I went with my top 10 Jedi and Sith in seperate lists (still adds up to 20) Opinions are welcome:
Jedi:
1) Luke Skywalker
2) Jacen Solo
3) Kyp Durron
4) Yoda
5) HoT
6) TOR Jedi Consular (sorry, can't spell it)
7) Mace Windu
8) Anakin Skywalker
9) Galen Marek
10) Obi-Wan Kenobi
Sith:
1) Darth Sidious
2) Emperor Vitiate
3) Exar Kun
4) Darth Caedus
5) Darth Vader
6) Darth Malgus
7) Marka Ragnos
8) Darth Revan
9) Darth Krayt
10) Count Dooku
Well, I put Kyp Durron over Yoda mostly because of his strength in the Force being comparable (not equal) to Luke. Kyp's ability to manipulate artificial black holes (dovin basals) is a fantastic show of power that, iirc, only Luke has imitated. That's not a knock against Yoda, but more a result of the EU's philosophy of putting their characters on another level from the movie characters. TOR is the same way. Thanks for the Barsen'thor answer, btw. Exar Kun's place can be swtiched with Caedus, but I wouldn't put him any lower. What he does, both in life and as a spirit, puts him on the tier under Vitiate and Palpatine, imo.

Plagueis is definitely in the top 5 IMO. The author states him to be equal to (if not above) TPM Sidious in a fair fight.But how is Dooku #5?
While impressive, I don't see how that puts him in the top 5, unless you're saying either Kun, Vader, Caedus, or Vitiate should be bumped down, in favor of him. Vader, being 80% of ROTJ Sidious, should be up there, and Caedus was acknowledged by Lumya as being more powerful than his grandfather. Vitiate is a definite top 5, and Kun is a powerhouse as well.

Most likely? 100 percent
100%? Um, no, sorry. Exar Kun was the greatest Force user of his era. He achieved unparalleled prowess in lightsaber combat (quoted from Gnost-Dural) . His force blasts could crumble stone walls and kill Sithspawn in 1 shot. He walked into the Republic Senate and froze all those in attendance while dueling and defeating his former master, the Jedi Battlemaster Vodo-Siask Baas. Near the end of the Sith Wars, he performed a ritual that absorbed the life energy from almost the entire Massassi race, allowing him to leave his body and transcend into a Sith spirit. As a spirit, Kun was able to put Luke into a coma and almost separate his spirit from his body. I apologize if this got a little wordy.
