mememan 07 except they're not, at most they're a special strike unit of (commando) soldiers. Not advance because they don't go ahead of the main bulk of the army, they just go wherever. Not recon because they don't hide and sneak about the enemy army's encampments for the sole purpose of gathering intel and try to avoid combat as much as possible. Quite the opposite, the lightsaber dude says in one of the panels shown in this video "who's ready to kill some rebels," which isn't exactly conflict-avoidant behaviour. So that means the A and R are gone, leaving you with a much more boring SCS - Special Commando Soldiers.

Zap Gun idk I think scar were the better part of it I woulda liked thoe if Darth Vader didn’t kill his troopers and let the ones who thought Vader was a Jedi after Order 66 and the one who was like ima Jedi in the opening pages if he kept them and called them Vader fist and then had the 501th legion and then had scars bc then he would of had a badass personal army of his old trooper as Anakin then his new Vader fist as Vader and even a special opps group as scar or the trooper 99

even when creel dies, he'll be remembered as the stormtrooper that (despite lacking force abilities) managed to put up multiple separate fights with luke skywalker.
This shows that anyone can be trained to wield a lightsaber effective enough againsts force sensitives. It's just a lot harder cause you don't have to force to hold you up.

Huh. It's almost like looking at a new version of Grievous. Both Grievous and Kreel were incredibly skilled alien warriors who eventually came to the attention of a powerful Sith Lord, both were trained in lightsaber combat despite not being Force sensitive, and both became regular enemies of the Jedi.

This story actually helps explain Luke's greater Lightsaber skills after being trained by Yoda for such a short time.
Imagine a Sith Lord who discovers how to filter the midichlorians out of someone's body either through some kind of blood filtration, or surgically splitting their cells and removing them. Then he injects them into his bloodstream. His force connection could be unthinkable. Has this ever been done in legends or something?

Awesome!! :) I love this story with Kreel: he being an infamous non-human fighter in a gladiator pit with a dangerous reputation, he witnessing Stormtroopers, becoming fascinated by them, going to the Stormtrooper Academy to join their ranks; him being personally selected and trained by Darth Vader to join the 501st; him being sent undercover as one of a lightsaber-obsessed Hutt's slaves, he taking his first lightsaber from the vault; he encountering Luke in the pits and fighting him, Luke escaping; Kreel and Luke meeting and duelling again, Luke escaping. X) From this video, Kreel's story sounds very interesting, like you said, and I'd like to see it completed. X)

Most awesome vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kreel's story could make an incredible video game!
Impressive, most impressive.
Krill and his team would make a really good show.
That's really badass
He is one of my favorite characters!
i want a movie of him now!
It's great to have a Storm Trooper squad to follow again.
He sounds like a cool guy
Now one of my favorite storm troopers
More Stormtrooper stories!
this part of empire i like to see i wanna learn more the storm troopers like the clones before the storm troopers seemed lamed vs the clones but now you get a better insight
This story is badass.
Your vids are so informative! Ty 4 posting! I was wondering, on the timeline, when did Luke duel him? I'm assuming between New Hope and Empire, thus contributing to Vader being "obsessed with finding young Skywalker..."?
I thought all stormtroopers were easily wasted, but seeing one with goofd lightsaber skills? Man, this guy's got edges!
Lul, Luke got bested, ran away from, and was matched by a (albeit badass) *non-Force Sensitive* Stormtrooper in Lightsaber Combat. Lmfao, rekt.
Idk why but it's always great to see a none force user giving a Jedi or Sith a run for their money. Just shows the force is strong but sometimes not strong enough. Also I definitely wanna see more of Kreel and the 501st because they seem to be the only competent stormtroopers.
That’s a lot of damage!
alien stormtrooper armor looks sooooooo cool
Kreel's becoming one of my favorite Star Wars characters. Just something about this badass Stormtrooper who can duel Jedi makes for a cool adversary. Vader can't canonically die until ROTJ, Inquisitors are an institution all on their own, but this guy? Just a soldier who happens to be very skilled at an outdated practice that also just so happens to be really effective against the Empire's greatest threat.

