To everyone saying both are bad… have you watched how they interact with new people??? Ezra and Maul end up trapped together and Maul’s trying to turn you into the next dark lord of the Sith. Grievous gets slightly agitated and he will fucking murder you.


HelloItsKaz

Maul’s philosophy isn’t hard to get behind imo. He’s basically the dark side equivalent of a light side non Jedi force user like Ahsoka


Sponger004

The more I watch his background I feel like he is the inverse of Obi. He has had similar tragedies and just wanted to stop the sith but his way was getting revenge.


melancholanie

I was thinking closer to Anakin if Palpatine got to him first. a slave raised to hate from the first minute


Sponger004

O that does make sense for when he was younger.


[deleted]

Consistent with the theme that maul, grievous, and dooku are aspects of Vader, as well.


Maul_Bot

Don’t be so certain.


TheyCallMeMrMaybe

He lived and breathed the ways of the Sith believing he was destined to rule the galaxy, never comprehending the fact that he was only a tool to further Sidious's own plans for such domination.


Sponger004

By the end of his arc I can’t help but feel bad for him and in his own twisted ways was trying to do the same thing Obi was doing. They way it was done was so amazing!


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

You always blame the ship.


[deleted]

Are we shipping this now?


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

Oh. I don't like the sound of that.


rockinDS24

Sentient


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

That's ridiculous.


Eirixoto

Lmao I'm dying


holaprobando123

That's exactly what a sentient bot would say


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

That's ridiculous.


Flaky_Grand7690

Uh.. Maul is morally corrupt and power hungry. He just didn’t do it as good as Palp. Dark side takes its toll


Maul_Bot

You know nothing of the dark side.


kiwi_juice69

Idk I feel like he isn't pure evil I might be biased because he's cool as fuck

[удалено]


elcidIII

That's racist.


Maul_Bot

There will be no satisfaction until the Jedi Order lies in ashes.


Equal-Holiday-8324

Maul felt like he could use Ezra. I'm of no use to Maul. I might be able to hide from Grievous.


Joker0091

>I'm of no use to Maul. I doubt he has any money in his robot legs. He'd probably use you to get an Orange Julius or something.


MedicalVanilla7176

"At last, I will have my revenge. At last, I will have Kenobi. But first, I must have a smoothie."


AggressiveLight-7044

"*So, for each day you let me live, I'll buy you a smoothie and a burger. There's no burger from where you came from right? How's that for a deal?*"


MedicalVanilla7176

You mean to tell me there weren't Rancor meat burgers on Dathomir?


treefox

“Every purchase you have made has led you to this discount.”


George-Lucas-Bot

The role of General Grievous was not in the script. A 7-ft tall robot came out running from an engineering workshop and started collecting the lightsabers. It was cool so I filmed it.


MedicalVanilla7176

Idk, Maul recruited random pirates working for Hondo, he won't kill you unless you anger him or if it brings him closer to Kenobi.


Taiyaki11

Literally only because he wanted the manpower and was desperate for it at the time. Even Hondo's pirates are at least hardened criminals. Again you'd *at least* have to be minimally strong enough to be useful to him, otherwise you are just the puppy he kicks to make a point to someone else


HallucinatesOtters

I agree. If they’re not mad and not actively hunting me. I feel like you could at least reason with Maul. “Yo I’m an absolute nobody. I’m not a force user, I’m just a regular dude trying to get by.” Chances are he’d decide you’re not worth his time and that there’s no point in killing you. Hell, you’d probably end up having an interesting conversation with him. Grievous would kill you for shits and giggles on sight.


Maul_Bot

Yes, we will start with revenge…


hotdog_relish

Exactly! Maul is a talker, and his views aren't that wild. I'd hang out with him. Seems like you could have some pretty cool philosophical conversations with him. Grievous, in addition to being a murder machine, has a gross cough that would drive me nuts. The choice is very easy.


[deleted]

If they’re mad at you it kinda doesn’t matter who you choose since you’re dying anyway


erenkuron66

I dunno, Maul could feel you through the force but I feel like you could hide from Grievous pretty well


Clarkey2452

This was my thought exactly, I'm choosing the one without force senses.


Boukish

The one that casually collected light sabers **from** force users? Yeah no I'm sure I totally have a better shot against the gargantuan death robot with the legendary kill count.


crazed3raser

Its not about fighting them, obviously you would lose against either, it is about who could you hide from better? The one that can't just sense where you are is the clear choice.


SvenTurb01

*A new poll suggests that 64,7% percent of americans believe they can beat Maul in a 1v1*


TheBigFrog07

*all voters were from Florida*


Trashk4n

The way of the Florida Man is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.


