I do like the older protoss design and material. They look alien, ancient and mysterious - while the newer designs look a little too glossy and...glowy.
SC2 appeals to a wider audience. They added shoulderpads, character superpowers. They removed the general horror typical of misterious terran labs and unknown zerg forces. The toss are more akin to wow paladins (artanis) wow orcs (fenix) and siths (alarak) with the dark templar faction not beeing really well defined yet. But the most important thing is ... the story revolves around what characters decide to do and not what they could realistically do ... which is paradoxical of the RTS genere.
Exactly! I have the same issues with the SCII Zerg units like the Infestor. Now, compare the Infestor with the Defiler from SC1. The Defiler looks so scary and creepy!

Carriers can't destroy planets and they don't have any conventional weapon, confirmed by the Field Manual. Two Battlecruisers absolutely wreck a Carrier in Shadow of the Xel'naga in an instant.

@Ž Š from what i've seen infested terrans in sc1 were much harder to obtain and for not much in return, whereas banelings can be made early, en masse and against any opponent.
@Ž Š personally i feel like they could have been much better if the conditions to obtain them weren't so specific. you have to fight a terran, you have to get a queen nest, then a queen, then the command centre has to be low health, then the queen has to get to the cc without dying, and *then* you finally get to make them. its an awful lot of work and niche conditions, though to be fair it is an insta-kill unit (to this day i dont know what weird crack they took when they thought that would be a good idea)
By retaining the dark and political atmosphere of the original SC1 you managed to create a cinematic which is far better than anything I have seen in SC2. Well done, Sir! You truly understand Starcraft!
dweliq The games are essentially identical... the gameplay is almost exactly the same. It's still the most brilliant and best RTS in the world. What you mean is: the *story* sucks. Which is true, but Starcraft is best for its fantastic strategic gameplay, and SCII is constantly improving on the model, SC: Broodwar was not aging well, so they updated it and called it SCII. It's every bit as fantastic as the original. In terms of story: It's actually a pretty normal quality story by today's standards, go to the movies and I bet you can't find any Sci-Fi movies that are any better than SCII's storyline. SCII's story, doesn't suck: that's not it, the thing is SC1's story was *ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!* better than any other story in existence. To say SCII's story sucks is a little erroneous, because you're comparing it to the single best told story that was ever told: SC1. The disappointment you feel is because SCII did not live up to your expectations: and I agree, it was disappointing to see. But SCII's story doesn't suck, it just does compared to SC1s. Starcraft as a franchise is never going to suck. Ever. It's always going to be the best RTS in the world. Alonso de Hojeda This vid had no politics in it at all, it was a really awesome vid for a fan made thing, don't get me wrong! I did +1 it, quite well done. But blizzard's cinematics are fantastic, you can't deny this: and how dare you say this is better than the Kerrigan's Betrayal cinematic in WoL? It captured the essence of the moment from SC1 awesomely, and gave us a new perspective, as well as being extremely well assembled! That cinematic shows the true scope of the brilliance of Blizzard's cinematic team!
Geegee Tomlinson What you're saying simply isn't true. The gameplay is VERY different. SC2 was NOT an improvement of the strategic depth of Broodwar. The gameplay, especially big fights, have become very accelerated and thus uncontrollable in SC2. While Broodwar had elements that would decelerate fights (lurkers, spider mines, reavers) that gave players time to re-group and re-engage in a different way, SC2 barely has such a thing. Force fields, Infestors, Colossi, Banelings, Marauders require minimal micro, yet deal tremendous damage in a fight and put pressure not on the player controlling these units but the one being attacked. It's a very serious flaw and is the reason why frustration levels in SC2 are much higher than in Broodwar. People are frustrated because they feel helpless and not in control of the situation, and it's mainly because damage output has become so fast. The bonus damage system doesn't help, either, when in Broodwar you had a system that would halve or quarter the damage depending on unit type.
