Now that Maul is fodder tier

Who do you rank higher as a result of Maul's low showings becoming more common? After we become aware of how Maul was tooled by Ezra, who in Legends/Canon would you rank above him and why? Why do yout think Filoni has turned Maul into a Grievous in terms of consistency in fights?

I rank all legends characters above him, bar some BT Characters 👆

I think it's more reasonable to conclude that a) Ezra has improved considerably or b) Maul has declined in his old age than to retroactively nerf all of his previous accomplishments.

It's unfair to bash Maul just because Ezra. Dude didn't even know about the force until a year ago and is already hitting TCW Ahsoka level feats. His growth rate is insane and the power creep is just gonna keep coming. At the rate he's going, it wouldn't surprise me if he was Galen Marek level by the end of the series. It's obvious Filoni is really trying to set him up to be some big powerhouse. Maybe even give him a good showing against Vader.

It's not just about Ezra. It's about Ezra, Kanan, Kenobi, Sugi, and Embo's ****ing dog.

I'm aware of TPM Kenobi's status, Maul still lost to a padawan tho hmph

maul is a failure
dooku is a cuck
vader as anakin was a mentally unstable piece of shit

man, palpatine really had bad luck with apprentices lmao

It's obvious that Maul lets Ezra subdue him and perhaps even try to strike him down because that would mean that the latter would give into his anger (and come closer to the Dark Side). All this Maul lowballing is getting quite tiresome...

Maul has always been fodder. Role call :

Siolourmanka - Stomped Maul in Round One, died to a cheap trick in Round Two

Mighella - A random Nightsister who gave it good until her weapon broke. My guess is that a longer contest between them might end up with Maul tripping over

Darsha Assant - Just another Padawan that nearly killed him

TPM Kenobi - Beat maul via superior speed

Kenobi again - Sent him and his brother pining for the nearest cyberneitc surgeon in a battle that literally cost them an arm and a leg

Embo's Attack Dog - nearly killed him

Sidious - Obviously

Kanan - Was unable to blind him with a direct lightsaber hit to the face, and then trips over

Ezra - Trips over backwards into some boxes

When I complete my basic exercises, I power up my double-bladed lightsaber and practice maneuvers. My body is as strong as durasteel and as fluid as water. I shift from one position of attack to another. I fall on one knee and slash my lightsaber as I imagine cleaving my victim cleanly. I roll away and grip my lightsaber with both hands for a vertical sweep. I leap and twist and come down, leading with my left shoulder. I deliver a death blow and leap away, somersaulting in the air. I perform ten thousand slashes, lunges, attacks.

My lightsaber is no longer a separate weapon, but part of my arm. I move in the time it would take my opponent to blink. I move in the time he would take to raise his weapon. He would only see the space where I had been. He would feel the sudden shock of the blow that would knock him to the floor. I do these maneuvers a hundred times a day. I do them even though my body knows them intimately, even though I have not made a mistake or a misstep in years. I do them until the memory of the movement is part of the muscle itself. The goal of the Sith is to fight without thought.

Not to mention he was downed by a dog. How's that Quanchi?

And struggled to get dog off himself.

Your problem first of all is trying to mix Legends and Canon. Rebels is a Canon only medium, meaning you can't take Maul's Legends showings and try to apply them as it just doesn't work. TPM and TCW seeing as they are Canon, is what should be used if discussing Rebels.

This will all be funny when he rapes Vader's ass.
