    If it takes SC2 and an expansion pack before we find out who he really is than Blizzard will be as bad as Lost when they don't tell you anything for weeks :D

    And the father of Eric Cartman... oops, I mean... The identity of Samir Duran... ... ... ... ...will not be revealed to you today so that we can bring you this special April Fools joke. Knock, knock!

    By the way, is Samir of Indian origin? His name appears to be Indian (from India, that is).

    I always figured "Samir" to be Arabian (If that's "politically correct")

    from my limited knowledge, the word Samir or "entertaining companion" (in Arabic) or "gust of wind/a cool gentle breeze on a hot summer day" (in Sanskrit) are usually given to Hindu and Muslim males.

    My theory is: Duran is a human spy of Xel'Naga to spy and research both the weaknesses of the betrayal race, Zerg and Protoss, and developing a new "perfect race" to destroy them. :)

    Bla, bla bla, and the Terrans have just proved to be a thorn in the side of the Xel'Naga and must be the first to be eliminated. Anyway, unless the Xel somehow come up with a super-weapon or something from Duran's knowledge, they have NO CHANCE of defeating the Zerg or the Terran + Protoss alliance through a normal invasion.

    Hmm, I was to lazy to read all the comments, but note this:

    Xel'naga were considered to be the shepards of the galaxy.
    Duran insinuates that the Hybrids will destroy everything, because he gives me the impression hes kind of evil :p.

    I don't think he's Xel.

    I would be, but I wouldn't destroy the whole world.

    The Xel couldn't really be strong enough to destroy the sector anyway. The Zerg beat 90% of 'em once. A more evolved and recent Zerg could definitely beat the survivors to a pulp if they attack.

    Nice theories in this topic :)

    But I guess that the xel were a little flabbergasted from the zerg attack (arrogance?) Maybe they now used theyre energie and advanced equipment to develop weapons?
    And also, indirectly they CAN! Because the zerg are doing that already, and they would never have become this dangerous without the help of the xel'naga. Maybe the xel are doing the same with hybrids. But still I don't think so, looking at my old theory.

    Yes, weapons could work, but they'd only wore so much against the Zerg's overwhelming numbers. The only sure-fire way to stop the Zerg from slaughtering you is the Psi Disruptor.

    There could have been a bit of arrogance, but then again maybe they're just scientists that got pwned. I mean I always had an idea in my head that they were like the Protoss but not warriors.

    We will see. Think about it! No one of us (except blizzard) has a clue of the weapons xel'naga could have developed int he millenia that have passed. Would critter stand a chance against inter dimensional bla bla they maybe have? (I don't really know what I'm talking about with the inter dimensional blabla, but it sounds really mighty.)
    Bottom line (and this time seriously): Time will tell.

    Yeah, but its also the scientists (this time terran and protoss) who developed motherships, collusi, psi disruptors, battle cruisers and such. And the warriors of the xel could be robotic. Think protoss reavers or interceptors!

    Hmm, never really thought of it like that. I don't know why I had that idea in my head, but I guess I always thought of the Xel as pacifists in a way, whose creation got outta control - Frankenstein?

    It is nothing said about Xel's allignment (did i wrote this correct? :)) anyway remember that they were "betrayed" by its children- Zerg and Protoss. Even if they were pacifistic in early stage, they might be not after those...accidents.

    sory 4 poor english

    Yes, you did write it correctly :D

    The Zerg and Protoss weren't really children, but more like pets. The Overmind just wanted to be free of the Xel's grip, and the Protoss just went like Lord Of The Flies, and this was before their enlightenment with Adun and the Khala.

    And I guess your abselutely correct my friends, the only thing that time will tell is that the xel kept there cool, or didn't ....
