EPTKerrigan had a pretty good reason to approach the Protoss, but didn't really do a lot to earn their trust and the protoss didn't really gain much from her tagging along. And later on it's Duran who comes up with a plan to make it much easier to capture Razagal and to defeat Fenix and Duke. Pretty sure that Duran was the brains of the partnership.
What do you think of Sarah Kerrigan?

Well i didn't see a specific SP forum for BW, and the first few pages of topic titles look as though there is very little care for the campaign. So I figure I'd put it here since this seems to be the place where people talk about the story and characters and stuff. | ||

Oh, wait... IMO she's been watered down for WoL. Like you said, cunning isn't really her thing (brash overconfidence does that). Her biggest selling point, the "Queen Bitch of the Universe" vibe just isn't there anymore. | ||

The point of BW campaign is that Raynor / protosses / Mengsk HAD to ally with Kerrigan in order to demolish the UED, as much as she needed them to get control back on the swarms. She couldn't really be Duran like since they already knew her past and that she was infected. | ||

Kerrigan knows the hybrids are a threat, and the Relics are a weapon she would rather have in her hand than hybrid hands. The Overmind would've told her information like this before it died, and Kerrigan's mind-reading abilities picked up the prophecies from Zeratul when she fought him, meaning Kerrigan KNOWS she's threatened by hybrids, and that she important in making the Zerg resist hybrid control. What does this mean? It means the Terrans from WoL and the Zerg from WoL are on the same side, and that every action you took against them was friendly fire. However, the Terrans and the Zerg aren't going to trust each-other any time in the next century, so even if both groups want to fight the hybrids, the sentiment is "You. Give me all your anti-hybrid stuff right now before you use it wrong and kill us all." "No U." "Waagh!" Edit: I just realised this doesn't explain wtf Kerrigan was doing attacking the New Agria colonists (Dr. Hanson questline). What was Kerrigan doing there? Kerrigan pretty much followed Ariel Hanson across the sector. What Tosh said about Hanson being a zergmagnet is true, but I don't understand why or how that should be. | ||

Anyway, I maintain my opinion that Kerrigan lacks Durans grasp of subtlty and cunning. | ||

Whoa. I never noticed her saying that, or I never realized what it meant. I kind of hate the WoL Kerrigan. In BW she was a total punk, full of sarcasm and arrogance. The WoL Kerrigan seemed.. empty. Like nobody gave her much thought when giving her lines. All that hostile personality.. completely gone. | ||

"I'm gonna pwn you noobs, and by the way alexi was twice the man you are". lol. You don't support Kerrigan's character in WoL at all. In all of these ridiculous threads you make you just mindlessly bash BW without actually defending the WoL writing. Just in case you didn't know, that doesn't actually work at justifying the atrocious script and just overall writing that WoL had. | ||
