- Mengsk sheltered within his palace as the Swarm and Raynor's Raiders pushed toward the palace. The elite Dominion formations dug in around the palace broke under the assault. Kerrigan entered the palace, cut through the guard, and confronted Mengsk in his office. The emperor used a remote control to disable Kerrigan with the Keystone. Mengsk tauntingly called her his greatest failure and prepared to kill her, when Raynor suddenly appeared. Raynor threw Mengsk across the room, and in the process destroyed the remote. The rebel raised but then put away his revolver, and let Kerrigan impale the emperor in both shoulders. Grievously wounded, Mengsk stated he made her a monster, to which she retorted that he made monsters out of everyone. Kerrigan infused Mengsk with psionic energy, causing him to die in a violent explosion...

I decided to reformat this video to 1080p Full HD ratio (that is 16:9). Originally video was 1920:812 (that is widescreen ratio of about 2,37:1). But if you don't have the monitor with that aspect ratio (and I very doubt that you do), you'll get "black lines" above and below video that I personally don't like. But I didn't simply "rescaled" the video - thus you would miss many important details, because in some frames the meaningful part is located not at the very center but on the left or right side of the frame. So, I cut the original video into dozens of pieces defined by the scene and keyframes and imposed different scaling, spatial interpolation, i.e. transitions, to each of the pieces. Thus trying to lose as little notable material from the video as possible... - Hry

who cares
I do care. Good job, Jake.
They can always meet again
I love how Jim brought down the blast visor. He knew what was coming lol.
He so did.
The little details are often times the best
Now this is where I find it most interesting, in a small theory I've always had, Jim puts his visor down as he does not want to see what she will do. He has never forgiven himself for what happened to her, and instead of seeing a violent monster she has become cause of Arcturus, he shuts his visor to remember her before all this happens, as he truly loved her, but this form(literal queen of hell imo)has no room for love.
@@mathewrichardson2962 that or he just knew he's in the blast radius, so he shut it to cover himself. Better save than sorry
He knows how deadly she is.
I just noticed Raynor puts his visor down before she impales Mengsk. Gotta be ready for the splatter lmao
and puts down his blast shield so he doesn't see it.
@@ComradeDragon1957 no he put down the blast shield so his face doesnt fucking explode
Raynor: "I don't think I want to see this"
Same. Well, I actually notice that the first time
Yeah he was like:
"Finallay gonna use this shit on your face... huh, never mind..."
Love it how at 2:25 when Kerrigan is getting back up, Jim just steps back and pulls down his face shield that is designed to protect against nukes
Well, they kinda tend to have the same result in certain ways.
Same shit.
All this time playing SC2, I never noticed that
I love how zeratul was there but you couldn't see him being the Dark Templar he is
Yeah, noticed it too
Drax was there also 😎
@@dagg497 Ah yes
@@ilaren007 Where at? I’m genuinely curious
@@DarthHavoc1 same but I think it’s a joke
"I'm the man that's gonna kill you someday" - Jim raynor 1998
joke: He kind of does considering they later basically dive into StarCraft's version of hell together.
not joke: I think it would've been more interesting to make him reluctant to let her live / save her. They did well in terms of building up how guilty he felt and even Zeratul's crystal thing to give him a reason not to kill her. But they missed the mark when it came to linking his Brood War stance to his love for her in the sequel.
Personally I wonder how the story might have morphed if it was a true continuation of the Brood War story, making her the antagonist.
I know this voice line might make SC2 seem inconsistent but really if you pay attention it is clear in Wings of Liberty that Jim is fine with killing Kerrigan until he realizes that it is even a possibility to make her human again, and in the lore he tried multiple times to kill her prior to the start of WoL. And, of course, there is also the prophecy from Zeratul that makes it clear Kerrigan cannot die if the universe is to be saved. Blizzard doesn't pretend Jim never said that line either, as Kerrigan directly references it in the cutscene where she rescues him in Heart of the Swarm. Given that Jim was referring to the Queen of Blades, you can argue in a way that he did kill her when he used the artifact to deinfest her.
Well he kind of did. He killed the queen of blade and save kerrigan from the influence of the fallen xelnaga
"Thank you Jim, for everything, my pleasure darling, always was".
Makes my heart ache everytime
3:34 I have never seen such a profound display of lost love than in this scene here. Both Jim and Kerrigan sadly say goodbye to each other, despite painfully being in love with each other, but understanding they can never be together. It’s enough to make any cynic cry. So beautiful
And then you see the final cutscene of Legacy of the Void...
