Yoda and Sidious are indeed equals or near equals as of RotS.

It remains: Sidious > Vitiate.
Its not in-universe, its an out-of-universe Encyclopedia that covers all Canon material.
You don't understand how canon works. You've listed in universe source material and are desperately attempting to argue that it's all encompassing. That's not how this works. I don't have to substantiate a single thing because you're already 100% wrong. If you want to continue arguing this to the death, be my guest, but it doesn't change the fact that you're wrong.
Originally posted by The MerchantWell it depends on your perspective really. Sure this statement is made with no regard to the Sith Emperor, but at the same time is any Legends material really in a position to contradict Canon? I just thought it was an interesting statement to consider.
I'll be honest using Ultimate SW should only apply to the new canon. At least we know Palpatine is stronger than Bane 😎
