Your Samir Duran Theories here

It's only minor though, really.

I like my idea the more I think about it. But I just thought, if Samir Duran was Khas, why would he call Zeratul "young prodigal." Wouldn't he refer to him as a rebel or something, seeing as Zeratul was one of the ones that didn't conform to the Khala?

 

Duran is a Xel'Naga disguisted as a human. He called Zeratul a prodigal because his race engineered the Protoss. He joint the UED to set up a situation where the UED is winning. Then turn to Kerrigan and see how would this Terran-Zerg hybrid react and handle the situation. It's all part of their research.

 

I dont think the hybrids will be created for revenge, that is beyond my doubt. Xel'naga seem too sophisticated to worry about silly things like revenge, they seem more like the cold and calculative type... more then willing to cause the death of billions to purify life with stronger aspects.

As for Duran and the xel'naga theory, I think theres something more to him then we all know. Blizzard is notorious for bringing out something that was originally behind closed curtains into their sequels that obviously wasnt planned out that way in the beginning.

 

i dont like hybrids. i hope the 4th race would xelnagas not hybrids. maybe ewoks! heheh

 

to bad there is no 4th race and i really doubt the xel'naga will even waste their time with the three races. they might but not yet

 

Duran is what I'm hinging my hopes on for SC2
He seems to me like the big bad boss type.

 

they justy said that there would only be three playable races, burning legion, anyone?

 

that would be hilarious

 

He did mention the rebellious side of Zeratul, as prodigal means someone who "behaved badly or improper" but went away (exile) for a time to return a better person. I think that fits Zeratul, as well as any of his DT people pretty well.

 

you got an ava now nice choice with tassadar

well anyways i doubt it's khas but it's possible

 

Hehe Tass owns.

well yeah Khas is a nice theory but for now no one can't know for sure, duran is hellishly cryptic during the bonus mission :S i remember replaying it several times just to make sure i didn't miss anything

 

i just got done playing the secret lvl and during the conversation with Zeratul and Duran...

Duran says that he has had many names over the millennium, that he dose not serve kerrigan but a much greater power of the ages long past, and that the hybrid is the culmination of your (Zeratul) history.

so sounds like the xel'naga to me

 

I hope it isn't xel naga i just think it's to early to have them enter well no matter what i'm sure i will be satisfied

 

Burning Legion, no doubt about it.

 

Stukov is far cooler than Duran owerup:

And since im more of a multiplayer i dont have any real theories (better not make a fool out of myself) all i know is that he got possesed and experimented on hybrids.

 

Burning Legion would suck. It would be like dwarves and elves in Call of Duty. So i believe you are kiddin' with this

 

I think SirBaron was comparing the burning legion to the xel naga in the way they could enter the storyline of starcraft 2.

 

Hahaha yeah, i just couldn't help but crack that one since blizzard is known to use the same concept of one franchise in another (good character falls to evil and becomes corrupted for example - arthas and kerrigan)

 

but stukov dosnt have his on thread thank you very much sir

 

"Duran? You son of a b***ch. Whats the meaning of this?" ;D
