[@reddragon3132]

Maybe the dark Templar where scarfs to cover their orifices and that's why Rohana hates them so much

[@LowkoTV]

That must be it! It's the only thing that makes sense.

[@mrdiamond2157]

Owen Well in the Lore as most starcraft fans know the was a great war between the protoss before the khala the xel’naga gods uprised them but they grew outta controller and some protoss denied the khala the judicators banished the ”Nerazim” from aiur just to be seen again in the The last judicator was eventually killed by kerrigan A.K.A ”The Queen of blades” so basicly The protoss was a primitive race uplifted by the Xel’Naga and the ”Nerszim” denied it’s ”glory”

[@mrdiamond2157]

And also i knew that you weren’t serius

[@atrudokht]

She may be annoying, but she will get better progressively and eventually understand the way of Artanis.

[@noobiwankenoobi3141]

they may even have a nose

[@jkoh93]

1 mission after this, fenix wont have a new conversation, but you gotta keep clicking him to hear his awesome stories

[@martianunlimited]

I prefer Talandar to Fenix :)

[@davidjapuntich3860]

Alarak makes the campaign much more fun. Artanis can become tiring very quickly by himself, but he makes the perfect foil for Alarak's snide remarks.

[@TheOnlyEpsilonAlpha]

"Do not forget to smile" Always makes me smile ☺️

[@TheXidolX]

im pretty sure that when you click on the pylon on the left of the bridge in the spear of adun a couple of times it will activate, deactivate, and activate again and then "perfect pylon activated" appears in the chat, its a pretty weird easter egg

[@AllSeerAugustus]

Alarak and Zeratul... Most awesome heros ever. Their voices are just on point.

[@Alpha0727]

Michael Angelo Fisher Of course Alarak is on point, he is voiced by John de Lancie!

[@psycho6776]

Voiced by Q himself.

[@darthvader4594]

10:32 terrazine is a dangerous drug indeed...

[@shinyvictorcarp]

Indeed

[@renatasapientia5972]

I just noticed you had your own warp prism in that last cutscene there, but as I recall it...you NEVER get to make warp prisms.

[@mordador2702]

Yey my favourite is here! "HOW SHALL YOU SERVE ME!"

[@cyriell]

2 years later me responding jup, But I love the "do you think I'm a fool" - vorazun "yes, but that is beside the point" - alarak

[@davidjapuntich3860]

Without noses or mouths, I always wondered what the Dark Templar thought their faces scarves were hiding...

[@gorrillawarfair]

David Japuntich their gross lack of orifices! I would hide that shit too.

[@davidjapuntich3860]

Ah. Kind of like when I hung a bunch of curtains in my office so no one realized I didn't have any windows.

[@spamarian]

David Japuntich lmao did it work?

[@hahashmala3047]

In fact it is much like an accessory used during breeding period I think

[@TicoB88]

Kakashi syndrome

[@maximusm-g7571]

now i can watch something while eating my chicken nuggets...

[@StarboyXL9]

TEEENDIIEEEESSS! jk jk lol

[@ballboys607]

15:40 There's actually a way for you to angle the Solar Lance to hit the pylon blocking the way and skip half the map.

[@ITAndroMedian]

"En Harud-Im" means "In honor of" in Khalani, the Protoss language. During the Wings of Liberty Zeratul's missions, you could've hear him saying "En Harud-Im Raszagal", and now Vorazun honors the recently destroyed Shakuras.

[@TheIndignation]

I know that "En Taro" is "In honor of", so "En Harud-im" might be something more like "In memory of" I think. Or they are essentially the same.

[@darthvader4594]

It is crazy to believe that all those millions of nerazim from shakuras got evacuated in just moments.

[@davidjapuntich3860]

Most were evacuated before or during the first Shakuras mission. The second one was about luring Zerg and Hybrid onto Sharkuras. Artanis was the only Protoss who waited until the very, very last moment.

[@Daniel-rd6st]

Also probably the majority of the population of Shakuras was already dead, when Artnis arrived.

[@FoxMikage]

Having warp technology makes evacuations faster. All they have to do is warp every protoss off the planet and onto the shuttles and Spear of Adun.

[@ladislavdobrovsky8826]

They were Protoss doing the evacuation. Of course if it was a terran world almost all inhabitants would perish with their orifices wide open

[@HiopX]

Typical Lowko, decides unit composition before even knowing what he's up against. When brutal is not hard enough

[@j.f.l.bousquet1998]

There's Brutal, and then there's Lowko difficulty, with the extra lowko-blindness to make it more challenging.

[@hahashmala3047]

Is there a mirror mode in Lowko difficulty ?

[@bubbasbigblast8563]

Purifier Zealots are probably the best of the three options: they make the best meat shields bar none, which is good, because Zealots don't tend to live very long in the campaign.

[@1un4cy]

I don't think anyone could have done Alarak better than John de Lancie.

