Hunter's Helmet has obvious ties to future Stormtrooper Helmets indicating that Stormtrooper Armor is actually an improvement over Phase II Armor (However the Empire may have cut corners while the Republic would have made the armor a bit more durable while maintaining the Blast dispersive properties and general design).
we already knew that. The original battlefront II tells the story, from the point of the 501st of how the clones were the first stormtroopers of the empire and how they were phased out by different clones and normal people, espeically after the Kaminoans made the anti-troopers.
They all seem to be wearing personalized KATARN class Commando Armor. Without Energy Shields (Might be too expensive to equip all Commandos with regenerative Shields). That or Delta Squad never actually used Energy Shields and that was simply a game mechanic.
Bad Batch truly represents what all the clones could be; and become. The Kaminoans have truly regressed in their pride for their cloning techniques as if they implied these beneficial mutations to all their clones @ their facilities; the clone army and the republic; even the Empire; would be a true Supreme Power
True. But the Bad Batch had unintended mutations that likely couldn't be duplicated without severe risk to the entire "crop". The Kaminoans were paid to create the best standardized infantry in the Galaxy as opposed to creating Genetically Augmented Super Soldiers. In fact the Kaminoans often killed and recycled Clones that exhibited any mutations good or bad (That is until Shaak Ti was assigned to Kamino and put and end to that.) 99's Sacrifice may have also contributed to the Kaminoan allowance for "Desirable mutations".
@@petercarioscia9189 I’m not so sure about that. The TIE fighter and vehicles like that came from a quantitative approach to domination and presence. Super-clones would have meant fewer clones. That would potentially fit with elite and specialized units, but one would have to wonder at the cost to do that on any meaningful scale. To do it on purpose might, for example cost 100x as much to get 1/10th the number. I’d imagine it just didn’t scale or make sense for their doctrine.
MetaNerdz: "Tech was not very much of a fighter, although capable often relied more heavily on his squad mates" Meanwhile Techin season 2 of BB: *Casually solos a LAAT with a mounted repeating blaster*
The Bad Batch have quickly become my favorite group of clones! Would love to see more videos highlight them since we have the first season of their show already and season 2 coming up (hopefully). Their show is one of the best!
I'll be curious to see if the Bad Batch play any part in order 66. It would be cool to see for example if their genetic modifications lead to them being able to resist the inhibitor chips. They did seem to be more independent than the average clone.
Im really excited for this new season, the entire episode felt like a level of clone commando. It would be even cooler to see a member of Delta squad interact with these commandos
Well done if you are wondering the clone commandos were featured in an earlier season seasons 1-5 that's why the armor looks familiar. Tech might be my favorite in this squad
Clone Commandos first appeared in Season 3, recovering the bodies of Savage Opress' first Jedi victims, and then later with Clone Commando Gregor from the D-Squad Arc.
I love the small little details they put into the Bad Batch, I really like these Clone Commandos they are pretty unique and it’s a shame this will probably be the only arc we see them in.
Same, I remember way back hearing how the original creator saying how they wanted to make like 10 season or more of the show. There were concept art showing how they wanted to have a Vong scout ship in future episode to hint about them coming, I'm guessing that not going to happen now because they Nuke the EU. After they were sold to Disney they sort of had to rush to finish stuff. This season was from what the uncompleted episode. I don't know if they are going to continue the show or stop at this season.
I really like the bad batch cuz I've always wondered what would happen if superhumans we're apart of Star Wars and this answered my question they fit right in like anything else.
Its interesting how commando units are always in squad of 4 deltas has 4 members and bad batch has 4 members and both have 100% success rates that we know of
When he describe them at the end I'm kind of getting some team fortress 2 vibes you know what I mean wrecker the heavy: crosshairs the sniper: tech the engineer or most possibly the medic: Hunter possibly the scout or the soldier or spy even since he's good with a knife 7:39
And don’t forget Echo when he was captured he was sent to the techno union home world becoming a cybernetic human as a little science experiment of minister of the techno union Wat Tambor
I really want to see the AT-FRC you covered awhile back show up in this season..... Out of all the bi-ped walkers in star wars the AT-FRC is the coolest.
It honestly just sucks that disney isn't releasing all episodes at once. Or at least one story-arc at once. They just wan't people to pay for disney+ for longer under the pretext of being child-friendly by not supporting binge-watching.
Oh my god, I missed you guys so much, and the final season is what rang me back to Star Wars, I hadn't really been into it until the hype for s7 started
Imagine if the Empire enlisted these clones instead of storm troopers these guys could hunt Jedi all on their own and of they were paired up with their inquisitors they would be a force to be reckoned with
If the Cloners Chose to they could have made a unique clone with all of the "Bad Batches" Genetic Modifications while making the lifespan 1.5X that of Fett's had he of died of old age instead of decapitation by Windu(F.Y.I. that's my Clone O.C.).
Wish they went with the 2 full seasons they already wrote cause u can never have too much clone wars. Never watched the unfinished versions didnt make sense to watch them in that state. Nice to see the arc trooper alive and captured arc. Seen that in other stuff
Dang, I missed this when watching Clone Wars: Season 7, but it's still relevant for the new Bad Batch show. Very interesting analysis of their armament. Thanks!
Hi, I think especially Hunter is a reference / resembles a lot Solid Snake from the Metal Gear solid video game franchise. There are numerous parallels: - both are clones (I know, nothing special in a clone army) - the donor in both cases was the best warrior known - both has been genetically enhanced to be better soldiers - the looks: the hair styl and the bandana from Hunter is famous for solid snake. even the face seems to resemble a lot of solid snake but still being similar the clones / Jango Fett - Hunter is also a code name of solid snake in one of the games - Being a leader of some kind - Maybe even mindset wise, knowing being different from the rest
I really enjoyed this episode, but I was annoyed by the higher-than-normal incompetence of the droids. How is it possible to miss like 5 shots at point blank range?
My favorite Bad Batch members are Crosshairs & Tech. I was hoping Wrecker would’ve been equipped with a blaster cannon similar to Baze Malbus in Rouge One along with maybe a DC-15s/DC-15a as maybe his sidearm.
Bruh my recommended is blowing up over the clone wars season seven so I'm trying to get through all 6 of the seasons as fast I can I started yesterday and I'm on too season 3 today.
This might sound random. But coincidentally, I have a fan-fic team that are alot like the Bad Batch Team (Well, 3 members instead of 4. And one of them are a hybrid of 2 of them. Specifically Crosshair & Tech)
id like to know why tech wears glasses was his eyesight changed by his mutations or does it provide him some form of enhance vision via virtural reality or a hud?
So let me get this straight... these guys are basically MK2 Republic commandos... I don’t know weather I should be happy that we get a spiritual successor or sad that the deltas are probably never going to be seen again

