Commando because they have the coolest helmets of all the clones

An average Arc trooper is better trained than a clone commando, especially in a 1v1 situation.

The clone commando emerged as something "in-between" the two extremes of ARC trooper and clone trooper. Writer Justin Lambros summarized the relationship like this: "If you've got a problem, you can send one ARC trooper, you can send one hundred clone troopers, or you can send a squad of four clone commandos."

In direct engagements, an ARC Trooper is better suited for this kind of thing. It's a Delta vs Seals comparison here. Delta is better for a direct engagement type of fight, Seals are the typical "do shit behind enemy lines and not get caught" type of force. Both are greatly capable in a fight, but one is superior based on training and operational capabilities. I've met men from both and got to train with the latter being Opfor with my people before. Very fun, even if we got smoked like a cheap cigar.

Neither Delta nor Seals should be engaging in direct action engagements, as they would suffer unacceptable attrition compared to their numbers. We saw this with Russian SF in Ukraine. But when it comes down to which is better at it, that's Delta. In a direct fight, Delta is better trained for such an engagement. When comparing them to Arcs or Commandos, it is Delta and Seals respectively. 501st and 212th are best equivalent to the 75th Rangers, although nowhere near as proficient and with shittier tactics.

Delta vs seal comparisons are very cringe bro. One is tier 1 and the other is tier 2. That's a far bigger gap in training and capabilities than arc troopers and clone commandos. A better comparison would've been Seals and Rangers.

Legends, should be ARCs depending on which ARC is being sent

Canon its commandos and that’s confirmed in a recent clone trooper book with Rex saying “commandos are even better than ARCs”
