Originally posted by cs_zoltanThat's irrelevant when there are characters comparable enough to Sidious to be in contention for that title. This accolade is, even in-universe, entirely speculatory and is by no means solid proof that Sidious is more powerful than everybody else before him. But of course the Sheevites love to ignore stuff like that.
A "perhaps" that 99.99% of the named characters can't even begin to claim for themselves.
