ARC-77 Fordo Respect Thread

[Darth Durin's Baneling]

I recently came across the shocking realization that nowhere on the internet is there a respect thread for the best Clone Trooper in Star Wars. This drastic error must be rectified. So, without further ado:

Respect Captain Fordo!



Accolades


ARC troopers are described as only one step removed from Jango Fett himself.


-Republic #51

According to Obi-Wan Kenobi, the group of ARC troopers including Fordo are the best the Clone Army has to offer.

“ARC troopers. You have been selected for this task because you are the best. The elite. You all know what to do. The success of your mission is our key to a swift victory. When you get into position, send word as planned. Then, I will join you.”

Accuracy

Fordo destroys at least eight B-1 Battle Droids. Of his shots that we see land, he doesn’t miss a single one (2:30).

-Clone Wars: Chapter 3

Fordo hits Durge in the center of his forehead with pinpoint accuracy.

-Clone Wars: Chapter 9

Fordo blasts several B-2 Super Battle Droids at close range, hitting them with the majority of his shots.

-Clone Wars: Chapter 23

Draw Speed/Reaction Time

Fordo quickly destroys at least eight B-1 Battle Droids (2:30).

-Clone Wars: Chapter 3

Fordo destroys eight B-2 Super Battle Droids in the span of only a few seconds, defeating several before they can even react.

-Clone Wars: Chapter 23

Strength

Fordo floors a B-2 Super Battle Droid with his blaster rifle, staggering another by throwing the rifle at it.

-Clone Wars: Chapter 23

Durability

Fordo survives a shuttle crash (3:03).

-Clone Wars: Chapter 2

Fordo survives and quickly recovers from being knocked back by Durge (2:40).

-Clone Wars: Chapter 9

Equipment

Fordo has a taser built into his wrist gauntlet, which has enough force to temporarily incapacitate and cause visible pain in Durge, a character who has proved resistant to blaster fire on several occasions.

-Clone Wars Chapter 9

Both Fordo’s blaster rifle and blaster pistol prove to be capable of tearing through the B-2s’ heavy armor.

-Clone Wars: Chapter 23

[shame]

Nice to see a RT for Fordo! Even though he appears only in the old Clone Wars show, he still kicks ass! Nice job

[Nute_ChethrayModerator]

I think you could also mention some other general arc trooper accolades (like direct superiority to commandos), but you got the most important stuff

[wankdestroyer]

Nice. I enjoyed this.

One of my favorite troopers tbh, along with fives and thorn.

[TheSwordMaster]

Fordo > Rex tbh

[Cody555]

Finally and RT for the most badass clone in Star Wars! And ^ yeah I do think Fordo > Rex too.