[@TheIndignation]

Oh yeah, he really makes the character :D

[@erickchristensen746]

His voice is great in everything he does. But it did surprise me how he usually portrays a more goofy character and then suddenly I’m hearing him be this sinister snide badass lol

[@canebro1]

15:40 FYI, there is a fun speed-run tactic, use your solar lance on the pylon behind that force field to bring it down, skipping about 1/3 of the level. Note: you will need to defend a few attacks on your base, so either save often or be ready to use your lance for defense.

[@renkim2296]

Thank Lowko for being there for me when im sick.👍

[@nhagan001]

It's hard to put rohana in her place.... When she can't move.

[@TheQiuetOne]

Alarak is a sith lord!

[@StarboyXL9]

Indeed. Alarak is just a better Darth Malak. Better dressed, quicker witted, probably stronger too.

[@FrogEnjoyer17]

Are you threatening me, master high templar?

[@MalevolentSpirit234]

"He's too dangerous to be left alive!"

[@Robert-vk7je]

Rohanas point of view isn't without sense. Looking backwards in history teaches too much hatred. Do you remember the cutscene with Jim and Tosh after breaking into New Folsom? Now imagine them unite with Mensk to fight Amon. Unimaginable.

[@mr.lithifcation7815]

Oh Alarak, such an amazing voice played by Jon DeLancie, the same voice as Discord from MLP and Q from Star Trek, and in HotS, his Q ability is Discord strike...

[@Baleur]

20:27 holy shit look at the shadow, its a huuuuge mommaship

[@ofekbr]

another tiny wonderful thing - every time you choose a world to travel and artanis gives a speech about what happened so far and what we will find in there, his speech changes depends on where you come from

[@pidromepunch2760]

For lore nerds him doing the shadow walk was soo amazing.

[@eliezercalbay]

Loved your vids !! I have watched your vids a long time ago too 👌 especially zerg vids

[@ludeksmola94]

miss the 4k uploads :) great content though, love the campaign playthrough!

[@kasraashtari6788]

Love your campaign content :X

[@AnPham-zx6mg]

A Legacy of The Void video On my birthday? Thank you Lowko

[@HaploidCell]

I think I got distracted during this scenario and all my forces just got melted by the displacement beam. ;')

[@brunoaraujo4105]

This is great. I am always waiting for the next chapter. This should be a regular series from SciFi Channel

[@ladislavdobrovsky8826]

Classic Lowko. Takes him to play LotV two times to see something, like the fact Artanis is totally badass

[@erickchristensen746]

Alarak is voiced by the same guy who plays Q in Star Trek, as well as Discord in My Little Pony. Other things as well but those are the more famous ones

[@Alaskan_kodiak]

I live for the line "brutal has been selected"

[@somerandomdude7785]

Hey, i realized that Alarak is voiced by the guy who voiced Q.

[@WhiteFangofWar]

John De Lancie has gone Sith Lord. Fortunately, Artanis is here to act as his 'Picard'.

[@Astroga159]

Fun fact: you can reach the pylon powering those force gates with Solar lance, if you know where to aim them, and rekt their bases from their most vulnerable side that doesn't have many photon canons

[@Anomen77]

You can use the solar Lance to open those gates from the outside. It has enough range to destroy the pylon without having it in vision.

[@SZRLM]

Cool part of this mission is seeing the shadow of the mothership shooting the disruptor beam

[@TrueCarthaginian]

It was actually Artanis' idea to lure more zerg in before blowing the planet up. Vorbae just wanted to blow it asap and bounce.

[@TheWandererGhost]

Look at those amon's servents dancing!

[@SoraTerumi24]

Artanis! I’ve come to bargain!

[@amon7131]

My boi Alarak, best of the best amirite?

[@salimgamer7763]

lowko : i probably have to move down there me : thats what she said

[@blblosti]

:D 13:10 you saied exuse me in the same time I burped :D Grat timing Lowko from the past.

[@kanate1444]

6:35 DID SOMONE SAY *HERESY?!??*

[@satchboogie2058]

Get all the Solarite! Hoot Hoot!

[@uekocz7229]

Now we need dark templar skin on artanis! :O with scarf a everything xD

[@panex9356]

Is nobody going to talk about how they mentioned the Aeon of Strife, the original MOBA map, made in SC1

[@radihadzhiev6630]

@LowkoTV 3 words: Havoc, dragoon, immortal

[@Ben-br1bu]

Is the red protoss in 10:33 really dancing or am I seeing things...? 😮 ... 😂😂😂

[@ItsukaP4]

I thougth the title of this chapter was gonna be: "It's your boi Alarak!!" Or "the boi Alarak appears"

[@garrettreven5144]

24:26 Let's finger out what they're up to 😂

[@markushomanen2295]

Slowly but surely 💪

[@user-nb1fg3gk1w]

FENIX!!!