***** Broodwars decelerated gameplay had a lower skill cap than SCII's fast paced action, many of the units are still the same and many of the mechanics are identical, the faster paced gameplay has given the game a higher skillcap yes, and Blizzard intends to make it even faster still - it's not less balanced, it's just *harder*. There are far more mistakes that can be made - nobody can play SCII perfectly, and that's one of the reasons why it's such a good strategy. For the record, the counter-micro at high levels make banelings and mutalisks very very hard to control, landing good baneling connections is *extremely* difficult against the likes of Mvp or Bomber or some other professional Terran. It gave starcraft MORE strategic depth, not less, you're either angry because your favourite game got changed and you don't like change (which is common, you're not the only one with such psychological deficits), or, you're extremely bad at starcraft and you're whining about the game getting harder; nothing wrong with that, but a lot of people like the complex mechanical challenge.
As far as I know, that was actually Chau Sara, sister planet to Mar Sara where the first part of the original Starcraft campaign takes place. The events here take place a short time before the original Starcraft Campaign.
A movie, or just a cutscene? Starcraft has a few cutscenes with Reynor's Battlecruiser cruising alongside Protoss Carriers.... But a legit combat scene with terran/protoss vs zerg hordes would be sweet as Hell.
The Zerg were brought on Chau Sara by the Terran Confedracy as a weapon test. They never intended to really rescue any of the people there. The Protoss Carrier they are engaging was the most powerful ship of the Protoss (with Executor Tassadar on board!) at that time in the lore, so obviously it's going to be incredibly powerful.
Using the game's mecahnics, this matchup wouldn't play out like it did, but from a story-telling perspective it can work. It can be bought that Tassadar's Carrier is top of the line amidst its class.
ummm you do realize that those are Grantrithor's one of the super carriers, a unit that was not usable in Starcraft. "The super carrier destroyed every terran ship regardless of affiliation to stem the infestation. Only the terran flagships, Hyperion and Norad III, escaped" so this one super carrier showed up and wiped out the Terran fleet..
protoss dragoon yes but not in multiplayer which is what a lot of these people obviously are crying about and either forgot or never played through the SC story
protoss is so cool they got the best weapons and look awesome, they all have something glowing on them, i love it. and everything they have is insanely powerful
You should have these original animations in their own playlist, and you should definitely make more. They are just as good as anything Blizzard has made! :)
in the gameplay the units carriers don't have lazers cannons, but check it out in this way, the fisrt video of the game Starcraft, a carrier used that lazer, and the story say that a vast fleet eradicated all the planet.
Ah yes.. starcraft.. Fun-fact the 13th number in a starcraft CD key (usless since its free to play now) was a check-sum of the other 12. This meant you could put in ANY 12 numbers, and by simply cycling through 0-9 on the last digit you would get a valid key
@kyr200 yes it was him. If u remember on SC1 the text u saw when u begun to play the Terran Campaign u saw the sentence "A Protoss flet under Tassadar's Leadership came to burn all live on Chau Sara" thats the beginning of SC1, and many people hope that thats the Trailer for an SC Film
The Human faction in Star Craft was called The Confederacy before it turned into an Empire by a coup d'etat. But pre coup Battlecruisers had the Confererate flag (which would be the right time for this first contact) Still, using that flag in a video game has not aged well.
Chris, this may be 2 more later on a comment. but U sir, deserve alot of credit for the work u do. Final Metamorphosis is also one that deserves 5 stars.
From StarCraft wikia: Carriers have forward mounted energy weapons used for purification; they lack other armament beyond interceptors. The computer-controlled Interceptors are unleashed in swarms against other ships. Due to game mechanics - purification - was not introduced since Carriers are already a formidable unit as it is. Hope this helps, bro :)
Still does not 100% explain the laser beams from the carriers but those could just be planet killers or something so for power reasons not used in combat (normally) idk just throwing ideas on the wall.
@KuunLan87 Even in the official lore, he did purge the first planet. Only on the second one did he spare the Terrans, by delaying the purge. I also tried to portray his regret here, when deciding to attack the hostile Terran fleet.
A Super Carrier would NEVER be able to take on 3 Battlecruisers. Even if they weren't Behemoths and were instead Leviathans, NO ONE UNIT ALONE could take 3 Battlecruisers.
SCLegacy is in the process of moving over all the original content from the previous channel it appears. I don't know for certain... perhaps there will be more exciting / new video in the future?
I prefer this classic much more gritty looking Terran Battlecruiser over the new chunky, puffed up new SC2 BC. The old one also transmits its huge scale much better, due to more smaller details and distinct shapes. SC1 BC is like western cartoon while SC2 BC is like eastern anime style.
