Your Samir Duran Theories here

The first time i played BW i liked duran. But after he shot stukov i was like MOTHER F* :-X :bad:

 

Duran is a servant of the Xel'Naga. He deceived everyone and setup a situation where Kerrigan would win against all other factions. Then he needed to study closely the effects of a Terran/Zerg hybrid. So he can master the mechanisms of a Protoss/Zerg hybrid.

 

Duran will probably show up as the leader of some unstoppable hybrid army and kerrigan/raynor/zeratul will join forces to destroy him and kerrigan will get killed in the process and everyone lives happily ever after

 

except for jim

 

dont foget, he will have a terran army as well, like in WC 3, where you fought burning legion and the scourge

 

i cant believe i havent noticed this thread this whole time O_O
yay for hybrid creeps
someone like duran cant be defeated. someone that intelligent and supernatural is....uncounterable
and rest assured that whoever he's following obviously would be the most dominant species the that moment, and joins forces with everyone else to keep track, and probably to collect test subjects too lol.
what's a bit of an odd behaviour is why he would personally explain to zeratul a portion of his scheme? a rather naive action to take for such a superior intellectual

 

He is his own worst enemy.

 

Maybe he knows Zeratul cannot stop him. Nothing like a good goading sometimes i suppose.

 

lol did like tassadar teach him that lesson as well?
and that would only happen when he chooses
and feelings and instincts are unnecessary
i mean of course blizzard needs a method of getting the other idea out but his remark seriously contradicted his personality

EDIT: err OK!

 

Underestimate your enemy/overestimate yourself - you are your own enemy. Kerrigan was naive to think Tassadar would show up in person - Fenix was naive to think that he could just brush off Kerrigan's betrayal when it finally came.

 

Duran is a great evil person (better than the rest of them (Mengsk, Kerrigan, etc...) because he is devious. He'll definitely return in SC2 and probably have those hybrids he talked about.
But, I don't like him cause he killed Stukov and Stukov is cooler than Duran.

 

Stukov > all. I'm still waiting for the ressurection of Stukov Blizzard....you just can't kill such an awesome character :good:

Blizzard has a thing for making pilots Russian...Stukov, Cruiser commander, and Valkyrie pilots all happen to be Russian...don't matter to me though, I always imagined earth's greatest general or pilot to have a Russian accent

 

valks are German.
cruiser is Mexican
stukov is Argentinian.

 

Stukov is definitely Russian...just the name, Alexei Stukov, gives it away. Also, in the cinematic that starts out Brood War, Dugalle tells him that his vodka can wait. I know every race drinks vodka, but as we all know its associated largely with Russia ^_^

 

I mean his voice is by a guy from Argentina. A guy with a very distinguished voice.
Anyways, the greatest pilots are the Wraiths and they are American.

 

Really? Huh...this adds a whole new perspective to everything =P Neh, I still like the idea of all our pilots being either Russian or reminding me of Top Gun

 

When I played SC BrooWar the last time,,, I remembered that :

*Protoss and Zerg where created by Xel´Naga,,
*Protoss and Zerg are different faces of Xel´Naga nature,,,
*The secret mission is about a Protoss/Zerg hybrid
*Duran claims to serve an ancient power...
*Duran was never really an "infested Duran"... Kerrigan never ha control over him
*The Xel´Naga race wasn´t really exterminated

So, based on those facts, I really think that Duran is somekind of servant of Xel´Naga survivors, that´s why he knows all about zerg and protoss ( he refers to zeratul as young??? ). One question is still in the air... Duran´s initial human ( or terran ) form... Well, I think it´s because he just can´t say, Hey, I´m a Xel´Naga agent, my name is Duran,, how are you doin´after all this years???...

I dont´t know if he is coming back for SC2 but I´m sure that the secret mission on SC1 is somehow tellin´ us some of the argument for the new game

For Auir

AlucardX

 

Yeah thats the most likely thing.

I'm sure he's coming back. They wouldn't just have him show up in the expansion and then have him disappear and not come back in the sequel.

 

I can say with almost 100% accuracy that Samir Duran will be making a comeback in Starcraft 2. After that great speech in 'Dark Origin', how can he not come back? Seriously, if I don't start seeing Protoss/Zerg hybrids at least in the storyline of SC2, that means that there's going to have to be a SC3.

On second thought, yay. Forget hybrids, let Blizzard be forced to make another sequel! ^^

 

But if they don't have hybrids and Duran in SC2 then the story will feel stagnant. I want the SC2 story to take some very interesting twists in terms involving duran, xel'naga, and hybrids.
