In Zerg, there is no death, for we move as One.

To be a part of something greater has always been the Protoss way. What could be greater the topping the evolutionary pinnacle in one perfect entity?

The Maestro has failed.

The Noble Protoss warrior Bisu seemed poised to deliver hope to the downtrodden Tribes, but the Overmind has created Jaedong - the Perfect Zerg.

It is through Savior's failure that Jaedong can rise, and in Jaedong's rise can Savior find redemption . . . and peace.

One you say? Tell me, where is that "One" when zerglings are dying around you? Or as zealots tear through your ultralisks? Or maybe as a fleet of corsairs devours your overlords?Is that not death? Please do tell.

But is perfection itself not fleeting?
Has the world not witnessed the supernatural mastery of the Zerg Swarm possessed by the one and only Ma Jae Yoon?
Did the world not tremble at His mighty feet as he crushed the Terran messiah, Lee Yun Yeol, and the Hero of Aiur, Park Jung Suk?
Did the Maestro himself not reverse Longinus II, the spear that pierced the side of God himself, and plunge it into the heart of his foes?
Was Reverse Temple not conquered by the unsatiable bloodlust innate in every Zergling that is hatched by His will?
Such perfection, such sheer domination, will never again be witnessed, as there are none capable of taking the place of the true Maestro of Zerg;

Ma Jae Yoon.

I always pictured the Zerg like the Buggers from the Ender's Game series. The Overmind gives instantaneous instructions which are carried out with precision and with everyone acting as one. The Overmind would essentially be a player that would be able to have the best control micro while maintaining perfect macro because all commands are instantaneous mind to mind communication. this is something 1 Terran commander just cannot due because he does not have the mental capacity to give out commands like that, he has to radio everyone and that is why they are too slow and fall to the Swarm. The Protoss are better and much more disciplined, but they lack that unity, that ability to give out commands to all warriors at once that allows for the Swarm to come out on top.

It's not about superiority, it's about the ingenuity and hope of humans. The resourcefulness and adaptability, and creativity which will win out in the end. Humans have music, tv, films and video games. Zerg have larval sacs. Protoss probably haven't even invented the master system yet. Pong would probably make them wet.

Sure one terran commander will probably lose in a straight slog with the zerg, but he will use tactical nukes to blow your main hive to hell, send covert agents to kill your main telepathic bugs, and then send a bunch of stalwart marines and medics + plenty of firebats right into the vulnerable heart of the zerg where there are like 100 hatcheries but only 1 sunken and then > your production and then swarms of humans born unto proper families, all thinking for themselves but with the unity of spirit and hope that brings all us together to defeat the zerg menace; at which point we shall all rejoice and continue to reap the benefits of culture and diversity while the hive mind bewails its lame-assness.
