I guess the lesson here is that if you don't actually understand the words that Agent Smith is using in Matrix Revolutions then don't try and use them in an argument.

E=MC2 and since your massless saber blade has a big "0" where the M is that means that E will also equal "0" because whenever you multiply something by "0" it becomes "0". The only thing that matters in a saber fight is leverage and I'm all about leverage because I'm a f*cking Makashi user.
Anakin: I hate you!
Hilarious. 😆
Dark Randezvous clearly states that Count Dooku and Mace Windu were equals on even terms, but that Dooku was his superior while emersed in the Dark Side, in Shatterpoint Mace Windu believes that he could only have defeated Count Dooku by surprise, although this might have somtheing to do with Jango Fett being there.
I think putting Dooku in his prime condition gives him the edge in this.
Dooku had a slight edge over Yoda in their second duel but in both their duels it ultimately ended in a stalemate, possibly because Yoda didn't want Dooku dead but captured, whereas Windu defeated Palpatine although not without help.
Yoda clearly had an edge on Sidious in their duel in the Senate, and eventually in the duel Palpatine abandoned his saber. In the end Windu and Dooku are at even playing fields, but I stress that Dooku being in his physical prime might give him the edge, although it is questionable whether the deformed Palpatine was able to move like he did when he wasn't deformed against Windu, this could go either way, but I say Dooku barely if he's in his prime and retains all of his knowledge and skill.
