Caedus beats him. By presentable evidence, he's the more skilled duelist, and, quite frankly, the better Force user, too.

Er, wouldn't it be the other way around? Jacen's a Skywalker; you don't really get more powerful than them. Furthermore, he also has a lot of esoteric abilities that aren't practically combat-useful.

I would think that the better description would be, "Marka probably isn't more powerful, but his abilities would (theoretically) be better suited for combat."

Yeah. That sounds reasonable.

Strength, power and strategy marked the rule of Marka Ragnos. Descended from the original Sith inhabitants of Korriban and the Dark Jedi exiles who interbred with them, Marka Ragnos was destined for greatness. He conquered his competitors in a series of quick, ruthless campaigns and became Dark Lord of all Sith, a title he would hold for more than a century. The reign of Marka Ragnos might have been short-lived had he not displayed great strategic discipline. Instead of clashing directly with Sith challengers who hungered for his power, he pitted his enemies against each other to weaken and destroy them.

Sorry, but:



The only thing he got through combat was the title of Dark Lord through killing Simus (who would also fit under the category of Sith Lords whose powers are more esoteric than combat-applicable) and even then, manipulation and strategy were likely the heavy lifters in his ascension to power.

Kun's not an Ancient Sith, and he's confirmed to be more powerful than any of them.

And being the most powerful doesn't mean you have the most combat-applicable powers, lmfao. Keep up with the conversation.

I'm talking about Force power. Just being powerful in the Force does not in any way mean that you have the most combat-applicable powers. It's not hard to keep up.
