I'd say Sidious in h2h, and Sidious by a very slight margin in every other match.

That is definitely non-canon as it is very clearly contradicted by the movie.

I analyzed their bladelocks once. Their strength actually seems evenly matched.

That's just how they fight. Sidious expresses emotion when he's trying, Yoda on the other hand is dead serious and focused when he's trying.
It never shows how Sidious loses his weapon and there may have been a huge environmental factor in their duel on the podium. So I looked at their other feats and Sidious's performance impresses more than Yoda's performance against Dooku.

Yoda shows when he's struggling as per him trying to absorb Sidious' lightning.
Nice cop out. Yoda disarmed Sidious fair and square, Sidious retreated into the Grand Convocation chamber because he knew on even ground Yoda would be victorious. Also Yoda's duel with Dooku is pretty irrelevant to this discussion.

It is. Yoda gave him somewhat of a fight, but Palpatine proved he was superior. There isn't much to add they're on the same tier, but Palpatine edges him out in just about every category. I'm surprised this is so hard to accept.

No, but I distinctly remember Yoda running after losing
He also couldn't kill Yoda as that would've ****ed up continuity issues with the OT, ergo making Luke being able to defeat Vader a virtual impossibility.
Nice try though

Yoda admits that he didn't have what it takes to defeat Sidious. That being said they are closer than Carthage seems to think.

I said they were on the same tier, I just said that Palpatine edges him out by a little.
