Every since darth in existance decides to have a good old royal rumble, using guile, the force and their trusty light sabers.

Who comes out on top?

does the victor get to say "there can be only one"?

Revan would win. He was the most pimped out of all the Darths at the end of KOTR, if you went evil.

Seconded. The athsmatic cyborg, tribal circus performer, and crazy old man just don't compare.

And Exar Kun is not a 'Darth'.

Hmm...Darth Vader before he went cyborg might win, only because he is said to have the highest amount of midichlorians in his cells, though I don't know whether that translates into total Force power.

The only other ones who I think might do it would be Darth Reven, because he wassaid to be the Heart of the Force or something like that,

Darth Sion because he could draw on the Dark Side to fuel his 'life' and thus was pretty much immortal,

or

Darth Nihilus because he could suck the life out of millions in one sitting on any particular planet.

But I would go with Darth Sion, as the only way to beat him would be through psychological means. Other then that he would be unstoppable.

It should be noted the mask Darth Nihilus wears is made from the skull of Darth Revan.

And with this word, your argument fails in the eyes of every Star Wars fan.

Yeah, Revan is still alive and well at the end of KotOR II, they just lost track of him.

The idea of Nihilus's mask being Revan's skull was a scrapped idea. It does not, in any way, count.

And according the Kreia, Revan is "The very heart of the Force." Meaning he's freakishly powerful, probably more so than Anakin at his peak.

If we are limiting it to those who've actually received the title of "Darth": Darth Revan or Darth Bane.

Darth Nihilus in concept is pretty powerful, but is a wuss when you fight him...

I know a lot of Star Wars fans hate the idea of Midichlorians, and I don't blame them. It did take away some of the mystery of the Force. I was going by official 'canon.'

I know Reven is still alive in the sequel, though I have a feeling he might be there besides "finding the true Sith" because he had Jedi babies with either Bastila or the Exile. Most likely Bastila, and you might end up playing as one of them if there's a sequel. I hope they don't go this route in the sequel, its just so PREDICTABLE. Though some Star Wars fans hope we'll get that kind of story.

sidious. ive always loved sidious, and i was usually laughed at when i argued him as the most powerful sith lord, but its recently been confirmed. it was mentioned in dark empire a long time ago but people ignored it. he has the most power and hes by far the most cunning and patient. in dark empire he could destroy entire armadas using only the force. it probably wouldnt come to that though, hed be planning and scheming and hed end up letting the other fight for him. hed hide his power like in the prequel trilogy and let the other sith think hes just a weak old man. hed beg for mercy and sit back and watch while the others focused on who they thought were greater threats, and then sidious would easily slaughter whoever was left towards the end.

To be fair, evryone was a wuss when I fought them. I was dropping Dark jedi and Sith left and right as the Exile. Somehow, he was freakishly powerful.

If I remember right, I named him Ecks Aiyal.

I wasn't really trying to flame. It's just that, yeah, most Star Wars Fans (Myself included) HATE the idea of...The M-Word.

Hmmm, I'd have to disagree. Sidious was smart, cunning and powerful, however, he didn't have a huge connection to the force when compared to Vader and then Luke. So he may have been the most powerful Sith Lord seen in awhile.

Which was why Sidious and Vader were both willing to betray each other to get Luke on their side.

But, in a battle of the Darths, if Sidious tried the "I'm an old man, don't hurt me" stuff. He'd be struck down pretty quickly.

Although I figure he'd take out Darth Sion quickly, since Sidious is pretty handy with the lightning.

But ultimately he'd end up getting owned by Revan.

Thats alright then I know many Star Wars fans don't care for the 'virgin birth idea' either, like Mr. Lucas is trying to make Anakin out as some sort of Jesus.. Mr. Lucas, what were you thinking I like the Phantom Menace, but there are some parts I do not like about it.

It seems that Darth Reven is winning in the butt- kicking contest.

vader would have been more powerful if hed remained in tact and healthy, but he didnt, so at his best he was 80% sidious, and luke, whos a freak by any standards isnt a sith. their the only two who have more power than him, and thats because their part of the same bloodline, that began with the force itself. i think there is enough stuff out there to show sidious is the most powerful. in dark empire im pretty sure the ancient sith "ghosts "explicitly started that he was the most powerful that ever lived.

the "im an old man" stuff wouldnt work because the other darths would have mercy on him, just because theyd have to focus on threats they considered much greater. why turn your back on someone like maul when the other guy cowering in he corner looks like a slight breeze would kill him. its not a matter of "leave him alone, its mean to pick on old men" hed just be viewed as a non threat, and there are alot of other guys around that would kill you in a heartbeat if you turned your back on them. and i think sidious would make short work of anyone who actually did try and kill him. and when the last few really powerful darths were left theyd all be tired and unprepaired for a fairly rested sidious.

check out dark empire for a good look at his true power.

THe problem with that Unique is that you're not counting the fact that most sith are completely evil, totally wicked individuals. They don't just dislike weakness, they abhor it. Therefore, they'd just as sooner strike Sideous down than they would one of the less powerful Darths.

I reckon that Traya would certainly take care of Sideous first. She was probably the wisest of the Darths, only Revan came close to her sort of insight. She also has the gift of cloaking herself in the force (as does Maul i believe?). In fact, Maul and Plagulis would know full well what he was capable of, being his aprentice and former master respectively. So that's three people who would immediately take care of Sidious.

Personally, i'm a Revan sorta guy. Folks like Sion, Malak and Bane would dominate, Vader could only compete if we're talking before he got himself eviserated.

Assuming that Malak is taken out early, it would come down to a duel between Revan, Sion and Bane. Bane was more or less taking all of his own knowledge FROM Revan, and developing his ideas so lacked Revan's originality. That would knock him out of the ring.

So i feel it would come down to Sion and Revan. Sion, as physically tough as he is lacks the control in the force that some Sith have, Revan included. Therefore Revan would finally take care of him.
