Tychus is working for Duran (speculation)

[Kimera757]

Yes. Tamsen Cauley maybe? (He had at least a slight interest in Findlay; he looked up his file while hunting Jim Raynor.)

There's no mention of Valerian Mengsk in the comics. And of course, there's no proof, just me speculating; it's just crackpottery.

Tychus is a badass, he just escaped prison exactly like the guy in Fear the Reaper. 1 man vs Folsom Prison? No problem. Then he'll blow giant holes in the wall using gauss rifles held by marines in suits, and then he'll rig the place up with explosives and fly away in a giant dropship.

While he's in stasis?

That's how badass he is man, I'm tellin ya.

That would be unlikely. He was most likely lying for effect. However if that was true that would be awesome.

Someone has to make that mission.

You get one hero: Tychus Findlay. Kill all those guards! Make it 3PS, like that StarCraft: Ghost map.

[Roland]

A 3PS in SC engine with Gears of War style gameplay would be the best.

I'm fairly certain Moebius was planning on hiring Raynor through Tychus, it's just a matter of whose behind Moebius. Was the earliest we've seen them in the timeline Voice in the Darkness? When they were founded seems crucial to knowing who started them.

[Kimera757]

I'm pretty sure we've never seen them before Voice. One wonders if they'll hire Jake Ramsey; he's seen a lot.

[Asfastasican]

I'm sorry, but IMO this would be a terrible way for the plot to go.

"Yes, the guy that I knew way back when we were in the Heaven's Devil is a traitor and a backstabber."

IIRC Tychus mentions that he's sealed into his suit and it can't be taken off until he pays off his debt to whoever sprung him from prison.

I'm also wondering how the hell Zeratul managed to get onto the Hyperion in the first place.

You know, Hideo Kojima, the guy behind the Metal Gear series, frequently released spoiler movies and trailers prior to his games being released that were pretty much bogus. They either were intended to mess with the fans' minds, mislead them to speculate the plot in question or just weren't considered canon.

An example would be clips of Solid Snake putting a gun in his mouth when he's in the middle east within trailers for MSG4. Fans immediately thought Snake was thinking of taking his own life in the middle east just because of that one clip. In reality after the game was released, Snake never actually did put a gun in his mouth during that first chapter.

What I'm trying to say is that Blizzard could have very well scrapped that entire scene with Zeratul aboard the Hyperion by now. There's a very good chance that they simply wanted to show that Zeratul was alive and well as show the fans that he will be trying to warn Jim Raynor of events to come. It doesn't mean that he will actually show up on the Hyperion, especially since those clips were literally shown at big events years ago. The story mode could have changed a lot by now.

[Kimera757]

There's a rumor Zeratul can blink. Apparently the info is from datamined stuff, so I don't know how reliable it is.

And apparently star relics can cloak (re: StarCraft comic).