Screw you guys, screw you for showing me such an epic, amazing video clip... because now I want more, not like a little bit more, I'm talking feature length film more would be awesome and I know that isn't coming ;-( (or is it?) :D :D :D Seriously though, amazing work guys, I loved it!
The reality is super carriers like Tassadar's Gantrithor exist and even the most advance Battlecruiser doesn't even come close to matching it in any respect. Terran's lack the technology and the biology to ever truly contest the Protoss if they were keen on wiping them out like they are with the Zerg. Of course for balance's and perspective sake Terran are given a handicap in game and in lore.
+gotriceandshrimp but protoss lack numbers and they are cripply overspecialized, it's easy for terrans to recruit/train new specialists/soldiers/engineer/etc. but it takes decades for protoss. Terrans has potential, protoss are a finished product, their thinking process is very dull compared to humans. Most of protoss tech is just a bad ripoff from Xel'Naga tech and not their own, where Terrans achived their tech on their own from the stone age and when humans get their hands on protoss tech they try to use it in a more rational way, improving it using their practical minds without all that religion-look-a-like crap protoss high on. I mean look at WoL campaign and everything Raynor Raiders get with just a bit of protoss tech, it's even hinted in the description of a refinery (automated). Like for example those protoss bitches even lack good medicine and can't repair their tech in the field, fucking retards. If terrans in corprulu sector has the same level of tech as protoss, zerg had no chance, protoss probaly too. Idk, but i think even UED can kick those duchebags.
Kirk, yes. However, Bill Adama had the remnants of the colonies to fret over and would've thought "better safe than sorry" if he even remotely believed they were cylons.. and Jack O'neill? please.. without Daniel Jackson, O'neill would've gutted every jaffa on sight. ^^
Thats come down to you from the stargate and battlestar series ? Oneill is the military aspect of the sg1 team, but his spirit is in the right place, he wouldnt gutted every jaffa without tealc or even daniel. Without them he would choose the fight but allways as last resort. You underestimate the wisdom of Adama. He have responsibility about the civil fleet, but thats mean avoid fight, and be aware in contacts. If he would look out the window, and/or check the radar picture, he could rekognise, its not a base star...soo he would like "Be aware, its can be a trap, but dont fire before my command"..... Maybe you are a pure Trekkie and dont like bsg and sg, but you should rewatch both series....
zatnikutel You really shouldn't assume anything about my fandom unless you know me. I have the ultimate collection boxsets of both shows and consider myself a die hard gater. ^^ But i still stand by my opinion; without Jackson in his life to soften him up, O'neill would have remained a bitter gung-ho military man, actually probably more like Mayborne than anything else, just more brooding and not quick with the witty comebacks (watch the season one episode "There but for the grace of God", in which Jack is willing to slaughter people on Chulak because he never met Daniel, also, he is an absolute wreck in the motion picture from -94 before he met Daniel, watch it. Its not exactly a stretch to think that he would be a "fire first, ask questions later"-kind of guy if Jackson hadnt had such a huge influence on him) and Adama has proven several times that he has no qualms whatsoever in taking a hardline approach. Hell, he even tried to lead a coup de tas against Roslin. Just because they are viewed as generally sympathetic characters doesnt mean that they would always act exactly the way you want them to or expect them to. I'm just being realistic and analytical, weighing the best and worst of their characters against the proposed scenario and projected outcome.
there is a unknown giant vessel bigger then our biggest ships on a intercept course with our planet attacking the approaching ship is the most logical course of action what could the ship be here for peace, resources, war, general hell
LMAO!!!!!! " No terrans were actually harmed in the making of this video in accordance with the koprulus sector laws of fairplay" LMAO!!!!! this was fuken most excellently awesome!!!!
@certainlymaybe You know what an estimate is right? 100,000 times more massive than an SCV. It means its big enough for control rooms, weapons, crew, all kinds of tools for all kinds of missions, warp space drives, factories, etc, the bigger the ship the more room you have to work with. The closest 'size' i can find for voidrays make them half the size of a BattleCruiser, thats huge and all firepower, its called a counter. What is the Gantrithor, if not a massive carrier?
