Wait, since when is Darth Maul above Dooku? Dooku is skilled enough with a lightsaber to go toe-to-toe with Yoda himself, and strong enough with the force to fire lightnings. Maul is nowhere near his level. Heck, just compare their performances against Obi-Wan. Dooku was able to easily defeat Obi-Wan in both Attack Of The Clones and Revenge Of The Sith (even with Anakin helping him), while Darth Maul suffered some humiliating defeats at Obi-Wan's hands in The Phantom Menace and Star Wars Rebels.

[@nashgaming6682]

This!

[@hisexcellency916]

If you read the Darth Maul audiobook, you’ll learn he was more powerful than Dooku. Palpatine himself said that Maul is the best athlete the Sith ever had in its history and was second to only him in saber skills.

[@dylangray3004]

Plus maul beat obi wan so many times in the clone wars

[@ilikecheese7598]

I mean in the EU maul has defeated Vader plus maul is described by George Lucas as stronger than dooku. In terms of swordsmanship maul was trained his entire life he was a fraction of dookus age. Dueling would probably go too maul just about due too him having better feats. Defeating mace windu and defeating Vader. Also force lightning wouldn’t slow him down. Maul has shrugged off dookus lightning before he will just ignore it and keep going. It would just be a repeat of anakin vs dooku. Maul wins mid-high dif

[@matthewmann8969]

​@@hisexcellency916According to most sources in Canon Dooku was more powerful then Maul even compared to Late Clone Wars Maul they said the Talzin healed Maul was not on Dookus nor Vaders level of power plus out of the two of them in Son Of Dathomir Mace thought of Dooku being the master and Maul being the apprentice plus in the fight when Sidious And Talzin were dueling with there force/magic abilities they were tied then when Maul who was near full consciousness and added his power to Talzin and when a near dead Dooku helped Sidious with his power in addition team Sidious gained ground not team Talzin plus Sidious even after he found out Maul was still alive and healed by Talzins magics mostly he still never planned on asking Maul back as a apprentice one of the reasons but not only one being that Dooku was still more powerful plus had more use at that point and Anakin would be potentially able to be turned anyways Maul had more potential then Dooku but he never reached it not even close or half in Canon Maul was the offspring of Talzin so had a potency higher then hers and likely higher then Sidious own but due to losing on Naboo and lacking more training he never got passed Dookus power plus as far as lightsaber skills go it placed Maul above Tyrannus as a red lightsaber wielder but then one of the writers said that Dooku was the more skilled lightsaber duelist so a bit of a contradiction there what Prime Maul had over Prime Tyrannus is physical abilities and unarmed combat but is outmatched in Saber skills and definitely force abilities overall yeah.

[@David-cv1se]

Ben Solo is Disney nonsense garbage. Luke had the son named Ben

[@williamsaaranen7672]

And he was more powerful also.

[@BlazerK1914]

Darth Sidious: “You will not stop me.” Darth Nihilus: “I can try.”

[@TheTrytix]

Sidious and Nihilus is an interesting comparison in terms of power and all that. Though Nihilus arguably did much more impressive feats, like killing all life on Katarr and using all that force energy to become stronger in the force. People will still argue how Sidious was stronger, but I'd argue Sidious was a better Sith overall, while Nihilus was min-maxed in force abilities specifically. Hell, Palpatine was a brilliant leader as well, and had a pretty strong grasp on his empire. Meanwhile, Nihilus, unorthodoxly so for a Sith, did not care to establish an Empire to rule over. He only cared for one thing. Satiating his endless hunger for life-force that was slowly eating himself from the inside all the while empowering him in the process. Nihilus wasn't his own master anymore, he was becoming a slave to the dark side, only ever managing to show what little of his humanity he had left when he saved Visas Marr from Katarr and made Marr his own apprentice.

Not sure about Dooku being behind Maul. It's also worth mentioning that the Darth Vader we got was nowhere near the Darth Vader we could have had due to Anakin's/Vader's pre-Mustafar potential being the highest in the franchise.

[@TheTrytix]

Suppose this is the result of what happens when you let an amateur rank Siths. There are... SOOO many mistakes with all of this honestly. -The vast majority of these characters aren't even Sith. -Ranks Inquisitors above Darth Shaa, who was an ACTUAL Sith. -Savage was never able to beat Dooku, not even with help from Ventress. -Stop referring to characters as "Sith apprentices" or Relating to being Sith in any capacity when they are not. -Darth Shaa was killed before Darth Bane was even born (If Legends is to be believed), and as a result, she did NOT "fall victim to the infamous rule of two". -"Savage would eventually become an apprentice to Darth Maul, and a Sith Lord himself." Savage was NOT a Sith Lord. -"List wouldn't be complete without Grievous." Well, it would have been if you bothered to include more actual Sith lords. -Puts Dooku below Maul, despite the fact the Jedi even once questioned if they were in league as master and apprentice. And guess who they believed was the master? Yup, Dooku. Who was more powerful. -"Dooku became Sidious apprentice once the galactic civil war started". Also wrong, since the Galactic Civil War started officially 17 years after Dooku's death, in 2 BBY. -"Darth Maul became one of the most powerful Sith to ever live." Sure, if you make sure to include Vader, Palpatine, Dooku, Nihilus, Vitiate, Revan, Possibly Momin, Malgus, Plagueis, and probably many more from the Old Republic, who's counting, right? -Considering Momin was able to outmatched an arguably battle worn Darth Vader, it's shameful how he is below the Grand Inquisitor, who BTW were toyed with by Vader. -Forgets Darth Bane exist despite even mentioning the rule of two. Obviously this list is only focusing on Canon Sith (And dark side force users, and dark Jedi and others like the Knights of Ren and Grievous). But it'd be nice if you included that in the title, ESPECIALLY when you have Darth Nihilus in the thumbnail!