Either way it was our pressure always was.
They're gonna shove their "happily ever after" down our throats in SC3 should there ever be one, then we'll get a shock ending of their children being the ultimate hybrid species.
@@rlouie05 They got their Happy ever after. Get over it,
she killed Fenix...
Like the ending. No smooching or anything. Just a heartfelt thank you that's beyond measure.
even with all the bug parts she's still an insanely beautiful woman.
Disgusting
@@winzyl9546 Yes you are.
Mengsks Voice is so unbelievably good, the arrogance and utter control and hatred oozes from ervey syllable. Kudos to the voice actor, stellar performance.
Ten years, and this still give me Goosebumps as hell.
Never lit that last cigar.. shows his arrogance, as if he thought he would have plenty of time to smoke it later.
It was a trick to caught Kerrigan off-guard thinking the Artifact's trigger was just an ordinary cigarette lighter. Cause if she had knew, she would either just immediately flee it's blast radius or quickly killed Mengsk before he even had the chance to pulled the trigger
that cigar is completely rotten and all dried up anyway. it needs to be stored in a environment with high moisture that needs constant care. Just putting it in a case like that for god knows how long looks cool to the noob but I guarantee you every cigar afficionado heavily cringed when they saw that lol
Raynor says “change of plans” just like mengsk did before he betrayed Kerrigan. Just thought I’d point out that callback.
loved this ending so much... poor Raynor he fought so hard to get Kerrigan back yet he needs to let her go again
At least she's on her right mind now.
Spoilers below:
they are finally together… in a different life form
You know what would have been more satisfying, turning him into a zerg. Under kerrigan's control. His greatest fear
That's what old Queen of Blades would do i guess.
Still would've been too dangerous. Especially if he somehow managed to turn into a Zerg like her, gained sentience. Granted, unlikely since he wasn't a psi op, but still. Imagine a tyrant like him with even a fraction of that power. Nope. Better safe than sorry.
@@halhala2 Eh, the whole story is a bit weird. They gave Stukov a lot more power then he should have had as an infested terran. I consider only the original Starcraft and Starcraft Broodwar to be cannon - Mengsk should have become an explosive infested terran with no ability to control himself, then used to kill someone else he was close to. That would have been poetic.
@@zxcvbnmasdfghjkl51 Except the only person Mengsk might've cared about was Valerian, and he seemed eager enough to cast him aside early on. Besides which, Valerian wasn't an asshole and she knew that. There really was no one left to kill but him.
@@zxcvbnmasdfghjkl51 to be fair, Stukov was A: experimented on so God knows what that did, and B: he was from Earth so we have no idea how their biology differs from the other humans we see

Sounds like the daily life of a simp, let her go Jimmy let her go, she’s not worth it (AT ALL).
@@jonessoda4me1she absolutely is worth it.
After Legacy of the Void, she is also now the most powerful being in the universe lmao. And Raynor’s hitting that.
@Amber Wolf lmfao 🤣
"You can never suffer enough"
is not a justification to not even make them suffer at all
I think she just wanted to kill him, I mean she had Amon to go get she didn’t really have time
Nah, just do it quickly and cleanly. Assuming that you have the extra time to inflict suffering first is exactly the kind of arrogance that got Mengsk killed.
@@magicalpj mengsk relied on an outside source (electroshock) to keep her incapacitated, when the generator was destroyed so was his advantage.
I a mtalking about chop off arms, chop off legs, cautarize wounds, make sure he survives, abduct him, then torture at will.
To be fair with the exception of his son she's already murdered his entire family.
When she was psi op she killed his mother father and little sister, and took his father's head to prove she had accomplished her mission.
That's why he hates her.
i always feel funny that at 2:25, jim fully closed his visor and be like: do whatever you got to do to that bastard, i am not gonna watch.
That visors able to protect against nukes among other things. Don't believe me look it up. And the reason he set it down for is because he knew if he didn't he would die.
One of the best love stories there ever was.
I'd simp for Kerrigan, not gonna lie. I don't blame Jimmy one bit.
I still think it’s funny all the times throughout these games when people underestimated her like this scene he knew that the single most dangerous person alive was on her way to kill him and he sets up a glorified taser that only effects her.
Like even if raynor didn’t show up he had already lost the battle and was standing on a planet controlled by Zerg where an untold thousands could easily swarm in at a moments notice.