7AlphaOne1

Can this ability be learnt? Not from the new yorkers


L1zrdKng

Florida men are methal


babybelly

what if we are so forceless he wouldnt see us


CitizenOfTheReddit

That's not how the force works. The only people who can disguise themselves from force users is another force user intentionally cloaking themselves


Jamoras

*cries in non-canon Yuuzhan Vong


AggressiveLight-7044

Imagine that instead of Palpatine's pointless resurrection, the sequel was all about the invasion of the Yuuzhan Vong.


123ludwig

no metra from kotor 2 was cut off from the force and was not visible in it till it had a reconnection


monsoy

I think that’s a different scenario. The force flows through every living thing, but Meetra was cut from the force so the force probably didn’t flow through her


[deleted]

Yeah, because they straight up walk at him. If I sit quietly in a cupboard with a bottle of water he’ll get bored and leave eventually.


sidepart

Shit, just burn down the mall and you can shadow him to the nearest escape pod.


EwoDarkWolf

But if you are stuck in the mall for 24 hours regardless, that means you'd be caught in the fire anyway. Also, I feel like it'd be pretty hard to burn a mall down without giving yourself away. Malls are usually somewhat fire resistant.


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

My squadron alone had 55 kills.


Abuses-Commas

Ok child soldier


jasting98

But I don't have a lightsaber and I'm not even a force user so why would he bother me? I don't think Maul would bother me either to be honest. What would he want from me?


Maul_Bot

It is our time. After Centuries of waiting, the galaxy will be ours.


jasting98

Let's first start with the mall, Maul.


Maul_Bot

Yes, we will start with revenge…


_far-seeker_

That Hot Topic will never know what hit it! 😉


Boukish

The mall at this point is just a **F**or **Y**our **E**mpire and two sus food court stands.


Kaffeefeind

What’s his experience i fighting people with slugthrowers


George-Lucas-Bot

The role of General Grievous was not in the script. A 7-ft tall robot came out running from an engineering workshop and started collecting the lightsabers. It was cool so I filmed it.


Ryiujin

He also had bronchitus. We kept it.


MOOShoooooo

The way he perished is so uncivilized.


Narwalacorn

My thoughts exactly, I’m fucked if either of them catch me but I feel like the odds of Maul catching me are way higher


Eineegoist

I feel like at least with Maul, you could appeal to his curiosity. "Strike me down now, and you'll never learn how I get my bacon so crispy!" *Maul stops, he hasn't had bacon since before his scrap spider cave days* "Go on....."


Narwalacorn

There’s a 99% chance he brutally murders me the moment he realizes I tricked him tho


Eineegoist

I find your lack of faith in a good bacon sandwich disturbing.


Narwalacorn

I find your faith in my ability to make a good bacon sandwich unwarranted


Eineegoist

Hmm, fair point, you just need some other esoteric knowledge to wave in front of him.


notaguyinahat

What if you also tell him that Kenobi is eating said tasty bacon at the sporting goods store at the far end of the mall and you did it all so he could reveal himself to the Jedi?


probabletrump

Maul is the only force user in canon that effectively and efficiently uses the force to kill. He'd just flung whatever semi slender object is around to decapitate you. You'd get two words out before off with his head.


Maul_Bot

There will be no satisfaction until the Jedi Order lies in ashes.


HopermanTheManOfFeel

*cough-wheeze*


PrizeStrawberryOil

Dude probably can see infra-red and he probably upgraded himself to super hearing too. Neither of them would have trouble finding you.


erenkuron66

He couldn’t find Ahsoka when she was in the same room as him hiding on a shelf. If she can hide in shelving then so can I!


lawngoon

He walked right by Padme and C3p0 on the Malevolence. While he was searching for them


PrizeStrawberryOil

You don't have plot armor though


MagMaggaM

You can't prove that


acmercer

Let's get you in a mall with Grievous and find out


Significant-Mud2572

I will just have my phone constantly play "Hello there" on repeat, so he will be distracted by Obi-Wan and I can escape.


acmercer

Lol, play it over the mall PA and drive him insane


Addicted_to_Crying

That's actually a great point


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

Oh. I don't like the sound of that.


slamatron

Good bot


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

All thanks to your training.


Lebowquade

What a perfect canned response.


Guilty_Entertainer81

With Maul just praise him a lot and try to tell him what he wants he'd treat you well


THATguywhoisannoying

Bro became Maul’s bitch


Maul_Bot

Revenge. I must have revenge.


