Is Tassadar the worst Executor in the history of the Khala?

What game is this?

Because the Protoss are tards and Aldaris was right.

So Artanis did the right thing

Given that Artanis is supposed to be the protagonist of both Protoss campaigns (including the one where he is a 3rd person NPC - I have no idea how that works), I think he was just following terrible orders this whole time.

>lets piss off the race that outnumbers us 100 to 1

Protoss only nuked fringe terran outposts. Even they would of had trouble should a sizeable Terran fleet decide to defend their worlds, regardless of their advanced technology.

At the beginning of Starcraft, the Zerg were not so numerous. It was only through Tassadar's incompetence that they were allowed to multiply and outnumber them 100 to 1.

I'm talking about Terran.

I was talking about Artanis killing Zeratul, even if it was under mindcontrol.

Oh, I see. To be honest I got the impression that the Terrans were never any threat at all to the Protoss despite outnumbering them, until the Protoss got fucked up by the Zerg.

While the Protoss were still nuking Terran worlds, the Terrans never mustered up any response, making them seem totally helpless.

Yeah, not true. Zerg are an ancient race that was already multiplying in the millions, it's just that they had low presence in the Terran parts of the Koprulu sector. Char and Zerus were always swarming with Zerg as far as we are concerned.

Overmind had multiple Cerebrates at his side; there had to be plenty of them for them to later morph a new Overmind in BW.

It's more the fact that Confederacy was too busy with its own internal politics than caring about the Protoss. Reminder that Aiur was a "secret world" until Zeratul blew its cover. They just didn't really have a reason to invade Terrans or whatever. Protoss were quite isolationist.

Zeratul sacrificing himself to free Artanis from the mind control proves that Zeratul isn't evil.

I don't really think he's particularly dumb, either. He just didn't see the whole picture yet and had to wander around looking at ancient shit while probably huffing Terrazine until he figured it out.

inferior to TA

I don't think we should consider the Zerg on Zerus -- they're just feral and keeping their own population controlled through predation.

I guess you're right that it's unclear how many Zerg there are at the beginning of Starcraft compared to when they invaded Aiur. It just seems obvious that they grew after their humble beginnings invading tiny Terran outposts.

Maybe it's the effect of doing 2's campaigns one after the other but I was glad that Zeratul kicked the bucket at the start of LotV. The absolute stupidest shit in WoL involved him and HotS was still fresh on my mind.

Heroes of the Storm

>starcraft 1 manual mentions that Zerus is a harsh volcanic planet and primal zerg looked like relatively small parasitic worms, making larva the closest thing to the original zerg. Primal Zerg weren't sentient, but possessed a strong drive to selectively breed their hosts for better survival in harsh conditions of their home planet, which is why Xel-Naga got interested in them and why they made sentient Overmind to direct their natural self-improvement efforts in a bid to create a perfect species
>starcraft 2 - Zerus is an ebin jungle planet full of dindu orc dinosaurs, Overmind was made by Sargeras to corrupt noble Zerg savages
Fuck, I hate Starcraft 2

>A planet will always remain the same
Now begone with you shitposter

Maybe the xel'naga changed the planet?

>In Starcraft 1 dialogue, Mengsk says the Confederacy created the Zerg in labs as a weapon
Was he lying or just didn't know any better? Or is it a plot hole?

He's just making silly assumptions to make Confederacy look worse.

Except it was containment at best, it was never a long term strategy

minecraft

I guess he's just lying then, since he said he saw it with his own eyes. Probably just a way to get Raynor, Kerrigan, and the commander riled up against the Confederacy.

Just whole concept falls apart, because retards who jumped on SC recently don't know that Zeratul didnt know about void energies of dark templar being able ti kill celebrate (until it was killed by this). he also didnt know about overmind existence and how he would link his mind with Overmind after kiling celebrate. he just exterminated celebrate like any other enemy lifeoform

>A planet can change it's biochemical composition on a macro level in a couple of years cosmologically speaking

And onether fails
>muh invisibility
game mechanic =/= actual lore happening. And its easier for DT to get deepe rinto some instalation than running away from terran blockade

>muh dark power killed Tassadar
He channeled both powers to go nuclear. Its normal for archon/temlar to explode using psi energy. Not present ingame for balance reasons retard

>hurr durr raszagal brainwashed
It becomes clear that zerg cant mutate protoss body so it was completly wtf moment when Kerrigan claimed to actualy infest raszagal. When Aldaris found what is happening, instead of telling others with "proofs" what is happening, he starts rebelion by force.
>hurr durr aldaris kerrigan
What a fucking retard. Game unit doesnt actually fully represent character standing.

>hurr durr he didnt use that and that knowing THAT things
Play the actual game. Retard

You are a fucking retard for posting not only dumbshit and headcannon, but because you posted plebbit tier scumshit from actual plebbit

Command and Conquer: Warcraft expansion

>couple of years
For all we known it's been million of years between the overmind leaving the planet and Kerrigan arriving to it.

Why didn't the protoss just nuke char?

>no remastered cutscenes

The one thing we can take from Starcraft lore is that the Protoss, despite being a "warrior" culture with super tech, is actually terrible at strategy, tactics, diplomacy and long-term thinking. In a way, it fits, becasue what they really are is a tribal culture that inherited Xel'naga tech and barely managed to hold itself together as a civilization through religious zealotry. Pygmys with post-nuclear technology.

All the eagles were in Mordor so no one could fly the bombs to Char.

>is actually terrible at strategy, tactics, diplomacy and long-term thinking.
their politics were a mess that's why
