Revan. He is far more powerful in the force than Dooku. Dooku is good with a blade, but Revan has killed so many jedi, he would bring a lot of experience. It would not be a stomp for Revan, but Revan would win.

While I'd personally place Revan on a power spectrum somewhere between Dooku and Yoda, Dooku has consistently demonstrated tremendous power in the Force and prodigious skill as a duelist.

Revan's best feats are his lightning absorption. Other than that though, I don't see anything that eclipses Dooku's skills with a lightsaber, or something that would let him beat Dooku with the Force.
Can you believe that today I saw a dude saying that Revan was the 2nd strongest Force User in history behind Luke? Lol, what a joke.
I have to agree with The Tempest here. Dooku's raw swordsmanship should give him the solid edge here. It's not like Revan is so above him in the force he is going to give him the ragdoll treatment.
Essentially, yes.
My nigh-infallible gut and wisdom tells me Revan was clearly meant to be a prodigy whose abilities surpass even those of the formidable Count and his few showings do hint at a superior ability, but Dooku's feats are extremely impressive.

Yes, Drew obviously wanted him to be incredible with how far he surpassed Meetra and by being able to fight Vitiate, but in the end thats just empty power-scaling. Revan has little in the way of impressive feats.
^Indeed. Dooku is also referred to by Yoda as the finest pupil he'd ever seen in the order. An impressive showing considering the prodigies that passed through the halls of the temple during Yoda's time as Grand Master.
Perhaps a decade ago. But with materials like the original Clone Wars, TFU, DE, NJO Luke and KOTOR II it's not that impressive
Casually deflecting lightning powerful enough to reduce to ash a woman who, in turn, was powerful enough to curbstomp the Exile and Scourge simultaneously is, in any context, an extremely impressive combat feat.
It's impressive but it doesn't even make the top 10 in terms of impressive force feats. Not when we have people destroying armies with a gesture, moving capital ships, and draining entire planets with a whisper.
I didn't know you were the sole arbiter of "top 10 force feats". At any rate, it's vastly more impressive than anything Dooku has shown with the force.