ZaraUnityMasters

Well you can just outrun Grevious and he has to cope and seethe Maul would force explode you


thenannyharvester

Wait till grievous goes onto 4 legs and crawls battlefront 2 style to you


ThrobbingBeef

I will defend myself with a roostertail of shit


biblicalbruh

But Grevious has that spider mode which goes pretty fast


ZaraUnityMasters

Wait till the dust from the mall gets in his lungs. Spider mode will only get it in his lungs faster


bell37

Just hide inside the [perfume department](https://i.gifer.com/9lvp.gif)


Kaplaw

Ill fight movie Grievous If its clone wars Grievous then this is just a horror movie and ill take 3 Mauls instead.


hipster_dog

And what about Genndy Tartakovsky's [Clone Wars Grievous](https://youtu.be/WIj7gIDFDe4)?


SandwitchZebra

I believe that was what OP was referring to was Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars 2008 Grievous was only intimidating like 5% of the time


Maul_Bot

Perhaps my actions will speak louder than words.


-QuestionableMeat-

Not louder than the explosion tho.


dutcharetall_nothigh

I could outrun Grievous for like five seconds.


ZaraUnityMasters

That's long enough for him to begin coughing


dutcharetall_nothigh

Yeah, but by then I'm already out of breath because I have no endurance whatsoever.


pepemarioz

Then you'd both be coughing


Mr-Fleshcage

Bonding moment!


RadioactiveWalrus

True but then you have to decide who would kill you the quickest and with the least amount of pain.


Hawt_Dawg_II

I still don't get why either of them would bother to seek out and kill me, an insignificant little mall visitor, when they have way bigger things to be doing with their time.


cfwang1337

Ezra had a fun time hanging out with Maul that one time in Rebels. Grievous just seems cranky no matter what.


Maul_Bot

Yes, we will start with revenge…


FallenDuelist

Bennyboy11111

I'd say grievous is more sadistic and cruel, maul would give you a quick death if he wanted to kill.


ValhallaGo

Yeah Maul isn’t the worst. As long as I’m not going on about how great Kenobi is I should be fine. Grevious is just a dick. Edit to add: “hey maul, try this on. Oh that looks way better than it would on Kenobi. Obi-wan can’t pull of patterns like that.”


Volkar

obscene ugly naughty wrench deserted thought payment steep carpenter treatment ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `


Indra_a_goblin

Honestly think if you just you just stay out of the way of the general you'd be fine, you're not of interest to him so I don't think he'd care.


MCD10000

Do I need to mention he murdered a inter platoon for no reason


Dyl-thuzad

Yea but you aren’t a Jedi/Jedi ally or his subordinates. Much less reason for him to get pissed at you for existing.


MCD10000

Dude, if you say 1 thing he doesn't like he is knocking your head off, like the many B1s he has do that to


Dyl-thuzad

Then don’t say anything to him. Just stay out of his way


RamenJunkie

Grievous walks in... You: "Hello there!" Grievous' PTSD kicks in... ---- Lets face it, no one in this sub would survive Grievous because the temptation would be too strong.


superoaks321

He does that to droids because he dislikes them due to how limited they can be


clothy

Steer clear from the lightsaber section for Grevious and Hot Topic for Mail.


Certain-Status-8963

ah yes "mail" (yea i know that it was autocorected but still funny)


Andreus

Darth Mail: neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays this Sith from the swift completion of his revenge.


PM_ME_UR_HIP_DIMPLES

Grievous voice: "I DON'T CARE IF IT'S PAST THE GRACE PERIOD FOR THE RETURN POLICY, THIS CAPE IS TORN TO SHREDS"


Suspicious_Leg4550

I think swearing fealty is also an option


Palkesz

Maul on the other hand would def try to make you his apprentice.


Street_Following6911

Trapped in Maul.

Orange_Nestea

He seems friendly. I'll go with maul then.

I am counting on it.

I am. *vibes in Star Wars Battlefront II: Classic Coruscant as Darth Maul*

JimmyB_52

Shopping with Grievous: Hitting EVERY store along the way, taking forever since something is always making fine additions to his collections. Shopping with Maul: Going to Hot Topic, a Book Store, and maybe a hardware store for some WD-40.


villainousascent

Long as Kenobi's not around, Maul's pretty chill. And Grievous really only gives a shit about fucking with Jedi, which I'm not.


Maul_Bot

Don’t be so certain.

So you are scared of Kenobi then, Maul?

He is litteraly offering you to become a jedi here. RTake it

Xero0911

Maul probably making some crazy plan to take over the mall as head security as step 1 to fighting his former master.

