From the movies? Yeah the movie villains didn't have much menace (no Ep 1 puns plz). From the shows? Maul in Clone Wars and Rebels is so good. I'm not discounting Manny, dude CRUSHED that role and I want more.

It’s a bit of a gray area, I’d say, as Thrawn as introduced to canon in the Disney area, though I’m well aware he came from novels. I think it counts as the new trilogy did away with a LOT of the book content that was pretty good.

I also kinda love Rampart from the Bad Batch.

Many are. I think most of the interesting villains in the Disney era have some gray area to them, redemption arcs, & so on.

I would say it isnt because its bassicly the same character (fans would have rioted if they changed him and filonie unsterstood that luckily) same goes for pellaeon this are bassicly the same characters from heir to the empire

Right, but he wasn’t canon until he appeared in Rebels. I think Filoni has been good about bringing novel characters into the canon as well as developing some pretty good original characters.

Because the question of canon was irrelevant before disney the books were canon to us fans and to the authors who keept it consistent Noone even considered that heir to the empire wasnt the natural continuation of episode 6 it just was

Yeah, but it was a matter of opinion, more than any stated fact. It’s a shame that the didn’t do Heir to the Empire as episode 7.