[@warrioroflight6872]

I think Lowko should go 'War of the Worlds' style and use only colossi when he fights terrans again.

[@mechadoggy]

2:33 Ok, Rohana needs a manicure

[@jamesgregorio2348]

Imagine if protoss allows you to change faction between Tamplar,Nerazim and Tal'darim.

[@StarboyXL9]

Saw a pro player playing with a Tal'darim skin once. On Lowko's channel actually.

[@JoshSweetvale]

And Purifiers

[@natepark6175]

lowko makes brutal look like casual lol

[@dis_iz_tud]

Was the high tal'darim templar dancing the Boba Fett dance from that Star Wars dancing group thingy?

[@petararmanda8342]

Here comes my favourite lotv character, the HIGHLORD ALARAK, or technically still FIRST ASCENDANT.

[@okamiman73]

Let's go BABY Lowko's the BEST. Also, how does Artanis' chin cap stay on? Answer me that one.

[@mordador2702]

Psi POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERS!

[@maximusm-g7571]

same way ur gloves stay on.

[@krebsfish5035]

R.I.P Alderaan, I mean Shakuras

[@jasonsayangod3560]

Lowko: lets try full nerazim again Me: :D

[@warrioroflight6872]

They're not called scarves, Lowko, they're called face veils.

[@ZoroastrianMK]

Yo should see the mision that you're going to do, and THEN choose the troops and the solarite.

[@Salchipapafied]

Alarak keeps reminding me of Dr. Evil for some reason. I always expect him to put the back of his pinky up to his lip every time he says a line of dialogue.

[@gsimoesmp]

Men, You are the best!!

[@valaquenta7]

In my experience the Solar lance is the best tier 2 ability just for the stupid amount of burst damage it deals. Temporal Field is decent but you get a superior version in tier 6. So Solar Lance all the way.

[@nayrosnoflaalfonso1050]

Chiara there isnt really any unit that can survive 2 lazers, only modded units can survive 3 lazers

[@VVieslaw]

@LowkoTV It mus be Talandar! :D

[@MaGiCMushroomClouds]

Alarak is cool but my all time favorite character is Infested Kerrigan from Brood War, the self proclaimed "Queen Bitch of the Universe." Least favorite has to be Judicator Aldaris.

[@gimlidwarf999]

One Campaign vid every day

[@geneticallydifferent3152]

Dark Templar can cloak their noses.

[@joemalola05]

Beam me down, scotty!

[@derionanderun946]

@LowkoTV You need a Scarf to cover your Orifis xD

[@justinthompson6364]

*Orifice

[@robinedbom7649]

i use chrono surge to upgrade REALLY fast and then building units from robtics or stargate :)

[@jasonyang6150]

robin edbom but then I use warp harmonization for the carriers and immortals

[@robinedbom7649]

well yeah later in the campain i do aswell but before you have the stargate chrono surging out annihilators is really strong :)

[@snowflake1135]

I wondered when Alarak would come

[@Ep0pteia]

Talandar for the f*cking win!

[@monkeydluffy3922]

Lowko don't spoil us stuff with video titles :P

[@stephano686]

10:25 Yes baby

[@aluppo2153]

Rohana our Best oldest rasit gradma preserver

[@RekijanME]

Silly lowko thinking we dont know who karax is talking about. Not all of us skip cut scenes :P

[@spaceage6404]

Lowko have you watch starcraft 2 legacy of the void reclamation? it is cool!

[@crox-309]

Protoss really is mysterious I might study they might have orifices hidden

[@FianFainFiatFaitArkangelCalel]

Hi Simon, click on Artanis, even if he has nothing to say he will sure have a phrase or more as in Wols and Hots!

[@casualcrusader1547]

you mean chadlord alarak?

[@StarboyXL9]

the Supreme Virgin Artanis vs. the Ultimate Chad Alarak

[@JolleonA]

Alarak \o/

[@cycyclimbs]

Hi Lowko PogChamp

[@Zimbeltor]

Klick on the pylon in the Bridge

[@davew472]

Of cause it hits air...it a big “feck off “ laser fired from orbit

[@Railgunonline]

I have been wondering why Artanis choose to deploy ground forces instead of engaging the taldarim mothership firing that beam

[@smurfcho]

Karax is solarite otaku... He really is crazy for solarite

[@Keks123]

WUH YEAH

[@martianunlimited]

Maybe the Nerazims have orifices as well, that's why they wear face scarves to cover their orifices...

[@nopebutwhy4027]

You going to try mass war prism in coop?

[@meeqsb3521]

Solar Lance is one of the best abilities in the game. So broken.

[@sleepisgood2936]

Btw what's with the hostile dancing thing about

[@Roar87]

Artanis a badass? He killed zeratul!!! He killed ZERATUL! (crying inside). He didn't listen to him.... and now Zeratul is dead.

[@josephbevan1036]

I bet the prototype warrior is Bastion.
