That’s what I always come back for too

Is it wrong that i actually shed a tear when i heard " My life for Aiur" at the end ?

@@enzzodaniel866 nothing wrong with that, my life for aiur!

How's Aiur?

that's incredible!

Good job man..

That sounds completely awesome! I would love nothing more than to work on voices in such a setting! It clearly shows, and it’s wonderfully done! Thank you!

+EnriqueIglesiasBG's wife for hire!

For Aiur!

+Sumail Artanis was the Executor in the first game.

+Sean Trevathan I think Sumail means Hierarch in full armor.

+Sean Trevathan he was only a praetor back then

+Abraxisvirus He was an executor with aldaris sent by the conclave to advice him which is played by the player (You). Then became praetor when Aiur fell.

Yes, zeitgeist

For my first time watching this, or anyone for that matter? Who hadn't?

+Philippe I wonder what happened to him. He didn't even appear in LotV campaign.

+Bekir Can Celep *Spoilers* He was Akhundelar. He might have died, or worse becoming a slave to Amon.

+August Sadolin Too bad, we thought we can play Kaldalis, or at least see him

+Bekir Can Celep I think he is the Zealot in the first trailer.

My wife for hire!

And it makes the meeting between Artanis and Zeratul shortly after (where Zeratul is saying the invasion must be paused, and Artanis responds that too much has been sacrificed and too many lives are now on the line to stop) all the more poignant.

I loved it too! I just wonder what this is? Is this a cinematic from the campaign? Is it just some short story? What is this and why?

+LowkoTV is it just me? or does Lowko look really short in that pic? its like he's 5'2 or something

+LowkoTV I love it too!

+Dillon Layton It's a short cinematic, a teaser of what is to come in LotV.

+LowkoTV me too

Yeah, they said it slower!

If only humans could do the same...

Bartosz Skorupa humans would only unite if something bad happens(like wiping out more tha half the population). but we wont be as badass as kaldalis and artanis lol

supercoolguy43 420th like woot woot

Bartosz Skorupa Humans fight for home every day.

***** I know they're a superior race, to question that would be extremely arrogant, at least in comparison to what humanity is portrayed as in this universe. But even they have their own flaws, which this video describes. It's like... "politics of the gods", if that makes any sense. They have their own sociological world, which in some ways is not too different from our own history. We unite each other with religion time and time again, but never fail to somehow find a way to destroy ourselves over it.

Well said sir. That also the reason why I like Artanus too. He does his actions for the sake of his people, he really has good traits of a leader. Also how he questions his actions and thinks before he acts, that is a good trait of any being. What is even better quality he has is his decision not to repeat history.

That's exactly why I consider Artanis to be a great leader.

"and they used to be primitive as we are once too" still they could use telepathy even as "primitives" :p

much wow True, but their mental abilities were much less complex in those times. The creation of the Khala enabled the Protoss to actually feel eachothers feelings, along with the ability to sort all of those countless voices and feelings and understand them all in an endless stream - a constant state of euphoria where a single person could know the exact thoughts and feelings of literally trillions of others within a certain range in distance while being able to process that data without being overwhelmed. Before that, the basics of Protoss telepathy could be compared to a text message. You cannot tell the tone and you cannot truly know if the message is a lie. With the Khala, it was impossible to lie. That's why Artanis goes through a bit of culture-shock when he goes around living without the Khala after being connected with it all his life prior - he said he feels so "dark and alone" like he's not really there anymore with his people even when physically being surrounded by them on his ship or on the battlefield. He goes through an interesting process of learning how to understand and trust the same kind of natural sense of empathy that we humans and the other Khala-less protoss have been relying on.

+Jesse Cox Hi jesse

+reffan16 the second one was fun in its own way, it just wasn't an rts.

+Feral Reason original sc its the way

+M Perez I think to disney have the resources for this proyect

plzzzzzz movie needed many just like this and if possible like the trailer

The problem is the story most of it is covered by games & cutscenes except for the xelnaga but it will be uncovered in legacy of void

HornyTrolllololololool Dude the whole game is a lore more mysterious then destiny

My life for the Earth

Hits even harder after zeratul says it.

Kaldalis probably had felt that first, so he might be the first to peek his leader's feelings. That's why he warped in and find him

+D. Woo They're called zealots for a reason.

+D. Woo i agree that made the hair on my arms stand up

+D. Woo Yes it is about him- the short story's title is: cold symetry

+D. Woo Yeah it's awesome storytelling

hero unit can pilot a lot of things. Like Tassadar from a high templar that can attack to pilot a carrier that ram the overmind

Lol yeah. And he used to have pleb cloth armour too. Now he's pretty pimped out.

