Yeah, it seemed like you were arguing both things, lol.

But my point stands:

Yes, he has. Being egomaniac, overconfident, self-centered, and cryptic as most Sith Lords in history have been... Thinking he is more powerful really doesn't work. Dooku thought he was more powerful than Anakin. Sidious thought he was more powerful than Yoda. The list is long...

There's nothing solid that suggests Darth Malak was more powerful than Darth Revan.

dooku was more powerful till anakin went "in teh zone."

sidious was actually more powerful than yoda lol

Edit: malak was probably prty close to, if not already better than, darth revan when he betrayed him. factor in the extra 3 or 4 years malak has... you get the picture

No, he wasn't. As of ROTS, Anakin had become more powerful than Dooku. Even prior, in some TCW episodes, Dooku was extremely hard pressed against Anakin.

And no he wasn't. ROTS Yoda = ROTS Sidious.

He might've been close, but there's really nothing to suggest he was superior at that point. If anything, it's the opposite, seeing as he stroke from afar rather than facing him personally. His self-opinion is hardly compelling proof.

there was a source that indicate "yoda could not hope to defeat the most powerful sith lord the galaxy had ever known" or something like that. he would have lost had he not fled

also sidious, THE dark lord of the sith, killed his master in his sleep, upon achieving the skill and ability to do so.

Edit: he was simply trying to kill 2 birds with one stone, aka the jedi and revan.

anyways, i still think darth malak would beat darth revan, especially because darth revan has no feats, while malak does.

but he loses at 6 or 7, due to the fact that both of these fighters are probably better swordmasters, but malak has better force abilities than kolar, so malak has a somewhat decent chance of beating him

Bro, edit button. Stop posting so much in a row.

The G-canon ROTS script claims Yoda actually disarmed Sidious, and describes their Force clash with these words: "it looked as if the Sith Lord was doomed". Sidious wasn't superior to Yoda as of ROTS.

I'm not saying he was more powerful than the Emperor, I'm merely pointing out that we see on-screen is more relevant than any quote or statement, and what we see on-screen was pretty much a stalemate.

And yes, Sidious killed Plagueis in his sleep, but we can't really be sure if he was already more powerful than him at that point.

i believe the author states that plagueis MAY have been able to beat palpatine when he killed him in his sleep. that means that they were about equal at that time probably

I would like to take this opportunity to voice my support for Darth Malak, who was a serviceable Big Bad.

If Tarkin had the dark side and pulled a Roger Ebert, he'd be Darth Malak.

darth malak >>>>>revan>>>>>>>sidious and luke 🙂

Except Malak was noted to be kinda thick iirc.

What do you think about him in terms of the thread?

Yeah and some characters think Daala was a tactical genius. Malak was no Palpatine, but he wasn't a complete moron either.

And personally, I've always put Malak a little behind Dooku in the grand scheme of things.

do you think he gets to 6/7?

I'm sure he was a decidedly powerful Sith and skilled warrior, as you say, perhaps around Dooku level. He's got ****all to show for it though and it would be impossible to justify in any meaningful way.

Sure.

And I should clarify that when I say Malak is on or around Dooku's level, I do mean the Malak we saw at the end of the game, imbued with the power of the Star Forge.

how far do u think he goes in this gauntlet?

Agreed.
