The MOST Important Clone ARC Trooper! (Alpha-17) 

Gotta love Alpha-17. Not only did he train Rex, Cody, Bly, Fox, Gree and all of our other favorite commanders in his ARC Training Program, but he, like all Alpha ARCs, was almost entirely pure Jango in personality.

The Null arcs would have made a sweet story line in the Bad Batch. Imagine them and the Squad leading the Clone Revolt….

Wooooo Alpha 17 finally getting some love like he deserves

Rex and Alphas names are very similar. Rex is Latin for king. So when you think about it both their names associate with some form of leader.

I feel like Rex and Alpha would butt heads a lot in the field. On the other side, Rex and Fordo would probably be competing.

Hope to see a video on commander Bly, he's my second favorite clone trooper behind Rex and is in my opinion a vary tragic and misunderstood character

I miss Alpha 17 and Alpha 77 Captain Fordo but they live on as 1/18, 1/12 and 1/6 scale custom 3D printed and hand painted figures on my shelf. Phase 1 and 2 Fordo was fun to paint since the phase one helmet had to be repainted 4 times because it wasn’t drying properly 😮. Great video by the way. Always pleasing to see my favorite Alpha’s get some respect 😊

Alpha 17 didnt have an inhibitor chip. Non of the Null or Alpha gen Arcs did.

Based on this video's title, and my putting two and two together, my (admittedly biased) vote goes to CT27-5555. Fives is the only trooper to unearth Order 66, have Palaptine at blaster point, and ultimately resulted in the saving of Rex, Ahsoka, Wolf, and several other key characters. Which, as another user pointed out, means that the Rebels show wouldn't have turned out as it did, and thus leading to a likely victory for the Empire. I don't usually like to look at butterfly effects too closely, as events could be altered by other characters. That said, Fives discovery is the only reason that two of the most popular Star Wars characters are still alive and fighting. Fives definitely had many accolades in the Clone Wars, but the events in the 6th season of the Clone Wars elevate his status to an entirely new level. RIP ARC-5555.

Ah yes, Alpha 17. The John 117 of Star Wars.

Well based on your title, I would 110% agree that Alpha's the *most important clone ARC* trooper. Based on what you actually said however, *Single most important clone trooper ever,* I would then say it'd be Fives. There has actually been an argument for Fives in recent years and I gotta say, I have to agree with it. Fives is suuuper underrated and even today, with more love, support and recognition for him steadily increasing over time, it's still not nearly enough. Much like Rex, Alpha and some others, Fives was loyal and obedient but also wasn't afraid to question orders and stand up for what was truly right in his eyes. But unlike Rex, Alpha and pretty much every other clone out there, Fives also knew the truth behind Order 66 and became the clone who was THE closest to blowing the whole scandal wide open in front of the entire galaxy. Mans got the DIRECT attention of both Dooku and PALPATINE and that's saying a LOT. As far as we know today, no other clone matches Fives in that regard. And because of Fives, that's EXACTLY how both Ahsoka AND Rex survived Order 66! After all, Rex did say, with tears streaming down his eyes, to "Find him. Fives. Find him!" before he fully succumbed to the Order and proceeded to fire on Ahsoka. Both of them would've been DEAD without Fives. So, no Rebels and certainly no Ahsoka, as a result. Now as for if we want them to be separate characters or not, well they already are, aren't they? Like you said, Rex was one of the first 100 candidates to participate in the ARC program that was headed by Alpha himself. Alpha came from the OG special clone training program, which was the Alpha program. But then Rex later came from the ARC program, a step below. So, therefore, Rex and Alpha have been 2 separate characters since the beginning of TCW show, when the movie for that first debuted. So, they're already 2 different individuals, that's just facts and I love that. I'd love nothing more than for both Alpha and Rex to exist, of which they factually do, no matter if it's canon or legends! Would be interested to see how they'd work together, alongside Ani hehe.

Alpha being retconned because his name began with an "A," Anakin's name began with an "A," and R2's name sounded like it began with an "A," is so damn stupid. But, of course, the new character, Ahsoka Tano, got to keep her name, and Alpha was cut completely. Just change her name? Alpha came before her. To this day, my feelings about Alpha not being in the show are mixed. Sometimes, I'm glad he's not canon because I don't want his stories from Legends to be altered or changed, but other times I think about what might have been had he been in the show. Alpha is not only the ultimate ARC Trooper, in my opinion, but he's also, hands-down, my favorite clone and Star Wars character.

Imagine Alpha in order 66 💀

Almost first!

Alpha 17 and the NULL-ARCs were SO much better characters than Rex, Fives, Echo and all those cardboard-cutouts from TCW! -.- At least they had some kind of own personalities that went WAY deeper than just from "By the book!" to "Free-Thinker!" -.-

He is good, but Fordo was the original

I'm pretty sure the other ARC Troopers were as deadly and loyal to Jango as Aphla was, too bad we didn't get to see the other ones in action

REX IS THE GOAT technically not the first but the most humane and good person

Everyone knows Clone Trooper Sixes is the greatest clone ever. Even Baccara wanted to be him.

