Do you lose power when you have bad piston rings?

Does this lower your compression or mess with your air/fuel mix?

it lowers compression, which decreases power. It can also contaminate your oil with gasoline, causing increase in friction and possible permanent damage to con-rods, crank, cams, etc.
