really makes u realize just HOW OP the characters from the prequels/clone wars truly were. maul, grievous, anakin, obi wan, windu, yoda, dooku etc. would all wipe the floor with the ghost crew in less than 30 seconds. truly an age of legends and monsters.
@@thahoule7924 They were warriors who knew nothing in their lives but war. Of course they would wipe the floor with those peasants. In Rebels, you see that Ezra and Kanan aren't warriors but peacekeepers. I like that aspect a lot, but I really miss the OP-ness of Anakin and co having massive lightsaber skills. It was fun to watch those epic fights. In rebels it's like watching one of the sequel star wars films: just a couple of kids using lightsabers like a baseball bat...
The main cast in most things Star Wars always has obvious plot armor. I think this crew is pretty safe. However, as Zeb appears to be getting less character development this season, if I'd have to make an educated guess, I'd say he might be dead at some point before the end of the season.
Ultimaton100 come on. There's no way any of them are going to die. Maul took a cheap shot at kanan and now he's blind. But it's ok because now he's daredevil. The clone wars killed off many important characters, main characters. I don't see rebels doing the same
yah and the first time rex says that maul beats the crap out of him and all the rebel crue including blind kanan and ezra because of course they are no match for the sith loard
lol well at least I don't sit in my chair all day just giving people order like some fat king I could easily just make a star killer clone or get Maul to join me then I will beat you skinny old as* up.
@@caseypitt1296 ...you want to put that theory up to the test with the Mandalorians in The Clone Wars? Lightsabers don't seem to have a problem cutting then. Besides, it's beskar specifically which is resistant to lightsabers, which as has been stated was exceedingly rare. As far as I'm aware, Din is about the only one with a full suit of it.
@@zazi5305 in the Clone Wars, the only times Ive seen a Mandolorian getting struck by a lightsaber was in the neck, which is usually exposed. Besides, Sabine's armour has shown a tolerance to laser blasts anyway.
My favorite parts of this show is when the Rebels get their asses handed to them by the antagonists. Its like therapy after watching them have plot armor for the whole show’s runtime
Luke Solo The most badass. He fought solo the three inquisitors in Malachor. Also note how the inquisitors need a rotation disc in their blade to make the blade spin while Maul just does it no problem the old school way.
Ballsy, but they seriously shouldn't have thought they could take on a Sith Lord - even if out of official practice a long time - and not get smacked around.
Maul is one of those villains that, even if he loses every time, is still terrifying and completely convinces you he could succeed. It’s only because if any of his plots succeeded, they would demolish the order of things, that he never does. Negative plot armor.
wtf? he doesn't lose every time. The only time he actually lost fairly was against sidious. Rebels was just him extremely exhausted and insane and being outsmarted by Kenobi.
He don't lose all time, he killed Qui-Gon, he beaten some random jedi foes, he defeated Savage, same with Obi-Wan repeteadly, as well with Pre-Vizla, against The three Inquisitors, with Grievous, and Ahsoka
@@sorjonen8358 he fails all his projects. The lost to tpm kenobi, he lost to kenobi in a 2v1 in rivival, he lost against ahsoka, he lost against, Kanan, he lost against old Ben, he lost against grievous on zenbar, he got humiliated by Sidious, he got badly out manoeuvred and would have died to the fin etray. He managed to kill qui gon, make a beat up and mentally not ready kenobi retreat, even though he got shit on prior to using dun moch, he managed to overpower a non full out savage with a massive knowledge advantage, he kicked aayla secura once.
@@7632ios why the fuck did you watch the duel between Maul and Ahsoka, Maul wasn’t going to kill her throughout the entire duel, he could have killed her twice, but he wanted to lure her to his side
Hera: Alright look. Maul can easily deflect lasers with his lightsaber. So the plan is we shoot lasers at him while he has his lightsaber. Sabine: Wow that's brilliant. Zeb: Yeah this is why you're in charge.
I prefer Maul in Clone Wars better, he is much more threatening, more calculating, and has a deadly vibe coming off him. I understand that Sam Witwer is trying to develop the character by adding to his psychotic rage, but it is slightly harder to take Maul in Rebels seriously.
Orges Berisha To me he seems a lot more manipulative and smarter and I like that, it's okay if we differ in opinions because we have the right to do so, so I don't want to start any fights, you like what you like and I like what I like
Coolguyz03 - Minecraft and More Mate what are you talking about. I ain't pissed. It's ok to give your opinion, I won't get offended. And I can agree the Rebels version of Maul has more complex characterisation and motivations. I'm MY opinion Clone Wars Maul is more sinister, threatening, and cool. But some say he wants what every Sith wants, build an empire and take over. I would agree with and understand why you like Rebels Maul. He is more intellectual and manipulative, but more, has a very compelling goal, and is more human, more relatable: he wants hope. He wants his life to mean something, and that takes his character in a more interesting discussion. Don't worry about voicing your opinion, all of this Star Wars stuff is up for discussion. Maul is honestly one of my most favourite characters throughout Star Wars fiction.
Matthew Godwin You know he is a total badass when after killing an Inquisitor he says "what kind of noob bullshit is this auto-spin function" and just rebuilds it on the old school fashion.
Sabine...did you just try and attack Maul at close range? Had you been an actual mandalorian and had a vibrosword i might have understood you attacking him at close range but...you're not, so it was just dumb
@@Jaeden_Phoenix So that begs the question, the plot conveniently has his legs and boxes be magnetized but not anything else? Citadel in The Clone Wars also show blasters and lightsabers being magnetized away
okay so lets rush a sith lord who: -survived order 66 -took over mandalore -took over the death watch -survived a fight with Darth Sidious -was cut in half but survived -force sensitive -killed a Jedi Master -can throw his saber
-Order 66 was only meant to kill Jedi, Maul was never a Jedi -Sidious was just playing with him, wasn't even trying to kill Maul -This point is unnecessary, A Sith lord who isn't force sensitive is ridiculous -Not just 1 Master, he killed several Jedi throughout his life, including Younglings, Jedi Knights and Jedi Masters
@@creativename3707 well in the last 2 episodes the clones literally go to kill Darth Maul, so yeah he did survive order 66. Surviving a fight with Sidious, even if Sidious wasn’t trying to kill him, is still impressive, but I do see your point there. Agree with the Force Sensitive part though…
I love that maul just beat the rebels characters like it was children when was fighting. They have no clue what kind of sith lord he is because they think he's just a regular criminal in the galaxy lol
Yea that has always been a really stupid TV and movie trope, kinda makes you wonder why anyone in movies ever bothers trying to hack anything, just shoot it and chances are whatever it does will happen.
I love how they thought they could defeat a guy who took on and survived and destroyed a Ventnor class stardestroyer filled to the brim with clones... without a lightsaber
Makes for a funny moment and all, but wouldn’t Maul know he can’t open it and just not even try? Like, he’d go back the the room he has the crew in and just hold it and continue conversation with them? I guess they needed a way for the crew to free themselves, which only lead to them getting re-captured, but still.
Did they really think that strategy would work? They just gave him the high ground and expected him to be at a disadvantage! Have they not heard the Tragedy of Anakin Skywalker?
I guess I’ll be one of the few people to say that the magnetize idea was actually pretty clever for three people stuck on a metal box hurtling through hyperspace with Darth Mail aboard.
1:18 Alright, what the fuck was the plan here? Charging a dude that only has a VERY DANGEROUS melee weapon when you have both the advantage of having a range weapon and being afar from him, wow great move, I can see how the Mandalorian's home world lost to the fucking Empire.
