Scarlett: In the past, did I ever give you Canadians to experiment on? Abathur: Yes. Very bad. Small population, minimal competitive scene. Scarlett: I was born Canadian. Abathur: Rare Canadian individuals, high APM potential. Overcome flawed origins.

[@thefunnykid1412]

RIP General Warfield, he was pretty darn cool.

[@zsoltbota1990]

I really don't get why he needed to get killed off...

[@fuckologic1202]

@@zsoltbota1990 I too have no idea... the only thing that it accomplished for the story is that it made me (and all my friends who played the campaign) hate Kerrigan.... I feel like Warfield should be done into a commander in CO OP mode But instead we get Arcturus, who was a goddamn antagonist and Stettman, who's just plain annoying

[@ITNODove]

Fuckologic I don’t see what the problem with having Mengsk is. He’s a popular character and certainly more iconic than Warfield. He also has more to work into a commander I feel. That said I’d be happy to see Warfield as well.

[@jimmylee2241]

He was a pretty cool guy

[@zemtov]

@@zsoltbota1990 Simply..... he was in the way. It makes sense he would be the one in charge of Char..... its unfortunate yes.... but he had to leave char or die defending it. We know Warfield rather die there than run back with his tail between his legs. And after seeing Warfield slaughter the zerg forces without mercy even making THE BONE FIELD or whatever the fuck it was a mission back..... He might have survived the encounter even with all of that..... but he pissed her off mentioning Raynor and that sealed his fate

[@lonefish8128]

I won this mission by making around 250 banelings and right clicking on Warfield's compound. When I attacked a marine said "Too many banelings..." lol it seems blizzard developers considered this strategy to be useful too xD

I always feel bad for uncle warfield :( loved that guy Yes he served a regime, but once you get to know him, he seems like a pretty nice guy.

[@davidjapuntich3860]

General Warfield is still on Char because Mengsk ordered him to keep the remaining Zerg in check, if not eliminate them completely. Izsha is not the brain of the Leviathan. Leviathans follow the orders of the Overmind, Cerebrates, Brood Mothers, or Kerrigan just like most Zerg. Izsha is inspired by the Terran Adjutants and was created to store Kerrigan's memories and act as an advisor.

[@Miesha88]

She was also a downed Banshee or Dropship pilot that Kerrigan picked up during the Brood War. So Izsha is also a former Terran.

[@iohanb211]

[@franciscodetonne4797]

[@sandersndergaardiversen1110]

i would say they are the "barfy boys"

[@NewTypeDilemma01]

Let's see, forced out of retirement, helps Valerian in his plan to deinfest Kerrigan (in essence, committing treason in the process), brought _back_ into Arcturus's half of the Dominion armed forces, and dies to the very person he risked both his life and freedom to deinfest. Let's face it: Warfield's life _really_ sucked, especially if you completed Media Blitz and exposed Mengsk--and Warfield was actually _part_ of the Sons of Korhal, and helped the serpentine bastard rise to power, likely not knowing what Mengsk did to Tarsonis. Last game: Raynor: "Good to see you back on your feet, General." Warfield: "Yeah? We'll see how long that lasts." Then _this_ story happens. The end cutscene also has a version for non-Primal Kerrigan, as well. Nice bit of foresight on Blizzard's part.

[@NewTypeDilemma01]

Strange, I thought it was _always_ in there. I had the thing on preorder download, unless they had some type of patch. Hell, a snippet from this cutscene was used in one of the pre-release trailers. You might have been unfortunate enough to find a bug in your playthroughs.

[@NewTypeDilemma01]

They needed to do that? Maybe. If this is the case, I'm glad they patched Primal version in. I think this cutscene ("Conscience") has more emotional impact after visiting Zerus than before. It hammers the fact that Primal Queen of Blades =/= to old Queen of Blades.