Rex will always be my GOAT, but Alpha will always be that guy to me.

rex? I thought he was a private and was promoted to captain rex. rex was also not a commander. Rex was not a ark either he was a captain Im confused

My headcanon for legends is Alpha 17 and Ventress became friends or something more and lived their days in the outer rim.

Still fordo. Fordo litterly gets doomslayer montages in og clone wars.

Can we just all agree that Red Five here just makes the best Star wars Clone content right now?

I thought it said "Better than sex" and technically its not wrong

Fordo is the goat

Every freaking Null and Alpha is better than Rex. These guys are the Spartan Soldiers of the Republic. Don't forget, Filoni hates Alpha-ARCs and one of his least favorite Clones is Captain Fordo.

It wouldn't make sense if Rex(as Alpha) trained Cody and then Cody unranking Rex So aside (not the same man/clone)

“The Alpha! Now, we have a fight!” - Drago Bludvist, How To Train Your Dragon 2

OIII Yo... Now im going on 30 this year. But when i was 13 i went to the US and i remember getting this comic book and I lost it many years ago.... But its the Shit your showing in 6:19 and it came with a Toy Alpha. I still have him... Not his helmet or hands... But i still have him in my desk.

Captain Fordo 🐐

Sigma clone

I like that one of the greatest clones of all time trained all of our favorite clones and prefer Alpha and Rex to be seperate

It's a shame the Clone Wars cartoon didn't do the Battle for Tipoca City like the comics.

Yup a legend. it's so sad the other two taken out by droideka, image if all three survive.

I'm glad he wasn't made Rex. I love Legends just as much as canon, if not more.

Can you make a video of the first order Stormtrooper types and variants from episode 7-9and battlefront 2

Rex sucks

Come to think of it, if either side fought to win and nothing else, the galaxy would be a lot worse place to live in.

Why didnt the alpha arcs dual wield dc17’s or wield any at all?? Them pistols are just built different

6:56 holy crap i remember reading this comic from my local library when i was a wee child lol

I wish we got to see Alpha 17 in canon.

I’m pretty sure alpha 17 and anikin are the reason clones have names

My refusal to not have every part of Kotor in my head cannon makes me a legends fan by default.

Alpha-17 is the shizz But Alpha-77 is my fave

من همان آرایشگر هستم از قوچان توی منی چت با هم حرف زدیم

ALL Clones are just CHADS.

What comic series does his arc appear in?

CC-2224 is the only clone who matters

commander Thorn of the 65th CG?

Would you mind listing the comic books that you got many of these stills from? I'd be very interested in reading. Thanks!

Fordoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo da best!

Alpha's 17 Legend though Literally, he has no connection to the cannon Besides Rex, However if he did connect to Alpha 17 as you described training The first generation of clone troopers Including rex. however, this contradicts the Canon Because Rex's a first generation clone trooper and he was there at the First Battle of Genesis Just a few months before or after.. not a bad idea though. Actually, I would love for this to be Canon. Because this Most logical scenario. And that makes most sense

سلام سینا جان شما ره همراه را برام بفرست

4:10 I mean to be fair Anakin was just a padawan and a teen he wasnt strong at that time Alpha-17 is insane he was only critically wounded Rex would be dead at that point from grevious

Alpha is definitely my favorite clone. But i think Fives is the closest we'll get to Alpha. Fives has a lot of Alpha's personality

There’s a theory that the trooper that you see that Obi-Wan Kenobi talks to and gives some money to, and the Obi Kenobi series is Alpha 17

Need one of those "save the City" generic war stories featuring Arc Captains/ commanders. "After many consecutive months of the front lines and skipping of assigned rest shore leave, several Arc captains are forced to take a vacation on a far away Vacation,resort, convention moon. Meanwhile, the local faction taking advantage of relaxed security plots to take over the resort prompting the captains back into action...."

Alpha-17 was one of my favorite clone troopers always wished he would have been in the clone wars series

Alpha 17 is a badas*

I love rex and fordo

Best Comic series 🎉

Recently splatoon has had some accessibility controversy also.

Most interesting video I've seen in a long time. Thank you for putting this together

Ah yes, the true Chad himself. I prefer him over Rex

How does this man not have 1m subs? He’s a great RU-vidr. 😁

Nah def Rex.

hello

6:00 is that at-at's in the bottom left corner?

even before seing the full title of the video i knew about who it was

Someone tell me the name of the comic pls

Rex is just a watered down Alpha.

aaaayy the Homie finally get some love!

2003 clone wars is canon…

He is a literal alpha male. What a guy

he looks so buff

One of the badass clones to ever live

Clone Fives was the most important imo

literally rex is the weakest of the 4 and shouldnt even be an arc, more like a pitty trooper

Better than Rex you traitor! Lol

No clone is „better than Rex“ Rex is our boy

I’m still trying to figure out why this is relevant to real life and what it can do to improve the world maybe if people started going outside more over worrying about sci-fi we might be smarter as a species
