Are Nightsisters More Powerful Than Jedi?

Let’s look at the history of the Nightsisters in battle to determine how powerful they really are. The «Ahsoka» Season 1 finale features a showdown between Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) and Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto), which ends with the Jedi coming out on top. Ultimately, this proves that the most skilled Jedi warriors are capable of defeating notable witches of Dathomir and Peridea.

That said, the Nightsisters don’t have the best track record against Sith, either. Season 3’s «Nightsisters» episode of «Star Wars: The Clone Wars» sees Ventress (Nika Futterman) lead a coven to take down Count Dooku (Corey Burton), but he’s able to fend them off on his own, even while under the influence of a poisoned dart. Likewise, Sidious wipes the floor with Darth Maul (Sam Witwer) and Savage Opress (Clancy Brown), both of whom were born to Nightsisters, during their big battle scene in the aforementioned animated series.

Furthermore, the Nightsisters don’t even fare well against General Grievous. The ruthless warrior visits Dathomir and wipes out their clans in «The Clone Wars,» and he even gets the better of Daka — who’s regarded as the most powerful Nightsister — during the battle. Grievous is a juggernaut who’s destroyed his fair share of Jedi, too, but even he fell to Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) in the end. The Nightsisters are definitely the most magical beings in the galaxy far, far away, but the best Jedi are the most formidable warriors.
