Plo Koon is from what I see a very powerful jedi. He might take my spot at being even a little better than obi wan and being like the fourth or fith on the council. But when your talking about the most powerful sith posibly of all time. The only people that would stand a chance would be yoda and mace. Enough said Sidous wins. But theres bound to be some Plo koon lover LOL.

The whole "Sidious is possibly the most powerful Sith of all time" always drives me nuts. Sure he had impressive Force Lightning (due to incredible modern day digital technology) wow...big deal.
Sidious is NOT the most powerful Sith of all time. The title is (as of EU now) between Marka Ragnos and Exar Kun. Sidious isn't fit to blow either of those two great Sith lords.
BTW, Plo Koon is closer to being Obi's peer than his superior, since his main expertise is in piloting ships. And Darth Rage is SS myth, before some Plo fan goes apeshit on me. But anyways, he loses. Sidious may be a ***** of a Sith lord, but he can pwn most any PT Jedi.
Yes, but somehow, somewhere, in a galaxy all too recent and not so far, far away, every fanboy and movie lover in existance save a few rational minds accepted the lie that Sidious is the best Sith of all time, and that Yoda and Mace are the best Jedi of all time. Which would be a scary accessment when you consider people argue that both Yoda and Mace couldn't defeat Sidious.... But Vader can.

How can you say on an accurate basis that sidious isnt the best? Have marka ragnos and sidious ever fought? Sidious definately appears to be the greatest threat the galaxy has ever known being that he was the one that finnaly defeated the republic. Also in the ROTS novelization yoda says palpatine is a new breed of sith that is much more prepared and POWERFUL than the old sith.
Janus. Sidious is by no means the most powerful Dark Lord of The Sith. People need to understand the difference between great and powerful. Sidious was powerful, but yes, I agree. He was not the MOST powerful. But he was one of - if not THE - greatest. And this is not movie favoritism. By far, we see more game favoritism than any. Sidious took over the galaxy.
His regime was the first of it's kind - and the most powerful empire in the entire galactic history. Sidious manipulated all of the Jedi Order, by himself. There were times when his plans failed and when he failed to forsee particular events. He was not infallible. But he was very great, overall.
He was brilliant - more so in many ways than Revan and the other Sith Lords. Fishy and Himo have implied that Sidious was weak because he didn't conquer the Republic through sheer force. And that is where Revan and his like failed. Because that is what they tried to do. To tackle through sheer force.
People don't like Sidious because despite all they say, he DID accomplish what no one else ever did and what no one else most likely never WILL.
Please remember that.
Well, there is a distinction between his accomplishments and his actual physical power.
But Darh Somebody, as in reference to your accusations of game bias, I sincerely hope you don't include me and Fishy in that group, because that would be untrue and unjust an accusation. Now, if you had gone through the majority of all the threads and posts made by us since the conception of this subforum (Which was after I came here, mind you) and you had proof and whatnot of us being horribly and unreasonably biased towards the game, I might etertain your accusation. But for right now, I'm going to assume you're talking about newer members who have equated Revan with god, whether due to actual admiration or perhaps a hatred of the usual movie bias which is very apparent throughout this EU subforum.
That was my, as Wanderer would say, verbose reply to your accusations.