True. That idea has always been bugging me. Like, sure, you killed Kerrigan, but Zagara was still there, and the Swarm. And, Raynor and his Raiders. Even his son who admitted just a few cutscenes back that his dad needed to die was there too. He still wouldn't have gotten out of the planet alive. What exactly was Arcturus thinking?
I think it's the point where he already realized he's going to die anyway, but he wanted to kill her just for the spite of it.
A swarm with no one to command it and the Dominion navy rapidly closing in...? Legacy of the Void already made it clear Dominion troops were still fighting long after Mengsk died.
@@Thurnmourer it’s established that most of if not all of the swarm wasn’t directly under her control but instead under her brood mothers who led the fighting and tactical decisions so her dying would only minimally if at all effect the swarm. Plus Mengsk seems like the type of guy who doesn’t care about all the soldiers fighting for him given what he’s done so the only thing he cares about is himself in my opinion. Even if he killed Kerrigan most likely that would lead to the entire swarm well swarming the building and tearing it down to scrap metal ignoring the possibility of loss if she had died.
All mengsk gains in his actions in this cutscene is a possibility of claiming to be the one who killed her he would have been safer doing almost anything other than what he did like as she said he could have evacuated, or he could have hid somewhere she didn’t know about, or even better he could have worn any armor at all like this dude is in the middle of a war zone knowing that the single most dangerous person alive is headed to kill him and is dressed like he’s about to give a speech.
I love the way she look Jim with that glassy eyes as she say “thank you Jim, for everything”
When people say Mengsk was a good guy I remember the ultralisks tearing down Korhal and all his lovely orders, like "FIRE THAT DAMN WARHEAD NOW!!!" "I'll turn this city into irradiated ruin if I have to...."
Millennial Falcon his word about burning it down to ashes around him is making me impressed! He’s my servant
I've never seen someone take Mengsk side. I mean, the guy is literally space mussolini ruling over a sector at war, enjoys near-endless resources and manipulates public opinion by controlling the media.
Mengsk a good guy .... some people need to lay off the terrazine
@@EnzoPinheiro You will always find people crazy enough to support anyone, Trump being president of the USA should have taught you that by now.
@@Ishlacorrin yeah, I guess you're right.
2 Dislikes from Mengsk and Edmund Duke
The third dislike is General Warfield
Fourth dislike is Fenix
@@lowella8812 The other 193 dislikes is from Aldaris and the Conclave
1:29 love her reaction. she entered the room arrogantly but quickly changed after making a mistake. imagine if Raynor didn't help her invade Korhal, and this scene happened. he push the button for the last time, and the machine makes her own psychic power overload and blows her head off, and Zerg is completely annihilated in one evening. the next day a news spreads throughout all Terran forces and civilians about the Queen's headless remain in Mengsk's office and the news eventually reach to Raynor
@2:17 the way he pulls the gun at lightning speed... Fucking epicccccc!
My Pleasure darling,
Always was....
@@CRM278 bro I love her really hard.... I won't kill her never..
I love this cinematic. No matter what, Jim loves her. No matter who she's killed, how many, what she's become, what she looks like, he's hers.
yea that's how plot contrivances work
doesn't matter came before or after
@@alexbot8826 Nah, it makes sense. Jim despises the Queen of Blades and that never changes. They make it clear that he is absolutely pissed when he realizes Kerrigan went back to being Zerg, and he rips into her for the billions she killed. The reason Jim changes his mind is because he realizes that Kerrigan is not actually the Queen of Blades again. She is not the monstrous figure created by the Overmind but rather has complete free will and a moral conscience, to the point where she repeatedly agrees to prevent the deaths of millions of civilians on Korhal despite making her invasion harder. When Jim realizes Kerrigan is still Kerrigan and that deinfesting her wasn't all for nothing he can't just plausibly stand idle while she prepares to fight against a universe-destroying god.
@@sparkz9502 i think that blizzard is grateful to have you try to fix their story
but i got one rule about this

@@alexbot8826 All of this was shown in the story though. I have absolutely no reason to lie for Blizzard given how trash of a company they are nowadays. Look back through the cinematics and you'll see everything I mentioned.

This scene really made me emotional. As someone who has been a fan and a Starcraft player since day 1 😭
0:14 this guy is the brother of the one that tried to 1v1 an Ultralisk and you can't convince otherwise!
I can hardly believe that a film adaptation could be made to rival the cinematics of this game with all the drama, the emotion, the incredible artwork and design...maybe if Blizzard do it themselves...
