The initial (mark 0?) Dark Troopers were Clone cyborgs, but every model after that were advanced battledroids. Nothing organic about then at all.

The model Gideon was reviewing looked like the last model from the game, mark 3 I think they were. Fully droid.

Which is pretty perfect as an opponent for Din Djarin...

Spoiler!

They were droids, but they could be worn as an exosuit.

Only a small number of Phase III dark troopers were ever constructed; one was the armor of General Rom Mohc, who used it as an exosuit in single combat against Kyle Katarn during a battle onboard the colossal factory ship Arc Hammer.

I like the idea of an exo-suit much better, because it's a better foil for Mando and his suit vs the bad guy's suit - plus fighting a bunch of droids doesn't seem like a worthy opponent for him.

I like the idea of him getting beaten by a bunch of dudes in Dark Trooper armor, and then going back to someone (Boba Fett maybe) for some upgrades that help him win the rematch