First time seeing this. I’m glad that I was right and carriers don’t just have interceptors and that they also have a big pew pew. I haven’t played sc1 just sc2
@XDelusions666X If you have read the Novel, then you would know that a Protoss Carrier can shoot plasma rays; it is only restricted during gameplay as this ability is considered OPB and Blizzard did not include it as a default ability.
The precursor to the contemporary Terran Dominion was the Terran Confederacy, ruled from Tarsonis before that Planet was destroyed by the Zerg (called down by the Psi Emitter placed by Mengks' Sons of Korhal outfit in the first Starcraft game). The Confederacy, in a joke that may or mar not have been recognized in-universe, carries the same flag as the Terran Confederacy. It should be noted that many Terran characters have a southern accent (Duke, Mengsk Sr., Raynor, etc.)
@certainlymaybe Back in my original posts i pointed out how ineffective armor on space ships was in the first place, thats exactly why. Forget 100,000, it was an estimate comparing them to an SCV, they are much larger than that. My complaint is terrans have force fields but dont use them, Protoss ships are VERY frail without shields. BC's estimated to be about 500-650m to over 1000m depending on the class. One shotted by a drone ship, terrans dont get no CGI justice
Why does the Gantrithor have a Frontal Wave Motion gun that can snap shot a Battlecruiser before it can fire its Yamato? "Fuck you he's Tassadar that's why."
well according to the lore, the Carrier are not that different from a BC, store smaller protoss aircraft like scouts and arbiter (except the lack of smaller gun batteries), so the interceptors only used as they're called, intercept. But for the gameplay... well you get the idea

@Ž Š personally i feel like they could have been much better if the conditions to obtain them weren't so specific. you have to fight a terran, you have to get a queen nest, then a queen, then the command centre has to be low health, then the queen has to get to the cc without dying, and *then* you finally get to make them. its an awful lot of work and niche conditions, though to be fair it is an insta-kill unit (to this day i dont know what weird crack they took when they thought that would be a good idea)
All legends have a beginning, but a LEGACY LASTS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
0:55 Carrier: "Mommy! I want that gun too!"
2:05 Totally not death ray.
That carrier wishes it could handle three battlecruisers
"That carrier"
That Carrier can handle the collision course with Overmind :)
By retaining the dark and political atmosphere of the original SC1 you managed to create a cinematic which is far better than anything I have seen in SC2. Well done, Sir! You truly understand Starcraft!
Yeah SC1 was brutal and in SC2 it feels like everyone is one big family. It sucks!
dweliq The games are essentially identical... the gameplay is almost exactly the same. It's still the most brilliant and best RTS in the world. What you mean is: the *story* sucks. Which is true, but Starcraft is best for its fantastic strategic gameplay, and SCII is constantly improving on the model, SC: Broodwar was not aging well, so they updated it and called it SCII. It's every bit as fantastic as the original.
In terms of story: It's actually a pretty normal quality story by today's standards, go to the movies and I bet you can't find any Sci-Fi movies that are any better than SCII's storyline. SCII's story, doesn't suck: that's not it, the thing is SC1's story was *ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!* better than any other story in existence. To say SCII's story sucks is a little erroneous, because you're comparing it to the single best told story that was ever told: SC1.
The disappointment you feel is because SCII did not live up to your expectations: and I agree, it was disappointing to see. But SCII's story doesn't suck, it just does compared to SC1s. Starcraft as a franchise is never going to suck. Ever. It's always going to be the best RTS in the world.
Alonso de Hojeda This vid had no politics in it at all, it was a really awesome vid for a fan made thing, don't get me wrong! I did +1 it, quite well done. But blizzard's cinematics are fantastic, you can't deny this: and how dare you say this is better than the Kerrigan's Betrayal cinematic in WoL? It captured the essence of the moment from SC1 awesomely, and gave us a new perspective, as well as being extremely well assembled! That cinematic shows the true scope of the brilliance of Blizzard's cinematic team!
