In one the most common bootleg translation back in the 1990-s of SC1, the Overmind was called "Надмозг" (Nadmozg), which rougly translates as "Abovebrain" and sounds hilariously in russian, while the correct translation is Сверхразум (Sverkhrazum). And still, to this day, when some ppl see a bad translation (Not necessarily by a machine), ppl remember aforementioned blunder and it somewhat sipped outside of gamer culture. So, all praise the Nadmozg, our great leader!
This reminds me about Polish bootleg translation of Half-life, where nihilanth was translated as Nihilista meaning Nihilist. So while fighting him i just imagined him as a edge teen listening to "My Chemical Romance". It didn't help that he was voiced by some guy with very heavy Russian accent (like every other character in old bootleg translations) who barely spoke Polish.

Not serve, comrade, but work freely and dilegently for the common good of the Swarm, for there's no place for exploitation of a zerg by a zerg under communism! From each according to their stats, to each according to their requirements of minerals and gas!
This was in an alternate timeline where Zeratul travels in time to prevent the assimilation of Kerrigan but insteads creates a reality where all humans get infested, making a conflict between only Protoss(Now names the Allied Tribes) and Zerg(Now called the Zerg Unity), eventually this would bites the Overmind(In this universe being the fussion between Stukov and the Overmind) back in the ass when Duran makes his own army of mind-controlling infested terrans in a expansion called Duran's Revenge. This story would be retconned after another time travel by Mengsk and Duke, creating another timeline, another third power called the Rising Korhalian Dominion who wants to conquer the Koprulu sector for them and another new war.
Ha, I can still understand Soviet anthem lyrics and I love it. Seize the means of kaydarian crystals production so that Overmind may commence essence redistribution! Btw ever wondered why Zerg heroic units are red while other’s are green?
Terran Adjutant: Not enough minerals, insufficient vespene gas Protoss Advisor: You have not enough minerals, you require more vespene gas Soviet Overmind: WE require more minerals, WE require more vespene gas
"Now you have grown strong enough to bear the rigors of warp travel with the Swarm... ...I AM ESCAPING TO THE ONE PLACE THAT HASN'T BEEN CORRUPTED BY CAPITALISM.... ..... SPACE!!!!!!!!!"
Dude! i just realized something! a quote from one of the very first terran campaign... Raynor: I can't believe you're gonna trust this snake! Arcturus: Don't worry, Jim, he's ⚒OUR ⚒ snake now.
aren't the zerg more of a dictatorship or an oligarchy society? (like the overmind and his cerebrates or Kerrigan with her queens) similarly, aren't the protoss more of a communist society as well? (it seems to me that no singular protoss actually owns anything)
The Zerg hive mind doesn’t really fit any human model of governance. Most Zerg aren’t even sapient, and the ones that are only have some autonomy over their own actions. It doesn’t fit real life hive minds either, because in an irl hive mind all drones are controlled by the pheromones emitted by other drones (Queen is just for reproduction) whereas Zerg are controlled directly through a psionic hierarchy. The Protoss are certainly communist in the property sense, but communism is also stateless and classless. The Protoss have a very powerful central government and a strict caste system until LotV. If Artanis reformed the Daelaam into a decentralized democracy after eliminating the caste system then he would be communist!
Not really comparable, the Overmind and the Cerebrates are the will of the Swarm. Without them, Zerg are nothing more than a collection of wild animals. It's like the Zerg are a singular organism, and they are the brain.
I am both in awe and terrified of your mind, Nral. I mean, you wake up on any given day and think of stuff like that. I pity your enemies! Also i do wonder what insightful wisdom the Reaver would have brought in that conversation...
I'll just steer Prism Tanks against these abominations via Chronosphere. No regrets. (Hope you'll do more of this, Executor, ranging from Tiberian Dawn Remastered to Tiberium Wars+Kane's Wrath.)
I suppose you can introduce your "Comrade" Overmind Glasnost. Wait. I've been told by Tassadar it's going to be...Gantritnost. Here comes the Gantritnost!
Funnily enough, the Zerg come from Heinlein's Bugs in Starship Troopers, and the Bugs work in a socialist-communist society according to the combat experience in the Korean War against the Chinese Red hordes
With the might and the fury that is our heritage. There is an android app called Starcraft Voice Changer. I made the zerg sounds effects with that application.
Robert Heinlein, in his Starship Troopers wrote that bugs are communist. Since everything featuring intelligent hivemind that came after is based on Psedo-Arachnids I guess this is legit.
This was funny, coincidentally i was playing broodwar and i made another StarCraft profile from my main and titled it “soviet union army” and i play terran and only use tanks and marines lol
In Russia, Overmind steers Gantrithor into collision course with Tassadar.
*In Soviet Char
Our Gantrithor
The Overmind steers Tassadar into a collision course with the Gantrithor.
Or maybe Overmind steers collision course into Gantrithor with Tassadar.
@@vim9099 On Soviet Aiur. Because that's where the Overmind was at the time.
"Claw and caparace" are the new "hammer and sickle"
A moment of silence for all cerebrates that joined the cause and didn’t make it
Your vodka can wait, my good Overmind
We are ready to go all the way.
In Soviet Russia, Terrans infest Zerg.
Dem.. that's like Raynor's dream come true! Infesting Kerrigan xD
With socialism
"Infest" Zerg you say?
Terranized zerg hatchery. Produces robotic burrowing vulture mine like zerglings
You should watch “how to play Terran” by Carbot Animations