Do a 'what if' about krypton being in a galaxy far far away.
After initially watching Old Ben vs Vader, I was under the impression that the user need force energy to make the blade extend from the base.
Him, Han, and Finn (as far as we know) are so far the only non-force users to use a lightsabre. Very interesting !

I hope he survived the Battle of Endor and appears briefly in the Battlefront 2 campaign
it would be cool if Princess Lea Organa was cloned by Imperials and was given storm-trooper training to be used as a weapon for Darth Vader but she ends finding Kreal, the storm-trooper that was an alien and was trained by Vader, and Lea and Kreal have a son together. Kreal would train his son in light-saber training like Vader showed him but unlike Kreal his son would have a strong force connection because he was biologically the grandson of Darth Vader. Darth Vader would find Kreal's son amusing and try to use him as a weapon of the dark-side. Dath Vader would also rename Kreal's son Viper and send him on assassin missions after polishing his training and teaching him about the dark-side. Viper would be sent to assassinate the main rebellion leader to end the rebellion leadership. There he would fight Luke Skywalker and Luke would send him flying with a force-push and after hitting a wall, Viper would be knocked unconscious. While Viper was unconscious, Luke took a DNA sample because Viper resembled Princess Lea Organa and he would find out that Viper was biologically the son of Lea. Luke senced that Viper had a strong connection to the force and convince him to become a Jedi like himself and fight evil instead of working for evil.

Elite stormtrooper trained in the way of the sand.
I found something interesting that the E-11 blaster in comics seems much bigger than the one in movies
early again!.i thought of a thing were we could do the "wave" and pass a comment thread to other star wars youtubers. do you think it would work?
The lightsabre is a powerful melee weapon. Non force sensitive fighters might not be able to use it to its full potential, but it can cut through pretty much anything. Not a bad choice for a secondary close range weapon, imho.
Lightsabers still have practical usage since they're just plasma swords, even Han used it to slice open his dead tauntaun's stomach to temporarily keep Luke warm. Seriously, it's only a melee weapon. The reason why Jedi and Sith mostly use lightsabers because they practice swordplay and utilize the 7 disciplines of lightsaber combat along with the force; It falls under the bushido code. However without the disciplines and without the force, a lightsaber is still a melee weapon that anyone can use as long as the wielder at least has basic combat training under his/her belt. Finn was able to use a lightsaber and he's not even a Jedi, he relied on his combat training from his days serving the First Order.
Badass training badass armor badass story
You answered my question at the end the only canon stormtroopers with a lightsaber lol.....
+The Stupendous Wave What if Han Solo never met Chewbacca? What if the Empire never discovered Echo Base on Hoth? What if Mace Windu killed Dooku on Geonosis? What if Obi-Wan was never captured on Geonosis?
When did this happen?! Seems like a very big event with Skywalker! After episode 4?

This Storm Trooper would go on to form a NEW squadron after SCARS, the 789th, Vader's Elbow.
Are the SCARS considered "special forces" like Inferno squad from the new battlefront coming up?
My OC and cosplay character is partially based off this dude, as well as X1 and X2 from SWB Elite Squadron
What does it mean to have force potential?
Imma say this rn, we gonna see kreel in the bad batch for sure
Who would like him to have his own movie
He died on Crait.
What comic(s) are cannon about this stormtrooper or feature him in it?
Which Star Wars comic series is this from? I think I might have to buy the trade.
what book in the canon series does this belong to? or comic?
What comic was this? The one where it talks about Creul
How skilled was Luke as a Jedi just before he went to train with Yoda in ESB? Like, I guess, how much had he learned/how refined was he by the start of ESB?
I wonder if the SCAR Troopers had any relation to Inferno Squadron?
I like this storm trooper
Originally the Stormtroopers were supposed to have Troopers that used Lightsabers but that was cut. In fact, if you dig up Concept Art. See Troopers holding Lightsabers. And people forget. The Lightsaber is a tool ( a weapon to the uneducated call it). Anyone can use a Lightsaber. Yet a Jedi (or Sith) can wield it to its fullest effect.
Dude, plz go in depth on Luke's training and duels with him, we don't have to much knowledge on how Luke got his dueling skills
What about a novel about scar squad similar to inferno squad
What comic is that?
