    I won't hold my breath to that. Blizzard already said that Raynor aside, the Protoss have little interest in terran matters.

    Not to mention if an alliance is needed in such a way, I can see the first thing Artanis will do is the psionic choke hold on Valerian (like what Kerrigan did in HotS) and say, "Don't take us for fools, Valerian Mengsk. From the time he spent with us, James Raynor has told us that the reason the Queen of Blades existed is because your father left Kerrigan on Tarsonis to die at the hands of the Zerg. Your father is the reason why such a threat was created in the first place. If you think for even a moment we won't suspect you're just a cheap carbon copy of your father, you're dead wrong."

    Then... why are we going to Korhal?
    Aaand sold.


    Be it through hallowed grounds or lands of sorrow
    The Forger's wake is bereft and fallow

    Is the residuum worth the cost of destruction and maiming;
    Or is the shaping a culling and exercise in taming?

    The road's goal is the Origin of Being
    But be wary through what thickets it winds.

    "At what point did Archimonde make his debut to the world in WarCraft 3?"

    Hmm, I actually forgot, it might have been the end of the Undead campaign or the beginning of the Night Elf one, it was pretty late.

    "Not to mention if an alliance is needed in such a way, I can see the first thing Artanis will do is the psionic choke hold on Valerian (like what Kerrigan did in HotS) and say, "Don't take us for fools, Valerian Mengsk.

    I really don't see Artanis doing that, at all.

    Because after Aiur, Zeratul told Artanis to go to Korhal. It's like Artanis wanted to know what Raynor got out of the prophecy.

    While I understand the need for differentiation due to the diversity of the tribes and castes in the Protoss race, the changes in Broodwar were TOO drastic. SC2 Protoss look much better, imo, and speak to the unified nature of the race as a whole, and still differentiates them by tribes and castes by having different facial features that do not stray TOO far away from the Protoss look. The major difference in look which is a huge improvement over Broodwar was with female Protoss characters like Rohana and Selendis. They're also seemingly young since Zamara looked a bit older, from the art cover in the Dark Templar trilogy.

    I like the new Protoss look better than the Broodwar one because it seems to have more definition without being over the top.
    You found it annoying that they were so different? It wasn't a matter of one tribe looking one way, and another tribe looking another. These were individuals, with their own looks. The SC2 Protoss are so similar, I can't tell them apart. With the sole exception of Zeratul, and that's only because he dresses differently -- the difference is not in his face. Sure, one 'Toss has more elaborate armor than another, but in the end they all look like generic aliens with gold crap all over themselves.

    I think it's gross that a race should look so similar, too. Humans look vastly different from each other, and that's nice. I want that for Protoss too. And the female Protoss are only an improvement because there's more of them, and Raszagal, being dang old, isn't so pretty.

    Well, I can't argue with taste, but I can quietly judge you.

    Out of obligation to make the previous entries seem more relevant to the current story in LotV?

    Seriously, I assume it's probably to follow-up on the Hybrids because of the Dominion's previous link with them and/or a stating point for them to investigate Duran/Narud.
    Yes, that's right! That is indeed ME on the right.

    Yeah but that would require Zeratul to know Mengsk had been breeding hybrids. There was nothing in WoL and HotS to indicate he knew that.

    Unless you're expecting us to believe that after HotS ended, he came into contact with Kerrigan again and she told him about what happened on Skygeirr...

    That's never stopped Blizz from making other random stuff happen as if it it was always going to happen but we just didn't know about it at the time. It's the whole basis of Sc2. I'm alarmed at how one can still resort to this justification regarding anything that happens in Sc now at all (as if it still held some weight) and still keep a straight face really.

    Ranting aside, the previous entries weren't following Zeratul so there's plenty of "wiggle room". Guess he had to be doing something worthwhile in the meantime whilst we followed the exploits of Raynor and Kerrigan, right? He was tracking down stuff about Hybrids afterall. Not to mention that he is frickin' Zeratul (like Batman - he does impossible things because he's... well... he's Batman)! Unless that too is worth nothing now and that he really has become some senile cosmic hobo.