[@Axrector]

he sure is a cool guy, but a terrible general, failed to deter the zerg on all fronts, failed in the first assault on Char, fail to defend Char, pissed off Kerigan and got himself killed

[@NewTypeDilemma01]

In story, Warfield is _supposed_ to be a great general. But just like Edmund Duke, he has the misfortune of always being on the opposite side of yours (meaning him losing is inevitable). Plus, Gameplay 101: _everything_ is up to the player. If Warfield could pull off the assault on Char without a hitch, there wouldn't be a reason for the player to be present. That said, he _was_ smart in suggesting you take out the Orbital platform over Char as opposed to the Nydus tunnels (All In with enemy air on Brutal is considered by many to be the hardest mission in the game). Not to mention that he completely curb-stomped Zagara--it's heavily implied that he would have succeeded had Kerrigan not come to direct matters personally. Possibly justified by the fact that he might be used to taking on individual Broods under the command of Broodmothers, who only use limited tactics--facing off against Kerrigan herself when she's the one leading is a different matter.

[@007gollum8]

Absolutly right. At this point, I really find it hard to symphatise with Kerrigan anymore. Warfield was right with every point he made; Kerrigan killed houndrets of innocents, just think of the Protoss on Kaldir. At this point, I actually wonder if she was more humane under Amons influence...

[@Max58183]

Actually an interesting plot moment in the end of the mission. There were a heavy speculation that good old General Warfield had a very hard talk with Mengsk after WoL campaign, maybe even resocialized (read brain-washed) so he refused to withdraw from Char even in the direst situation (despite him being actually pretty benevolent to his men back in WoL). Sad part to me, good character just good killed. Now about the mission: very exciting for me, because it felt like I was playing the final mission from WoL in reversed order. Now we are commanding the never ending Zerg assault while Terrans do their hardest to survive. Good job here again, Blizzard! But honestly, the Nuclear Option part is *too easy* even on Brutal. Do you remember "Emperor's Fall: Ground Zero" mission? Every time the nuclear lauch was announced I was like: "Oh shi, oh shi, oh shi..." while storming the camera across all my positions and then "KA-BOOM!" and there goes my siege tanks or anything. And in this mission it still has the full marker on the ground and the mini-map. And the last thing (joke): - before the mission - Kerrigan: "We are not going to experiment on humans anymore!" - in the beginning of the mission - Zagara: "Here comes the Abberations! They are humans who were heavily exposed to the Zerg virus and turned into those terrible mutants! Oh, what did you just said, my Queen?"

But failing to destroy high school is normal. I mean it's literally the place where the strongest beings reside. Anything from super heroes in U.A., Karakura and its shinigamis, Kuou and its demons, North High and its god, alien and espers. The list goes on and on. Bloody hell, high school is THE scariest place on Earth! This evident by the fact that Voldy succeeded in overtaking the government yet failed taking a high school.

"Impaled by metal beam." "I'm fine Lieutenant, just see to those wounded."

[@thorveim1174]

He did that on purpose. It's basically so no one would send a rescue team after him, that would waste time for other survivors an probably get killed too. Even if he said he was injured but refused help, there was a chance his men would disobey and attempt to rescue him anyway. Warfield definitely knew what he was doing: letting himself die so that more of his men could make it out.

[@zaxtonhong3958]

26:23 The best cutscene in all of Starcraft 2. Tied with maybe "reclamation" and "fire and fury"

[@Kkylon]

Isha is a infested terrain adjutant. Just so you know Lowko!

[@haloplayeroflegend2515]

really? i doubt that.

[@NewTypeDilemma01]

That was indeed the initial concept, then BlizzCon 2011 had her backstory changed to having once been a Terran medic named Amanda Haley. Neither is alluded to in the final product, so Izsha's origins are still up in the air. I'd like to think that the latter is true.

[@nhagan001]

I love that idea. It would make sense to have some terran influence to enhance her intellect. Not to say that zerg beings can't be intelligent..... but even Zagara needed several "alterations" from Abathur before she was "Co Op partner ready"

[@WaterCrane]

I heard the story about the infested medic Amanda Haley too. The story got a little muddled in Heart of the Swarm in regards to the Zerg infesting Terrans, because the original reason for the Overmind infesting Terran worlds was because he saw their psionic potential as a stepping stone to becoming equal in power to the Protoss. I have my own theory, sort of backed up by Abathur's comment about Terrans having limited biological adaptability... "Purity of form" is Terran, not Protoss - it's just that the ancient prophecies were made by young Protoss who might have been a little bit vain. And a minor spoiler for the Legacy of the Void epilogue... Kerrigan is both Terran and Zerg... the unification of Purity of Form and Purity of Essence.

