Been receiving a few comments telling me "Amon was not the leader of the Xel'naga." I know. This was due to a bit of bad communication on my part tbh. What I meant was that Amon lead the Xel'naga that discovered the Zerg. NOT that he was the leader of the entire race, sorry for any confusion! I would annotate that but the ability to add annotations in RU-vid was removed some time ago, sorry! :S

@PurpleSnake 7 лет назад

This is basically a retelling of Zerg's history with the focus on Abathur. I love it!

Organism Abathur favorite character. Video well put together and informative. Crisism about lore facts unimportant to creator evolution. Will evolve larvae of new subscriber without help from abathur with videos. Must take sample of subcribtion.

@vladtheimpaler9577 8 лет назад

I think Abathur also has microscopic vision, because he was able to analyze Kerrigans DNA just by locking at her.And he also said in one of starcraft 2 cinematics that he locks at flesh and sees the DNA strands and sequences.

+youluvana Would be an interesting hero design. shorten his burrow cool-down to still make him mobile enough to get that sweet experience soak

@roeyzfaigmanimiranda2038 5 лет назад

so the overmind was the true hero?......for figuring out Amon's true plan and then planning against it?

@ZXMFG 8 лет назад

Ummmm got a few problems with this video (only at the start though!) Amon wasn't the leader of the Xel'naga, he went rogue with 1 other Xel'Naga (Narud/Duran) and wanted to break the cycle and leave the universe to be under his control/domination, but needed to create the perfect host body. The Purity of Essence is what made the Zerg very unique and able to evolve rapidly, and Amon's gift to them was the Overmind/Hive-mind mentality. Larger, more advanced Primal Zerg were aware that this was a bad thing as they had cognitive reasoning, unlike the zerg who were weak/unevolved and sided with Amon as they could feel his raw power. The image used to describe the Primal Zerg is the most powerful Primal to exist and was present when Amon first corrupted the Zerg. Most of the information past 3:20 seems to be correct, but the first few minutes leading up to Abathur isn't 100% right. I'll leave the conclusion to Kerrigan for those who play Legacy of the Void to find out.

@LoreoftheCards 8 лет назад

+ZXMFG Cheers for this, was mainly trying to skim that as much as I possibly could, though only came to SC during the second game. NEED to find time to play the first all the way through. I didn't mean to give the impression Amon took all the Xel'naga with him. More than willing to admit a few details may be a little off and thanks for educating me :)

@vladtheimpaler9577 8 лет назад

+ZXMFG Narud wasn't Amons only servant, there were more Xel'naga helping him but they were all killed on Zeraus,except Narud.

@apotheosis140 7 лет назад

Six Gamers feel shame

@TomTheGreatIsHere 8 лет назад

Kerrigan's ending is clear. In the final expansion, she consumed a xelnaga and became one. She then killed amon, and used her power to transform into a human again.

@philipjkean 8 лет назад

+TomTheGreatIsHere True Kerrigan became a Xel'Naga and killed Amon but she only appeared to Raynor as a human after a lengthy hiatus to reunite with him. We actually have no idea if she was still Xel'Naga OR assuming she did became human.. what became of her incredible power? SC3 confirmed!

@jame9169 8 лет назад

+Phil Kean That whole cutscene just seemed like drunk raynor's imagination taking over to me, guess we'll find out if they ever do continue the raynor/kerrigan story.

@danielnunez1587 7 лет назад

TomTheGreatIsHere i mean it looked pretty bright iutside of the bar almost like when they had kissed in the empty white area in jims mind so my guess is that kerrigan is just creating an image for raynor to see

@PurpleSnake 7 лет назад

That entire scene is very dream-like in every way. This is confusing though as we're not given an answer to whether it's just a dream either Sarah or Jim is having, she projecting this into his head or whatever it possibly could be. It's a very interesting and beautiful moment and I really hope we'll be gettin' that answer sometime in the future!

@LokiTheAnsuz 8 лет назад

As far as I know, the Xel'Naga (the good ones) created the primal zerg, but after the fiasco with the protoss (interfering with their evolution) they decided to leave the zerg alone, satisfied with their purity of essence... A long time after the Xel'Naga retreated to their dimension Amon found them and bound them to the Overmind, the other Xel'Naga learned about that and tried to stop him being butchered in the process (again, the protoss also did that to their creators)... And the rest of the story you told is incredibly accurate :D (except maybe Kerrigan's fate, that seemed pretty clear to me but I see your point) I'm obsessed with your voice btw

Abathur probably couldnt get as big as the map without physical issues. He makes similar comments about the stuff he did to Zagara, stating resources and security. There's no easy way out usually.

I don't think Amon was necessarily the 'leader' of the Xel'naga. He was one among them who turned sour (or at least that's my recent understanding after having just finished a full playthrough last week).

He was the leader of a faction of the xelnaga who rejected the cycle of the god being narud one of those

@Broockle 5 лет назад

12:30 That's inaccurate Think about it, do you need to survive -100 and below when you're in the vacuum of space? The extreme cold resistance is only needed in places with really cold air, liquid or solid cause that's where you actually freeze and feel cold. In a vacuum the only way to lose heat is through radiation, which is a much slower process than conduction.

@hisokamorow6709 5 лет назад

"Vacuum is a good insulator, but outer space is also very very cold. That means that, although the heat transfer may take quite some time, the equilibrium temperature you will eventually reach is quite close to absolute 0"

Can you make more zerg based Heros of the storm ?

@vladtheimpaler9577 8 лет назад

There are a couple of things I dont get : if the Xel'naga that attacked Zeraus to stop Amon were "god-like" then how did the zerg manage to kill them all? And if the Zerg consumed the Xel'naga they should have gained some of there vast power not just information By the way James do you enjoy Starcraft lore as much as wow even if its smaller and complete??

@LoreoftheCards 8 лет назад

+Vlad the Impaler Yeah I can see the confusion :). While the Xel'naga are god-like they are still very much mortal. They have often been perceived as gods by the other races but they actually aren't. There were just literally THAT many zerg, you kill one, three step in to take their place, their numbers often seem unending (hence the popular "zerging" term for rush tactics). This was only a group of Xel'naga, not the entire race too. How the absorbtion works in the swarm I'm 100% sure, perhaps it is spread over all Zerg, gaining a little of the power so it gets spread thin. Or it was focused on the Overmind, who too was massively powerful and took great sacrifice to defeat. I generally enjoy WoW more due to it being well fleshed out, despite all its loopholes. There were parts of SC lore I think are great (some real stand out characters in the saga) and some I'm not a great fan of... Don't ask Chard about SCII's lore, he was not a fan :P

@quban234 8 лет назад

+Six Gamers *their bodies are still very much mortal. The just can't go back to this universe.

@vladtheimpaler9577 8 лет назад

+Six Gamers James I think I found out the answer to my own question. The XeLNaga are born within the Void,a dark dimension that transcends reality,and there souls are anchored to it(just like demons in the twisting nether in WoW).The Xelnaga are unable to leave this place so they create a physical form in the real world and transfer there consciousness in it.When there bodies are destroyed there souls return to the void.Those artificial forms have only a fraction of their power and do not contain their essence.So that explains why the Zerg were able to defeat the Xelnaga on Zeraus, because those Xelnaga were nowhere near the power of the actual ones , and the zerg were unable to consume their essence because their host bodies did not contain their essence , but they did contain their consciousness so the zerg were able to gain their knowledge of the protoss.
