Killing the 7th Sis is one of his best feats?....

For the record I'm assuming we're using Legends here, so bringing up Rebels a Canon source is rather moot(it's rather moot to bring up really for anything unless it's strictly Canon chars) given Legends Maul has a lot more to draw from and is more fleshed out.

In this regard, I'd say Maul can take this with his repertoire of stats and abilities.

Yeah, telekinetically dominating and killing her was one of his best feats in my opinion. But fair enough

Choking out Kenobi in Sith Hunters was Way more impressive in terms of TK feats.

Also Stomping Opress is one of his best feats given how much it puts him ahead of that level, and through power scaling everyone Opress has beaten. Also who was that martial artist Jedi again that Maul beat in Sith Hunters.

How is that impressive? He was owning Maul in hand to hand until Maul oneshotted him with his chicken legs, something he doesn't have anymore.

Based on what? I can think of plenty of times he's done so, legends or canon. Is there any proof, any quote, saying he "avoids" using TK?
I can't think of anything saying the he refrained from using it as a fully-trained sith per se, but we can infer this due to his training under Sidious where a huge emphasis on physical prowess was taught over dependency on the force in-combat.

For example, Maul was forced by Sidious to not utilize his force abilities during his entire time at the academy or Orsis (4-8 years). It was during this period when Maul acquired a good portion of the combat skills that he would continue to incorporate for the rest of his life. So if he was trained to specialize in physical combat over force-attacks of course he's going to rely on the former more as it's what he's best at. Malgus didn't train under anything close to this system. He's an outright brawler who uses everything and anything available to him in a fight. Specialization vs being well-rounded.

Also, when has Maul ever incorporated a force-move-set into his lightsaber sequences? I can't find anything in TCW or TPM.

Maul loses to Kenobi in three moves, loses to TPM Obi Wan, gets taken out by Ahsoka, struggles with dogs, loses to Kanan, can't beat TCW Kenobi with Savages help, but yeah his t3h skills are impressive lmao

Malgus stomps

gets taken out by Ahsoka,

I know you like trolling Maul, but this is a blatant lie. Ahsoka never took out Maul.

Ergo he’s on her level (even past his prime). Ergo the mad skillz

Oh and these aren’t dogs:

Malgus is the better Force user - Maul is the superior duelist; honestly, I see the former's advantage is more profound than the latter, so I'll slide my vote to Malgus.

Apprentice Malgus being more powerful than Great War era Baras, who is on par with his sister Darth Ekkage as of the time, Ekkage who is among the greatest Sith Assassins ever and was more powerful than Master Wyellett, probably doesn't bode well for Maul.

Apparently FE Malgus fought all 8 protagonists, as the Encyclopedia states he fought both Republic and Imperial strike teams.

In that case, he creams Maul.

Can you quote me?

The Empire and Republic call on their most powerful heroes to board the Sith’s stolen battlestation and bring an end to their march across the galaxy. But the rogue Sith was prepared, and has readied the battlestation in preparation for the confrontation that lies ahead. Now the most elite heroes in the galaxy must battle their way through a seemingly endless army of droids and soldiers before facing off with the rogue Sith to crush their new Empire once and for all.

Sorry, I don't know why I thought Encyclopedia.

Maul wins. He'd dismantle Malgus fairly decisively in a swordfight, and I'd give him the Force edge too, although I've not decided to what degree. A Force only battle would be interesting because Malgus seems to have a more violent use of TK than Maul.
