They have equivalent accolades. Why else would Malak be far superior to Plo? 🙂

I see both Darth Maul and Savage Opress there. It's difficult to determine how the events unfolded from these scans. They make it clear that the brothers defeated the Jedi, but to me - Darth Maul appears to be doing most work.

Darth Malak is counted among the "very best" of Sith. An opponent lesser then Revan could not defeat him.
It's not just the hype factor; Darth Malak became a master of the Dark Side and his powers and skills are more then enough for opponents like Savage Opress. Its a shame that we don't have novels written for Darth Malak and neither he have been depicted in big-budget mediums.

Maul never fought Koon.
Let's not forget Savage has also battered another Council Member in Adi Gallia, and also Ventress who is easily a match for most Council Members.

Confrontations between Revan and Darth Malak have always been described as being fierce, vicious and desperate irrespective of the setting and circumstances involved.
Revelations for confrontation on the Star Forge:
Revan then confronted Darth Malak himself in a fierce duel, but Revan prevailed and finally defeated Darth Malak.
From Star Wars: The Old Republic: Encyclopedia
--
It is a period of uncertainty across the galaxy. After a long and vicious battle in the deepest area of the Star Forge, Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Revan succeeds in destroying his ex-apprentice Darth Malak. After recovering from the duel, Revan seeks out the secret dark outposts...
From Chronicles of the Old Republic
--
"...that [Star Forge] battle would have been a brutal, hard fought affair spread over multiple pages." (Drew Karpyshyn)
--
Earlier battles were also hard fought and intense. Stopping Darth Malak was an extremely difficult task.
A number of quotes depict the Jedi of the KotOR era as being in their prime. I'll direct you now to a number of quotes from the Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide. To avoid the annoyance of typing out the quotes and making my post an absolute eyesore to read, I've taken the following scans from DarthAnt66's blog at the following link - http://comicvine.gamespot.com/profile/darthant66/blog/kotor-era-is-the-prime-of-the-jedi/95277/

Plo Koon could be at 200th position and still be counted among the strongest Jedi.Not seeing your point. The phrasing in Malak's quote was that he was among the "most powerful" Sith, the phrasing in Koon's was "one of the most powerful Jedi ever". There's no difference in impressiveness.Darth Malak is counted among the "very best" of Sith.
An opponent lesser then Revan could not defeat him.According to you.
It's not just the hype factor; Darth Malak became a master of the Dark Side and his powers and skills are more then enough for opponents like Savage Opress. Its a shame that we don't have novels written for Darth Malak and neither he have been depicted in big-budget mediums.Plenty of people have been called "masters" of the Force, Savage included. I'm still not seeing your point.

Well, Plo Koon sucks in canon then. Not impressed.

Plo Koon, being a Jedi, wouldn't be tested like an Emperor would be.
