1. Bringing up outdated continuity doesn't prove anything
2. Gaining knowledge is a clear indication of power growth. Maul physically clearly doesn't mean much when he's improved as a fighter. Fleoni has attributed the shortness of their fight to both improving as fighters. Maul being superior to his tcw incarnation isn't debatable. And given that he's had 15 years to grow in power where he's kept active
3, Maul was also less powerful and implied as the superior fighter. His mental state doesn't change this.
4. 😆 Maul only handed kenobi "his ass" in sith hunters when he amped. On the turtle tanker he was losing to an injured and mentally off balance kenobi prior to using dun moch and on florrum he was losing to kenobi depite the help of his brother and kenobi using a secondary style. Not to mention this was tcw rather than rots kenobi.
Originally posted by Rebel95His skills make him better. I never said his force power was greater. He's more formidable in combat and has the skills to especially exploit Vader's diminshed mobility.
"His power isn’t on Vader’s level, true, or even on Count Dooku’s level — but that never stops him. He stands alongside the Sith Lords only by sheer force of will."
-Jeremy Barlow (The author of SoD) referring to Maul

2. No, it's an indication of wisdom gained. Based off what has he improved as a fighter in rebels ? Provide the quote. So surviving means you grow in power. You need the evidence to prove his power has increased or the reference in the show. You have nothing but your idiotic opinion as a source.
3. Based off what ?? Your mental state is very important in a sporting event, fight, or any type of competitive endeavor. Are you retarded ?
4. He wasn't amped. Prove it. He also handed him his ass prior to his arrogance in APM. Maul bfrd him which is a victory according to forum rules.

Yeah I'm delusional, coming from the guy that thinks Maul would beat Vader even though Maul himself straight up says he can't defeat Vader alone 😆 Classic

Maul straight up admitting his inferiority and the quote from the author of SoD should be more than enough to show that Vader>Maul. Sorry Maul isn't as great as you wish he was

Prove he was lying
Not to mention Vader toyed with Kanan and Ezra, whereas Maul was humiliated by Kanan alone.Maul straight up admitting his inferiority and the quote from the author of SoD should be more than enough to show that Vader>Maul. Sorry Maul isn't as great as you wish he was
Maul blinded him and had him dead to rights. Tano intervened. Maul was arrogant and fell off without any injuries.
He lied to Ezra and his actions pretty much confirmed that you dope. Maul is great and him surviving decades on his own without any tried and true allies shows how much willpower the man has. There will never be another Maul. Ever.
Originally posted by DarthAnt66He had a temporary surge of rage to get him back on his feet. Point is, he's a cripple at the end of the day with that control panel so ****1ng exposed. Maul wouldn't have a problem landing a precision strike on it.
I recall Vader willing his machinery back to life in one of his most epic moments of his career directly thereafter?
