Valkorion. Valkorion is what Sidious aspired to become.

This is true; we Sheevites lose our individuality when we are subsumed into His Imperial Majesty's ego, becoming extensions of his will. However, this is good, as being in contact with Sheev's very thoughts grants us unparalleled wisdom and debating prowess.

I mean, not really, tbh.
Even if we assume that Vitiate is more powerful in the Force, the idea that his level of superiority negates Sidious' vast superiority as a combatant is laughable. Sidious on the whole is pretty inarguably superior to Vitiate or Valkorion as of ROTS.

I've recently shifted a lot in how I look at quotes and stuff, viewing most quotes as facts now, so far it makes more sense than my feats primary approach that I used to have. Anyway, I'm firmly in the Sidious>Valkoriate camp at this point, though I still think Vitiate is very near to Sidious in Force strength and ability, Sidious just outclasses him in everything else.
I wouldn't say I'm defecting, but you won't be seeing me argue Vitiate>Sidious anymore.
