Darth Plagueis vs. Valkorion

Provide evidence of this growth in power.

Palpatine felt that Darth Plagueis could defeat any Jedi.

While he accepted that he and Plagueis were more than equal to the most powerful of the Jedi Order, he understood that they were no match for their combined strength—the Sith imperative notwithstanding.

Taken from [B]Star Wars: Darth Plagueis [/B]

Doesn't matter if he did(although logically he would), he's still canonically better, and Yoda was his near-equal.
Also, Palpatine could believe what he wants, he clearly isn't being the most objective.

More like Outlander>Valkorion>Sheev>Yoda. $50 says the outlander doesn't defeat Valkorion cleanly. It will be some PIS.

"Oh, him. He goes on to become the greatest Dark Lord the Sith have ever known..."

Yeah, Palpatine thinks of himself in... high regard.

If Darth Plagueis > Yoda and touted as the most powerful Sith ever in the back-cover of the novel then Darth Plagueis > Palpatine as well.

Therefore;

Darth Plagueis > Palpatine > Yoda

The back of the novel might've only been referring to Plagueis up to his time. Which includes Valkoriate, but not Palpatine who improved/surpassed his master later.

The statement contains the word "ever," not "history" or "up to his time." Palpatine was just as strong as he was during Episode III during the last days of Darth Plagueis. He is covered. 👆

lmfao

I'm concerned. I think Legend has a brain tumour.

This reminds me of the "They are called impersonators, not imposters."

Anyway to put this to be before it gets out of hand:

Taken from The Dark Side Sourcebook

When the Sith finally emerged from a thousand years of watching and waiting, they numbered - in accordance with the tradition set down by Darth Bane - only two. The most powerful of these was Darth Sidious, an ice-cold, diabolically calculating genius equipped with the strength of the dark side of the Force, as well as an enormous wealth of Sith artifacts, equipment, and knowledge.

Is no one going to bring up the fact the Blurb is clearly up to Pre-TPM only, as it is still questioning what Plagueis' fate is? mmm

Good point. ✅

No, he was using the past perfect tense. Plagueis was the most powerful sith who had ever lived.

Sidious > Plagueis > Vitiate/all previous sith. 👆

I do enjoy people reaching in regards to questionable in universe quotes 👆

Sidious kills your precious Valkorion, deal with it. 👆
