The Darth Plagueis novel made it seem Sidious was shaking a planet with his power.

Which means what exactly? Powerful in unarmed combat? Lightsaber combat? Force mastery?
They were also Jedi Knights. I have a hard time believing 3 powerful Knights and a Master= 4 of the greatest swordsman the order ever produced.
Also Orgus Din was praised as one of the greatest saber masters in the order, but that didn't stop him from being repeatedly humiliated throughout the JK story arc.

feats say otherwise, there were probably more powerful jedi they could bring, remember they had no intention of fighting the emperor in the first place
Edit: im referencing the HoT strike team

Er, which means they're among the most powerful Jedi in the galaxy at the time? We don't know much about their abilities but we do know they were 'the most powerful', 'the strongest and the most resolute Jedi in the Order.' We don't really need anything else. Vitiate pwned 5 (including Kira who iirc was also a member) of the most powerful Jedi in the Galaxy at the same time easily as per canon. We know Windu's B-Team are among the best swordsman in the galaxy because sources say they are, just like we know Sedoru and Leeha are among the strongest and most powerful Jedi in the galaxy because of the same thing.
So? Satele Shan was a Jedi Knight when she was kicking ass and taking names in the Great War. The Barsen'thor was a Jedi Knight throughout the Lord Vivicar threat. Anakin was a Jedi Knight even after beating Dooku. Jacen was a Jedi Knight up til his fall. The Hero of Tython was a Jedi Knight til the end of the game. Uliq Qel'Droma and Exar Kun were a Jedi Knight's. Revan was a Jedi Knight. Being a Jedi Knight doesn't mean you can't be immensely powerful.
He was? All I've seen was that he was the most veteran Jedi in the Order.
Nope. Most powerful of the time. Kit, Agen, and Saesee are the most accomplished swordsman in the Order's history.
1. Noted as being a prodigy
2. Noted as being a prodigy, and wasn't top tier till they were a Master.
3. Is the Chosen One and a prodigy
4. Blood of the Chosen One
5. Was the avatar of the light and Champion of his age.
6. Both of whom are noted to be prodigies.
7. Revan was a Jedi Master in his novel.
So all you did was cite people who are noted to be exceptions. Those two knights have not been.
Hmm perhaps you are right. I thought he got some hype here. But all I can find is Satele saying don't underestimate Master Orgus. Still he was on the Council at the time.
