Hmm...alright.

Maul having any shred of his dignity left is reliant on Nova being wrong

Kaitis isn't >TPM Maul. She isn't above pre-TPM Maul, much less a tier 8 who's one of the deadliest Sith sworsdmen in history.

pre-tpm maul didn't legitimately beat katis barring a cheap-shot.

And his subjective opinon isn't actually reliable when he himself admits he underestimated her.

I'm not seeing why we're giving thisversion of maul a legit victory here

TCW Ahsoka isn't destroying a 7 (she is a 7, probs), never mind an 8.

TCW Tano a 7? I can't see her being in the same ballpark as someone like Fisto, tbh. Even for an exceptional Padawan.

You realize that tiers were likened to the ritcher scale and the difference between 7's can be huge?

She could be a 6, but I meant that even giving her as much generosity as I could, she's only a 7 and thus couldn't possibly destroy Maul.

I tpm Kenobi is a 7...

Evidently a low 7.

TPM Kenobi is a 6. Only the final battle with Maul after Jinn died is a 7.

Is that stated?

Heavily implied, I believe. I recall Gillard ranking Kenobi "6 maybe 7," or something like that. In the same interview, he talks about how the dark-side is essentially like steroids that boost you up a level, as you know. Given Kenobi blatantly increased in performance and is demonstrably outraged, we can conclude he started as a 6 and then ascended to a 7 with the boost. It's similar with Anakin where he was a 8 as a Jedi and then boosted to 9 with the dark-side (Mace too).

After TPM, Kenobi would have went back to a 6. The following decade and an odd-some years would have been him reaching 7 "the right way" and then perfecting it enough to eventually get into level 8 around ROTS.

TPM Obi-Wan is probably a very high 6 or a very low 7, but I'm leaning towards Ant's conclusion; baseline TPM Obi-Wan is a very high 6.

Ok soo....I asked the writer when the Maul series takes place, he said he left it open but figures a year was about right.

Which again I find bizarre but...ok I guess. Unless a source changes it later, but there ya go.

I don't think TPM Kenobi is a six. Gillard once said "six or seven" and then said "seven." That implies that Kenobi is at least somewhat of a low 7. And given he has an accolade putting him as one of the Jedi's best fighters before TPM, I don't see how he is a 6.

I wouldn't give him any credence on this. Maul seems way younger than he does in TPM.

But, on the other had, it does make Maul even more pathetic.

mmm

Maul looks nearly identical to his TPM self in the comic. Personality-wise though, yeah, he seems a few years younger.

Perhaps.

His older series was better in this regard.

Who cares. We know he's a match for both Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan combined by TPM. Plus we know he's a Level 8 on Gillard's ranking by then.
