No screaming, no fear, just a solider doing what he does, protecting his squad mates, his family.

Having Wrecker just standing there in shock realizing he wasn't strong enough to save his brother is what drove it home for me

Don't worry guys, Tech's voice actor is coming back for season 3

The fact that only one human is able to convey so many different tones, emotions and fears into these characters is nothing less of impressive. Dee Bradley Baker is incredible.

When Tech asked “When have we ever followed orders?”, that was the moment my heart completely sank. His sacrifice and sassiness will never be forgotten.

People went in to the finale, thinking we were gonna see the rescue of crosshair, and the season ends with the bad batch all together ready for more adventures in season 3. Good god were they wrong. I'm not crying, your crying.

Tech’s death is one of the few Star Wars deaths that genuinely made me tear up man. From the first line he spoke he was my favorite. For him to sacrifice his life to ensure his squad survives is a perfect send-off for him. I’m gonna miss him.

Omega's reaction is definitely heartbreaking, but I'll never forget the pain in Wrecker's voice when he fell

“When have we ever followed orders?” Absolutely badass last words.

I literally cried all the tears of my body , when i understand Plan 99 is the opposite of order 66 ... Sacrifice this life for your brothers ...

I’m glad Tech didn’t come back, his sacrifice was that of a hero’s and he didn’t die in vain. This moment ended up giving The Bad Batch their happy ending

“I may process moments and thoughts differently, but it does not mean I feel any less than you.” Tech was really underused in the first season and they did such great things with this character. I started to relate a lot more to him. So yeah, this scene hits hard.

Bro I legit cried. I knew someone was gonna get hurt but I didn’t think we’d lose Tech. RIP 😢

I totally saw this coming. They built him up for a reason this season. Still incredibly heartbreaking

"Wake up, Wrecker! Clone Force 99 died with Tech. We're not that squad anymore."

Wrecker yelling "no" as he watched his brother fall to his death was was one of the saddest parts

This scene hits hard because the entirety of the show, our main characters somehow seem to always escape death or intense situations where their backs are against the wall, so the feeling that Tech would somehow make it was always lingering in the back of my mind… but then the sudden realization that he won’t be so lucky this time just hits you right in the gut. Rip to my fav Bad Batch soldier, Tech 🫡

I wonder how Crosshair will react after learning of his brother’s fate. Perhaps he’ll feel guilty. RIP Tech, you will be missed. And now today, we lost Tech one year ago.

Dave Filoni shows us in each series that one member of the squad sacrifices himself so that others can live. Previously Fives in Clone Wars, Kanan in Rebels and now Tech in Bad Batch. And yes, the sacrifice scenes are always emotional and well executed.

"Good soldiers follow orders." Vs "when have we ever followed orders." Tech you were a real one. Rest in peace

Top 3 saddest clone deaths, might even be close to number 1 for me. This entire episode was so stressful...

"When have we ever followed orders?" Something about the way he said that, despite knowing what was about to happen...

The tragedy of this is that Tech died never get to see his freedom. While the rest of the Bad Batch lived on as free men on Pabu, Tech died as a soldier. Never being able to live peacefully on Pabu, never being able to see Crosshair's redemption, and the worst of it, he didn't even get to see Omega grew up.

Taking a look back at this scene a year later after the Series Finale and realizing this is probably the first time that Disney has ever killed off a main character to fall damage without a body for confirmation. Rip Tech the Brave, your sacrifice will not be forgotten.

He didn’t even close his eyes as he fell. The last thing he ever saw was his family. Tech was always so selfless and never hesitated to put himself in danger for them and was like a father to Omega (even more so than Hunter imo). I’m gonna miss him so much.

I for sure thought that Echo was gonna be the one to die first. That whole scene with Hunter in episode 14 made me feel like Echo was gonna die. Dang, Phee's gonna have a hard time.

Hats off to Dee Bradley Baker, he portrayed Techs helplessness and acceptance into wreckers grief and anger perfectly, so talented

It literally killed me when his last lines was “when have we ever followed followed orders?” I’m literally crying 😭

The moment I saw the title Plan 99, I instantly knew it meant sacrifice. Just like how 99 sacrificed his life for his brothers on Kamino, Tech sacrificed his life for his squad

I had my suspiciouns this would happen, but when Phee said "see you soon" I knew something bad would happen

Anyone else coming here after the finally and realizing he's really gone?

Coming back after the series finale- man this hits even harder knowing he is for sure gone. I’m crying my eyes out just because we know now for sure that he is gone.

Rest in peace Tech. You won’t be forgotten.

bro my jaw dropped for 15 mins when this happened. RIP Tech

"I may process moment and thoughts differently, but it does not mean I feel any less than you."

