Both rounds?

wait, what were Palpatine's feats during this time?

Which time? There are two runs.

17 yo Sheev goes down against 10 yo Vitiate. He Force-severed Dramath, I have no doubt he could do the same to Palps here.
Post-Medriass Vitiate beats 52 BBY Sidious pretty solidly. He was primarily a scholar, but there's no reason to assume he has no offensive abilities, and the power gap is far too large to assume Sidious could survive long

Dramath being severed is from an in-universe source. I'd hardly say it's valid. And Palpatine's Force connection cannot even be felt by the most powerful Sith and Jedi ever up to that point, so that could be of some help. Aside from that, what prevents Palpatine from crushing his skull or tearing him apart limb from limb?

Based on what is the power gap between post-Nathema Vitiate and 52bby Sidious so large?

I want more opinions. These iterations of the characters are not discussed much.

I doubt the gap between pre-Nathema and post-Nathema Vitiate is that large either.

How so? Eating a planet and thousands of Sith should at least provide a substantial increase in power, even if part of the energy went into extending his life and furthering his potential.

up

4 or 5.

You could honestly get him to clear even as a 17-year-old depending on how you scale it.