AKA: The best episode of The Office EVER.
I find it hilarious that raynor closed his face mask thing or whatever when kerrigan ducks up migsk or however you say his name
He knows shits is about to go down when some girl got pissed off so he lowered his mask to protect him from collateral damage
I never noticed that! This is great. Another thing that makes this scene one of my favorites.
He was like: "Oh shit! It's going to blow!"
dude you're really shit at names haha
Fukin Raynor puts on his blast door mask thing after she gets up
"all the lives you ruined"
Meanwhile queen of blades :
Ness, Go Back.
Anyone else getting an Emperor Palpatine, Vader and Luke on the second death star vibe?
This feels like a movie
"you can never suffer enough for all the lives you've ruined"
....you are the leader of the Zerg.you don't really have the high ground here kerrigan
tbf... in a sense that's all his fault too.
you forget how he left her behind purposely thereby setting off this whole queen of blades thing?
That is 100% the fault of Arcturus Mengsk, without his betrayal of her she never would have become the queen of blades.
He is mostly responsible for every life she has ever taken after that point.
@@Ishlacorrin Maybe, but, she had the free will to basically tell the Swarm to make like the insects they are and bugger off. But didn't.
@@bloodbrawler1438 Not at the start, she had no free will till the Overmind was killed and after that she was still tainted by Amon's overriding will placed within the swarm. Only after she was returned to human form did she have that choice and it was once again Arcturus who forced her hand and set her on the path once more. Left alone Jim might have been able to convince her to let the vendetta go, but with Arcturus attacking them and 'killing' Jim, her revenge was all she had left. Even if she had chosen the other option, that would not have stopped the Zerg from being a constant danger to all because of Amon's will.
Mengsk…not the hero we deserved but the one we ultimately needed. What a chad, reluctantly sending Kerri to her death just so she could save the universe. Even had the cigar ready. Well played sir, well played 🪦
Lady Zerg, Kerrigan, also known as Queen b**** of the universe, has invaded and create chaos in Korhal and eviscerated Acturus mengsk, the revolutionary war hero
By this point everyone had already learned a lot of the truth of Mengsk. Remember Media Blitz in WoL?
Realized that the energy being sapped from Kerigan is reviving Amon.
That's a nice attention to detail
Wasn't he already revived at this point?
Kerrigan nonchalantly blows up the entire room even though Jim is right behind her.
Wasn't there a part where she tells the zerg to leave the planet and the panic people on the radio inform raynor the zerg are leaving?
That's with General Warfield. She hears the panic-call from a medivac and presumably calls her Zerg off from pursuing the fleeing soldiers before she kills Warfield.
Zerg: My Queen, why didn’t you just fly to the top floor?
"And waste the opportunity for my grand entrance? You have lots to learn my little larvae"
Still one of the best stories of all time and the graphics on it for the game back then superb now if only this could be made into a movie it would be epic...
I still feel that Jim should've just gotten out of his suit and beat the ever loving shit out of mengsk. But it's Kerrigans campaign blah blah
VRTXProductions Jim Raynor hates Mengsk because Arcturus os a complete scumbag, but he wasn't the one abandoned on Tarsonis. He hates that Mengsk betrayed him, but he knows that Mengsk's betrayal of Kerrigan was much, much worse. Jim is satisfied that Mengsk has to die, but knows it's not his place to do that. Kerrigan is the one who wants revenge, Raynor understands that.
i was hoping for something like using her psyionic ability to give him some kind of mental torture for the rest of his life where he had some kind of severe trauma. see him squirming in agony.
@@Daytruin lol what do you think was put into that blast she did on his face
....... all that torture she had.... for years.... put into 10 seconds of pure agony before being ripped apart by sheer psychic force
... id say thats pretty brutal lol
Besides, lets be honest; Kerrigan is the one here ho deserved this more than Jym.
They can get out of their suits?
What ever happened to "I'm the man who's gonna kill you some day" Raynor?
Dead, gone.
Reduced to atoms.
To be fair, he did kill Mengsk. If he didn't come to stop Mengsk from using the Keystone, Kerrigan won't be able to kill him. And, maybe he just understood as well that what Kerrigan can do to Mengsk is much more painful and much more deserved than what he ever could do to him.
@@titocristobal5573 No amount of pain to an enemy can excuse what she did to Fenix.
@@RazorToaster Amon and Narud made her do that. And they're fucking dead.
Everytime I rewatch this and the cinematics it always makes me wonder if the Terran Dominion fought the 40k imperium who would win.