I loved the fact we got to see the Republic Commando rifle in action
It was seen before in the D-Squad arc, with Clone Commando Gregor.
@@S-N7 Oh right, I totally forgot about Gregor
Ser-N7-Specialist I was about to say.
Dc-17 for the win
DC-17M B)
The longest recorded sniper kill shot is 3,5 km and Crosshair can shoot from 10 km. That distance is just mind-blowing even with future technology.
MetaNerdz: "Tech was not very much of a fighter, although capable often relied more heavily on his squad mates"
Meanwhile Techin season 2 of BB: *Casually solos a LAAT with a mounted repeating blaster*
"That's Tech. He can fill your head for hours with useless information."
Tech is the most relatable character in the whole show
Oh, so like me?
Nerds in a Nutshell :
The Bad Batch have quickly become my favorite group of clones! Would love to see more videos highlight them since we have the first season of their show already and season 2 coming up (hopefully). Their show is one of the best!
I like how they have some of the same personality traits as the members from delta squad

But would they would resist they were 100 percent loyal like all the clones to the republic
@@nfldend501 Well, seeing as some clones had their inhibitor chips removed, it's possible that they could also "defect" once Order 66 is issued.
oh they will
Bro you spoiled Bad Batch the series
spoiler: don't read futther if you havn't seen it.
The bad batch minus crosshair disoobeyed 66 and carved out their own life...
Personally I rate it at 1409 out of 99
LOL
Crosshair would make an awesome Bounty Hunter I think.
THE CAVALRY HAS ARRIVED!!
There’s no music in the outpost scene, presumably because it shows how simple and easy it is for the clones
i was in love with that detail
I like how Hunter is just Dee Bradley Baker, but whispering. That’s it, no accent, just whispering
ItsJustVirgil Hunter has an accent though...
Whatever Yoda that’s cause it’s dee bradly bakers accent
The Bad Batch do also give off some A-Team vibes as well. Maybe Tech was based off someone from that team.
I love the new sound design for the pistols
God every time I see a DC-17M it just makes me unreasonably happy.
Hunter is the type of guy that brings a knife to a gun fight. I’m surprised we didn’t see recker just going around punching droids.
He does in later episodes
Btw a klick isn’t just Star Wars terminology, it is actually military terminology for roughly a kilometer depending on the map
I like that part where wrecker destroyed Tambor’s little science experiment
Im really excited for this new season, the entire episode felt like a level of clone commando. It would be even cooler to see a member of Delta squad interact with these commandos
I think they are less crazy as the Null ARC's. :3
Well done if you are wondering the clone commandos were featured in an earlier season seasons 1-5 that's why the armor looks familiar. Tech might be my favorite in this squad
Clone Commandos first appeared in Season 3, recovering the bodies of Savage Opress' first Jedi victims, and then later with Clone Commando Gregor from the D-Squad Arc.
I'm mostly like Tech. And to some extant Wrecker. But my favorite of the group is Hunter. Crosshair is my least favorite lol.
3 hearts on all 3 of your comments? I'm jealous.
Crosshair is like a bad atempt at remaking sev
Jaumenyc crosshair is alright but 100% agree
@@almondpotato9483 I was early to the video... I assumed that my comments were more visible without the usual clutter.
@@nicobermudez1244
This is how i feel about the entire squad
I'm not sure why but when I first saw the Bad Batch, I thought Star Wars version of Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles.
TMNT but mikey's an emo (crosshair)
I thought of Wrecker as The Heavy from Team Fortress 2
There helmets look cool
Imagine trying to sneak a fart while hunter is in the room
Leia bun attachments...
amazing
I was never a fan of CF 99 but they're undeniably cool