Alonso de Hojeda SC 2 is more of a love story -_- but SC 1 focused more on the war itself
Geegee Tomlinson What you're saying simply isn't true. The gameplay is VERY different. SC2 was NOT an improvement of the strategic depth of Broodwar. The gameplay, especially big fights, have become very accelerated and thus uncontrollable in SC2. While Broodwar had elements that would decelerate fights (lurkers, spider mines, reavers) that gave players time to re-group and re-engage in a different way, SC2 barely has such a thing. Force fields, Infestors, Colossi, Banelings, Marauders require minimal micro, yet deal tremendous damage in a fight and put pressure not on the player controlling these units but the one being attacked. It's a very serious flaw and is the reason why frustration levels in SC2 are much higher than in Broodwar. People are frustrated because they feel helpless and not in control of the situation, and it's mainly because damage output has become so fast. The bonus damage system doesn't help, either, when in Broodwar you had a system that would halve or quarter the damage depending on unit type.
***** Broodwars decelerated gameplay had a lower skill cap than SCII's fast paced action, many of the units are still the same and many of the mechanics are identical, the faster paced gameplay has given the game a higher skillcap yes, and Blizzard intends to make it even faster still - it's not less balanced, it's just *harder*. There are far more mistakes that can be made - nobody can play SCII perfectly, and that's one of the reasons why it's such a good strategy.
For the record, the counter-micro at high levels make banelings and mutalisks very very hard to control, landing good baneling connections is *extremely* difficult against the likes of Mvp or Bomber or some other professional Terran.
It gave starcraft MORE strategic depth, not less, you're either angry because your favourite game got changed and you don't like change (which is common, you're not the only one with such psychological deficits), or, you're extremely bad at starcraft and you're whining about the game getting harder; nothing wrong with that, but a lot of people like the complex mechanical challenge.
This was phenomenal! Well done sir
"no terrans were actually harmed in the making of this video in accordance whot the Koprulu sector laws of fairplay" lol!
We're not monsters.
As far as I know, that was actually Chau Sara, sister planet to Mar Sara where the first part of the original Starcraft campaign takes place. The events here take place a short time before the original Starcraft Campaign.
That Marine is like "fire from space? Bring it on! *closes helmet*"
Man if the protoss never limited their technology or birthrate, they'd have never lost to the zerg period.
Who's here in 2024? Still looks amazing!
Whoa... as soon as that last narration came in at the end, a military Helicopter flew over my property...
Wish there was a movie with Protoss and Terran as an alliance.
A movie, or just a cutscene? Starcraft has a few cutscenes with Reynor's Battlecruiser cruising alongside Protoss Carriers.... But a legit combat scene with terran/protoss vs zerg hordes would be sweet as Hell.
Alien vs Predator?
You sir make awesome Starcraft Videos! Don't you dare stop!
I am Terran. But with the treachery in the Terran Dominion, I have pledged myself with the Protos. An intellectual race. I am Admiral 8Q.
*****
So, Raiders?
The Zerg were brought on Chau Sara by the Terran Confedracy as a weapon test. They never intended to really rescue any of the people there.
The Protoss Carrier they are engaging was the most powerful ship of the Protoss (with Executor Tassadar on board!) at that time in the lore, so obviously it's going to be incredibly powerful.
"Judicator recall the fleet"
kkkkkkkkkkkk
AMAZING!!!!
Using the game's mecahnics, this matchup wouldn't play out like it did, but from a story-telling perspective it can work. It can be bought that Tassadar's Carrier is top of the line amidst its class.
*****
Yeah, obviously, no shit, but that doesn't stop some people from calling foul on what's shown here.
ummm you do realize that those are Grantrithor's one of the super carriers, a unit that was not usable in Starcraft.
"The super carrier destroyed every terran ship regardless of affiliation to stem the infestation. Only the terran flagships, Hyperion and Norad III, escaped" so this one super carrier showed up and wiped out the Terran fleet..
gantrithor is playable in the last mission.
protoss dragoon yes but not in multiplayer which is what a lot of these people obviously are crying about and either forgot or never played through the SC story
protoss is so cool they got the best weapons and look awesome, they all have something glowing on them, i love it. and everything they have is insanely powerful
feels more like StarCraft than StarCraft 2 ever did...
