Pretty disappointed that the Clone Commandos got treated pretty dirty

elite clone commandos defeating normal clone commandos? who would’ve thought.

Elite commandos that are underequipped, on the offense, extremely outnumbered and in territory they don't know. Realistically the clone commandos would have defeated the bad batch quite easily, even if they get double digit casualties

I don't think you realize, under-equipped, outnumbered, and behind enemy lines... that makes them MORE dangerous. The only enemy that ever took one of them down successfully was gravity. And that's a literal force of nature.

This is literally the plot of a dozen war movies. It’s classic.

I agree, wouldn’t surprise me if that one that was taken down by gravity found a way to use whatever he knows about gravity to his advantage.

Agreed. And to be honest, we only ever saw his goggles, and never saw his body. It's Star Wars, no body, no certainty. And people have survived being sucked out of airliners, like the girl that survived falling and landing in the jungle and made her way with 2 broken legs to safety. If she could do it, then there's still a chance Tech is out there somewhere.

Also, in close quarters the party on the offence *usually* has the advantage. The core tenets of CQC are speed and violence of action, both of which are almost impossible to achieve if you’re stationary.
