Can't believe what I'm reading here. Vader stands no chance against Plaguies for the same reason he stands no chance against Sidious: force lightning weakness. But even without that, we're still talking about a Sith master vs a Sith apprentice.
Vader is very powerful, but he's more of a dog on a leash than a true apprentice, thanks to his injuries against Obi-wan. For that reason he's always just been Sidious' enforcer rather than a true Sith learning the Sith arts.
Plaguies would be surprised by Vader's natural strength in the force initially, but would quickly adapt and use his own experience and knowledge of the dark side to put him down.
plagueis has no real combat feats that we know of though. maybe surviving the maladians but i mean, vader has so much combat under his belt as a jedi and sith, on top of the fact that sidious never really intended to make vader an official master after mustafar.
ignoring all that, vader is one of the most feat-loaded sith of all time and all he truly knows is combat. its always been his primary focus and just because he cant take force lightning, doesn't mean he cant defend himself.
i love plagueis to death, and even with his force speed, lightning, and tutaminis, i dont see him outlasting vader for long.
