It's more that the likes of Tott Doneeta and Odan-Urr are already pretty powerful and Ulic was being thought of as at least around their level if not superior as a Jedi; as a Sith he grew in power substantially and was considered the only person who could actually challenge Exar in a meaningful way.

Worth noting he was probably still a novice Jedi at the time of his ascension to being Dark Lord of the Sith :hmm
Per issue 2 of the arc's little back cover summary thing
Don't recall too much going on between Arca's death and his fight with Kun anyway
That said?
I'm incredulous of Dooku having advantage in the force
Sure, his best feat of having Yoda exert some modicum of effort to deflect his Lightning is nice, but wouldn't be what I call being comparable to standing alongside ****er's like Thon :hmm
I thought someone once said that the back cover summary isn't canon and that it's neither the author or editor who adds that but rather the marketing department?
Being second only to he who may very well be galactic history's greatest swordsman (Insider #62) in the prime of the Jedi, with 7 decades or so to refine his skill, is enough to give the Count the nod here. Besides which, he has the feats and accolades to give him the advantage in the Force.

Ulic... Dooku is build around combat line.. Ulic is like Yoda ataru... Dooku is weak against those type of combatant..
Ulic is form V Djem so.. but HE FREAKIN MASTERED THE FORM HE IS ACROBATIC YOU NOOBS SKILL SET
N°1 strengh based it give an edge on stamina over Dooku..... N°2 ACROBATIC
MOTHER FREEKIN UDGE EDGE. While a standard form IV user get cut down : "I have the high ground" style..... Ulic is just a master at his art...
I don't recall many instances of Ulic using offensive force powers other than blasting back those multiple Jedi. I really need to re-read Tales of the Jedi, but his amulet seemed more for augmentation/defensive powers. His defensive abilities should be able to repel anything if not most of all Dooku's force powers, but he's going to lose a duel for a majority

We know that he can use the amulet for lightning/concussive blasts and so on, it's just a case of whether or not you want to believe he would based on what we've seen of him. If Dooku started using the Force against Ulic I think it's safe to say he'd respond in kind. Not seeing that ending well for Dooku given that Ulic is a rival of Exar's in terms of power and above a lot of other TotJ powerhouses.