Crosshair simply shot Nolan for leaving his new friend to die. Imagine what he’ll do when he finds out Tech’s dead

This is more impactful for wrecker, because he watched him fall and will think he’s at fault for his death. while the real culprit of his death was saw.

Honestly never saw this coming... I thought Echo might be the one to go, but Tech? It really got to me. Just finished watching and... I have no words except... well, f*ck Saw Gerrara. He's [in]directly responsible for the situation that led to Tech's death.

Here we are the end of seasons 3 So you're actually dead 😢

"When have we ever followed orders" Legendary last words rest in peace Tech you will not be forgotten

“Where’s tech? Is he safe? Is he alright?” 😭😭

The worst part is that the camera shot made it clear that even if Tech survived the fall for a fraction of a second, the train car would immediately pulverize him upon impact. Tech's closed casket, next to no doubt about it. Note that Hemlock says the goggles were all he could "salvage" not all he could "find." Meaning the goggles were the most inact thing about Tech.

I will never forgive Saw Gerrera for this.

Damn so he really is gone

I've already commented on this vid, but I can't believe I've only now just noticed that even after Tech shot the connection hinge, Wrecker still tried to hold up the train cart at 0:14 so it wouldn't fall. How horrible it must have felt for him to lose his grip on the only thing stopping Tech from falling. I think Wrecker definitely felt the impact. Bless him.

Dammit I saw this coming the second he hopped on the rails. Fives was the saddest death to me but tech takes that spot now..

I'm so glad CX-2 isn't Tech. Would have been such a cop out.

“Clone Force 99 died with Tech.”

Techs Death was problaby one of the most brutal death ever, he had only a light armour, with such an high fall and the train above him, he basically got all his bones crushed.

These entire two episodes had me smiling, yelling, and grieving. We both hate and love you Dave Filoni.

No fear, no screaming, but was confident that his comrades will get out of there in one piece, the sign of a true hero

This scene hits different now after seeing the Season 3 finale. He’s really gone 😢

Another good soldier...gone rest easy Tech you will be missed.

Poor Tech 😢😢😢😢. One of the greatest members of the Bad Batch.

Crosshair: Good soilders follow orders Tech: When have we EVER followed orders

Damn you Saw Gerrera!

I felt numb the rest of that episode. Of all the bad batch, I never thought he'd be the first to fall. Rest easy Tech. ❤🥽

One of the best star wars deaths, he knew there was only one way out for his brothers so he allowed them to survive and gave up his own live. Tech will be missed. 😔

1 year ago today. And I still can't believe he's gone.

Something about the line ‘when have we ever followed orders’ feels so perfect and antithetical to ‘good soldiers follow orders’ cause the Batch aren’t soldiers they’re family.

And this is why we cheer when Saw Guerra finally dies in Rogue one.

When this series started I always had a hunch that Tech would be the first to go damn I wish I was wrong. Plan 99 which referenced 99 during the droid attack on Kamino when he tried running back to the armory for more explosives he sacrificed himself

I have 1 thing to say to the people who thought he was still alive… “Well I thought it was obvious.”

"It's a good thing we were wearing helmets....because none of us could bare to look her in the eye."

Of course the character that gets the most screen time and the best one of the squad falls I can't forgive saw that was literally all his fault that actually made me shed tears the music hit so hard

This whole scene was tragic, but honourable. Tech going out protecting his squad to ensure they live to fight another day made my heart sink and curious for how the squad adapts to him being gone when season 3 comes. Another thing that makes me curious is how the Batch will react when they next encounter Saw. His charges did cause all the damage to the base, plus the rack rail power outage which led to Tech's death. Really shows the lengths he'll go to ensure the Empire's fall even if it results in death on the wrong side.

Losing tech was such a big hit towards the squad. They would've probably have found the location of Tantiss if tech was still around

I think one of the more haunting aspects of Techs' death is the fact we see his eyes, with most clones, their helmets cover their whole face, so they're just another body to be killed, but with Tech, you see the look in his eyes, that solum resolution as he falls, it the last time you truly see "Him" and not just another clone.

“When have we ever followed orders?” That hit close to home.

Tech death krennic cameo omega sister reveal and kidnaping omega we are left by cliffanger....two years to season 3... Its was a sad finale

with the Bad Batch concluded, we can finally put Tech to rest unfortunately.

This was the first death in the Clone Wars/Bad Batch series that actually surprised me. RIP Tech, you were a good soldier and your sacrifice was not in vain.

The fact that Hemlock found his body makes me believe Tech is not dead. He may have taken his body for horrific experiments and modifications in order to become his "ideal" soldier Edit: I stand corrected. Cowboy hats off to you Dave for actually killing off a main character.

What a hero's death. Clone Troopers around the galaxy should salute this man

Who's here after the Season 3 finale and is well aware that Tech really died?