Either I skipped this or Tia scene wasn't in the game.

@@timinatr99 it isn't in the game :))

I remember playing as artanis in the first game, commanding protoss in the campaign.

i still weighted zeratul's more than this a little

Goosebumps!

I totally agree! It wasn't a simple request, but the tone contained a "Come on... you know that only you can lead us home, you know that you must." feeling. Simply amazing!

Any bets he was being influenced by Amon?

+David Henchman How do you spell his name?

Dan Spataru Not sure, sorry :(

+Dan Spataru I'm goint to assume Kel'danis (Or Kel'daris) or something along those lines.

+Dan Spataru I think Khaldaris, maybe?

Pfft men aren't men. The nuances of these characters and races doesnt ascribe to the smallness of man women demo rep race religion. These are just better beings

YOU made me believe in that... *tears* :'(

+KeViNZP My life for Aiur

I wonder do they shed tears

Gabriel Barsch They were, shortly after the Overmind was created on Zerus, he needed a way for the zerg to get off of Zerus, as the zerg was quickly diminishing Zerus, that's when the some behemoths (precursors of leviathans) came to the Zerus system, so the Overmind lured them to Zerus only to assimilate them into the swarm as leviathans.

@@nicholascox9547 i think it might be similar to knowing dysneyland exists and actually seeing it

I’m inclined to believe that the ones that served the Overmind weren’t as big or destructive. Kerrigan evolved them to be massive and gave them attacks.

The overmind could create wormholes between worlds.

@@Subzwari1987 so just mega overlords?

That was the right time to say that.

The line "A world for all Protoss, once more." hit me hard, man!

+KeViNZP "Come back Artanis, Lead Us Home" My life for Aiur!

+KeViNZP same

+Andrew Leung He is. :D

+Andrew Leung - Thanks Andrew! I was honored to give voice to Kaldalis! "My Life For Auir"

+Stephen Stanton You're voice really fits the character and his physique. Thanks for the great work.

+Gurren Catnip - And thank you for the kind words Gurren! :)

+Stephen Stanton absolutely awesome - you can literally feel the strength of Kaldalis' will through whole dialog. Briliant!

Press f to pay respect.

The existence of a Purifier version of a Templar does not guarantee that the particular Templar is dead. While the likelihood that Kaldalis didn't survive the surface battle is high because being a vanguard deployed soldier pretty much almost guarantees that, it is still possible that he is alive as only the Purifiers posses the technology to copy personalities. Because contrary to what one might assume, Dragoons, Stalkers and Immortals are not copied personalities but a new mechanical body and the Templar inside are still the exact same original Templar before they got inserted into the mech. So if Kaldalis lived long enough, up to the point that Artanis found and reactivated the Purifiers then that would mean that Kaldalis is still alive. Because the Auir Reclamation happened before the Purifier Discovery and Reactivation. Because only then would they be able to copy his personality into the Purifier Database and not before that. Remember they copied Fenix when he got inserted into a Dragoon, which means his original body was already destroyed but his mind was intact. Of course the 99% copy would likely be impossible at that point. I believe the Khala had somehing to do with the precision of the copied personality, but that is no longer available to them since they've severed their Nerve Cords.

F

Kaldalis is the zealot without the eye. Hes not dead at the end of legacy.

but there is no official info on his death

+Nathan Mojica En taro Zeratul

+MrDarkenson they pretty much told a hour's worth of story in the deepest 5 mins you could ever get.....

+Matej Polyak But there were arbiters in the ending scene, doesn't that count as something? :L

+Matej Polyak Lol, most of those heroes are dead, only a few of them became Martyrs, like Fenix, Raynor mentions him in HotS, also, The Confederacy and the UED are gone, they where wiped. Cerebrates are useless now, the Overmind is dead, and Kerrigan doesnt need them, the closest thing to a cameo was Daggoth's Brood.

tassadar was there in Wings of Liberty and passes on the final piece of the puzzle to Zeratul at the start of Legacy of the Void. WIth that final piece, Zeratul rushes to reach Artanis, who he believes will be critical in the final phase of the legend, along with Kerrigan.

+MrDarkenson no it's not lol. the story has not been good since brood war.

Best thing Blizzard has made in the past 10 years

Why got no En Taro Fenix 😭😭

en taro Tassadar.

+rjcripe tru

+rjcripe photosynthesis or a form of it

+rjcripe and reproduce.

