What evidence is there that Maul's out of his prime? lollol
Vader handled Ahsoka, who's maneuverable and agile as hell, just fine. Vader also tried to kill Ahsoka without hesitation. That emotional weakness doesn't kick in until Luke comes along.
Vader's better.
That doesn't make him more maneuverable than she is. It just means he overcame his former student. It's always been there just as he was always susceptible to corruption.
Maul's better. Vader benefited from being on the side of an empire against a weaker era than during the prequels.
