@BotRetro7 жыл бұрын
nathaniel353 seeing how we never heard anything about purifiers in StarCraft 1 - only in Expanded universe - Blizzard can do say whatever they want in Expanded universe and then make it canon. I doubt they will do anything positive with Aldaris if anything at all, because for some reason he's only a "betrayer" now - people ignore the fact that he actually saw Kerrigan's treachery coming and refused to take part in it. Aaaand Raszagal has a replacement now - the new DT matriarch, so she's not really necessary. (Despite the fact that Zeratul was made a new leader directly by Raszagal)
@XochiCh7 жыл бұрын
Matriarch =/= DTs Leader, also, remember that the United Protoss saw Zerathul as a betrayer until he died.
@BotRetro7 жыл бұрын
Fiusha Ironfoot Matriarch is a rank of DT leader. She was giving orders to Zeratul and other Protoss characters throughout the BW Protoss campaign. The only question is how many Protoss she commands - Raszagal asks Zeratul to be responsible for the future of her tribe - size of the tribe was not mentioned.

I thought about a concept of Fenix as Zealot - Assasin which would transform upon dying into Dragoon - Warrior type of hero but this mechanic seems very unlikely due to Bronzies sacrificing Dragoon to be an Assasin again. Hero would be interesting for people with brain, but there are brainless people on this game too (I look at you, solo healer offensive Kharazims)... But maybe Zealot/Dragoon Warrior type of character might be cool.
