That Ambria scaling where Thon spent years-decades cleaning it up, yeah.
He's planetary... from a certain point of view.
I'm not opposed to Kun winning, and had him over Maul for a long time, but let's see if his old arguments stand up to scrutiny; I'll support Maul. The only rules of debate are that you are not allowed to lie, use double standards or replace arguments with ad hominem. Should be easy for most people.

I don't deny their immense power and proficiency in sorcery, and like with Haazen's protective gauntlet and Kun's blasts they have some great weapons. They also have some great warriors among their ranks like Kun, Ulic, Ragnos, Tulak etc.
I just give everyone a fair shake before declaring a winner. I would say I have Kun in that upper-echelon area of Sith, but in the 2nd tier so to speak. There's a wide berth between the Plagueis/Sidious types who are so powerful they can speedblitz even the most powerful Sith (which is an even bigger power disparity than ragdolling), then you have your Kuns, Krayts, Caedus', Sidious' apprentices, even Bane and Zannah could make their way into this category, but as you can see, it is quite a range.
I would say the ancients outside of Kun and perhaps Ulic are below the threshold I gave above. More comparable to Malgus and the SWTOR protags perhaps.
