A marquis.
Marquis is below a Duke and above an Earl.
An earl is a lower rank than a duke. A Duke is the highest rank of nobility right after the Prince. An Earl, on the other hand, is a lower rank above viscount and below a marquis.

Since Duke of Earl is slang for a person that succeeds on a task, the opposite of a Duke of Earl would be a busta or buster which is slang for a person that fails at a task.
The title level below an Earl is a Viscount. In the British peerage system, the hierarchy of titles typically follows this order: Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount, and Baron. Each title carries its own historical significance and privileges, with the Earl being a higher rank than a Viscount.

No, a count and an earl are not the same thing. A count is a noble title in various European countries, while an earl is a British noble title ranking below a marquess and above a viscount.
