Loki is one tough badass, but he has just being that...one tough punching bag.

Yeah.
Yeah he really could.

Damn So obvious yet I never even thought of that. Won't matter how durable Loki is if Sidious can use his own Scepter on him. A scepter plus Lightsaber dual wielding Sidious..

Put that down to artistic crappery. Definitely the worst moment in ROTS.
They made the Sidious vs Jedi Masters kill much better in The Clone Wars. Its blurred and only for a few seconds, but gave the impression of speed.
Okay, I rewatched Clone Wars. Sidious definitely seems to have the better offensive feats, but Loki survived the Bifrost explosion, not to mention the Dark World feats, so I am not sure whether Sidious could actually put him down for the count. However his versatility and abilities are certainly much better proven in direct combat so I change my vote to him for now.
Oh definitely. Based on screenfeats, Loki is one of the most durable characters shown in the MCU. This is why I am still not convinced that a saber could just cut through him. Maintained pressure or repeated blows, sure. But not quick, clean strikes.
However, Sidious really does get a MASSIVE upgrade feats wise, in the Clone Wars. Not only in physical stats (being displayed as much faster, skilled, agile etc. as well as having the strength to easily perform one armed blocks against guys like Savage and Maul), but he has niftier force feats too, like choking and lifting 2 people at once while not being anywhere near them, or even seeing them. So I still see his level of force tk still being a problem for Loki to deal with, even if it doesn't do any lasting damage. And if he tk disarms Loki and attacks him with his own spear, Loki is ****ed.
The animated series, for me, did what RotS failied to do. Actually make Sidious look like the powerful Sith Lord he is supposed to be.
Loki, on the other hand, is one of the many characters to have their abilities MASSIVELY watered down in the movies. I mean all the heavy hitters got the short end, but he really got robbed. Went from the most powerful sorcerer in Asgard to a guy who can cast illusions, astral project, and has one feat of low level tk. If they were going to take so much of his magic away, they should have given him more consistent showings using his Frost Giant powers. Frost giants have been shown creating blades, projectiles etc. strong enough to harm Asgardians with their ice, and Loki has had large chunk of Thor, Thor 2, the Avengers, and the time between Thor and the Avengers to develop these powers. But he only ever shows basic ice powers while in possession of the Cask of Ancient Winters, never again before or after that. It's lame as shit. They should expand his powerset for future appearances.
