Yeah, he knew where they were after he tricked them into going into the maze, where his power was very clearly being employed to single them out. As for knowing about them, he was clearly creeping around Canterlot Castle for some time following his escape. I’d hardly call the Tirek thing omnipresence; seems more like he’s just really good at getting where he wants to be pretty much instantaneously. He sensed Tirek’s attack, realized where he was, and teleported there. I think you meant to type “but”.

Anyway, regardless of what Discord is capable of, this conversation came out of the question as to whether Eris is less powerful than him or not. Now, I will admit that it’s entirely possible that you’re right and she is. However, nothing I’ve read about her so far makes me inclined to believe that any such thing is the case. In fact, I’d say it’s pretty clear they must be about evenly matched, given Eris’ contempt of Discord and the fact that Luna and Stygian don’t even seem to have considered the idea of going to him for help against her. It’s hard to be as dismissive of someone as Eris is of Discord if they’re more powerful than you, and if Discord was so much stronger then I would think Stygian would at least have considered him for the team, even if he rejected the idea for one reason or another.
