You recall the oneness in the dark side development? Malgus experienced major power boost since that development.
Savage's armor gives him great protection against the force, and both brothers have shown incredible pain resistance
They'd press Malgus via the blade before he could properly result to force powers, and we've seen a lot that in a duel he'll get tunnel vision and forget the force.
And don't bring up TFE, Bioware specifically left it in so that if you appeared to Malgus alone, he'd comment on YOUR character (IE, talk about being Wrath, congratulate on Dark Council etc) So we really don't know.

And Malgus' lightning is capable of burning through a torso even after overwhelming the lightsaber defense of a powerful Jedi. And his lightning vastly improved after that point. His lightning would knock out or kill Savage. Their pain tolerance is irrelevant. If Malgus actually wounds one it's game over.
Lolwut? Malgus used the Force in his duel with Satele, his fight against the Zabrak Jedi in The Third Lesson, in his assualt on the Jedi Temple, in both his duels against Aryn Leneer and in his fight with Adraas. That's like 80% of all his fights. Malgus regularly utilises the Force in a fight and doesn't suffer from tunnel vision. If anything Maul and Savage have that disadvantage since both are hardcore warriors.

Even as a swordsman, Maglus have subdued some opponents with incredible martial abilities.
Malgus's battlefield feats have never been duplicated according to Darth (freaking) Sidious himself who have history with Darth Plagueis, Darth Vader, Count Dooku, Darth Maul, Savage Opress and Assaj Ventress.
Malgus is simply too powerful for this duo. His Force Maelstrom abilities will be too much for the duo to contend with.

Yes he used the force, but did he constantly try push his opponents back so he could play on this advantage? No, it was few and far between.

In tough fights he uses it at optimal moments to give himself an advantage. So for like Satele, Zallow and Aryn he couldn't straight up overpower them but used it to push them back and give himself the advantage at certain moments. In his fight against the Zabrak Jedi he states that he could overpower the guy at any point but wanted a satisfying saber kill. When he had enough though he ended it with one lightning attack. Similarly when he achieved his darkside enlightenment against Aryn he instantly pwned her with lightning. He also tossed around Adraas with the Force multiple times to show off his dominance.
Against people like Maul and Savage whom he can overpower with TK and Lightning, I see no reason why he would hold back. Besides, I tend not to take characters personalities into account in these threads. If the character can overpower their opponent with the Force, I argue they can in the thread.

I'm going with the Maul Brothers, they gave Obi-Wan some difficulty a few times and would've killed him had it not been for him using Adi Gallia's lightsaber. though Obi doesn't compare to Malgus in terms of Raw power, the maul brother are powerful combatants. I feel like the SoD comic will elevate Maul to a whole new level - same thing goes for Talzin.

LOL That is how it sounds like. But still Obi only won Because of Jar'Kai had he not he might've died imo. also i forgot to add that in a lightsaber only fight Malgus would probably die.