Terran has them completely bested in aerial combat because their ships are far more advanced and can warp way more faster than 40k ones. I feel that marines vs 40ks space Marines is a tough one but 40k wins because they have genetics augmentations and fire literal rockets for bullets but I think Terran marauders even it out. Terran wins the matchup simply due to their massive tech advantage. I would add during the war the imperium would dominate in ground encounters because of their tactics to just endlessly send troops until they win but the Terran battlecruisers, vikings, cloaked banshees, and all their aerial craft could just glass the imperium's position until their is nothing left. The Terrans also have artillery that can literally fire from tens of thousands of miles away so all they would have to do is just endlessly fire at the imperium's position until they all die or retreat
Another interesting comparison is wether the zerg would win or lose if they encountered the flood from halo
Zerg leviathans are capable of warp so that instantly means that they beat the flood in mobility.
I think applicability wise they are evenly matched because both are hyper viral but the zerg posses far more combat centered units than the flood does. The only advantage the flood has is if they create and conceal a gravemind or keymind. My guess is that the flood will fight a defensive battle for most of the way until they can adapt to the zerg. The zergs units also can go in space while the flood can't
I think the 40k Imperium would still win because of sheer scale. Even a ruined empire that consists of humanity in it's darkest age still has massive amounts of manpower and weaponry. And don't discount the sheer fanaticism of Commissars, Sisters of Battle, Techpriests, and of course the Space Marines themselves. Do or die charges by true believers is a remarkably common occurrence for them.
Even in RTS mechanics, I think the Imperium has a leg up, as the Terrans need to (reactors aside) build 1 unit at a time per structure while the Imperium fields entire squads in the same time, and since the Terran model relies on harvesting resources in active battlefields, it's much more vulnerable to disruption. 1 Terran marine might beat 1 Imperial Guardsman, but what about 5, or 2 against 10? That's not even getting into squad upgrades like specialized weapons.
Lol the Imperium wins because.
A) Sheer scale and numbers, if they brought all their resources into this, calling it overkill is being generous.
B) The Terran Dominion has the edge on some technologies but the Imperium is not as backwater as you give it credit for.
C) That's without counting the hundreds of specialists the Imperium has, Space Marines can tear apart Dominion Marines easily.
Even if you put them at the same scale of forces, the Imperium wins, they have just any kind of equipment to deal with any situation.
Yeah it may seem somewhat comparable on the surface but the imperium is much more advanced than you give it credit for, I don't think there is even a terran technological equivalent for a single warlord titan let alone a things like the ubiquitous plasma and laser weaponry they employ on even their basic infantry, I do agree that the terran fleets seem much more mobile not having to rely on the crummy warp for travel and can freely develop new tech at a rapid pace, they would have the long term advantage if they could survive for long enough to gain further technology, but frankly I doubt they would get the chance xD
@@ignaciotaborda6538 I think if you scaled the dominion up, they'd have a good shot at winning because the terrans are much more technologically flexible. The Imperium gets their technology from ten thousand year old fabricators that they can't change, whereas the Terrans get theirs from research and development. Any tech lead the imperium had the terrans study and replicate, whereas over time the Terrans would become increasingly technologically superior.
i love how Jim put his armor in "blast mode" before she go for Mensk.... he knew whats was coming next.
You failed me, Mengsk!
Raynor+Kerrigan=LOVE

Visor goes down: aw shit

Sometimes a monster is what is needed.
This history and lore is amazing...
The sad part is that Kerrigan likely caused even more deaths than him
Are we talking when she was functionally mind controlled or after?
One of the best villians in all starcraft
He is the best one. Amon is only the traditional big big bad which has been used thousands times in different games and movies
Everyone talks about the end of this scene but the beginning where Kerrigan takes on the army when she was at her strongest was just insane, get chills when they all lift off the ground
2024 and still watching this …. 😢
Thats twice our good ol boy Raynor saved Kerrigan.
I actually feel bad for Mengsk. He was a dictator but he did loose his father because of kerrigan and her ghost team so he has all the right to hate her.
He also left her behind when he didn't need to, he could've pick her up in the last minute, but he made jimmy silent about the whole thing so he couldn't do anything about it.
Also mengsk is tyrant in WOL but he wants to save humanity in HOTS
@DanRage47 Been a while since I played W.o.L., but recently tried Starcraft 1 for the first time and a certain comment sticks out in my mind. 'I will rule this sector or see it burnt to ashes around me'.

