Starcraft: Brood War - Zerg Mission 5: True Colors

[WolfgerLion]

Fenix! he was my fav'ed character...

[buldren0101]

Jim Raynor: I'M GONNA KILL YOU, KERRIGAN!

5 years later

*Raynor kills best friend to save Kerrigan*

[01Blank10]

i dont like that last order on the objectives list :(

[setharoth114]

Fenix - "You won't find me easy prey"

2 seconds later

Raynor - "Fenix.... No...."

[MrBarisyesil]

fucking best story ever and please dont use cow cheat :)-

[DaAznThug]

@MrBarisyesil starcraft 1 and BW story is the best.

[RetlocLive]

Blizzard sure does like these sneak attack missions.

Frozen throne had it when the Forsaken attacked Deteroc and Wings of Liberty had one with the Odin attack on the Korhal TV Stations.

[XlordchaosforteX]

At first I didn't think it was possible but I 1-hit Fenix with the queen....

[DiewUlti]

Why Fenix,he is so young templar warrior.

R.I.P. Edmund Duke

En taro Fenix

[Gouki6669]

what i hate about this is, that after fenix dies, raynor swore to avenge him, an kill kerrigan, he said "im the man thats gonna kill you" , and yet... when he had the chance in sc2 he didnt because of what zeratul said.

Lets just hope he will stick to his promise in either heart of the swarm or legacy of the void. I wanna see that bitch dead

[timemonkey]

@Gouki6669 1. They need her alive until, at the very least, the Dark Voice is dealt with. To kill her before then would doom all life in the universe. 2. Sarah Kerrigan is not responsable for the actions of the Queen Of Blades, she was as the Overmind made her, a super powered, murderous sociopath. With her humanity restored she's essentially a different person, it would be punishing an innocent.

[Gouki6669]

@timemonkey hehe, true true..., but as is said, he might still kill her in the end , after she saved the universe :P

I know she was controlled by the overmind, but she killed my favourite protoss :(

And if you seen trailer from heart of the swarm.... she is still evil from what it seems...

[Hellriper12]

@timemonkey she was responsible during brood war,,,, or at least she was until blizzard decided to treat the whole thing as a second personality on star craft 2..

but to be honest , it wouldn't feel so cheep if I hadn't had to wait 12 years for the resolution of the story

[juanma9511]

why fenix and duke ? noooo

[TerrorandLove4u]

What happened to the incredible Kerrigan shown in this video. Starcraft 2 what have you done.

[copershark]

@TerrorandLove4u kerrigan in Starcraft 2 is more like the Overmind, forced to follow here commands to destroy all who dare to fight the Fallen one. Heart of the Swarm will bring back that awsome ness of Kerrigan once more, and with that i just cant wait my self to get my hand on the game and play it :D

Heart of the Swarm will be awsome, a Hero to fallow you throw the whole campaign and with out the damn ''do not let die'' text showing up (mostly i hopp) :)

[ZergSwarmling]

@copershark in starcraft 2, she was merely following her genetic code into following the survival for the zerg and to bring them into the largest dominant force in the sector (and possibly the galaxy). Now De-infested of that code, our Kerrigan now has her own life in her hands, and can do her own choices and deeds, throughout her lifetime she was always in someone else's shadow, doing their work and not having a title herself. Now it changes :o

[crustymethaddict]

kerrigan is soo badass in the mission shes sooo awesome.

that said i was shock when "that" happend

[jamster48]

Fenix: "You'll not find me easy prey"

Player: *Trollface* *spawn broodlings*

:P

[mastermaker1996]

not FENIX T--T

[Csanad121]

I loved fenix

[Malukete53]

R.I.P - Edmund Duke the iron admiral...

"Y'all need some good ol' fashioned discipline." - Edmund Duke

[seffypwnage]

This is why she's the queen bitch of the universe. She killed Raynor's 368 year older brother from another mother! :(

[SpartanOfRome]

@seffypwnage actually....hes 368 years older then raynor.....soo that makes him....400+? give or take a few o.0?

