Kol have decent performance in battlefield but more is needed to evaluate him.
We also know he knows Shatterpoint offensively (as a ghost, he showed Cade how to turn a traspesteel cube into a shrapnel bomb).
In the brief combat we saw, he kicked Nihl in the face, sliced some sith up, blocked lightning (looks actually to be reflecting it back at the user), and showed very good footing on a pile of corpses he made.
So far, Darach looks more impressive then many Jedi.
Yes, but of all the Grand Masters we know, Zym is the only one I'd give him an edge over. Most GMs blow Darach out of the water.

I wouldn't go that far. I'd say Kol does, taking into account the implications of his position and what we've seen him demonstrate, but Darach himself was extremely impressive in what little we've seen of him. I'd put him on par with most GMs that we know of to be honest. You've also got to remember that GM isn't even neccessarily a position of power; in terms of general combat prowess, I'd argue Battlemaster (which is what Darach was) is practically as distinguished a position.

Ok, aside from Zym, which GMs have not been badass?
Hm, actually, I thought of a second one, Kenth Hamner.
But aside from those: Luke, Yoda, Fae Coven (who had TK of at *least* Yoda's level), Saba Sebantyne, Satele Shan, Nomi Sunrider.
Grand Master isn't necessarily a position of personal power, but it very very often is, and the GM does normally stand noticeably above the battlemaster and is usually the strongest Jedi of their time.
Oh, one other factor: Nat Skywalker, Kol's brother, even rusty was a pretty powerful master we see perform well in combat several times in the series, and part of the reason he quit the order was because he felt he couldn't live up to Kol. So yea, Kol was strong enough to give Nat an inferiority complex, even though Nat was the older and more experienced.

Who ever said Zym was weak, also?
He died to a mandalorian.
