That could depend, if it is the most powerful duo then it's just pratically taking the two most powerful people in SW together, if it is the best duo, meaning teamwork and such, then i would take Anakin and Obi-Wan, seeing as they was THE jedi duo!

Anakin was always bickering and whining. But by RotS they seemed to be a pretty good duo. Qui Gon and Obi Wan had the best teamwork. In Clone Wars Mace and Yoda worked well together on Coruscant. "But Commander, who has our left flank?" "The Jedi have the left." Mace and Yoda were destroying droids and it took hundreds of clones to hold the right flank.
Since when was Anakin "always" bitching and whining? I don't remember him ever doing that in a battle by ROTS or close to it. They were described as THE jedi duo, which means they are the best jedi duo, the meaning of how a jedi duo should be. Yoda and Mace were powerful together, but that hardly mean's the best teamwork.
I don't see how Qui-Gon and Obi were above Anakin and Obi, they weren't really that special together were they?

And the Clone Wars cartoon overpowers everyone. If Mace could have done what he did he would have done so at Geonosis and wouldn't need any clone troopers to save him at the arena.
Most powerful I would say is Luke at his best, and DE Sidious, for being the best sith, and having the awefully destructive force storm!
Best team work would probably be Anakin and Obi-Wan, seeing as they got a plan for almost every situation, an approach to very if not to powerful people, and good strategies with their different combat abilities.

Well he lost his father early, so I doubt they'd have much info. If they did however, I bet they'd be quite dangerous, probably in the top 10.
@Crado, I belive that Sidious is more capable than Jacen in an all out fight. He got nearly every single technique that is made, and has made his own. I really doubt nearly anyone can block his force storm, so if Luke holds them off he could launch it and send almost anyone to hell. Also, if the opponents haven't got knowledge of his techniques, they are going to fall.
Jacen might be stronger and all, but Sidious knowledge and storm would make me put him above Jacen. But of course, it is all a matter of choice, so it doesn't really matter....

I've really wanted to address this. It seems that people on this forum like to lie about things like this, I know what quote you're referring to that people seem to have lied about. The actual quote is 'it is believed that he has mastered nearly all the known powers, previously unknown powers, and devises new ones at his pleasure'.
And about the storm, in dispute to what Escape has tried to pass off as fact, there is no evidence that the force storm can be utilised by Sidious on a small scale, and considering the nature of the attack and the fact that Sidious can't even control them perfectly, it's more probable that he can't rather than can.
Kamikz said "nearly" not all. And the 'it is believed' is coming from an omniscient narrarator. So, let's see. Mastering nearly all the known old ones, previously unknown, and new ones that he invents? Um... I'd pretty much say, yeah, his knowledge supercedes any other Sith Lord.
The only instance in which Sidious hasn't been in control of his Force storm is when Luke, Leia, and Anakin interfered with it. Unless you can cite another example, I don't see why - otherwise - he can't control them fine.
I wasn't so much directly addressing Kamikz, more the lies that have been flying around the forum. It was all cool when the Ancients were considered > everyone, but Sidious is no longer the underrated, so I really wanted to address this.
And nice way of misinterpreting the statement.
1. It is believed - clearly referring to in story characters, who are not infallible, unless you want to argue that it is believed by the executives at Lucasarts (LOL!).
2. that he has mastered nearly all the known powers - nearly all, not every.
3. previously unknown powers - no quantity is assigned.
4. and devises new ones at his pleasure - no quantity is assigned.
However point 1 pretty much renders points 2 - 4 invalid.
"he now boasts to Luke that he has perfect control of his force storms! Whether such boasts are true or not (they are not)" - from the endnotes of Dark Empire #6, this pretty much settles the matter, he cannot perfectly control them.
QED mother****er, I see you ignored the rest of my points, does this mean that you can't make an argument for Sidious' Force Storms working on a small scale?
Considering all the arguments that you've made as Nebaris, Dessel, and now Crado - I don't think I need to take much effort to insult or belittle your intelligence.
The quote was provided by an omniscient narrarator. That he knows nearly all (which can be inferred to mean a considerable majority) techniques, ones that are previously unknown, and ones that he himself events at his leisure, it would mean that, overall, his knowledge surpasses any known Sith Lord we've encountered.
Unless, once again, you may provide me with a Sith Lord who knows more.
Would you like this to attribute to your third ban?