[M4ximili4no92]

fenix should have been mention when raynor talks with matt horner about the guilt he feels for kerrigan actions

[ipot399]

Too bad Blizz changed the story in SC2 and now Jim's vow to be the one to kill Kerrigan will never come true.

[torm223300]

Sarah Kerrigan disliked this video.

[Wierdperson31]

You made Fenix intro Broodlings!? DAMN YOU!

[samirgeagea12]

when I first saw "Kill Duke" in the mission briefings, I was like pfiouu, at last, how did he live this long ?

[CerberusT93]

@samirgeagea12 I loved duke for some reason =(

[CaradhrasAiguo49]

wth it shouldn't be so easy to kill hero units, especially in such a lowly manner... Blizzard should have disabled Spawn Broodling for use against heros

[garvielloken17]

@CaradhrasAiguo49 i imagine they intended to because it never happened in starcraft

[Askhat08]

-But you said, revenge was secondary to defeating the UED!

-I lied ^_^

[leegeorgeson]

Duke had it coming, read up on his nuclear genocide attacks he ordered, Duke is not just an asshole he is a monster lol

[vollmain13]

thanks for uploading this!

[TheInferno247]

rest in pieces Duke And FENIX

[MyAnswerIsKatarn]

Rest in peace both Duke and Fenix.

[patricio065]

What happen whit the cerebrate in SC2??

[desthmoneses]

@patricio065 Kerrigan kills it when she no longer needs it in between brood war and SC2.

[leegeorgeson]

@desthmoneses does she actually kill it? I know she bolsters the Queens in the New Swarm but it seems it would be in her best interest to keep a large psionic entity as a commander lol :)

[desthmoneses]

@leegeorgeson No she kills it. The storyline is very clear, she killed off all cerebrates when they ceased being useful.

[jjkillerbird]

This mission is one of the missions, I really hated. Not because of difficulty or anything, but because Fenix was doomed to die... Not only that, I even had to kill him myself... That succs so hard, I wish he was still alive in starcraft 2! He's the greates of all protoss heroes in my opinion. Altrough Zeratul and Tassadar are really badass, too.

i also have to say, even if he's supposed to be an unsympatic evil guy, I really liked Duke.

[Telenil]

@jjkillerbird More than one player felt bad when he killed Fenix. However, now that he is dead, I wouldn't want him resurrected in any shape or form. He is one of those characters whose death became a part of their legend, like Uther in Warcraft 3. Besides, if any hero players like can be resurrected, someone being killed is meaningless. Why would we care for characters who will be back whatever happens?

[jjkillerbird]

@Telenil

I didn't say, I want him to be "resurrected" in any way, I'm just saying, it's really sad, that he died^^

[pirateking193]

@tf08js2 ot can be both. the books implied that she did have a evil side, but that the infestation boosted it. it was a bit of both.

[RadeonX0X]

@tf08js2 It was the infestation from the beginning. Kerrigan wanted to liberate the Koprulu sector and was opposed to people being slaughtered by the zerg thanks to the Psi Emitter. When she was infested, she just wanted to kill... makes sense, doesn't it?

[D0abarrelr0ll]

Great revenge you got in SC2, there, Jim.

[orochimaruisugly]

LOL @ ur scourges

dukes a tough nig

[xMarty182x]

"Fenix!! Noooo...."

Starcraft 2

"Fenix? Whooo?"

[goldman77700]

@xMarty182x yeah he's not even mentioned once there is he? Raynor seemed to forgotten.

[7heaven100]

Kerrigan did what she did but because some game programmers are ***** she is going to just walk away with it because she is the only hope of the universe-st000pid Blizzard.Without even explaining how she will save it.

Yeah,Raynor is truly a man that keeps his word-if only I had 100 Battlecruisers Yamato Gun him.The fact that he decided to spare Kerrigan and forget about Fenix gave me a lot of pain,even more because Jimmy is my most favorite..