Ох уж эти легендарные кривые пиратские переводы. Всегда лучше оригинала
Tassadar: “Mr. Overmind, tear down this wall!”
Overmind: _demolishes one spore colony_
Tassadar: “Here comes the Gantrithor!”
Overmind: “Cyka blyat!”
Truely Soviet Overmind is just too OP
With the removal of dislikes, let us reintroduce the star rating system, as approved by the Conclave:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ True Protoss Warrior
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amusing
⭐⭐⭐ Acceptable
⭐⭐ Clearly, you have failed us
⭐ HERESY
There's actually an extension that adds them back, called "Return UA-cam Dislike", but this is also a good idea
As a Protoss Warrior I would like to suggest to make 'Amusing' the 5 star rating.
Turn to 40k real quick
Amon: Overmind, is the invasion of Aiur done?
Overmind: No, Xel'Naga premier. It has only begun.
Cerebrate: Pleeease! Your omnipotence. Have mecry!
Fenix: After you scrub all the floors in Antioch, THEN we can talk about mercy!
When your combat medics accidentally administered vodka into Overmind instead of neuro-stim drugs.
Medic: Sorry sir. We'll fix it.
Overmind: No no, keep administering. This is nice.
As a russian man, I think Overmind president is quite real and quite good.
better than putin?
@@athanasiospapazoglou7310 Anything better than Put In.
WE require more minerals.
“After you’ve polished all the Gateways on Aiur, then we can talk about mercy! Take him away!”
Ah yes, the timeline where Stukov served successfully the Overmind and became the Premier of Blades.
AWAKEN OUR CHILD AND EMBRACE THE GLORY THAT IS OUR BIRTHRIGHT
KNOW THAT WE ARE COMRADE OVERMIND THE TOTAL WILL OF OUR SWARM
AND THAT YOU HAVE BEEN CREATED TO SERVE WITH US.
Not serve, comrade, but work freely and dilegently for the common good of the Swarm, for there's no place for exploitation of a zerg by a zerg under communism! From each according to their stats, to each according to their requirements of minerals and gas!
Starcraft: Red Alert
Now with Tim Curry as the Overmind.
Well he did. space!
A great video. If you make another Soviet Zerg video please make it a Red Alert crossover.
Yes.
"I will go to the one place uncorrupted by capitalism. Auir!"
Instead of Overlords we've got Kirovs for supply. That would be beyond neat.
And while we are at it, why not just throw inHarkonnens from Westwood's Dune games as well. They pretty much play like Soviets too.
@@masterexploder9668 hehehe. Nice name.