[Kerrigan uses her dragon-like Zerg wings to forcibly pry open the sealed doors, and boldly enters Mengsk's inner office in his palace on Korhal; he has a cigar in his teeth and what looks like a lighter in his hand as he turns and stands to face her directly.]
Arcturus Mengsk: [greeting her] "Hello, Kerrigan. I've been waiting for you."
Sarah Kerrigan: [laughs in amusement, while smirking] "I'm surprised you haven't tried to escape."
Arcturus Mengsk: "Escape?" [chuckles evilly] "My dear, I'm afraid you've got it all wrong."
[Mengsk reveals the "lighter" to be a control switch, as the Xel'Naga artifact raises from a compartment in the floor; he presses the control, blasting Kerrigan with energy, which causes her to writhe and scream in pain and agony.]
Arcturus Mengsk: "Really. Did you think I'd keep an animal like you close to me without some kind of insurance policy?" [gives Kerrigan another painful jolt] "Clearly, you are my greatest failure. Now, at long last... you will die!"
[Mengsk is suddenly grabbed from behind by a power-armored Jim Raynor, the switch in his hand crushed as he's lifted off the floor.]
Jim Raynor: [raising his visor] "Change of plans."
[Raynor angrily hurls Mengsk across the room and draws his pistol, but steps back as Kerrigan advances on the fallen emperor, impaling him against the wall with her draconic wing-spikes.]
Sarah Kerrigan: [seething with rage] "You can never suffer enough for all the lives you've ruined, Arcturus."
Arcturus Mengsk: [hatefully spatting at her through clenched teeth] "I made you into a monster, Kerrigan!"
Sarah Kerrigan: [retorting, before delivering the finishing blow] "You made us all into monsters."
[Kerrigan reaches out with one hand, unleashing a spike of psionic energy into Mengsk's head. Mengsk screams as the power explodes within him, vaporizing him and destroying his office. That backstabbing and treacherous son of a bitch Arcturus Mengsk definitely deserved what was coming to him in the end. He totally had it coming for a long time. Remarkably, Raynor and Kerrigan are unscathed.]
Sarah Kerrigan: [gazing up at the swarm in the sky] "Thank you, Jim... for everything."
[Kerrigan levitates into the air to join the swarm.]
Jim Raynor: "My pleasure, darlin'." [smiles] "Always was."
[The scene goes to space, approaching a deep blackness in the void.]
Sarah Kerrigan: [voiceover] "I now see my true enemy. He waits for me in the void, wielding powers I cannot imagine. I go to face him, having renounced everything: My humanity. My identity. The man I love. But I will not face this enemy alone. I am the Swarm."
are you going to play the legacy of the void next?
+Aleksa Antonijevic Yeah, of course. Though I'll make several Witcher 3 videos before that I think.
Does anyone know which song from the soundtrack was used for this cinematic?
I think it’s a different version of “Collateral Damage” in the heart of swarm soundtrack
2:31 You can never suffer enough for all the lives you've ruined, Arcturus....
I made you into a monster, Kerrigan!
You made us ALL into monsters....
Of all the final words why did he say that line? I know their history but still kind of odd. Why not say “ you really are a monster”?
Jim: watch the front row it tends to be the splash zone.
That fucking quick draw was so crisp
"You don't think I'd keep an animal around me, without some kind of insurance policy?" -Cues the State Farm logo.
Kinda nice that Raynor gave her the kill,he had a literal bullet with Mengsk's name on it but she deserved it more because of all Mengsk put her trough.
I kinda like the twist that he kept the Xel'naga artifact,he didnt use it in the battle but since it doesnt work on humans he probably planned on killing Kerrigan and making the Zergs run wild and attack Raynor's raiders.
I wish they had made this different. Like him having like 5 special ghost all giving kerrigan a hard fight.
Would been cool
Imagine if they put this time into the game instead of just cinematics
I continue coming time to time to remaind this scene. Years has passed and yet I had never seen an scene so emotional like this. the first strike "you made us all monsters" of Kerrigan is so damn profound because when you think about it is so true, she, Raynor and so on of people that died and lost parts of themself in this battle, being her and even the same Mengsk the best cases of those who change and become monsters.
And to finish the last goodbye between lost lovers is just perfect and so emotional, I have to admit that "Heart of the swam" had the worst final and not for the scene for what it meant in the story... like damn... it's raining...
Valentine's day is coming so this appears on my recs lolz
this is the best love story idc

"Change of plans!"
