Ok I gotta ask cause it's bugging me, but what exactly has Vader done up to the Rebels time period saber wise, that makes matching him great? Far as I know, the only lightsaber combat he has done was tooling Kanan and Ezra in a non serious manner.
But...I don't really see that as much a lightsaber feat considered he outclassed them anyway.

Anything other than non canon author statements to back that up?
Even so, what feats. All Canon Vader has that's great in duelling is beating Luke, whose only strong feat is being a match for Vader mmm
Hell, Vader's best feat might actually just be matching Kenobi, and even that could be put down to Kenobi being a Soresu duellist 😱

Isn't Maul supposed to be better than in TCW? In either case, he was near enough matching Ahsoka, who goes on to contend with a Vader that'd shame Shaak. Horny red wins.
No, unless you believe quotes which have literally no canon authority. Doesn't take much to notice Maul atrophied.
What's your proof that he'd shame Shaak? I don't buy it. TFU Vader has superior feats to his Canon self at this point in time, and Galen did significantly better than Ahsoka, because, you know, he actually won. Even if you think Marek improved, there's not much to suggest his blade skill increased significantly after fighting Shaak (who was considered strong enough to be his final test). I'll accept that his ability to actually control his force powers did, however.
So if she can effectively out-duel a duelist who mildly improved, then butchered a stronger Vader than the Canon one..... why would Canon Vader shame her? mmm
Seems like pretty trash tier logic Nova, though that seems par for the course recently.

It's less than three years before ANH, not a big leap for someone whose had decades to develop his power and skill, ESB and RotJ are set only a few years after that, but by the latter (and maybe even before that) he's not at his best.
Well Force Users aren't exactly bound by human limitations, they can learn/improve much faster.
But if this is really what Canon is going for....then...yikes.
