Asajj as a Sith?

I think a lot of people are thinking of using her dispel against baze and chirrut, shoretrooper... under EP as a sith she'd be worth trying for sure.

Assaj was never a sith. She was merely a tool to sell that Dooku was actually the 'master'. She wasn't even trained in the ways of the sith, she had a bit of dark side training from Dooku and became his assassin.
That being said though, Maul was the same. He was never actually trained as a sith, just a weapon for the dark side to use before being cast aside. And yet he has the tag so who knows what factors contribute to who gets tagged as what in this game.

Swap "Maul" with "Savage" and i agree! ;)

Even though Savage could count as a Sith, since Maul took him as Apprentice and trained him as Sith, however, there is the "rule of two" and there was already a rival due (Sidious and Dooku), but well ... for a short time, both duos claimed the title to be the true Siths ... (until sid visited Maul and Savage and assured them, they are not ;) )

This question pops up frequently, I have observed.

Let's put this into perspective shall we. Ventress wasn't a sith. At all. She was merely a tool trained and utilized by count dooku and sidous. The rule of two states that there can only be two! In episode 1 Darth Maul WAS sidious' apprentice until he was killed. Between the events of episode 1 & 2, Dooku was made sidious' apprentice which then reinstated the rule of two.

ventress was a sith, she was trained by dooku to defeat sidious so he could be the next sith lord, Sidious knew she existed and tasked dooku with annihilating her before she could become powerful enough to defeat him (though she later becomes a jedi)

maul was the original apprentice to sidious who was thought dead till the clone wars

Plageuis himself acknowledged that all Sith Lords after Bane always kept in mind more than once apprentice to replace them. Ventress is a bit tricky. Dooku (Darth Tyrannus) was obviously the true apprentice of Palpatine after Maul "died". Throughout the history of the Sith, the apprentice would always keep an eye out for other apprentices for when they themselves became the master. Palgues's master had more than one apprentice himself as well in case he needed to replace one. The rule of two is more of a guideline that an absolute.

This being said, since Savage is considered a Sith due to him being Dooku's apprentice leans towards the idea that Ventress should be Sith as well. I guess the only argument against this was the Dooku was using Ventress as an assassin with the prospect of becoming his actual apprentice in the future. This is why Palpatine had him try to kill her.

Then how would you explain Savage? Sidious was already master with Dooku as apprentice. Ventriss was certainly a dark force user, maybe not technically a full Sith. But your logic is flawed.The rule of two was never taken as an absolute by moth Sith Lords.

Maul was absolutely trained as a Sith. He was acknowledged by Sidious himself as his true apprentice.