When tassadar brought that many carriers but none returned after the mission the hunt for tassadar
You should have these original animations in their own playlist, and you should definitely make more. They are just as good as anything Blizzard has made! :)
This is what Protoss mains imagine doing to their opponent. That is, if they survive long enough
That was pretty cool, would been nice to see at least one yamato cannon go off....lol
in the gameplay the units carriers don't have lazers cannons, but check it out in this way, the fisrt video of the game Starcraft, a carrier used that lazer, and the story say that a vast fleet eradicated all the planet.
Damn protoss, going and creating Char for the zerg
I WANT A STARCRAFT MOVIE NOW !! those cinematic scenes are AWESOME !!!
Back in my days almost noone knew that Stracraft actually had movies like Warcraft 2 - all copies floating around were bootleg and cut.
Ah yes.. starcraft.. Fun-fact the 13th number in a starcraft CD key (usless since its free to play now) was a check-sum of the other 12. This meant you could put in ANY 12 numbers, and by simply cycling through 0-9 on the last digit you would get a valid key
@kyr200 yes it was him. If u remember on SC1 the text u saw when u begun to play the Terran Campaign u saw the sentence "A Protoss flet under Tassadar's Leadership came to burn all live on Chau Sara" thats the beginning of SC1, and many people hope that thats the Trailer for an SC Film
Still awesome after all this time. Can't wait for Legacy of the Void !
never thought I'd see a Confederate flag on a battlecruiser. 2020 never ceases to surprise me, even on its last day.
The Human faction in Star Craft was called The Confederacy before it turned into an Empire by a coup d'etat. But pre coup Battlecruisers had the Confererate flag (which would be the right time for this first contact)
Still, using that flag in a video game has not aged well.
@@AlexJones-ue1ll Why hasn't it aged well? Because it might offend some liberals? Lol
this is an excellent animation!
Oh my God! It's just like SC1! Fantastic work!
@StyleKrong that is the so called "Supercarrier" :D
Wow...this is great! Why did i not know about this 10 years ago? Well done!
"So...Does anybody know the XO?"
"Captain Buck....He's an idiot"
Tassadar: how do these idiots even SURVIVE out here?
Chris, this may be 2 more later on a comment. but U sir, deserve alot of credit for the work u do. Final Metamorphosis is also one that deserves 5 stars.
wtf is this? heresy! protoss doing some exterminatus thing on that planet the Emperor is not pleased!
Sorry, this was in the reign of the confedercy, not Megnsk.
De Wolfie I think Adeptus Astartes is referencing Warhammer 40k, not Starcraft.
docsein1
Does Warhammer 40k have Protoss?
eldar is the best choice against them
@lesuxdix Not a yamato gun, but they have other weapons aside from interceptors in the lore.
These guys should have done the cinematics for SC2.
I do wanna point out one inconsistency with canon, mar Sara wasn’t cracked, she just had her surface scorched.
That was Chau Sara in the video, not Mar Sara.
"No terrans were actually harmed in the making of this video" lol
@Drvelasco45 Since interceptors made Wraith Missle noises as they flew....
1:48
"Yeah....my day is gonna suck"
"I'll just call for a pickup from one of our BC's - oh....."
you actually can notice the aqua tint at around 1:26. The others are blue and that one has its aqua tint.
Since when do Carriers shoot lasers?
From StarCraft wikia:
Carriers have forward mounted energy weapons used for purification; they lack other armament beyond interceptors. The computer-controlled Interceptors are unleashed in swarms against other ships.
Due to game mechanics - purification - was not introduced since Carriers are already a formidable unit as it is.
Hope this helps, bro :)
Carrier vs 3 BCs Carrier wins.... logic
It's probably a hero carrier (one with higher stats than usual+more abilities, i.e. kinda like zeratul in the WoL campaign) vs 3 normal BC.
It's not just a Carrier. It's a GANTRITHOR!
KoraxProductions Yep.
That was Tassadar i believe. The ships color was teal so it had to be a hero carrier.
Still does not 100% explain the laser beams from the carriers but those could just be planet killers or something so for power reasons not used in combat (normally) idk just throwing ideas on the wall.
@KuunLan87 Even in the official lore, he did purge the first planet. Only on the second one did he spare the Terrans, by delaying the purge. I also tried to portray his regret here, when deciding to attack the hostile Terran fleet.
A Super Carrier would NEVER be able to take on 3 Battlecruisers. Even if they weren't Behemoths and were instead Leviathans, NO ONE UNIT ALONE could take 3 Battlecruisers.
