: Perturabo? 😂

Jaghtai is on my top 3!!!

Incorrect. He was not the only one to make a deliberate choice during the Heresy. You yourself raised the point that Alpharius had to make a dreadful choice (which is why some people claim he's the greatest if you can believe it xD) EDIT: AWWW bless you. I type my comment, resume playback, and you continue with "what about Alpharius?" ......... Well played, Sir.

Sucks how many times Guilliman gets beaten one on one by his brothers. I wonder if Jaghatai and the Lion fought who would win.

Jaghatai was & always will be, his *own* man.

7:00 because Kahn has basic common sense (funny not to common in primarchs) if he was aggressive with Russ it would not be good for him.

About time!

Jagatai won against Mortarion because he came to die and win. He gave his life to banish Morty. On the facts it was a draw... A banishment for an near-death. But Jagatai wanted that and Morty did not. So it is a win for the Khan.

I hear you do strange things to your warriors 🔥

Not only did he beat a daemon elevated Motarian. He beat him after showing his endurance was superior and shit talked him the entire time

Sanguinius is undoubtedly the greatest Primarch, but the Khan is easily my favourite.

NOW you're talking my lingo!

Hes def my personal favorite

So here’s what I’m wondering. People often depict the primarchs as matching the ethnicities of their legions but I don’t thank that can be the case, they are all just clones on the emperor more or less. So the khan is often depicted as a Mongolian-esque lad, lad, much like his legion are meant to be, but wouldn’t he actually be an Anatolian, so Caucasian looking dude just wearing the trappings of a a Mongolian person. Same for the other Primarchs too

I always used to think of the White Scars as boring and barely even though of Jaghatai at all, but The Khan as over time sneakily become one of my favourite characters. Still don't like the Scars enough to paint that much white though

They need to bring him back 👍👍

Jagatai's superpower is turning his opponents strengths against them. I'd think if anyone actually stood a chance to beat Horus if he didnt have to do what he did against Mortarion it would be him.

For the Khan!

EARLY APPEARANCE FOR JAGHATAI GRAHHHHH

FINALLY....You got it right.

THE KHAN LIVES!!!!!!!

3 moments sold me on Jaghatai being my favorite and its certainly not the often misinterpreted insult to fulgrim..1 his conversation with the shard of Magnus on Prospero, that shit was gut wrenching..2 Sanguinius, Constantin and him having a laugh with the local guard leader during the siege when he said "id rather strip naked and charge all of them than give any one of you an order"..3 when when he and his men sacrificed themselves against the death guard to save to people which was who Jaghatai viewed all this fighting to be for anyway, the regular people

For the Khan! For the Emperor!

WE RIDE!

I thought the question was answered with the Curze video.

Finally someone said it

Jag is very literally more powerful than RG. so bringing up RG's loss to Mortarion really is apples to oranges.

Fuck yes brother

It's both his warrior abilities and his ability to see through the BS. The War Hawk is the greatest primarch.

Who is the Greatest primarch( after Sanguinius)

For THE KHAN!!!!!!!

I'm always for the Khan, but don't presume to know the Alpha legion😂 Hydra Dominatus... For the Emperor

Walls of terra!

Because.

Khaaaaaaaannn!!!

🎉🎉🎉🎉

The Khan is the goat. Vulkan close 2nd

He is the greatest in the capacities you list, however as a Primarch qua Primarch, he is not the greatest. His role, his entire purpose of being, was to serve the Emperor in his crusade to protect humanity and then retire to the hobbit village the Big E made for his sons. Jaghatai is independent, he never really agreed to serve the Emps, he just knew it was the wiser of the two options. He questioned whether Horus was right and the E was wrong. That makes him a fantastic Primarch to the White Scars, but terrible at his created purpose.

Lion El’Jonson. I mean first! 😂

I never understood how the Emperor had African and Asian kids...

Watch playback speed 1.25

I normally LOVEEE your vids...BUT, Lord Rho...I feel like your faith in our Khan is lacking. You didn't elaborate that he made orks run in terror. The only brother he didn't know how to defeat was Morty, whom he beat. He was the switched at birth and forever became a wild card. Even Malcy wasn't sure which side the Khan would take. ALL of this points to his greatest trait...independence. The Khan is the greatest because he is largely un-tethered.

The greatest primach? lol he got lost in the webway.. that doesn’t sound so great to me

Regarding your point about Alpharius, who knows whicj :facts" are facts? GW overdid the bait-and-awitch fakeouts. The dead horse has been beaten to a fleshy puddle.

One more off the list untill we get to the obvious and actual best primarch, Vulcan. 😂

He weighed chaos as an option.

Jaghatai is good but.. I feel like the best would be the X factor. The kinda that did the best in almost all regards. Doe Jaghatai is good.

The Khan betrayed Leman Russ, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Only a problem if we still live in this parasitic monetary market system. Our technology is evolving beyond it, so can we

Him and Vulkan are my two favorite 😊

Yeah the khan is one of my faves along with Corax

He was certainly the smartest because he tried his best to stay very far away from everyone else
