I kinda agree, I still contend that Palpatine who was considered the most powerful Sith Lord ever was toying with Mace Windu. Remember he pretty much beat Yoda to a standstill and easily dispatched two Jedi masters without breaking a sweat.
I don't know if you've read the Plageous novel which was really well done, but Sideous was a master manipulator and strategist, but he was pretty accomplished in fighting.
Lucas considered him to be an embodiment of the Dark Side.