+rjcripe Khalai Protoss (the regular ones) absorbs sunrays much like plants but in an far more effective manner, in one of the Dark Templar Saga books an Protoss prisoner was kept underground for a few days and was hardly able to stand on her own legs when she was brought to the surface. Dark Templars im not sure but it relates to their genetical difference from the rest, some extreme change made them be able to survive in areas without sun after their exile.

+rjcripe Straws

I think it is

Herpvid de Derp yes

Yes, you can see here that Kaldalis has a zerg claw wound on his face, and one of his eyes is blinded. One of the Zealots in the opening cinematic has the same injuries. Kaldalis also said that he wanted to be among the first to land on Aiur, thus we can assume that squad of 3 Zealots, 2 High Templars, and 1 Probe were the "Tip of the Spear"

Yah it is man. Very sad and strange that he wasn't a character in the campaign. My guess is he became one with the kalla during the battle:(.

Yes, the Akhundelar is sent to place the first pylon on the surface (i guess the zerg destroyed the others), so the rest of the army can warp in

I read that as "Khardasians"... Wtf is wrong with my eyes.

+LieutenantAlaki like artansis said many do not survive the first wave....

Kaldaris totally would've.

+LieutenantAlaki he did in the opening cinematic he was the last zealot

But Kaldahlis die becuse he is an A.I in fenixses army.

That was a very good line. But the counter argument of Kaldalis was the one that gave me chills.

That one and his focus on the lives lost during the fall were the most impactful if you ask me. He is a very compassionate protoss who cares deeply about the lives of those under his command, not something you get to see often.

+Caleb Yu if you were standing there, in that moment, you would say the same :) 4 words....a lifetime's worth of meaning.

+Caleb Yu *My wife for hire !*

+Caleb Yu And you comment is 50% "My life for Aiur!". How ironic.

+DopestDope SquareEnix have thought of that too about their FF, but in the end, the movie production cost was even bring their studio to brink of destruction. so, well, umm...

and.. they already have a cash cow. because of WOW

sKy sharK But i wonder why this isn't going through their minds, like normal people

+Raa Senja Ni (SECTION) Saw some professional animator in the comments section of another youtube video saying otherwise. He said it isn't as expensive as everyone makes it out to be and that Blizzard could well do it if they chose.

+DopestDope let wait and see what will happen to Warcraft movie first. If the movie gets a good amount of profit then its not impossible to see a Warcraft movie in the near future. 5 to 10 years of waiting perhaps

+TheTeslaEffect11 Rather Xel'naga. Protoss are more like Quarians :P

Except the Quarian Fleet is just a bunch of civilian ships with large cannons sloppily tacked on. The Protoss Golden Armada is the single most powerful fleet in the Korprulu sector with the exception of the United Earth Dictoriate Expeditionary Fleet.

They more like a combination of Turian and Asari wielding tech that makes the Proteans look like Krogans.

Poor protoss. They always have to struggle to survive. No matter what. Nothing gives them a break.

Didnt the swarm mother end up fighting that side of her and used her abilities to kill the zerg that went feral and clean up her mess and ains?

+Moses Wong He was a mere scout back then in Brood war.

he may had been an scout only, but wasnt that bad to be the youngest preator ever

I think that an average protoss can live up to 1500 years...so he is pretty young

+Mauricio Alejandro Rivera Miraval And in vanilla SC1, you ARE Artanis.

Alistair Jephte Caseñas That's been cut, the developers admitted that they were wrong. Preators are lower on the ladder(rank) than executors. So you, as the player, couldn't have been Artanis since he would go from being an executor, a higher member of the hierarchy, to being a praetor.

what?

Really? xD well at least you didn't hear it in spanish (mi vida por auir) xD

+Toa Onua 5:13 The massive size of the Golden Armada just made me squeal in an ecstatic way.

+Toa Onua im pretty sure that taking it is the 1st mission

+Abraxisvirus and then Amon makes a mess of things

+Toa Onua Perhaps it'll pull a mass effect and Amon will make his final stand on Aiur.

+Toa Onua I think it's actually the first three missions of the campaign are reclaiming Aiur.

:P

There is actually someone who managed to do that

zionchar11 Not even gonna press the issue. We're looking at a video about a sci-fi game, and we reach a discussion about politics. That's too quick of a discussion, if you ask me. Way beyond the topic I want to discuss, as well.

Regardless of Starcraft, that line shows that heroes like Kaldalis are the ones who allow freedom. Like another character in the game, Jim Raynor, who is famous for saying, "freedom is worth fighting for."