[@thorveim1174]

@@WaterCrane The rotoss ARE the purity of form intended by the xel'naga; they are all psionics after all, while only a very few select terrans are, and no terran ever appears in xel'naga prophecies. Terrans are a wild card: the xel'naga never tampered with them at all. Kerrigan is a special case: her psionc potential qualified her for the purity of form, and her zerg qualities gave her purity of essence: she was the ONLY being non aligned to amon to combine both qualities. Usually though it seems like the xel'naga wanted to ascend entire species at a time; that wouldn't have worked with terrans, which on the whole have neither.

[@unevennoble9363]

Btw, Izsha is actually an Zergified terran, in the same vein Zerglings are actually based on Dune hoppers. Alot of, if not every zerg unit has a base species. For example, the zerg infested Dune Hoppers, assimilating their essence, and those dune hoppers became the first Zerglings.

[@Crescendobro]

+LowkoTV Izsha is Kerrigan's personal diary/Adjudent from when she was the old Queen of Blades. She made Izsha to store her ideas, strategies and memories while also providing a source of perspective and alleviating Kerrigan of managerial duties. Kerrigan only made one of Izsha's Zerg Variant and she integrated her with the nervous system of Kerrigan's personal Leviathan. Think of her like an Adjudant with more personality, she's your secretary and she keeps things on the Leviathan running.

[@warrioroflight6872]

Spine crawlers: Pokey boys. Spore crawlers: Spitter boys.

[@PinnysVids]

At 20 minutes you mention that you're surprised you lost your whole army. That engagement is always difficult, but it becomes easier when you snipe tanks with carrygan (with kinetic blast or spawn banelings). Most of the time carrygan was shooting at buildings instead of being useful. That said, you have the macro to win these missions without any micro, so its all good.

[@kennethraison5523]

So for anyone playing this mission, and for you too Lowko :), the nukes are mostly targeting Kerrigan. So the best thing to do is make sure that Kerrigan is not near your base once Warfield starts launching the nukes. Just one of those things that can help you not have to micro your "pokey boys" and spores away from the nukes.

[@fuckgoogle2119]

If the spines are pokey bois I think the spores are spitty gals.

[@Cra3ier]

"squirty", you mean...

18:05 Kerrigan with the offensive GG

[@derektorres3092]

2:40 Izsha is connected to the leviathan she was put there by Kerrigan she’s the librarian of the Zerg the same way abathur is the scientist if the Zerg she is physically connected to the leviathan and uses it as her body she basically is the captain of the leviathan.

[@iohanb211]

not realy.. she is more like an terran adjutant. She is there to stor the memoriest and all that... but is not like Matt for the Hyoerion. Kerrigan controls the leviathan.

[@Leopol]

If the spine crawlers are called "poky boys", does that make the spore crawlers "blasty girls"?

[@andyl7677]

I agree with your opinion on aberrations for multiplayer. Zerg already has the least amount of different units, even counting overlords. They would have to be balanced though, I think 275 heath is a lot for what they cost.

[@disgaeajean13]

This was the most beautiful cutscene, because it shows Kerrigan's restraint is rooted in her own pain- she's been backed into that corner in the past, and when she needed help, she didn't receive any, though she didn't deserve to be neglected. Her decision not to reciprocate the violence that she was given shows she is more human than most non-infested terrans ❤️

[@thejackass8]

Ok so Izsha's fail leads directly to Abathur's body on the upper floor. They're like a snake with two ends. Cannot unsee.

[@Alpha0727]

Izsha is a Zerg Advisor, a unique, one of a kind zerg type created by Kerrigan herself. She has been physical grafted into the Leviathan to help support hive organization.

[@Skylair95]

If you're using mass mutas, wild mutation is your best friend since air units can stack up nicely while ground units can't. Also tankier mutas with buffed attack speed and glaive bouncing on 6 targets is pretty deadly.