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 they did imply it. if she rules the swarm the DV can't use it. as such, the others will have a chance against the dv and his army. And no she won't walk away. she will have to work towards redemption and face the darkness within

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 Yeah,Tassadar said so.But this frustrates me even more.Doesn't that mean that,at least story-wise,the Zerg are the most powerful race and they can't be stopped? Ok,the Hybrids will be along and they 're really powerful,but come on.Terran and Protoss together-and their numbers can compensate with those of the Zerg-Raynor said there were more Protoss that he imagined.

As we saw,she couldn't resist her infestation,she didn't fight any darkness.Now,I don;t think that she will still

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 also, the protoss were badly depleted following the end of the great war and brood war. Also, Kerrigan did try to resist. The overmind overpowered her. Also, she had both a good side (compassion, respect for life) and a dark side (desire for revenge on those who hurt her, rage) and the infestation most likely altered the parts of her brain that allowed for compassion and empathy, allowing the dark side to go hog wild.

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 have the evil traits and habits SPOILERS now that she is human again SPOILERS.

In a nutshell,I am mad because she did all those horrible things and the game tells us'forgive her,she wasn't responsible and only she can save the universe'.And not the slightest mention for Fenix? I've read in wikipedia in the game's page that Raynor smokes and drinks heavily not only for Kerrigan but for Fenix too-he thinks himself responsible,but for Fenix,it's nowhere hinted.Like I;ve said before

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 You need to let go. Fenix was cool, but Kerrigan deserves a chance at rehabilitation and redemption.

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 If you're referring to any novel,I have no idea,I've only played the game(s).Yes,she was controlled by the Overmind-as any Zerg in the beggining but when the Overmind was killed,she got her free will and did all those things.Now,how the infestation played a role in her decisions,I believe it's unclear-it did had something to do,we can't know how important.SPOILERS Duran was also infested but as we saw,his decisions were clearly his own SPOILERS

Doesn't Fenix deserve to be back?

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 Is it really that far fetched to assume that the overmind tampered with the part of the brain that allows compassion and empathy? bookwise she did have issues (brutally executing the sadistic instructor from the ghost program). at the very end when she is "weary" i think that's the good briefly manifesting. remember in the climax of all in when kerrigan says "Don't give up?" (it is a possible occurance if enough damage is dealt during kerrigan's final assault on the base)/

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 Well,if you have the opinion that everything related to the human-emotions,thought etc are because of specific regions of the brain and there is no soul,just matter and chemical reactions,I suppose not.Besides,the Zerg have no conscience at all,they are unaware of their own existence-that's why the Cerebrates and the Overmind were needed.

But,for my part,Kerrigan has not the slightest excuse.Herself mentioned she couldn't resist a mature Overmid's power and control over the Zerg

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 whether Kerrigan wanted to resist it-and reign supreme on the Swarm herself(final goal as we saw) or not.

Bottom line,even if she ruled the Zerg and saved the universe from the hybrids,she would just destroy it herself.Well,SPOILERS now that she is de-infested,it's logical to assume she won't,right? SPOILERS

[toxicitzi]

@7heaven100 If they can de-infest creatures that have been infested for years, why aren't they doing it more often then? they have the artifact, they should have used it on the Zerg to save whatever lives they could and the Fallen One would've remained with no Zerg backup or samples to create more Hybrids with. It's so simple..

But of course, just like with other Deus Ex Machina devices, they only work once as a plot convinience..

[7heaven100]

@toxicitzi Well,the Terrans were gone at that time (if you're referring to In Utter Darkness) and we don't know what became of the artifact.

As you say,the story has to go a certain way.

[toxicitzi]

@7heaven100 They just had to exterminate the zerg, retreat and regroup with the protoss against those hybrids with their artifact, no big deal..

I'm only saying this because of how much better they used (SPOILERS) the Psi Disrupter from Brood War. It served its purpose, but a big machine like that had a huge impact on the plot and was used more than once or twice. The device itself was considered to be the greatest threat for the Zerg at that time (SPOILERS)

[7heaven100]

@toxicitzi That's the whole point.If Terrans and Protoss fought together I doubt they would lose.SPOILERS Kerrigan beating Terran and Protoss together at the final mission was lame,crap.And the Psi Disrupter was destroyed just in the second Zerg mission,being lightly defended.Again lame SPOILERS.According to the story however Fallen One's army took on Terrans and Protoss separately.

