Bad Batch S1:E15 (Spoilers)

Strong episode. I'm glad they brought out the reflector disks for CH to use, but I'm sad he looks fine. No scars from the conflicts with his old friends.
I liked the reveal of the not having a chip. It is was a good decision and can make his redemption that much more, and not just a flip of a switch.
Looking forward to the finale! Hoping to see some Reg on recruit action!

  • My guess would be Crosshair’s chip came out after Ep 8 / getting burned, and then he realized that the BB both learned to remove their inactive chips and had made no effort to rescue him. That’s what his reaction seemed to me, although he seemed rather chipped in the Ryloth pair.

    When Crosshair is released, please give him a Mirror Shot mechanic!
  • I wouldn’t be surprised if the empire removed it for him. The whole theme is them getting away from the inhibitor chips that can malfunction and more towards people who want to serve the empire and swear fealty to the empire.

    He obviously felt betrayed by the Bb but also sees an opportunity for purpose in the empire rather than just running around behind hunted.

    All in all one of the best episodes. Subverted expectation of the BB just removing his chip and everything be ok but didn’t do it just for subverting expectations sake (aka GoT).

    Quick question, given that episode 15 is a two parter, will there be a second episode 15 thread next Friday for the second part, or will this thread simply continue that discussion?


    I'll make a new one.

    Awesome episode.. hopefully the kaminoans have more secrets. I wouldn’t be surprised to see CH be a dark side scoundrel at this point. No real loyalty and always hunted by both sides.


    I think this would be the most interesting development for his character. He's always been part of a team and doing what he feels is the right thing to do as part of a bigger organization.

    But what if he went on his own and did things for himself? He'd make a heckuva Bounty Hunter or hired merc.

    enjoyed all the twists and turns..

    Omeeega is older than BB? Interesting...


    Yeah, so they must've created her without the rapid aging condition. I wonder if they even went they other way and made it so she ages more slowly than a regular person?

    If he is ever brought to SWGoH, I will heavily advocate for a mirror shot. It's too cool.

    Lol, (Zeta) cool down of 20 and is reduced by one for every enemy with target lock or stun. If all targets are stunned and TL’ed, this power’s cool down is ignored. Deals true damage to all enemies which cannot be evaded or resisted.

    Or just dark side version of chewpio
  • I was thinking an ability like the Slave 1’s Proton Torpedoes special. Let Crosshair hit more opponents based on whether they have Target Lock (or a unique Crosshair debuff/status effect).

    But I’d settle for an AoE with a cool animation. Crosshair is a sniper, after all. Huge single target damage would be greatly appreciated.

    Maybe we'll have a use for someone with an Accuracy Arrow :p
