How is it filler? Rex, one of the main characters, is having a good bit of character development. That's the exact opposite of filler.
Like, why even focus so much on the clones at this point? Do they really even need character-building this close to the end?

Any fans who may not have read the comics might be pretty confused when Maul inextricably shows up during the Siege of Mandalore, given that he was last seen in the show getting his ass pulverized by Palpatine.
Son of Dathomir really deserved to be adapted in animation because it shows what happened to Maul between The Lawless and Rebels, plus it had some great moments like Maul vs Mace & Aayla, I can't believe that Lucasfilm prioritised Bad Batch over that.

Why wouldn't they? The clones (specifically Rex) have had more focus than anyone other than Ahsoka and maybe Anakin. Sure, the stakes may not be as big as episodes focusing on Maul, but that doesn't make them filler. The Ahsoka walkabout arc seems more like filler to me. They should have done the other Ahsoka arc instead, the one with the Sith Shrine under the Jedi Temple.
Dooku and Grievous should still be alive at this point, assuming the show follows the same timeline as the novel.
In the novel, Anakin and Kenobi were originally supposed to lead the Siege of Mandalore themselves, but were recalled when Dooku launched his attack on Coruscant... That's when Ahsoka entered the fray, and led the strike instead.
Looks like we might get to see Mace actually do... Something next ep.

...I'm not too sure what to think of that scene.

Like a non-swearing Sam Jackson there. I approve.

or Grievous vs Ahsoka.