Many times,for something(sequel movie,videogame etc) to go on,something lame must occur.

[toxicitzi]

@7heaven100 The point ot that was, Kerrigan had gained control over all broods because there was nothing else that could rival or disrupt her control

The actual mission differs because, well, it was supposed to be a hard last mission

As for the Fallen One's, idk what to make of it. First, the protoss didn't even come to help Jim against Kerrigan, so that's first draw back from a strategic assault, 2nd, Kerrigan had limitless Zerg forces.. It's not just questionable, it's very unlikely.

[7heaven100]

@toxicitzi Now I am thinking it again SPOILERS Terran and Protoss didn't work together against Kerrigan SPOILERS so it shouldn't surprise me.Now why the Protoss didn't help Raynor I think it's because SPOILERS they were separated into many sects and castes after the invasion of Aiur.That will be the main objective for the player in the Protoss campaign,to unite them.Zeratul is/was doing something that only God and Blizz team know about and Artanis became Hierarch of some(not all) Protoss.

[7heaven100]

@toxicitzi Zeratul trusted Raynor (that Jimmy wouldn't need his help) and Artanis didn't make contact with him.But his right hand,Selendis wanted to purify Haven(I don't know if that was Artanis' or Selendis' call) something very gruesome,a reminder of the old Conclave and Aldaris.I don't think Jimmy would want any help from Protoss who don't count human lives.

Now if Fenix was around he would surely tag along and bring some help for Jimmy,especially vs the Zerg.But he may be around(for example

[7heaven100]

@toxicitzi the Fenix that died here may have been a doppleganger,someone pretending to be Fenix!).SPOILERS But,the Terrans did it by themselves(half the Dominion fleet plus Raynor's team) with the help of the artifact of courseSPOILERS we should be proud of that!

I agree once more,Starcraft 2 had many good features,I liked it a lot,but you couldn't expect any less-a whole cd only for the Terrans,it ended too quickly and they messed up the story(personal opinion).

[toxicitzi]

@7heaven100 For the psi disrupter, again, that defense was from a game mission perspective and not a story one. It's really bad that they couldn't manage to introduce the story well into the actual missions, but for what's it worth the story was still much better structured and exceeds SC 2 one in every way. Emotions, serousness, drama and even in suspense.

The first package had an excellent story and the expansion while it wasn't the best, I still liked the UED and their agenda.

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 who f***** justice?

[Stormraider821]

@7heaven100 He was going to kill her, don't forget it was because of the vision Zeratul showed him that he spared her.

Originally, if Zeratul doesn't show him, he then learns that in the future, he really becomes the one who takes revenge on her by killing her himself.

[7heaven100]

@Stormraider821 Yes,the fate of the universe..But again,even himself didn;t say even a word about Fenix.And they were really close friends(supposedly).

Well Raynor said 'someday'.Perhaps-I know it's a bit far-fetched,it's just going to wait until the universe is safe.

SPOILERS You mean you learn that if you don't play the Protoss missions or at least the last one? SPOILERS

[Stormraider821]

@7heaven100 I played all four, the dark one stated the kerrigan was the only who could stop him.

It was only after the fourth mission did Raynor learn that he was the one who killed her, and doomed the universe in the future.

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 right after zeratul tells him kerrigan has to live he gets angry and starts ranting about how zeratul showed up out of nowhere. He most likely did remember. when he realized that she really could be rehabilitated he let go of his hate. also, the vision states that the terrans were wiped out and even then the power of the hybrids AND the zerg would be a lot (the hybrids have both protoss and zerg attributes).

[7heaven100]

@pirateking193 Now I remembered,SPOILERS Zeratul tells Raynor that he most likely hold her fate in his hands and he will have to decide.But,actually Findlay was the one who was going to kill her(I mean in person) SPOILERS

[pirateking193]

@7heaven100 raynor had the power to save her life. in the end he chose to rescue her.

[7heaven100]

Correction.THIS is the saddest mission in all Starcraft and Brood War.

