Overrated and Underrated
Let's here some thoughts on Jedi/Sith that were overrated and underrated and give reasons. I have one:
Underrated
Darth Sidious: He defeated Yoda but people still say he didn't because the overrate Yoda. They say he lost to Mace but didn't Sidious try everything he could to turn Anakin so wouldn't he want to seem defenseless?
Now let's hear some more.

No, it's more like we rate them how they are and people like you don't want them to be weaker than others so you say the ones who are stronger are overrated.
Why do people think Yoda is more powerful than Sidious? Sidious was thrown across the room by a Force push from Yoda. It took Sidious' Force lightning to do that to Yoda. Look at when Sidious is throwing the senate pods at Yoda, he simply dodges them and catches one, twirls it around and throws it back at Sidious. He couldn't do anything to stop it and Yoda threw back Sidiuos' Lightning with his bare hands. If Yoda hadn't been so close he wouldn't have fallen and it's pure luck that he didn't have anything else to land on like Sidious. Also note how Sidious tried to run away and how Yoda left because the clone troopers were coming.
As for Mace, there's hardly proof that he would've let all that happen just in the off chance that that would be the only thing to turn Anakin.

Sidious ran because he doesn't take chances. He doesn't know if he could take Yoda and using the terrian isn't weak its showing your smart.

Sidious doesn't take chances eh? Well than he sure wouldn't have let Mace come that close to killing him now would he?
Sidious did use the terrain to his advantage and I'm not arguing he won, but that is why most people think Yoda's more powerful, not necessarily smarter.

Here's one:
Count Dooku
Ever since ROTS people say he's not as good as people think but he was told to lose and that Sidious would save him.

Overrated: Kyle Katarn. He really isnt that good everyone. He fought some rouge Jedi. He killed a few retards and saved the Valley of the Jedi. Doesn't really show he's powerful.
Overrated: NJO Luke. He isnt a god. He cant control black holes easily. The're actually not black holes, the're dovin basals. Yes, he is powerful.
Overrated: Plo Koon. I think people just like his name and think he looks cool. He is pretty powerful, but he isn't that powerful.
Overrated: Sidious. He sucked. He lost to Mace. He defeated Yoda with help from clones and the fact that Yoda wasn't trying to kill him! Really, he wasn't. He was trying to distract him so that Obi-wan could kill Anakin. He failed because he knew he didn't give Obi-wan enough time. If Palpatine had arrived a little while later, Anakin would have died. No Vader. If Yoda had killed Sidious there would have been a civil war. Anakin dies, no problem. Remember, Yoda still served the Republic.
Underrated: RotJ Luke. Luke is actually very powerful by now. He blocked Sidious lightning for a second. He chocked two Gammoreans(just like Yoda did to those two Royal Guards. History repeats itself.). He DEFEATED Vader. Sure Vader was holding back a bit, but he still defeated him. Yes, he beat a crippled old man(I guess that doesnt really help me case.). That was actually his third encounter with Vader. ESB and Mimban.
Underrated: Kyp Durron. He's second to Luke in the NJO. He lost to that slayer, but he was also able to control dovin basals. He defeated Luke on the top of the Massasi Temple with only a few weeks experince.(Corran proved Kyp had some control when he was 'posessed' by Exar.)
Underrated: Joruus C'baoth. One of the most underrated characters ever. He controled the minds of 37000 people with ease. He could shoot massive beams of force lightning. It took Luke and Mara to kill him, even when he was distracted.
Underrated: Naga Sadow. He has just recently become underrated actually. He used to be considered really powerful, not he is considered very weak because we dont know a lot about him. He could though STARS for pete sake. He got his own tomb on Korriban.(He wasn't in there though.)
Underrated: Darth Bane. He looks like a retard, but out of thousands of Jedi and many Sith, he was the only one to survive. Sure the bomb wasnt aimed for the Sith, but it still killed many Sith. (I think that Lord Hoth was the strongest person on Rusaan at that time.)

that is complete crap becuase yoda wasn't servign the republic any more. omg that is crap. it smells like it. it sounds like it. yoda lost. there is a card game called star wars trivia and on one of the cards (# 252 i think) it says who LOST the battle in the senate room. It says YODA.( thanx to DAN the MAn for info i love you) sidiuos is very underated. he fooled all the jedi from under their noses. he controls the strings of darth vadar. darth vadar was his puppet. he lost to mace on purpose he could of easily killed him. he did force lightning. if he did force push instead boom mace would of flew out the window and died. he scarred himself on purpose. to look weak. omg omg omg omg omg that was the biggest crap i saw at in these forums EVA.

Darth Vader is underated all, because of his speed, but his skills with a lightsaber are great and his Force is strong even after losing all those midi-chlorians. Remeber he did take on Jedi way after the Republic fell...not everyone of them was killed during Order 66.

Overrated: NJO Luke, ROTJ Luke, Yoda, Mace Windu, Darth Revan, (By most, they put him up their with NJO Luke as Gods) Darth Maul.
Underrated: Malak,( He could probably last about as long as Mace did fighting Sidious) Dooku, (In the fight in ROTS, he wasn't fighting his best. You could tell from the difference in the way he fought from Episode 2 to Episode 3) Ben Kenobi, (ANH Kenobi. The only reason why he dided so lame was because he chose to let Darth Vader kill him easily). That's about all.

Underrated:
Jerec
He was a Dark Jedi...so? His title doesn't make him weaker. He mastered the darkside as well as any other Sith Lord and he was a Jedi Master for the Old Republic but didn't fight in the Clone War. Jerec is powerful but underrated.
