Lightning that caused no discernible strain or as of AOTC has only debilitated Kenobi/Anakin vs. Lightning that kills 2 Jedi on contact/drops Barsen/Hero/Nox/Wrath? No, they aren't equal feats imo. Dooku's lightning is generally inferior to Malgus's overall.
Malgus could easily replicate any showing of ragdolling Kenobi. He's been taken out by individuals who are less powerful than he is (Savage/Maul/Ventress). And Dooku has been knocked around/choked by even Savage/Kenobi himself, his showings of force barrier/aura aren't on par with Malgus's either. Malgus utilizes his force abilities much more violently than Dooku, and exceeds him in telekinesis/lightning not to mention Maelstrom which Dooku isn't even prepared to deal with at all.
None of those individuals are as powerful in the force as Barsen/Wrath/Nox/ or Hero barring Anakin. Being a skilled swordsmen has nothing to do with their showings in the force, Bulq is quite abysmal in terms of applications of force showings in general

2 fodder Jedi. Lightning can drop any character, if failed to block. Even prime Luke was pinned to a wall by lightning of a fodder Sith, same Luke that tanked Sidious' lightning long before his prime and Abeloth's lightning right into the chest.
Dooku's lightning instantly knocked out AotC Anakin, that's impressive enough.
Kenobi also survived Son's lightning. Malestorm is just a variation of TK, nothing new for Dooku. Regardless, Maul and Opress are more powerful than Malgus, imho.
Barring Anakin, which Dooku happened to Force handle on more than one occasion...

I don't doubt malgus is powerful however he doesn't rank amongst the best of all time while dooku does. It doesn't matter as dooku being in the movies is more featured than malgus who was though up just like vitiate and expansion and thus coming to life. Being that dooku is more calm and collected than malgus he does t just show destruction where ever he goes unlike malgus who uses his power to destroy. However dooku can still unleash some pretty cool stuff. His TK is most likely above malgus and the use of lightning in this battle is negleable as both can be countered by their light sabers or by dookus tutaminis, however I would say dooku is more powerful however not by a large amount as he has way more experience.

Dooku doesn't exactly rank among the first five people you listed.

I know that's why I didn't put him but he's regarded closely isn't he? He isn't like distant. In terms of tiers he is a tier below them. So he isn't a slouch he can be compared, he also has great showimgs as well.
Yeah. Plagueis, Kun, Krayt, Vader, Revan all come to mind too.
No. Dooku isn't close to someone like Sidious.
Not that he has to be in order to be recognized as being among the best of all time. Dooku is among the best ever, but there are many force-users better than him. He's definitely my top 20.

I've never been really high up with kun. Can someone give me some information on his abilities that isn't biased. Plagues I can see him being above dooku just not as one of the most powerful force weilders ever, I don't believe Krayt to either, vader is in the same tier as Dooku just higher in that tier. You are naive thinking malgus is with the ones listed. Malgus is powerful but not on their level powerful IMO.
Malgus' Force abilities will be the least of Dooku's worries, what Dooku is going to struggle with is the sheer force of his strong style, that Dooku's Makashi isn't well suited to dealing with.

That won't be a big issue you all think it is. Dooku has counter measures and defeated sora bull who is a master of juyo/vaapad, anakin Skywalker djem so multiple times, Quinn Lin vos Ataru possibly, held yoda off, Ataru specialist, said to be the dead rival of mace windu, vaapad specialist, and an angry anakin, able to hold off his assault, Dark side Djem so specialist.
So with that he can definitely handle malgus brute force. Also brute force won't win the day agaisn't dooku.
Dooku had no problem with Anakin and he is more skilled and just as physically strong as Malgus.
