Commando Droids can also dodge forward and back further than many other units and heroes. Equipped with a modified E-5 Blaster Rifle for ranged combat, Commando Droids are also armed with vibroswords that are used both in their melee attacks as well as their first ability, Sinister Strikes, inflicting damage to enemies in close quarters in up to three sword strikes, with the final strike being so powerful that it knocks down enemy players, before a cooldown. Commando Droids are advanced, lethal droids on the battlefront.
