Anakin + Kenobi throughout TCW to ROTS is too much for him and with two complete masters of lightsaber combat, whom could quite easily analyse his weakness and employ kinetic saber combat, you are looking at an uphill fight.

I agree, this should be a close fight, especially because of the barren environment; I'd say the terrain does bestow an advantage for the team, seeing how there's nothing for the good Count to batter them with.
That being said, I'm not sure if I can side against Dooku, here--given the chance to take out Lsu with the Force, Kas'im alone is no match for him in any fashion. Then again, if they keep the pressure saber-wise, they have a chance.

Agreed. And Lsu's echani foresight grants her really excellent teamwork.

Though I believe that Kas'im would present decent challenge to Dooku even 1 on 1. He is the only Brotherhood Lord whom I admire and have real credibility. The others not so much.

Dooku isn't powerful enough to take out Raskta with TK, and he would get beaten pretty damn easily by either in a lightsaber battle. Against both of them he gets owned with laughable ease.
Lsu is not good at defending herself. Even with BM augmentation, she failed to defend herself against Bane's telekinetic attack and was saved by another Jedi.
Effectiveness in dueling is dependent upon the factors of raw power and command of the Force. Marital skills are not sufficient exclusively.
Being able to move so fast that you completely outclass Bane in speed, BM amp or otherwise, is as sure a sign as any that your Force Speed in combat is as good as it gets. I briefly skimmed through the other thread and DMB was 100% correct, her lack of skill in defending against Force attacks is a matter of specialisation, not power. Farfalla, who was obviously more skilled at defending against Force attacks, was quite clearly nowhere near as fast as Raskta when operating under the same amp. The idea that Raskta is in any way lacking in Force power as it relates to duelling is completely incompatible with the source material.
I'm not saying that Dooku sucks or anything, but he isn't a top tier Force User (I'd argue Kas'im is more powerful, and that he isn't in the same universe as Bane when it comes to Force power/mastery). That she was susceptible to Bane's attacks in no way indicates that Dooku would be able to take her out.
There are some battlemasters/weapon specialistis who are technically proficient but lacking in power, such as I would presume the likes of Cin Drallig and Anoon Bondara. Neither Kas'im or Raskta are one of them. They each outclass Dooku in both technical prowess and Force enhanced combat ability.
