Mother Talzin vs Snoke vs Old Daka

Bump

Old Daka is fodder here. Talzin takes this

I bet if Rian Johnson didn't direct EP 8 Snoke would win this but he was killed before doing anything significant. The NON knee-jerk answer is truthfully probably Snoke but in feats that we have seen, Talzin wins.

@darthadi:

Respect your elders sonny:

"When the planet was attacked by the Seperatists during the Clone Wars, the most ancient and knowledgeable of the Nightsister clan used her power to stir the bodies of the Nightsister's graveyard."

-- StarWars.com: Encyclopedia(old) 

"The oldest and wisest of the Nightsister clan, Old Daka's knowledge of the arcane magicks was unprecedented."

-- StarWars.com: Encyclopedia(old) 

"The oldest and wisest of the Nightsister clan, Old Daka's knowledge of the arcane magicks was unprecedented."

-- StarWars.com: Databank 

But, most importantly: 

"But for all her power, Talzin was not the mightiest of the witches -- even older Nightsisters dwelled deep within the fortress on Dathomir. During the Clone Wars, the oldest and most powerful witch was Old Daka." 

-- StarWars.com: History Gallery 

Read and weep.

@lord_tenebrous: She had vast knowledge and some impressive potent magic but as a combatant she was awful. Grievous blitzed her. Talzin fought Sidious and did pretty well. I wonder, who is more impressive?

@darthadi:

Grievous was about to kill Talzin too, remember? She had to retreat into the spirit realm to escape dying, which is why she's trying to regain her form for the rest of TCW as well as SOD. Fact is, Old Daka is more powerful and more knowledgeable than Talzin.

@lord_tenebrous: Daka can be more powerful with her magic (most of her magic needed prep anyway) but at the same time be an awful combatant. Talzin retreated because Grievous had an army of droids with him. If Daka was so good she wold have done the same thing but she got blitzed. Talzin being comparable to Sidious is enough proof that she is superior to Daka, unless you belive that Grievous >>>>Daka>=Sidious

@darthadi:

Gruevous only had a few droids in there with him, and Talzin fled. Grievous impaled Daka when she was in the middle of maintaining the spell, while Talzin just sat there until everyone had died and then committed suicide.

Daka is both more powerful with the Nightsister arts and in power.

@lord_tenebrous: So you belive Daka>Sidious

@darthadi:

No. I think Yoda > Sidious > Daka > Talzin. The latter only "matched" Sidious on Dathomir which is a unique nexus for the Nightsisters:

"The strange magicks of the Nightsisters are strongest when on their native world of Dathomir..."

-- StarWars.com: Encyclopedia(old)

"Bordering dense swamplands are the massive stone fortresses of the Nightsisters, a witch clan capable of wielding unique magic fueled by the life forces of the planet."

-- StarWars.com: Encyclopedia(old)

"The Nightsisters can tap into the magical ichor of the planet, which flows from its depths as a luminescent green mist. Wielding sorcery unique to their clan, the witches had the power to compel and transform."

-- StarWars.com: Encyclopedia(old)

Nightsisters are esoteric Force users who also have a unique connection to an energy force generated by their planet. Talzin with her own power and knowledge is not an equal of Sidious.

I nearly agree except Sidious > Yoda.

Snoke should win outside of Dathomir
