Darth Maul vs Count Dooku

Dooku, yeah.

Lord Tyranus wins

Dooku stomps

compare their performances vs Grievous or Kenobi and you'll have your answer. And yes, that includes taking consideration of context aside from Maul's legs or Dooku having a stylistic edge.

Legends, Dooku wins.

I am assuming this is sod maul, rebels maul vs Dooku is actually debatable though the argument for Dooku is naturally going to be a much solidified one due to the abundance of feats and forward scaling he gets.

Legends, Dooku wins.

Maul wins against Canon Dooku.

Maul loses to Legends Dooku.

maul loses to both

Dooku in both to varying degrees.

Canon Dooku wins 7/10 in a gruesome match.

Legends Dooku wins 10/10 in a difficult match.

Legends, Dooku hands down. Better swordsman, way better with the Force.

Canon, I've seen it suggested that canon Maul is actually higher up on the totem pole for lightsaber skill than Dooku (I believe it was in "Absolutely Everything You Need To Know"?). Even with that in mind, I wouldn't put the two that far apart in terms of raw skill, and I'd argue Dooku is still more refined than Maul. And of course, Dooku's mastery of the Force compared to Maul can't be contested. Maul never manifested lightning in Legends or Canon, Dooku has. How much of an advantage Dooku's edge in the Force would give him is tough to determine, but I'd definitely say Dooku gains the overall edge. Something like 6-7/10.

So, Ben Kenobi has stomped a Rebels Vader tier threat, who during his weakest incarnation (TPM) is canonically greater than Dooku as a lightsaber duelist.

In other words, he went from stonewalling Dooku in ROTS to stomping a far greater duelist than Dooku in Rebels.

Disney Canon is wonderful.

The most ridiculous argument for Dooku, is that he's "more refined than Maul." How exactly?!

Sidious trained Maul to literal perfection. 👆

Canon portrays Dooku as a graceful fighter, most effective against other tamed lightsaber forms/fighters. We see what happens when you put his elegant Makashi up against the ferocious and unpredictable fighting styles of Anakin and Vos. Maul is just as, if not more, savage as either of these two fighters.

Even Yoda ponders his own ability to defeat Darth Maul. 👆

This is glorious, ngl.
