S7 Ahsoka might be above Savage, but Maul and Ahsoka would still die to Sidious. Maybe Maul just lied about that to turn Ahsoka. There is also no timeframe. Maybe Maul wanted to train Ahsoka first similar to how in ESB Vader wanted to train Luke before taking on Sidious.
We also don't know if Maul referred to a combat scenario. There are other ways to eliminate Sidious and considering the context (Maul said that the jedi can't stop Sidious), i don't think he referred to a direct fight as all the jedi together would anihilate Sidious.
Yeah, S07 Maul+Ahsoka wouldn't have been anymore effective against Palpatine than Maul+Savage were -- that is to say: not very effective at all. Surely Maul recognized this, given the buttf*cking Palpatine gave he and Savage.
So unless Maul was being extra arrogant/douchey, I can only assume that he was referring to future-tense(ie. after training Ahsoka or somesuch.) /shrug

Probably was delusional. Maul never really seemed quite the same mentally after his revival.
Originally posted by SheevAhsoka did fairly well against a prime Vader who was trying to killer and last week somebody shown me that Vader was ranked higher than Sids in sabers. So adding Maul to help Ahsoka seem like a win.
Maul and Savage were already beaten by Sidious "easily" in TCW, but you think swapping out Savage for Ahsoka would allow them to win?lmao, gtfo.
Filoni doesnt laugh at the idea:
^ 2:10-2:20
But yeah Vader/Anakin seems like a more realistic goal.
That said, if these two permanently teamed up and like trained/sparred each other every day, then it could have been a different story 5/10 years down the line.

Probably this. For what its worth Dooku was confident once Savage was Maul level he could defeat Sidious as well.

This is season 7 ahsoka. The one who faced vader was "vastly" more skilled.
And imagine how much greater she would have been if she had a competitive sparring partner that whole time ?
Look This is no different to when Dooku wanted AOTC Kenobi to join him in defeating Sidious. Didnt mean they had to challenge him the next day.
