I like that it represents the spirit of the zealot. You can feel THE WRATH OF THE PROTOSS!!!!!!!!!!!
Altough it looks abit evil, which doesnt need to be, protoss arent evil. Its getting boring for every new game the character is having evil looks. Toss are rightful, spiritual beings, like evolved space variant of the night elves
Luv ya BroodWar!

I never liked the original Protoss victory screen. I don't think this one is much better though. Very shiny/plasticy look and super bright blue lights with lens flares everywhere. I think it is a wash.

I like the old one better. This one has the sc2 style all over it, which is more cartoonish- small body, bigger head and shiny colors. I like the dark theme of sc1 much more

Plazma shield does not allow Toss to get dirty. Thats why they are all pimp players.
You have valid points, altought old zealot screen doesnt looks like coming out of a battle or anything.

Blizzard should really stop trying to emulate Hollywood movie posters with the lens flares and sparks on all the new art. Also why is one psi blade on and the other is off? Either have them both on or them both off.

The reason why I think it looks so much like SC2 is because of the triangular shape of the face. Blizzard really went with the triangular shapes on SC2 Protoss designs when in general Protoss was a lot rounder and smoother in BW.

I would be okay with it - IF the new zealot had a huge penis just like the old one!

It looks cool. I HATED how small and awful the original's stomach was. It seems like they took way more artistic liberties in this one compared to the hydralisk one. I like the sleeker wristbands, the BW's one were freaking ginormous.

I'm looking forward to see what they do with Artanis' design if anything. He looks so weird in BW with his nerve cords cut for no reason.

Apart from being a bit too much SC2-ized, it actually looks like a silly poser now...

Oh, and yeah, exaggerated starburst effect (I don't think "lens flare" is actually the correct term for what they use here) is another of those too much show-off, too little substance things...

I am all for reviving the old more scaly/wrinkly Protoss head design, even though that was basically gone with Artanis in BroodWar already... Just looks a lot more interesting.

the remastered lighting is a bit too shiny/cartoony, but i think i prefer the new zealot model - the old one's pretty ridiculously proportioned for what's supposed to be a tough warrior guy

Yeah, because a tough warrior guy from a bizarre alien race must necessarily resemble the typical cliché of a brawny human...

doesn't have to be human proportioned at all, but it should probably at least be big enough to contain some decent amount of muscle. the original zealot image has massive bulky armor on top of a tiny, stick-thin body and arms.

They should also make specific victory/defeat screen based on matchups.

Looks good I think. If I were to nitpick I'd say I dont like the closed fist but that's very minor. A little shiny maybe.

anyone who thinks the old one is better is delusional

if they updated it to look the same, it'd be a nice high quality zealot looking 'deer in the headlights' at the camera, with a dumb look on his face, and NO PSI BLADES OUT

gimme a break
