An aimless Ventress hesitantly joins forces with Maul upon discovery that he intends to (literally) axe her ex-employer, putting aside differences with Savage. The trio invade Serenno and arrive at Dooku's majestic palace to remove the Count's crown jewels.
The fight takes place outside and each fighter is armed with his or her standard weapons and will seek victory by any means necessary.
Consider the drastically altered environment. The battle [I should have clarified] will occur outside the palace, allowing each fighter considerable room to maneuver as well as the presence of projectiles (the massive obelisks that bracket the central walkway) to bring to bear.
Edit: Nvm, I did clarify

(1) Savage is possessed of such fortitude and physicality that he cannot be ignored, safely dispatched, or even endured for any length of time when
(2) Ventress serves as a fairly wily and competent distraction in an interim, which there shouldn't ever be because
(3) Maul is at at least as (a) able a duelist as Ventress (b) strong in the Force as Savage and (c) competent at handling Force-lightning as either of them. I make the relatively safe assumption that he can deflect it, but a wayward gout probably wouldn't put him down for long anyway; as proven by Anakin - in TWC with Dooku and TFU with Starkiller - a cyborg doesn't take necessarily catastrophic damage from lightning, and Maul's physiology is buffered by severe enough conditioning that he should be able to brush it off. Anyway if Ventress can do it once he probably can too.
In conclusion: a relentless onslaught from Savage, Maul, and Ventress would [rapidly] deplete the Count's strength and reserves of Force-energy (ala Stover's Sith, so mostly Savage) until he is simply battered into exhaustion and slaughtered.
edit: He'll last a little longer in the open.

This depends upon resistance capabilities of the cybernetic implants in question. Still a very powerful burst of Force Lightning will greatly damage and/or destroy any cyborg. However, Dooku arguably doesn't possesses incredible command of the dark side to muster dark powers of such lethal proportions that he can utterly destroy or kill a powerful opponent (or opponents) with them. His strong point is his telekinetic abilities.
I agree that this 'strike team' might be too much for Count Dooku.

And it's pretty hard to spam lightning at three people at once. Two is doable (if difficult, if they have lightning defense), but you only have two hands.
Not sure. Dooku struggled against Ventress and Opress close quarters. In that environment, the addition of Maul would mean a quick and ugly death for the Count.
But in an open environment with plenty of shit to throw at them?