"somehow tech returned"

This moment feels like Gandalf the Grey in Lord of the Rings when he says 'Fly you Fools' only Tech says to Wrecker 'When have we ever followed Orders?' Only differently.

the batch won't be the same without tech, i will miss him.

Tech is one of my favorite characters in the show. this scene hit me like a ton of bricks. When it happened I immediately screamed “NO” and wrecker and omegas reaction killed me and later on when the doctor threw tech’s glasses to hunter my jaw dropped. Season 2 was an a emotional rollercoaster can’t wait for season 3

I noticed before but it just hit me that Wrecker was holding all of the weight of that train car when Tech severed the connection until his strength failed him. He blames himself even though he knows it isn't his fault.

I don’t think Tech’s dead but his sacrifice will hit even harder than if he did, once we find out what Hemlock turns him into.

Tech’s internal realization that there’s nothing that could be done to save him is just.. heartbreaking. These are the emotions we need and deserve from cinema and Hollywood as a whole. It’s crazy how much more emotion a damn animated show has brought me growing up, more than the movies and the things that look and feel more real than animation. Maybe it’s because the clones were always my favorite part of the lore. I’m the 5th in a lineage carrying the same name. I find myself sometimes to be a clone. To carry my name is to honor my fathers name and so forth before them, and so in that sense I feel immense sadness for the clones and their situations. They only ever were bred for war. For a singular purpose. It makes you really think, did my father have me for that purpose? Did his father have him for the same? Tech’s death is a reminder that, as men, it is honorable to accept defeat and know when you’re beaten. Weigh the odds and consider the lives of those that are intertwined with yours. If you had a chance to save your siblings, parents, friends, or whomever made an impact on you, would you find yourself with the same courage he had..? Or as much as we’d like to believe we are that, would we really just be as scared and emotional as the rest of the bad batch. It takes great writing to really delve into the inner depths of your heart and feel things for people that don’t even exist. Just.. well done. All the filler this season was worth it. All the ups and downs are realized and we know the stakes. Hunter echo and wrecker are LIVID. You know their anger. You feel it within yourself. Your teeth grind and your fists clinch. Techs death with not go in vain. This is the greatest Star Wars media in recent memory for me. It combines the prequel and sequel eras and gives you a sense for how desperate the galaxy is becoming in the empire’s rule. (Cuss warning) I’m so excited for next season and I’m ready to feel fucking primal rage as these 3 probably do. Oh baby I CAN NOT wait to see where this goes.

“When have we ever followed orders?” -CT-9902 ‘Tech’ R.I.P

Since there are no episode talking about if Tech survived in Season 3, we can now declare that he is dead.

Dear Dave Filoni, Why?… WHY MUST YOU PLAY WITH OUR HEARTS IN SUCH A WAY?!

Damn it Saw! If he had listened to the gang and disabled that bomb and worked with them. Then everyone would of made it out alive and they would of found Mt. Tantis. He is directly responsible for not only Tech's death, but for Omega being captured.

one of the best lines in a star wars scene ever.. I'm not crying.. you are😢😮

Remember the golden rule of cinema. If a character dies off screen, they aren’t actually dead

Honestly I sought of see this coming, when he got development suddenly

I somehow felt they were going to kill him off about halfway through the season, yet his death was so impactful beyond expectation. The concept of what Plan 99 must mean is so noble and devoted to the squad and at the same time a sad and alarming way of going away. And those have got to be some of the hardest-hitting last words I’ve heard in all Star Wars, considering what Clone Force 99 represent.

And this is why I hate Saw Guerrera

Because of the off screen death I had hopes that he somehow survived. I had hope till the very end of the series

You can notice that Wrecker was willing to try and hold onto the cart and hold onto it and lean over the edge shows that he didn’t care about his fears,just saving his brother

Tv show hero logic. Unless there is a body for the viewer to see, the hero isn't dead.

It HURTS now that we know he's actually dead

Man, this show was really good and tech not being able to be there in the end was sad and the shows finale really was bitter to me. I’m going to miss the excitement of Wednesdays. This show was the first to ever put me to tears

this scene literally ripped my heart out. I really hope he's not dead! Hemlock could always be lying..right? RIGHT?!

Nah he ain't dead, Hemlock is the head of the 'kidnap clones and take their abilities' division and he just happened to have Techs goggles?? Techs alive 100%

"He's doing what a soldier does, sacrificing himself for the lives of others"

After watching the finale, I will say that it was wishful thinking that tech was alive/being a believer in the “techs alive” theory. Although I say that there was some basis to this theory, as echo survived the clone wars citadel arc after being blown up by a literal turbo laser tower, and techs death was one of those off screen ones.