PauLWaFFleZ in the official lore, the game even states that the Terran Battlecruiser is the single most powerful ship created.
Yes I'm well aware of this. In both BW and SC 2, Battlecruisers take out Carriers without too much of a struggle. Humans >>>>>>>> Protoss
coghostfox Well, the Artanis ship in LotV is quite powerful too
because three terran ships could totally destroy a ship that can kill off entire planets. makes total sense.
Suampeh Artanis BW Scout
56 damage. (Drops the mic)
No. Supposedly every carrier had a purifier beam. its just they didnt use it often since it required a massive amount of energy to fire.
Protoss imba
SCLegacy is in the process of moving over all the original content from the previous channel it appears. I don't know for certain... perhaps there will be more exciting / new video in the future?
Protoss OP
Best rts ever.
I prefer this classic much more gritty looking Terran Battlecruiser over the new chunky, puffed up new SC2 BC.
The old one also transmits its huge scale much better, due to more smaller details and distinct shapes.
SC1 BC is like western cartoon while SC2 BC is like eastern anime style.
Screw you guys, screw you for showing me such an
epic, amazing video clip... because now I want more,
not like a little bit more, I'm talking feature length film
more would be awesome and I know that isn't coming ;-(
(or is it?) :D :D :D
Seriously though, amazing work guys, I loved it!
The reality is super carriers like Tassadar's Gantrithor exist and even the most advance Battlecruiser doesn't even come close to matching it in any respect. Terran's lack the technology and the biology to ever truly contest the Protoss if they were keen on wiping them out like they are with the Zerg. Of course for balance's and perspective sake Terran are given a handicap in game and in lore.
+gotriceandshrimp but protoss lack numbers and they are cripply overspecialized, it's easy for terrans to recruit/train new specialists/soldiers/engineer/etc. but it takes decades for protoss.
Terrans has potential, protoss are a finished product, their thinking process is very dull compared to humans. Most of protoss tech is just a bad ripoff from Xel'Naga tech and not their own, where Terrans achived their tech on their own from the stone age and when humans get their hands on protoss tech they try to use it in a more rational way, improving it using their practical minds without all that religion-look-a-like crap protoss high on. I mean look at WoL campaign and everything Raynor Raiders get with just a bit of protoss tech, it's even hinted in the description of a refinery (automated). Like for example those protoss bitches even lack good medicine and can't repair their tech in the field, fucking retards.
If terrans in corprulu sector has the same level of tech as protoss, zerg had no chance, protoss probaly too. Idk, but i think even UED can kick those duchebags.
+Yecowa decades? a zealot takes 500 years
mateo rivera 50 decades... derp :D
***** dat lifespan tho
50 decades to train a zealot? Yeesh, they must be a bunch of retards.
At least 25 Carriers recalled in. Along with Scouts, plus the Arbiter itself. Nice to be able to go above the supply cap :)
Everything you can do, Protoss can do better.
@LordXerpentoR That was Tassadar when he first met the Terrans.
Jack O'neill-------THESE GUYS
Captain Kirk------WOULD SAY HELLO
Bill Adama--------BEFORE FIREING.....
starcraft terrans did very wrong.....
Kirk, yes. However, Bill Adama had the remnants of the colonies to fret over and would've thought "better safe than sorry" if he even remotely believed they were cylons.. and Jack O'neill? please.. without Daniel Jackson, O'neill would've gutted every jaffa on sight. ^^
Thats come down to you from the stargate and battlestar series ?
Oneill is the military aspect of the sg1 team, but his spirit is in the right place, he wouldnt gutted every jaffa without tealc or even daniel. Without them he would choose the fight but allways as last resort.
