I know it's rather large for a fight, but we've heard how powerful the Dark Council is, I'm curious what people think on how well does it stack up against the strongest Jedi Council?
Someone on the Dark Council ****s up by killing Kenobi early on, and then they all run away after seeing Skywalker go batshit crazy ragdolling all of them.

The PT Jedi council are the greatest of the Jedi Order's Golden age.
__________________ "Vader's pulse and breathing were machine-regulated, so they could not quicken; but something in his chest became more electric around his meetings with the Emperor; he could not say how. A feeling of fullness, of power, of dark and demon mastery -- of secret lusts, unrestrained passion, wild submission -- all these things were in Vader's heart as he neared his Emperor. These things and more."
Depends upon who faces whom and what decisions are made, IMO. However, Darth Marr can adopt leadership role and same can be expected from Yoda.
Jedi Strike Team:
Yoda is likely the strongest Force-user in this contest (without augmentations of any kind). He is a major threat and should be taken care of earlier. His performance is likely to attract attention anyways.
Mace Windu and Anakin Skywalker are great warriors. Plo Koon, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Shaak Ti are also decent.
Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar and Saesee Tinn are skilled swordsmen but their melee skills may not help them much if this battle tilts towards exchange of Force powers.
The rest are mediocre and/or fodder.
Sith Strike Team:
Assuming that this is Darth Nox from the end of his story arc, augmented by the raw power of several Force ghosts and an enhanced body; I am not sure what will stop him.
Darths Marr, Jadus and Baras are powerhouses as well. Darth Decimus is also counted among the best warriors of the Empire. If Darth Baras is augmented by the power of Sel Makor or something else like he was at the end of his story arc, then he is even a greater threat.
Darth Vowrawn is mediocre but his intelligence can be troublesome if somebody cooperates with him. Others are not well-known. However, a Dark Council member is a powerful Sith Lord on average.

I expect casualties on both sides. However, I believe that the Jedi will dwindle in numbers faster then the Sith side. After the weakest members are routed, Sith would still be in greater numbers and may flank the remaining Jedi.

Members of the Dark Council are (officially) among the most powerful Sith in the galaxy on average. Yes, few have publicity but it is not wise to assume that others are fodder. Each becomes a leader of a sphere of influence within the Empire.
As a hint:-
In the Emperor's absence, the galaxy's most domineering, powerful, brilliant, and cunning Sith lead the Empire's path to glory. (Star Wars: The Old Republic: Encyclopedia)
For example, Darth Ravage have not been officially explored in the context of his abilities but he witnessed the kaggath of Darth Nox and Darth Thanaton and felt that he could do better then Darth Thanaton in his place.

She is not only subtle and experienced, but very capable indeed. Seats on the Jedi Council aren't handed out as party favors.
—Revenge of the Sith novelization
The Jedi Council consisted of 12 wise and powerful Jedi Masters who convened within the towering Jedi Temple on Coruscant.
—Star Wars Databank
While it's undeniable the Jedi High Council has some of the greatest Jedi, the quotes you provided to make a comparison with are absolutely pathetic, KEK