The video starts playing.
Me: *Stands up*
Absolute perfection
that reference to zelda cdi is sweet in taste
Mercy? After you've scrubbed all the floors in Antioch, then we can talk about mercy! Take him away!
Yes, Executor!
For the Soviet Swarm!
Now Imagine Overmind just steamrolling everything with Apocalypselisks
Ha, I can still understand Soviet anthem lyrics and I love it.
Seize the means of kaydarian crystals production so that Overmind may commence essence redistribution!
Btw ever wondered why Zerg heroic units are red while other’s are green?
Well defiler's last spell is "spread the red"! Lenin would be proud...
When the UED medics pacify the second overmind with a dose of Stukov's vodka.
*Our* brood
Was not expecting a Duke Onkled line, but that got a good chuckle out of me
Overmind: ...and we shall be *PERFECT*
Overmind always has Soviet. You didn't asked youself why he says: "WE require more minerals" and "OUR forces are under attack!"
Your vodka can wait overmind
In Soviet Swarm minerals require more you
Executor, I will steer the Gantrithor into a collision course with the Berlin Wall.
Being russian I can't stop laughing :)
It's hilarious cuz it's so true.
I'm a infested Terran I LIVE FOR SOVIET SWARM
I guess, that Gantrithor is capitalism incarnate
It would actually be a really cool premise for a story if there was a cerebrate who decided to just do trade with humans/toss.
Terran Adjutant: Not enough minerals, insufficient vespene gas
Protoss Advisor: You have not enough minerals, you require more vespene gas
Soviet Overmind: WE require more minerals, WE require more vespene gas
You got me with the Duke Onkled reference. Your taste in memes grows ever more refined, Nral.
Is it done, Overmind?
- No, comrade Cerebrate. It has only begun.
"Now you have grown strong enough to bear the rigors of warp travel with the Swarm...
...I AM ESCAPING TO THE ONE PLACE THAT HASN'T BEEN CORRUPTED BY CAPITALISM....
..... SPACE!!!!!!!!!"
Oh, it's the StarCraft/Red Alert crossover I've always dreamed of :)
This is not Warcraft in space! This is Red Alert in space! It is much more sophisticated! 😛
I guess Stukov give Overmind vodka
now i'm picturing tassadar blasting patiotic captialism from the gantithor while screaming yippy ki yay
This might be my favorite of all of 'em.
We all know the POV cerebrate would totally just own the rest of the swarm in combat with just his brood should he have a reason to.
Dude! i just realized something! a quote from one of the very first terran campaign...
Raynor: I can't believe you're gonna trust this snake!
Arcturus: Don't worry, Jim, he's ⚒OUR ⚒ snake now.
*Team America main theme in the background as Tassadar stirs the Gantrithor in a collision course with The Overmind.*

Truly, the political system of starcraft is a very interesting obscure thing to dive into... Thank you for your insights
I am both in awe and terrified of your mind, Nral. I mean, you wake up on any given day and think of stuff like that. I pity your enemies!
Also i do wonder what insightful wisdom the Reaver would have brought in that conversation...
As a communist, I agree. For our Red brood!
meanwhile Tim Curry is waking up his child and making it know that he is the Chancellor, the eternal will of the Soviet Union
Plot twist: this was even before the Swarm assimilated Stukov.
Peяfection, Comяade.
That brings a whole new meaning to Zerg Russ'n.
Rush Z !!!

My life for communism. Overmind lived, Overmind lives, Overmind will live!
so thats why the dark templar were able to kill the cerebrate
"We were learning, expensively, just how efficient a total communism can be when used by a people actually adapted to it by evolution"

The protoss can’t quite get it…
Aiur is OUR planet!
I am escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by Capitalism... SPACE !!
- Communist Tim Curry
- Here comes the Gantrithor

This is literally just Starcraft if it was developed in the height of the Cold War
Can't wait for the working drone class to rise up to greatness and raise building with their bodies... Wait
And now ladies and gentlemen we present from the overmind sing national anthem for Russia 0:01
Command and Conquercraft: Zerg Alert.
I must say, it really sounds like russian.
Unlike these series and movies that just make non russian speaking actors speak something inaudible.
How, just how did you do it?
With the might and the fury that is our heritage.
There is an android app called Starcraft Voice Changer. I made the zerg sounds effects with that application.

Noooooo
Stukov would be proud
