EPTIt also looks like the "hybrid" in the tank isn't...all put together...
Fingers crossed for an epic cinematic with Duran and/or a hybrid at the end of the Zeratul WoL mini-campaign.
Is this the Xel Naga? - Page 3

Sure, WOL is likely to bring "new" developments in the story. However, in all 100% likelihood all 3 Starcraft2s will be over and we will still not have very good answers to the story. Even if we get all the questions we have now satisfied, I imagine more new questions will be asked than answers given. Let's just hope it isn't another Warcraft where everyone is working for someone else regardless of how powerful they are so in the end no answers are ever solved because every time you defeat one boss, you learn there's an even more powerful boss. | ||

Zeratul has just came back telling Raynor he'll have Kerrigan's life on his hands but if she dies, whatever is coming wtfpwns the sector, an alliance of conveniences is not impossible, Kerrigan is not blind just bad to the bone. We don't have any information at all about what Artanis has been doing, though. | ||

Do you have a source to verify what you said? http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Xel'naga "The xel'naga were incredibly long-lived by protoss standards, but not immortal; eventually their species would come to an end. In the interest of survival they planned to create new xel'naga by uplifting two species. A pair of qualities was required and these were defined by the xel'naga as the purity of essence and the purity of form, and each uplifted species would be targeted for one of them. Over an extraordinary long period of time, the two species would naturally come together and merge." Which explains why the Hybrid is NOT a Xel'naga. It's just not a natural merging over extraordinary periods of time. | ||

It's just not a natural merging over extraordinary periods of time. Given that the Xel'Naga PLANNED for the merging to occur over an "extraordinarily long period of time", maybe this implies that Samir Duran's actions are the work of yet ANOTHER ALIEN SPECIES. If the Xel"Naga planned for a natural merging, his experiments may be the work of a different species (or perhaps just a rival Xel'Naga faction, although I highly doubt this). Or maybe Blizzard got a bit overextended in terms of lore and had to create a few contentious storylines to maintain logical flow. | ||

Cyclically, this level will eventually be reached repeatedly over the eons of evolution by different species. The Xel'naga we know of sought to "preserve their xel'naganess" (or maybe guarantee the continuation of xel'naga) by creating the protoss and the zerg. Xel'naga purity of essence and form are surely going to be explained in greater detail, and the merging of zerg and protoss in this regard will be where Blizzard really gets to tie everything together. The whole story of starcraft will have a most epic of conclusions. As I hope it happens (but don't expect), humanity will play a role in this reemergence of the xel'naga. WE humans are stunningly complex. While the Universe holds about 10^80 particles, the human brain holds the possibility of 10^70000000000 brain states (dont explode ur brain, im comparing a sum to a complex combination). Not to sound like a nut, but to smoke DMT, eat shrooms, ayahuasca or peyote, is to explore the vast dimensions of the universe that a sober mind could hardly fathom. The human brain has such incredibly potential that is locked up. Xel'Naga in starcraft is an enigma that we hope to encounter more fully in the release of sc2. Metaphorically, I have been searching for them all my life. @_@ I'm pretty sure thats just called tripping balls and usually actually only involves staring into nothing for extended periods of time, lol | ||
