It's like you missed half of my point. I'm well aware of what Disney claimed but their actions and how they've treated canon shows us that it was a lie.
So repeating again and again Disney's stance is "official" pointless. I'm well aware of it. Disagree with me all you want and continue to believe Disney but from what I've seen it's quite clearly a lie (something that was obvious from the starts BTW).
I've only ever seen three people in the main/canon Star Wars mythos rock a cape, back or side style.
It's either Bail Organa, Fulcrum/Ahsoka or Lando Calrissian. And Rafa/Trace are good guys so they have no reason to lie to the Batch. They also worked with Ahsoka in Clone Wars and Filoni is cutting and pasting old and new canon wherever he wants so it makes sense at least a bit.
I'm more interested in when Wrecker's chip is going to fully activate and make him go crazy.
So turns out it was Rex the sisters were talking to. Makes sense considering we've seen nothing of him since he and Ahsoka went their separate ways, but we know he was alive, well, and without a chip so him continuing to help the fledgling Rebellion is right on track.
I feel like Cid will betray the Batch at some point and they'll end up with the Rebellion proper.

Wasn't Cad Bane supposed to have died in the original plan before the Clone Wars ended?Now he is alive and well during the Empire era.
Bane never died. He faked his death, then he got back into the action and screwed with the Jedi several times. The last time we saw him in Clone Wars he'd been arrested. He got free off screen or in a comic I believe and then he turns out to be the guy who trained Boba Fett in the ways of bounty hunting because he owed Jango.
I like the show, but it's starting to get annoying how easily the Bad Batch are beaten, outsmarted, or taken down every single episode. I get it, they're the main characters now so they have to be vulnerable and can't be an unstoppable force of awesome, but Wrecker is basically big man comic relief and forgets how strong and tough he actually is.
Hunter's senses have been dulled so much he can't even tell if people are sneaking up on him or how to track properly. Plus he's awful in a fight. He's gotten his ass handed to him by Bane, Fennec, and anyone who matters. Tech constantly makes mistakes despite being the smartest guy in the series pretty much, and Echo can barely make use of his R2-D2 Socket arm.
clone wars used to be film canon, as per george lucas's wish, until disney took it over and decided that its just a cartoon sitcom after all. I was glad that disney put an end to that. no film writer should have to make a year-long career out of watching every SW cartoon, and reading the many SW books "officially approved as canon by george lucas (because reasons), in order to avoid contradictions and plot holes.
I have to say, I am enjoying the latest episodes, though they are a tad slow. What I really like though, is that we're being shown that the chips didn't make all the clones turn suddenly evil. It made them turn on the Jedi, yes, but look at Howzer and his squad.
The implication is obviously that the clones can't be trusted to be completely loyal to the Empire, but now we're seeing why. Another interesting part is Crosshair, and how this will or won't affect him going forward.

They are actually still film canon.

They must have malfunctioning chips or something. Because most the clones didnt give squad. And remember Cross Hair is betraying his own friends (who obviously arent Jedi). In fact when Wreckers chip activated he also turned on all of them, despite no Jedi being around.
Crosshair's chip was less mutated than the others because he's just an insanely good sniper with great eyesight. He doesn't have super senses or extreme strength or a hyper intelligent brain. And the Imperials increased the power of his chips signal so much that he's completely fine murdering children if the mission calls for it. He's basically in complete control of himself aside from having no morals outside of his mission protocol.
Them going after non-jedi is because they follow orders. Wrecker knew the Imperials were already after the Batch and that they were traitors so when his chip turned on, he already knew to try and take them out.
We've also seen clones ignore their programming like Cut Lawquane who deserted and has a twi'lek family now. He was living as a civilian before Order 66 even happened and he was completely unaffected.
