    As for Selendis, I believe it's somewhat implied that she is the player character in the protoss campaign, similar to Matt Horner in Rebel Yell. As you said, neither are actually confirmed or non-confirmed, unless you read the books in which it's confusing because the player character doesn't exist.
    And really weird how you got that funky-ass epilogue and an unnecessary callback to the original, clearly the true ending was Zeratul merging with Tassadar to become the archon Zeradar and one shotting Amon.
    Zeradar is indeed an original unit, as Tassadar/Zeratul was in the editor and the single strongest unit in the game.

      I feel the Cerebrate does not get any due respect. He was to be placed amongst the greatest of the Overmind's cerebrates, and if ever his flesh would fail, that flesh would be made anew. So what happened? Killed off screen by a nameless dark templar. And like most expendable flunkies, he never even earned a name. Weak.

    If I can say one thing though Stukov at the end of SC1 was uninfested at the end of the secret mission with Zeretul where you uninfest Stukov but in SC2 Stukov is infested again and killed Narud and technically SC2 Stukov is a new unit thus allowing Xelnaga Kerrigan to kill Amon as Xelnaga Kerrigan is a new unit.
    But that wouldn't have allowed for that spectacular ending, great job man keep up the good work.