[xxlCortez]

Raynor dislike the video, Arcturus too, but he was so pissed that he clicked on the like button.

[AdiJager]

"Jim: Kerrigan! I will be the man that will kill you someday"... yeah riiiiiiiiiight. Did someone in Blizz even noticed how much they screwed the sc2 story?

[lymaeQ]

@AdiJager In terms of plot cohesion, Brood war made a mockery of all the events that took so long to build up before.... The story should have followed directly with SC2, no UED, no crazy Zerg-Terran alliances that twisted the established relationship among Kerrigan, Mengsk and Raynor to pragmatic limits...I mean they were able to put their past behind, feelings aside and work together!!!

[gexthegecko]

@AdiJager You have to remember what Kerrigan said. "I don't think you have what it takes to be a killer."

[rapidspit]

@AdiJager

I was thinking the same thing, they really screwed up

in fact the game all together turned out kinda disappointing

[hieulelam]

Blizzard, please revive Fenix and put him in Legacy of the Void. please, please, please. i have always love his valiant character, i bet that people don't want him to disappeared forever. i know i don't

[7heaven100]

@hieulelam TOTALLY agree.Who knows? Maybe Zeratul will discover some sort of a forbidden ritual and...

Also,don't forget about the Preservers-all about Fenix must be somewhere there.

[selemanecu]

@hieulelam we saw tassadar maybe we can see Fenix who knows?

[inc2000glw]

everybody wants her head..lol...literally

[txchen123]

Fenix is a dragoon. So Fenix would already be dead. Dragoons are fallen zealots.

[NotCliffyB]

@txchen123 Dragoons aren't dead zealots, they're wounded zealots.

[ManNotFoundDog]

I didn't give a damn about Duke, but I was reluctant to kill Fenix.

[EvilRyuGuy]

Fenix was badass, but Kerrigan is one heck of a villain, so it's not so bad if she is the one that kills him.

[tenkenroo]

This mission works better (storywise) if you kill duke first.

[Keep701]

Kerrigan showed the last trace of her conscience at the end of this mission. After this, it just disappeared.

[pirateking193]

@Keep701 its there. It's just buried deep until the final phase of ALL IN.

[pollotierrez]

its better when the zerg killed duke, but when they killed fenix i discovered what this is a bad mission

[NuclearWinter20]

raynor from SC1 looks nothing like he does now in SC2 but i thought he looked like a tard before so all good

[xxDarkGlovesxx]

great, first Fenix, then Aldaris, then Fenix again. That's whack

[Keep701]

I'm surprised Duke took all of those Scourge and still had a decent amount of HPs left.

[tenkenroo]

Fenix is so badass. 

[kaino1990]

fucking bitch kerrigan... jim didnt live up to his promise the little pussy...fenix was my favourite hero, hope she dies to the *spoilers alert* dark voice and/or the xel'naga

[crustymethaddict]

kerrigan is badass, she doesn't give a fuck

[humgunbow]

Haha damnnnnn Fenix died so fast! :D

[ronnyrizat]

jim is such a tool

[FullmetalLakers824]

Gosh, I hated Kerrigan for killing poor Fenix. 

[Astro00X6]

i have a question... What is Duran?

[solwen]

@Astro00X6

a brand of condom ?

[supermatx]

*Starcraft ii spoilers free*

You know, this part is when you see how diabolical Kerrigan is and feel bad for everyone that died just to feel hope that Raynor's solves everything SC II, but before feeling hoped there's only one reaction a NORMAL human being can have:  D:

[ChaosMasterKron]

'But you said revenge was secondary to defeating the UED!'

'I LIED!'

Oh man I laughed so hard at that. Kerrigan's an insane bitch but that felt like righteous justice after what Arcturus did to her.

[Exverlobter]

How unworthy. You infested Fenix with parasites! HE should have died in battle!!

[FTC8905]

"What's up?"

"How ya'll doin'?"

*Lurker's burrow*

"Suprise butt secks!"



[zerglingseb]

I'LL BE THE ONE TO KILL YOU!

(Be seein' you :D)

Great line delivery.