You underestimate the wisdom of Adama. He have responsibility about the civil fleet, but thats mean avoid fight, and be aware in contacts. If he would look out the window, and/or check the radar picture, he could rekognise, its not a base star...soo he would like "Be aware, its can be a trap, but dont fire before my command"..... Maybe you are a pure Trekkie and dont like bsg and sg, but you should rewatch both series....
zatnikutel
You really shouldn't assume anything about my fandom unless you know me. I have the ultimate collection boxsets of both shows and consider myself a die hard gater. ^^ But i still stand by my opinion; without Jackson in his life to soften him up, O'neill would have remained a bitter gung-ho military man, actually probably more like Mayborne than anything else, just more brooding and not quick with the witty comebacks (watch the season one episode "There but for the grace of God", in which Jack is willing to slaughter people on Chulak because he never met Daniel, also, he is an absolute wreck in the motion picture from -94 before he met Daniel, watch it. Its not exactly a stretch to think that he would be a "fire first, ask questions later"-kind of guy if Jackson hadnt had such a huge influence on him) and Adama has proven several times that he has no qualms whatsoever in taking a hardline approach. Hell, he even tried to lead a coup de tas against Roslin. Just because they are viewed as generally sympathetic characters doesnt mean that they would always act exactly the way you want them to or expect them to. I'm just being realistic and analytical, weighing the best and worst of their characters against the proposed scenario and projected outcome.
@Isrealroy it says flagship at the very beginning, pay attention
oh, there's a giant ship, let's attack it for no reason !
there is a unknown giant vessel bigger then our biggest ships on a intercept course with our planet attacking the approaching ship is the most logical course of action what could the ship be here for peace, resources, war, general hell
The awesomeness of this video is over 9000!!!!!!!
надоело искать русский коммент, поэтому - вот он!
I was hoping this would be a one-to-one remake of the opening scene from the first game, but this is still really nifty.
Terran fail
LMAO!!!!!!
" No terrans were actually harmed in the making of this video in accordance with the koprulus sector laws of fairplay" LMAO!!!!!
this was fuken most excellently awesome!!!!
@certainlymaybe You know what an estimate is right? 100,000 times more massive than an SCV. It means its big enough for control rooms, weapons, crew, all kinds of tools for all kinds of missions, warp space drives, factories, etc, the bigger the ship the more room you have to work with. The closest 'size' i can find for voidrays make them half the size of a BattleCruiser, thats huge and all firepower, its called a counter. What is the Gantrithor, if not a massive carrier?
First time seeing this. I’m glad that I was right and carriers don’t just have interceptors and that they also have a big pew pew. I haven’t played sc1 just sc2
@XDelusions666X If you have read the Novel, then you would know that a Protoss Carrier can shoot plasma rays; it is only restricted during gameplay as this ability is considered OPB and Blizzard did not include it as a default ability.
Legends have a beginning does not contradict or otherwise create another expectation about legacies. A quote that sounds smarter than it is.
By the way, I am only aware of "First Contact" and "Final Metamorphosis". Are there any more?
Great video. Love the Starcraft 1marine's rifle. So awesome.
The precursor to the contemporary Terran Dominion was the Terran Confederacy, ruled from Tarsonis before that Planet was destroyed by the Zerg (called down by the Psi Emitter placed by Mengks' Sons of Korhal outfit in the first Starcraft game). The Confederacy, in a joke that may or mar not have been recognized in-universe, carries the same flag as the Terran Confederacy. It should be noted that many Terran characters have a southern accent (Duke, Mengsk Sr., Raynor, etc.)
@Maxenceperron
maybe its the granithor? there are different versions of carriers in the protoss fleet.
This got me more in a StarCraft mood than SC2 did.
The protoss carrier the Executor Tassadar used. Amped up shields interceptors etc.
@certainlymaybe Back in my original posts i pointed out how ineffective armor on space ships was in the first place, thats exactly why. Forget 100,000, it was an estimate comparing them to an SCV, they are much larger than that. My complaint is terrans have force fields but dont use them, Protoss ships are VERY frail without shields. BC's estimated to be about 500-650m to over 1000m depending on the class. One shotted by a drone ship, terrans dont get no CGI justice
Why does the Gantrithor have a Frontal Wave Motion gun that can snap shot a Battlecruiser before it can fire its Yamato?
"Fuck you he's Tassadar that's why."
Blizzard should have hired this voice actor (Phillip Sacramento) to voice Tassadar in SC2. Definitely the best impression I've heard yet.
well according to the lore, the Carrier are not that different from a BC, store smaller protoss aircraft like scouts and arbiter (except the lack of smaller gun batteries), so the interceptors only used as they're called, intercept. But for the gameplay... well you get the idea
