Good contest. I believe that Hero of Tython (HoT) is the superior warrior here.
Force:
HoT is a champion of light; more powerful then Revan; possibly a peer of Luke.
Sabers:
HoT is an extremely accomplished swordsman with history of not just blitzing skilled opponents but outdueling some of the Sith finest.
Surprisingly, Plagueis despises lightsaber combat and regards it as a highly tedious affair. Therefore, Plagueis is at psychological disadvantage vis-à-vis HoT in this respect.
All out:
HoT is perfectly well-rounded with no known notable weaknesses. Plagueis might challenge HoT in the Force contest but lacks the aptitude for brilliance in warriorship.

Because the Sith are innately self-destructive. The majority of the most powerful adepts in the mythos are Sith imo.Its also easy to overrate them because they use the Force in destructive ways that make them look more impressive.
Sith also often become victims of their own philosophy that encourages backstabbing.

I assume you're joking.
The Hero defeated Emperor Tenebrae, a guy whose Force powers make Plagueis look like a gnat in comparison
In a lightsabre duel in particular Plagueis would be slaughtered as his dueling skills are seriously lacking while the Hero is one of the finest lightsabre duelists ever.
The Hero of Tython wins this hands down.
Vitiate had a nexus to amp his power, take it away from him and he's shit with inferior feats to Plagueis.
Plagueis is faster, has better TK feats, and is physiologically, physically, and much better in near every regard. HoT never fought someone who matched the speed of a guy who could dodge blaster bolts, move faster than a droid with advanced photo receptors, and described as a bolt of lightning.
Plagueis can take him with mid difficulty, and that's assuming he doesn't TK him or drive his fist straight through HoT's ribcage

Without a nexus Vitiate pwned 4 of the strongest and most powerful Jedi of the era at the same time. Easily. Without a nexus Vitiate mindraped his Sith Lord father at age 10. Vitiate was made the youngest Sith Lord in galactic history by Marka Ragnos himself.
The idea that Vitiate is shit without a nexus is retarded. Vitiate had people who could wipe out entire fleets as his personal b*tches. He's more powerful than Exar Kun, Revan, Naga Sadow, Marka Ragnos, Tulak Hord or any Sith before him barring the possible exception of Nihilus.

The HoT is hardly slow, she's blitzed Sith Warriors in cutscenes and defeated some of the premier swordsman of her era.
I highly doubt Plagueis can TK the Hero given that Vitiate couldn't, and Vitiate collapsed the Dark Temple after his defeat.
