He reached out with the Force as
Razor continued its rise, tried to take it
in his mental grasp. Its ascent slowed.
He held forth both of his arms, made
claws of his hands, and shouted with
frustration as he sought to hold back
the power of the ship’s thrusters.
He felt a tightness in his mind, the
string of his power being drawn taut,
stretching, stretching. He would not release
the ship. Its thrusters began to
whine. He held it, teeth gritted, sweat
soaking his body, his breath a dry rattle
through his respirator.
And then the string snapped and the
ship flew free, lifting clear of the roof
doors.

Iirc, HoT notes that Malgus' saber form is immaculate, can't remember if there was more, but I'm see Neph has it laying around somewhere.
Also HoT(especially pre-KotFE) > Kenobi as duelist? Nah.
Based on what? He was stated as being the greatest duelist in the Order before act III.
Yeah, IIRC, the Hero says that Malgus form was "flawless". Doesn't mean that he is > the HoT, tho.

Kenobi statlemating Maul/Legends Grievous/Mustafar Anakin, soarring evenly with Anakin, holding his own against Dooku, beating Ventress and Grievous and besting Opress is better than anything the HoT has done.

Wow. As far as character opinions concerned Windu musing that Kenobi could be greater than himself shits all over HoT's opinion of Malgus 😂

Damn that's impressive. That accolade puts the HoT above such powerhouses as Satele, and, and...and who?
Meanwhile Kenobi as of TPM was almost equal to Qui-Gon who was one of the greatest Jedi duelist ever and who himself was better than Anoon who has similar accolade than HoT. And in his prime Kenobi is better than Plo who is one of the most powerful jedi ever and even Maul praised his lightsaber skills. He is better than Fisto, Agen, Saesee. All three has better accolade than the HoT. Kenobi is also better than Grievous, who is the best hand to hand jedi killer the galaxy has ever seen, and Maul, who is one of the most skilled, deadly, and highly trained sith in the history of their Order. He also shows parity of Mace and Dooku, who are the single greatest duelists up to their time, surpassed by only Yoda and Sidious.
Get back to me when HoT even begins to scrap the dirt on Kenobi's boot.

That isn't what Windu indicated. He was suggesting that Obi-Wan is better suited to beating GG than him. It's not the same as the HoT, Malgus comparison. The Hero is a known master of all lightsaber forms and stated that Malgus' form was flawless. That's an impressive as hell indication of skill.

Tol Braga, Kellian Jarro, Corin Tok, Jaeric Kaeden, Sajar, the Barsen'thor and many others. Just because the lightsaber skills of the PT is a thousand times as explored as TOR doesn't mean they're inferior. TOR happens to have a million times as much lightsaber combat happening, the conflict far surpasses the Clone Wars in terms of length and Jedi and Sith were furiously preparing for lightsaber dueling. There's no reason to doubt their skill.

A worthless accolade. So he's in the top hundred? Thousand? He'd get chumped by the Hero.

Only from his own padawan's perspective. Bondara was obviously vastly inferior to true greats.

Oh shit, Plo Koon? Definitely HoT + right there.

No they don't. The Hero would beat the shit out of all 3 of them.

I'm pretty sure Kenobi didn't exactly fare well against Grievous in H2H. And Kenobi only beat him by fighting him enough times to figure out his weaknesses. Grievous beat his ass the other 3 or 4 times they fought.

Again with the worthless quotes. Kenobi isn't better than Maul.
