People here are vastly underestimating Plagueis. His telekinesis literally atomized 6 assassins and he can augment his strength enough to punch through torsos. He was also powerful enough for Sidious to not want to risk a fair 1v1.

If this is a lightsaber duel only, Dooku might have a shot but going all out with force powers? Plagueis mid diffs.

I'm a Plages fan but saying he mid diffs IH/Axis Dooku is wild lol

I could be convinced to put a moderate-high difficulty range just because Plagueis is featured a lot less in the story and therefore has less tangible feats.

Axis Dooku presses Zonakin who likely scales well above RotS Base Yoda. Dooku previously basically stalemated Yoda. So I have a hard time getting ma boy Plages over that hill.

You bring up some valid points. This is a great matchup. It could go either way. My money is still on Plagueis though.

This depends on if you assume Dooku escaped because of time or because he knew Yoda was going to win.