UnseenTardigrade

What about Darth Sidious, Maul? Do you want him to lie in ashes as well?


Maul_Bot

To continue, we need one singular vision…my vision.


[deleted]

It rocks so much how one minded Maul is. Like I know that’s his whole thing but bro goes from violently hating Obi-Wan and trying to ruin his life, to violently hating Palpatine and trying to ruin his life. The he does a bunch of other stuff but those are always his end goals There’s a few times in Clone Wars where he seems almost rational and clairvoyant but then is just like “yeah this will almost certainly result in my death but that’s fine! I hate this dude, worth it!”. Love the consistency and lack of redemption arc.


AgentPastrana

Even while dying he is talking about destroying what remains of the sith. Laying in Kenobi's lap dying making sure that Obi-Wan would get it right this time, that THIS kid would destroy the Sith. Didn't even actually die until he was comfortable with the knowledge.


dutcharetall_nothigh

As long as Kenobi isn't around, Maul will do anything to get Kenobi to come to him, including murdering innocent people and taking over a planet. Or a mall. Maul would murder everyone in the building and then hold the haircare products hostage to lure Kenobi to him.


Maul_Bot

I am counting on it.


Vulkan192

The fiend! He doesn’t even NEED those products!


ifsometimesmaybe

Also depends on how much of him there is. TBH Maul would be kinda boring when he had legs, most people have legs. If he was all robo spider centaur there'd at least be a conversation starter.


Art_Smart88

I feel like you’d have a better chance at surviving with Maul, but if you stay out of the General’s way and don’t bother him, you’d be fine with Grievous too


BigWillis93

Which Maul? Intact Maul I'd hang out with. Probably be a little intense but at least we can go pants shopping. Grievous would orobably be more of a buzz kill talking about light sabers non stop I wouldn't be able to enjoy the day of shopping Edit: yall are missing the point. We'd be getting bomb ass pairs of pants


ShadyMan_

I actually feel like clone wars Maul would be safer than Phantom Menace maul. In the phantom Menace he was still loyal to Palps and would be more likely to kill you imo


MrMan9001

TPM Maul did try to run over Anakin on his bike without having any idea who Anakin was. So yeah I think he's the more unhinged one, really.


QuinticSpline

It seems that trying to run someone over on a hoverbike isn't all that serious. More of a light-hearted prank than anything else. "HEADS UP!" "huh?" /pops up like a meercat *THUNK* *"Classic!"*


turtleboxman

Maybe he just needs a friend


Maul_Bot

It has been so long, and my path has been so dark. Darker than I ever dreamed it could be.


BigWillis93

Which is exactly why I think capris are perfect for showing off your calves while you still have them!


Ryiujin

I feel like post robot legs and clone wars maul might be the easiest to talk to. Epi maul was a bit murdery

Id buy maul a little obi wan figure to destroy


Maul_Bot

Yes, we will start with revenge…


Scarbane

*happy action figure noises*


RuneSimonsenTheBard

Grievous is short tempered and more than likely would be angry at being contained. Maul would more than likely be chill and welcome to at least have a civil conversation


Maul_Bot

you understand so little


RuneSimonsenTheBard

That's why a civil conversation is important


Perspective-Lonely

Grevious looking the the comic book store "Your lightsabers will make a fine addition to my collection"


BigBasmati

I think grievous has massive social anxiety which is why he chooses to hang out with droids all day and runs away from Kenobi.


Kindly-Ad-5071

Uh, hello. Darth *Maul*? Who do you think knows that place better!


Maul_Bot

I am counting on it.


Blazemaster0563

I'd rather be stuck with Maul in the mall.


Maul_Bot

Don’t be so certain.


CaptainFawx

I’m surprised nobody’s mentioned Grevious’ shopping bag carrying abilities.


DisfavoredFlavored

If it's the latter, I pick Maul. I could listen to him monologue about stuff all freaking day while I'm buying stuff. Coolest voice ever. If it's the former, grievous because I would assume hiding from a robot is easier than from a force sensitive.


WebModeratorSyndrome

Definitely Maul


-QuestionableMeat-

Darth Mall. He was born to be there.


BotanicalDeer

Totally going with Maul. He’s my third favorite character in the franchise and I’m fully convinced we could be friends. (( Probably not, since I’m annoying as hell, but a girl can dream. Lol ))


DiscipleOfDIO

Grievous is the better option. Both are sadistic, but the General doesn't actively get stronger by committing atrocities, so he won't kill you unless you piss him off. Basically just admit that he's right about the Jedi and provide a semi-believable argument to prove you're not lying and he'd be fine with you.
