Okay hear me out. Ultimate Clone X theory
Clone X is Soup clone.
My evidence for this theory? Plenty when he talks to Crosshair about Joining them when he had the chance? He’s talking about during the food fight. This entire time he has been biding his time. And what is a river if not the soup of nature? I feel this in my bones. All other theories have been rejected as inferior Dogma? Nah! Tech boring! Cody? Ha give me a break. Slick? Derivative. It’s soup clone. The ultimate villain.

So, THAT Clone X trooper...
is 100% definitely, undoubtedly Tech, yeah?
I mean, physically/literally:
His accent is different under the voice modulation
I stg those pained grunts as he lifted the stones were pure Tech
He runs in Creature Posture
The pocketses
He still doesn't give a fuck about following orders
But also narratively:
The lingering closeups whenever he's about to act in regard to the Batch. Is it consideration? Hesitation? They sure want us to wonder.
The story's repeated emphasis on Crosshair being able to anticipate his moves, and the way they match each other beat for beat the whole way down.
The fucking intimacy of the way he almost kills Crosshair. I mean the whole physicality of the fight, but especially the way Clone X had to stare into his eyes while he drowned him.
Why, as a writer, would you waste those story beats on someone who had no personal significance to the Batch? You just wouldn't.

OK, 'hear' me out. (Helps to wear headphones if you listen.)
Season 2, Episode 16, Plan 99, Mark 6:04.
Season 3, Episode 3, Shadows of Tantiss, Mark 1:20.
When the assassin is introduced - it's the same ominous drum(?) sound as when the hinge severs on the railcar after Tech shoots it. Not me looking for any sort of musical leitmotif crumbs that Tech is that assassin. I promised myself I wouldn't speculate. 🙃

That clone assassin is definitely someone important and I have a really bad feeling it's Cody. His voice sounded slightly deeper and different to the other clone assassins. The vibro knife fight with Crosshair and the location of the spiral stairs in the tower are all parallels with Cody's episode in season 2 and the vibro knife fight he has with the commando droid. He clearly knew Crosshair and was goading him about not joining the Empire. He kept his helmet on the entire time so there's no way of confirming if it was Cody or not, which seemed like it was a useful way of hiding their identity. He was more pissed off when he was grumbling to Scorch about why he'd been activated. As soon as I saw that my immediate thought was 'oh god that's Cody.'
Please don't let it be Cody.
The alternative is that it's Tech and holy shit it's Wilder Solder Tech isn't it.

Never really thought I was going to fall into the "Tech Lives" theories, not because they annoy me or they're invalid (in fact they're not, theories and speculation are fair game), but because I tend to theorize and be wrong. I think the term delulu was born because of me.
But when CX2 says "Who are you?" I fucken felt that. "Domicile" who tf uses that word other than the most intelligent clone in the universe? The way he walks?! Reminiscent, to say the least. The emphasis of when CX2 was around Phee? The premonition Hunter felt when he arrived at Pabu?
Sorry folks but I think I'm officially in the Tech Lives camp. I'm ready to accept reality if it turns out he's not alive anymore but HOO CHICKENS it feels like he is.

I wish WE could be 100% certain of it!
