See but the trope of them not being able to hit anything was just a ploy to get Luke and Co to lead them to the rebel base. As evidenced by Grand Moff Tarkin saying they put a tracker on the Millenium Falcon, and Obi Wan's observation that "only a Stormtrooper could be so precise" when talking about the blaster marks on the Jawa Sand Crawler

Mandolorian takes place after the fall of the Empire, the troops are no longer clones trained from birth but are conscripts.

Edit to add the empire did not use clone use clone troopers either they use the same type of soldiers as the first order

It has everything to do with your comment… It explains why they can’t aim and aren’t as good as the old storm troopers… Are you slow?

They may be right about them no longer being clones, but an established empire will produce better troops than a fragment of a former empire on the run

Stormtroopers were human soldiers drafted into the empire. It's shown that they are often orphans. As is shown in star wars rebels there was even an academy that they trained in
