I wouldn't infer Plagueis to be better than Krayt. He was very fast, but every time he faced someone who could keep up with his speed, he turned to the force to win.
He was skilled sabers, but he didn't like sabers in the same way most top duelists do, so he didn't push himself to the limits, IMO.
Lulz. Especially at, "He didn't like lightsabers, so he probably wasn't that great." I remember how much Sidious loved lightsabers though, so he might have a point.
How's it backwards? Someone who cares more about one area will normally try harder. He preferred the force, so he's more a force type.
Plus it does tie in to his actual battle results- again, when faced with a hard duel, he turned to his most reliable area, that is his force powers, to win.
Sids cackled wildly while using sabers, he really seemed to enjoy his duels
Who gives a shit what he prefers or what type randominternetguy449 assigns him? That doesn't inherently preclude him from being better than Krayt.
He outdueled Venamis without the Force, despite Venamis knowing how he duels quite literally inside and out. I don't think you can get much less reliant on offensive Force use than that. Give me a break, Q99. I know you like Krayt but this is excessive.

That and because Sidious's other strengths make him exceptional even for a sith lord.
Just because I say something, I can just be referring to it as a rule of thumb, not an absolute, y'know (Aaand I'm pretty sure I've said that before ^^)
An example of what I mean is, say, assume you have Maul and Dooku, both 'only' apprentice lords, working together they could likely beat Revan, or Exar Kun, or yadda yadda. The list of who they couldn't beat is pretty short. It's not true all the time, but it's often the case.
What the hell are you talking about? What is an "apprentice" Lord. You're either a Darth or you aren't. And the list of who they couldn't beat isn't nearly as short as you seem to think it is. You don't need to be Sidious to take on Maul and Dooku at the same time.
... see, in the Rule of Two (and other sith that worked in a similar format), always two there are. The master, and the apprentice.
... why am I having to explain how the Sith master/apprentice system works to you? Why are you incredulous about Maul and Dooku being apprentices? A Rule of Two sith only stops being an apprentice when their master dies.
You might not need Sidious but... you think there's a long list?
