I'm siding with team one. Vader is a more refined duelist than Malgus, and Anakin bested Dooku, which puts him above Maul.

It could go either way. Maul can take Vader, while Malgus stalemate with Anakin, team 2 has better chance.
Lmfao that logic, would that put him above Kenobi as well ? I doubt that.
Anakin bested Dooku via using his weakness. Not because he was better duelist, which is why Obi-Wan bested Emokin. If you only want to see a defeated Dooku for comparing their lightsaber skills, then you can look at Maul's apprentice Savage Opress, who has disarmed Dooku in a lightsaber combat, only failed to kill him because of Dooku's force powers.

Exactly. Dooku's Form having a Weakness- Lack pf Mobility, was specifically mentioned as a "Weakness". Whilst Anakin having trouble meeting blows head-to-head while fending off a second attacker, was never mentioned as a "Weakness."
Wait...
And it was specifically mentioned as being a "Weakness" Twice. Once at the point Anakin was hamerring down on Dooku's defenses and again just before Anakin chopped Dooku's hands off..
Wait...
Lucas even said in the audio commentary to that scene: "The purpose of this scene was to highlight Dooku's weakness to Anakin's specific style of duelling,"
No lie.. That's exactly what he says..
And Sidious tells General Grievous about Dooku's loss: "It was a necessary loss. Soon I will have a new Apprentice, one far younger, and one Without Any Specific Dueling Weakness,"
Again, No lie. That's exactly what Sidious says about replacing Dooku with Anakin.

None of your arguments address the fact that Dooku had never been stated to have a "weakness" to Anakin's style, let alone having this mentioned as an issue when he was defeated.
On the contrary Anakin's style was the one specifically narrated as having a "weakness" to Dooku's mobility right before Dooku kick slammed him onto his butt.
And You KNOW very well Dooku's form was only said to be an issue "WHILE FENDING OFF A SECOND ATTACKER. "
