The Most DEADLY & Terrifying Stromtrooper Types In Star Wars

[@timbarry2743]

The red-armored Sith stormtroopers were the culmination of Darth Sidious' vision of the perfect soldier: a living extension of the Emperor's will. In its ultimate push toward galactic conquest, the First Order readied the army of Sith troopers, whose existence was unknown even to most within the regime.

[@timbarry2743]

@Last Son of Krapton googled Sith Trooper & just cut / paste that info lol…

[@SPCBRAWLERZ]

The Dark troopers phase zero were my favorite and still one of favorite soldier designs of the empire when I saw them in SWBFII (2005)

[@Joseph__Leonard]

They were amazing to play as!

[@lucasball5336]

I have a legendary story of a dark trooper in BFII. Was playing the campaign and got to fighting on the moon base level, but was having an insanely difficult time capturing a zone midway through the game. This lasts till there's only a couple minutes left on the timer and I am literally the last trooper alive; but I was a Dark Trooper. Jumping around, blasting everything as if my life depended on it, I managed to kill the entire Rebel army down to the last man, take the objective, which secured reinforcements who went on to secure the rest of the mission with 0 further casualties. Went from Lieutenant to General that day. Dark Trooper FTW

[@matthiasneidenberger9471]

The shadow troopers are one of my personal favorite variants and I wish they were utilized in the movies.

[@the-western-renegade1478]

They are you just can't see them.

[@matthiasneidenberger9471]

@@the-western-renegade1478 you just blew my mind.

[@ejrodriguez2656]

The Shadow Troopers have been my favorite type of Storm Troopers since I read out about them. I can see Shadow Troopers being used as guard detail but with their cloaking devices activated. But what catches my eye about the Death Troopers are the arc blasters and what they can do to an enemy, to me, its like artificial Force Lightning at one's finger tips.

[@jotheunissen9274]

Rumour has it there are even legendary Stormtroopers who can actually aim

[@jotheunissen9274]

@Homer Trust me, I know And I fully realise that Stormtroopers just can't shoot plot armour

[@jotheunissen9274]

@Homer Of course in-universe it is explained that the Stormtroopers on the Death Star were ordered to purposely miss them so Luke and friends could escape to the Rebel Base and the Empire could track them But we all know it's just that they can't shoot the protagonists, happens in every movie

[@ImprovedCameraman]

The stormtroopers helmet 👀 and the E-11 for small spaces like in the hallways in the intro in ep 4

[@TKnHappyNess]

More legendary if they can hit targets

[@jotheunissen9274]

@@ImprovedCameraman Another explanation There's a scene in Rebels where Rex has a Stormtrooper helmet on as disguise and he can't shoot Then he throws the helmet away and hits every mark

[@DMBLaan]

If I had to pick, unless faced with a specific situation, I'd have either Nova Troopers or Death Troopers with me.

[@blackbird4787]

Same

[@jpmountaingaming5681]

Deathtroopers for me. Basically having the Star Wars equivalent of navy seals guard me would be epic.

[@venkelos6996]

There are times I wish they had done a better job reflecting that Stormtroopers were elites, and that there were soldiers beneath them; I've had a number of instances, DMing Star Wars RPG, where I've had to explain that the white-clad soldiers were not rank and file, or the typical trooper you'd see on any street corner. Saying that, I often enjoyed the flexibility of the Trooper Corps, when wd got to see such elite variants of the elites. One of my own personal favorites, from Legends, is the Spacetrooper; an advanced Stormtrooper basically wearing a tank. They could probably stand on the exterior of a ship, and serve as impromptu weapons emplacements, like some of the more powerful Destroyers, from the Clone Wars era, but really they could fly over to a capital ship, mag-attach to its hull, blast through, board, and kill anything inside. Their game stats were superior, in several ways, to a TIE fighter, and they were pretty powerful.

[@kingtommy4394]

I prefer a combined arms squad of Death Troopers, and Shadow Troopers. Just equip DTs with Cloaking devices and I can have an ultimate Death Squad of Hitmen under my command.

[@Bigcat726]

Death Troopers are my favorite troopers from the Empire

[@TheJedaiHero9000]

The Death Troopers we saw on Scarif are one of my Most Definite favorites Really been enjoying your content here throughout this year and I'm looking forward towards more in 2023 Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year, The Stupendous Wave

[@americanspartan2420]

I'd love to so more action from death troopers, shadow troopers, and nova troopers. The fact we never see them, let alone doing there job leaves them as mysteries as how effective they truly are or how they actually operate

[@devinjohnston4999]

I prefer the death troopers loyalty is what really matters. So Long as have the authority always server and protect you

[@terrencejenkins2322]

Death Troopers are hands down my favourite

[@ShadowWolfRising]

I remember a PC Strategy game had a special type of Storm Trooper that were Force Sensitive and could make at least minor use of The Force.