[DathanielTDK]

Here Jim says that he's going to be the one who kills Kerigan someday, but in Wings of Liberty he's out to save her.  Ummm....that's a big change of heart, yes?

[Lifeswipe]

@DathanielTDK Yeah, Fenix doesn't even get mentioned in SC2. Some friend Jim, some friend.

[Hellriper12]

@Lifeswipe yheah ! that sucks...

[BroodmyWarcraft]

Raynor's speech was my favorite part of the game...too bad, it didn't turn out that way in SC2... :(

[benben829]

iI WILL BE THE MAN TO KILL YOU...i'll be seeing ya.

[Cili1000XL]

Fenix is dead......again.....FUCK!!!!!!­!

Lets hope he will come back....again

[Shabonian]

Dam fenix put up less of a fight then duke FAIL.

[Doxi99]

What happen to Reynor after this. Seems like they don't mention him at all later.

[yegkingler]

dam poor fenix what a way to go):

[havik206]

Kerrigan is a bitch but Raynor is fuckin self pitying idiot, hes tha one who betrayed his fellow humans to trust a zerg bitch which for the life of me i cud never figure out. Wut a fuckin moron

[Zergrush64]

@havik206

Didn't you play the Zeratul campaign? If kerrigan died, then the universe would end, and raynor was the only one who could save her.

[Zeredek]

@Zergrush64

Which sucked.

[Gunner11b]

"You will not find me easy prey"

*Spawn Broodling*

"God Dammit"

[Krowges]

@Gunner11b

kerrigan:" what are you worried about jimmy he died the way all protoss hope to"

doubt it.

[LordgeneralVexen]

Wow thats a horrible way to kill fenix

[leitopk4life]

NOOOO FENIX!!!!!!

[snapsnap117]

dude finix=be@$t

[Leon8216645]

Kerrigan is really a bitch.

[BrotherMicheal]

i wonder why Kerrigan "sigh" on killing Fenix.

[AdamArchangel]

@BrotherMicheal Coz even Kerrigan knows that Fenix is a mad-dog.

I really wish that he didn't have to die.

[Tomekkthegreat]

I wish Jim finally gets to kill this b*tch in SC2.

[dogg123456852]

@Tomekkthegreat umm pretty sure hes not since they still love each other

[ColonelYao47]

@Tomekkthegreat Word of advice: you might not want to watch the cinematic for Starcraft 2 titled "The Showdown"...at least without something nearby to throw to a wall.

[selemanecu]

@ColonelYao47 Oh come on!!! What happend to the Warrior from Diablo in the sequel hmm?! HE DIED!!! What happend to Arthas in WoW?! HE DIED!!!! So if Blizzard would have decided the same fate for Kerrigan THEN I would throw something nearby to a wall!!! And just because Jim didn't kill her right now doesn't mean that he won't!!! And don't forget about the others they'll be even less forgiving!!!! Word of Advice: Play Heart of the Swarm then throw something against a wall! Cool? (Alright?)

[phazon55]

@Tomekkthegreat

I'll tell you what happens if you don't mind spoilers.

[solwen]

@Tomekkthegreat

No instead of killing this b*tch, he kills the coolest guy of the whole SC universe ...

[lloyd552]

@solwen But remember kerrigan will be the one that will stop the total defeat

of the protoss,as tassadar predicted.So thats one of the reasons jim let kerrigan alive.

[solwen]

@lloyd552

Yes, but is it even true and not another scheme of Kerrigan ? (being the powerful psyker she is, perhaps she took the form of Zeratul to give the crystal to jim with wathever "memories" she put in it)

[Keep701]

I don't think shes a shapeshifter like Duran (probably) is.

[BroodmyWarcraft]

@Tomekkthegreat Unfortunately no... :(

[DreadRaptor85]

@Tomekkthegreat

You're half correct. He does "get her."

>:P

[Crappy1441]

@Tomekkthegreat She wont kill her because The creator of the zerg and protoss Will destroy everthing even terran and the only way to save the universe is Kerrigan

[Trcls]

@Tomekkthegreat He didn't. He deinfested her and rescued her. :(
