So if Ankain is above Dooku, that means he's on par with Mace, Yoda, and Sidious?
It's debatable, but he could be above Dooku and still behind Mace, Yoda and Sidious, right? There's no reason why he couldn't be in between Dooku and those other 3.
And as far as how Dooku should have died... Mace would have been alright, but only if Mace had won. 😎
But Anakin beating him is okay, too, it should have been closer, though, and longer, and Kenobi should never have been involved. Dooku fighting both at once and fending them off and then losing to one alone is stupid, and so is Dooku pwning Kenobi like he did. IMO Anakin and Dooku should have fought and while they were fighting maybe Kenobi could fight Grievous and/pr a bunch of magnaguards. When Dooku dies, Grievous flees, out the window, back into the ship, into the escape pod... yeah, that would have been better.