[@morhiler]

Well around Blizzcon 2011 there was a backstory that Izsha used to be a terran medic by the name of Amanda Haley. She used to have some psionic potential, so when she was captured by the Queen of blades and attempted an escape, Amanda impressed Kerrigan enough to be mutated into her personal memory-stock-advisor-noseless-creauture rather then simply killed and\or eaten by the zerg. Unfortunately none of that is really mentioned in the campaign itself.

[@XochiCh]

Lowko, remember that Char used to be a Confederate Mining Colony before they where kicked out by the Kel-Morians, and they never bothered to re-establish mining bases in the planet.

[@neekorobison1458]

[@thorveim1174]

[@PowefulLucy]

Have Lowko noticed that Izsha not only doesn't have nose, not only she is connected to the leviathan but she also has human-ish arms which are kinda grown to her torso and she uses her hair as her limbs?

[@Khalek420]

2:50 pretty sure the term you're looking for is pilot. theres a b grade scifi show i adore called farscape. the main crew fly around in a giant sentient transport oddly enough also referred to as a leviathan (transport), and she guide by 'pilot' its kinda like Izsha

[@JotaDeeMeO]

Fun game Idea: Kerrigan asks you what's Vision! You fail? Go to Abathur for painful changes! Repeat til Win! Win? Kerrigan pets you.

[@TheKirout]

That cinematic made me cry back then

[@matiaslee4834]

The reason why Warfield stays in Char may be because it has valuable minerals and other resources that are abundant because of its volcanic nature. The Dominion would greatly benefit from mining operations, just as the WOL mission where you help Tosh in Redstone. It may also have the best zerg barbecue of all Koprulu.

[@jckcc]

The attention to detail is stellar. I played this mission before going to Zerus and you get another cinematic with human Kerrigan. Same high quality.

[@icsaknunesrossly7021]

it looks like upgrades the terrans have are the same ones that you got in the Terran campaign. the missile turrets have the scatter missile thingy, and the buildings have the anti fire drones.

I like that cinematics take into consideration your campaign progress. If you first go on char, kerrigan is in the ghost suit. Love the small details.

[@andykerr1263]

[@TheOneAndOnlyCrawl]

When you go for an attack with a big flock of mutas, use Kerrigans Buff ability on them first. Then they can easily go attack ito turrets and the attack speed helps them clear a lot of units

[@Nurk0m0rath]

Just a quick tip for anybody who wants to try mass muta in this mission: wild mutation and piercing glaive. This ability gets extremely overpowered when you can literally bunch up 50+ mutas into the effect area, and with double damage vs armored, the mutas will rapidly rip through anything that is particularly dangerous to them (like missile turrets, thors, and what have you) while under a 200 hp shield. ...and if you'd rather actually use aberrations, for Xel'Naga's sake bring some queens!

[@kirbysbestfan]

The coop mission you might be thinking of is the Sgt Hammer one since it uses this story missions assets.

[@nicodeklerk1617]

Izsha The lore states she was created by the Queen of Blades and is truly unique. If you do nothing for 2 minutes she will say something Random One of them is "Think I'll go for a walk" which hints at being seperate. The Voice actors name is Karen Strassman Leviathans There are many Leviathans as they are the main interstellar transport of all Zerg. They are infested space-borne creatures and existed in war as early as the fall of Aiur. Despite not having a detector passive icon, the leviathan is able to detect cloaked or burrowed units. Not sure if Izsha has infused herself with a specific Leviathan maybe but it seems she is seperate and just hanging around

[@Crescendobro]

The whole raid on Char was both a "We're Baaaaack" kinda move as well Char is one of the Zerg's main breeding grounds which is why she wanted to take it back. She killed Warfield because well one he made that Raynor jibe and also because he was still loyal to Mengsk and he has tons of military/tactical experience which would have made him a potent threat later on. Warfield stayed on Char to oversee the extermination of the rest of the Zerg remaining on the planet while they were disorganized from losing their Queen and also because this isn't that far in the future after Wings of Liberty, maybe a month if that.