[@Darknesss490]

I think storm commandos deserve 1st place in such list.

[@ArchonOfDoom]

I actually hoped for the Purge Troopers.

[@indianajones4321]

Specialized stormtroopers are epic

[@michaelverdon7252]

Great video on the types of stormtroopers and one thing I wonder about is howcome death troopers don’t show up in the original trilogy I know the obvious answer would be because they weren’t thought of at the time but that still makes me wonder about it because I feel like Star Wars can and should be a lot better than it currently is

[@Just_Pele]

If I was a Moff, which would I trust with my life? None of them. I'd hire high-quality bounty hunters, like the Hutts did. Look how effectively even middling-quality bounty hunters chew through just about all of these types of troopers.

[@markwaldron8954]

Moff Gideon: "We have Dark Troopers." Boba: "We have a Krrsantan."

[@Just_Pele]

@@markwaldron8954 Facts. I'll take Black Krrsantan, Cad Bane, Din Jarrin, and every other Mando I can find. If they don't kill each other (gotta keep an eye on Bane), I know they'll kill anything coming after me. Also, they HAVE to be cheaper than even just a platoon of Dark Troopers. I'd fill out the rest of my security with regular Stormtroopers, just to have raw numbers.

[@ChristianNationalist654]

@@Just_Pele Tbh I would probably just stick with Death Troopers.

[@Dire_Pack]

​@@Just_Peleyeah... Lets hire the most elite and expensive bounty hunters for guarding purposes... Good idea... Also, Dark Troopers would make short work of all 3. Mando struggled with just one, Boba is old and wouldn't stand a chance, and Bane would be able to defeat them either... Dark troopers for me

[@Just_Pele]

@@Dire_Pack I guess you weren't paying attention when they said Dark Troopers could only be active for short periods of time, because they drain power like crazy, and need to charge most of the time. Good luck with troops that are only active for a few hours each day. Yeah, bounty hunters are a great idea, that's why the smartest bosses in the galaxy use them.

[@danforte2534]

You missed my favorite trooper, the Storm Commandos

[@Caterdbike4378]

It's sad that all we really know of them is they had sole use of the Tie Hunter, the Imperial Escort Frigate, and the fact that they really were just counter terrorists. I say this as all the groups I'm in that know of the commandos treat them as a elite CI force that used the insurgents playbook against themselves. It's still cool to me that the Storm Commandos appeared in Star Wars: Commander.

[@deewatsoon6036]

I remember Shadowtroopers from Legends are force-sensitive soldiers who wield lightsabers...

[@lego_sw24]

This is one of the best videos I have seen about specialized stormies. Also does anyone know what Nova troopers did because he was quite vague?

[@chadflanaganCFC]

Lucasarts/Disney really need to put in more focus to the stormtrooper corp as they've covered nearly every other imperial era faction, as for the question poised in this video though it'd be the Dark troopers as seen in the force unleashed as they were by far my personal favorite design even if they were technically droids

[@Gamerafighter76]

I enjoyed fighting the different storm troopers in TFU.

[@jordantinucci3509]

still remember getting the shadow trooper in the Lego imperial dropship battlepack

[@JonathanCarlos93]

Shadow Troopers, as they are going to do whatever is required to complete the mission.

[@garylingenfelter4111]

Clone Commandos will be my favorite especially the ones wearing black. Shadow Troopers are the best all around. Especially since they were based on Carrier's

[@ZeldaSam1]

For a good portion of this video, my only reaction is my jaw dropping!!! 7:30 NONE OF THE ABOVE!!!

Shadow. Spec ops for the win. That or the Nova Troopers, they seemed to be volunteers. Far better than conscripts.

Well death troopers come to mind.... right before remembering that literally the only thing they did in Rebels, Rogue One and Andor, besides looking cool, was dying. Fitting name don't you think.

ALL these so extremely LETHAL special Elite Stormtrooper types.. an yet one or 2 heroes often made short work of them in all forms of Media. Even then Krennic Death Troopers were based wiped out by just 2 heroes in Rogue One makes me wonder how much better THOSE heroes training must've been to become part of those factions.

What if the Galactic Empire had a massive citizens army like the Volkssturm? These would be poorly trained compared to stormtroopers or imperial army troopers & used as cannon fodder in high intensity conflicts. Their uniforms would be less formal looking than the usual imperial attire too.

No trusting citizens with weapons would lead to them attempting a coup. Also the Imperial Army was enough.