The Bad Batch, the "how many cliche can we fit in" clone unit.
99 was never rejected because even though they're all clones, all of them look slightly different and all have a unique personality.
I'll never understand why droids and clones charge at each other when most of them dont have melee weapons
I really like the bad batch cuz I've always wondered what would happen if superhumans we're apart of Star Wars and this answered my question they fit right in like anything else.
THE CAVALRY HAS ARRIVED ... AND MetaNerdz MADE ANOTHER GREAT VID 👍
Its interesting how commando units are always in squad of 4 deltas has 4 members and bad batch has 4 members and both have 100% success rates that we know of
We need a Bad Batch video game. About this mission, their earlier missions, their mission on Kashyyyk with Yoda, and their mission during Order 66
With EA still having the Star Wars license, I really want to see Battlefront: Bad Batch in the same tune of Battlefield: Bad Company.
Just imagine how awesome it would have been if these guys participated in the siege of Mandalore.
When he describe them at the end I'm kind of getting some team fortress 2 vibes you know what I mean wrecker the heavy: crosshairs the sniper: tech the engineer or most possibly the medic: Hunter possibly the scout or the soldier or spy even since he's good with a knife 7:39
At least it's a nice reference.
Anyone think that 99 might have been a supposed "Bad Batch" member? Except his modifications ended up with him as a maintenance clone...
CF 99 pic of padme was hilarious
tech = your dads hairline but your computer skills lmao
I wanna know their story after order 66
I really hope they are independent enough to defect and disobey order 66. I dont want them to become more slaves in the imperial army
DANIEL GARBER I think scar squadron is based off of them
Cyber Flame they kinda are
Oh do I have good news for you
Shenron: Your wish is granted.
Crosshair reminds me alot of Jun from Halo Reach.
With the Bad Batch getting their own series, I'm looking forward to more content like this :D
And don’t forget Echo when he was captured he was sent to the techno union home world becoming a cybernetic human as a little science experiment of minister of the techno union Wat Tambor

When he kicks the blast door he says “BOOM!” You take too long
Sergeant Hunter is Johnny Rambo, Wrecker is Bruce Banner a.k.a. the Hulk, Crosshair is Clint Eastwood, Tech and Corporal Echo
Oh my god, I missed you guys so much, and the final season is what rang me back to Star Wars, I hadn't really been into it until the hype for s7 started
“10 Klicks” isn’t just “Star Wars talk.” It is used irl by many militaries. Including the US.

Imagine if the Empire enlisted these clones instead of storm troopers these guys could hunt Jedi all on their own and of they were paired up with their inquisitors they would be a force to be reckoned with
The DC-17 blaster pistol sounds were remade. They sound pretty sick and powerful
the reason clone force 99 armour is similar to clone camando armour is because clone force 99 is a clone camando squad
I am so glad they gave the heavy from team fortress 2 a role in the clone wars

Why?
The DC-17M is also modular in Battlefront 2 (2017) which does canonize it. (Unless Lucas film said otherwise in which case disregard this comment)
tech is not based on a generic tech dude, he is clearly based on a mix of steve jobs and mark zucc :3

EA should make a bad batch skin for the commandos in battlefront 2.
*THE BOYS ARE BACK*
would also make awesome Lego mini-figs.
Imagine a Grand Army of the Republic with a few hundred of these four man Raider/Force Recon teams.
They atarted with 10.000 of thrm divided in 2.500 teams but they were used as line infantry and half if them died in the battle of geonosia.
These guys should be a part of Battlefront.
Isaac Kim like a battlefront edition of search and destroy

You should make a second part after the bad batch ends.
Hunter is definitely the Rambo Clone lol RIP 99 you didn't carry a blaster but fought with a heart bigger than the gorog. A true soldier in every way
Would have preferred to see the Null-class instead or a version of them 👍
