I don't think the fight can be accurately used to powerscale for Ben or Maul for several reasons. The biggest thing is the fact that Maul used the same old tricks *exactly*; moves that Kenobi has already seen and is familiar with. Kenobi is a more transformative and progressive fighter than Maul is, and that transformation is seen pretty evidently when Ben shifts from his PT opening stance to a simpler one, as Ares has mentioned. Maul thought he was facing an old, crippled hermit and nothing more, so I don't think he really expected anything impressive skill-wise from Kenobi.

The fight is more symbolic of Maul's stagnation and how he clings to the past, while Kenobi has moved on, both mentally and in a dueling-sense. Ben and Maul's face-off is more exclusive to them and their past and growth (or lack thereof) as characters. Using it to start saying "ya lol maul is fodder even ___ can beat him" or "ben can stomp malgus now" is really just ridiculous.

Pathetic.

Ben's a level 6, Vader's a 4. 🙂

😂

Wow just watched this half-assed shit from Filoni. I think I mentally an heroed.

Honestly the rebels recon made me appreciate the episode so much more. And the duel was incredibly symblic if short.
Props to feloni and disney

Vitiate has demonstrated a wider variety and more poweful uses of Force powers, but Kenobi would probably cream him in a combat scenario with his vastly superior skill, tactics and speed. 🙂

It was just bad promotion and storytelling tbh. I mean seriously who enjoyed that fight except for Maul haters?

Kenobi wankers 🙂

At least you got exactly what you wanted dude 👆

But hey even for Kenobi's no.1 fan, this would have meant a thousand times more if not for that Kanan vs Maul crapfest.
