sids takes this because i dont know anything about lord hoth
Because YOU don't know anything about Lord Hoth, Sidious would win? Why does it matter what YOU know at all? What implication does that have on this fight?
If you don't know, learn it; ignorance is not an excuse.
but he did pwn 3 jedi in that many seconds. Dont give me they were caught by surprise. They were ready to attack when sidious launched himself. I think he underestimated Mace so he got pwned but thats me. Sids is also a little weaker then yoda as is Hoth so Sidious is a good fighter. And Glentract i meant give reasons why Hoth will win this fight.

Yet Hoth led the Republic against countless Sith Lords, all whom outclass Palpatine in sheer calibre and power.
While Sidious has been more of a leader and sneak, he has shown great fighting ability aswell. he faired pretty well against windu (just after he had already killed 3 jedi masters quite effortlessly) and basically defeated yoda while showing great strength in the force and his own variant of ataru which could rival yoda's. To me, during the time of ROTS the best 4 were in order of best to worse: Mace windu, sidious, yoda and dooku. I can't see Hoth being as good as any of these master force users. He does have war experience (the battle of Ruusan) and looks pretty powerful and he was an echani but he just seems like more of a jedi leader than warrior.

That last sentence was pathetic, he was a warrior, he fought against the Sith on the front lines, not back in some command post. Sidious didn't beat Yoda, he just got lucky. Oh, and Hoth could have made short work of those three masters anyway.
Yeah but how do you know that. that was just a guess whereas what i have said is from weighing out the facts about both of them and then using accurate speculation to find an outcome. Sidious did beat Yoda. yoda ended up losing his sabre and had to flee. During the duel Yoda had been hit with lightning, caused a lightning explosing which resulted in him falling from a pretty high area and lost his lightsaber. Sidious had only been force pushed and had a bit of lightning redirected back towards him. Oh and he got pushed back like 1 metre due to the lightning explosion. Yoda totally lost.
For Info on Lord Hoth, this is the same thing I have posted many times. Take them as arguments for Lord Hoth.
Lord Hoth was a famous Jedi Master who led the Army of Light against Lord Kaan's Brotherhood of Darkness during the New Sith Wars, until a final confrontation with the forces of darkness at the Battle of Ruusan.
It is likely that his name is connected with that of the planet Hoth, but it is not known if the planet is named for him or the other way around. The Jedi Master did fight a furious battle with Kaan on the planet, but the details of this encounter are unknown.
Regardless, Hoth was one of the foremost Jedi of his era. He clashed continually with his contemporary Lord Farfalla, whose foppish nature was a directly opposed to Hoth’s pragmatism.
Unlike the charismatic Farfalla, Hoth had little time for diplomacy, nor the delicate etiquette his rank sometimes required. Where he did excel was warfare—he was a superb tactician and, even in his advanced age, a warrior without peer.
Naturally, with war against the Sith, it was Hoth who was chosen to led the forces of the Jedi and the Republic. In his youth, Hoth believed he had the power to end the Sith threat singlehandedly, but the war ground on for decades with no end in sight.
The conflict hardened Hoth against the galaxy, and, by the time of the final battle of Ruusan, the once idealistic youth had become a bitter, cynical and haggard veteran. His closest friend and main advisor was fellow veteran Pernicar, while the Jedi that served under him included notables such as General Kiel Charny
Lord Hoth perished when Lord Kaan detonated the thought bomb.
After his death, Hoth's former Padawan, Johun Othone, petitioned the Republic to construct a memorial to the Army of Light on the planet of Ruusan.