[@sardauk3038]

Warfield stay on char because there was still lots of zerg to be purged. As you see in the other missions on char zergs have stock tons of eggs behind the surface and try to take Char back by attacking the fortress, so Warfield was not here "in case" the queen of blade return but to finish a war not other (even if Mengsk said the contrary).

[@f00dify]

I have to say Lowko using static defense is like when we found out that he's actually got legs. Mind-blowing​.

[@Dohyden2]

Isha is not the brain of the leviathan, she is its voice and a little of its vision so it can see who it is talking to. Isha is the interface and because interfaces don't need smell, no nose, no lungs, the air comes from the leviathan's lungs.

[@moonmooncross]

Lowko plz try the summon baneling skill, with the upgrades you getting soon, it’s really helpful for all type of missions. Free units every afew secs, and you can summon them right under a pack of enmity’s feet.

[@Ebiko]

units benefitting from the wild mutation most are air units - especially mutas if you clum up like 20 mutas on one spot and then wild mutation them . they go crazy

[@dathoang117]

Who would like to see Warfield as a co-op running around boosting the troops around him "this guy" lol

[@williamduan2322]

I'm pretty sure Izsha IS the leviathan. That would also explain the lack of nose, since she doesn't need a respiratory system or anything. Also, I think Warfield is here as some sort of banishment. He DID disobey Arcturus Mengsk, took half of the fleet, lost crown prince Valerian, let the Queen of Blades escape... Mengsk can't put him to death for obvious reasons since the guy is a war hero after he cleared Char. Instead, Mengsk decided to put him as far away as possible and literally put him in one of the most dangerous places in the universe. It could also be justified politically since Mengsk could claim that this is vital for national security

[@t.albertobarbosa8982]

Izsha is the uvula of the Leviathan.

Also with the nukes, they tend to aim them at Kerrigan and her army units, just rally them away from your bases to save them from the nukes

24:12 "If the spines are the pokey boys, what are the spores?" @Lowko, the spores are the pukey boys! 🤮

[@andresalejandrogazaba9885]

28:01 Well said General Warfield, indeed.

[@coxxen]

2:44 I do believe she's the living brain of the leviathan

[@porfiriomarkhernandezii57]

Taking expansion, along the way. Yes.

16:18 during replay: "oh no, at least drop off the gold minerals at the hive before you build something D:" during campaign: Doesn't even realize or doesn't care about the . . . like 28 minerals he lost

I think the names are Terran given after the invasion of Char from WoL. I also think this campaign is very well designed in making the player play to the Zerg strengths. Adaptation and war of attrition.

20:50 I've got a feeling! Ooo-Ooo! That's tonight's gonna be a good night!

[@Fitoju]

Hey Lowko zerling reconstitution make this mission so much easy, is for far the best ability, is painful just see you make more zerlings when you can have them for free

[@KeppyKep]

One of the best cinematics in my opinion. There are far more epic, flashier, fighty ones, but Warfield being awesome and Kerrigan's struggle is really cool.

[@Luhrak]

Finding a job where no legs are needed seems hard lowko. But becoming a Ishalike beeing seems convienient. You even get to controll zerg. I think you have some experience with that

[@bobjenkins8420]

General warfield wasn't a bad guy, he was a good man fighting for the wrong cause

[@TheTodeshaendler]

Isha is the "nerve core" of the leviathan she sais so herself the first time you met her lowko :)

[@alevel100onix5]

No Lowko, Iszha is a snake like advising creature...

[@Doc_Horror]

Warfields death is probably the saddest scene right next to zertuals death

[@hugo-kut8614]

If a spine crawler is a spiky bois, a spore crawler shoud be the spitty bois

[@abruemmer77]

As you seem to enjoy singing you should have sung "Je ne regrette rien" when General Warfield told you regretting! :D

[@detundra1325]

Lowko if want more dialogue on board the leviathan, go to skygear station next.

[@KobraLA]

Izsha's Terran name is Amanda Haley.

[@howlingdin9332]

Char is a high-value world to the Zerg. Warfield stuck around to clean them out and deny the Swarm from taking it back.

[@snowdrop9810]

Its kinda amazing how they have 2 of this cutscene in one where there was the primal queen of blades, and in the other she’s human kerrigan.
