That's like when you and Carthage were accusing me of holding Bane above Yoda on here when I've had Yoda>Bane for the entirety of my time on KMC.
Don't pretend I hold opinions that I don't actually hold, especially when I'm not even part of the conversation you're giving me shit in.
Once again, DMB angrily jumps to conclusions based on his preconceived notions rather than what was actually said. I didn't say you (still) thought Bane was the most powerful Sith if all time; I said you've said the same thing as Ant about the quote on the back cover of DoE. And, for the record, it was for the same argument regarding the Plagueis novelization, not Bane's supremacy. If you haven't made that argument in months, it's because you haven't made any arguments here in months, so go back to your corner and keep your angst in your fanfiction.
As for the quote itself, Xtasy, I'm not denying it's existence; I'm denying it's contents. Like he does with most favorable quotes he gets his hands on, Ant stretches it to proportions that the actual material doesn't imply. The fact that Bane is the dark side's most powerful master doesn't mean that it hasn't had more powerful masters before. 👆
Spoiler:
btw the Yoda thing is completely true.

The definition of power is not universal...

No, I don't think his realized power (which I really mean when I say "raw power"😉 surpasses that of post-RotS Sidious. We have enough in and out of universe sources suggesting that he matches or surpasses Yoda in this regard, which seems congruent with his fight with Dooku, but he hasn't done anything to match tearing the surfaces off of worlds.
Of course, he may have reached Yoda's tier in raw power but not necessarily in control or mastery.
