Late to this party, but the cinematic was par excellence as expected of Blizzard. The Zealot vs Banelings, and the High Templar bonding, instilled just the right sort of "one for all" emotion that the Protoss, by virtue of the Khala, are thematically all about. This is probably my favorite of the three intro cinematics, and that's saying something considering the first one gives us Tychus and the second gives us Siege Tanks going into Siege Mode.

At the same time, I'm flabbergasted by how completely they fucked up the Archon's visual design. POWER OVERWHELMING isn't just a catch phrase. Archons are supposed to be unstable and (self-)destructive, not beautiful iTanks.

With that fancy, supremely elegant armor, the Archon doesn't look like it should be shouting POWER OVERWHELMING at all, it looks like it should be shouting POWER VERY CAREFULLY CALIBRATED TO THESE EXACT IMPRESSIVE SPECIFICATIONS.

Thats ok cinematic, tho its not on the level it should be for the biggest rts franchise. Again the designers never fail to dissapoint. Archon looks like shit, these guys didnt learn that two templars would form anything but a ball of strong chaotic energy, not a shitty shiny armour, which is so illogical. Just learn from broodwar they did it right, with design and with the story. Will be interested to see if they bring campagn in this one to a level above average, because so far they cant reach the epicnes of sc1 original campagn.
Luv ya BroodWar!

Nice cinematic, i hope we'll see soon a nice game too
The cinematic doesnt tell much about storyline. The archon is a disgrace to aiur but as usual CGI is more than impressive.

Like I said, I dont like trailers where we see a fight. WoL is different, we see "a preparation" for the incoming fight which I like.

I heard DK wanted to change the ingame archon sound to this, for the very reason you mentioned.

Maybe the Archon had a chat with Garrus.

The cinematic is great, thou I gotta say I liked HOTS much more:
Hype apart, we only got to see few units fighting. Also, what exactly happened to the archon? It seems like it imploded and took the ultra with it?

Id like it more if the archon would not fight in melle range, as the way I see an archon is to create psionic waves rather than electricity based melle atacks.
I did like A LOT how the warp in pylon looked. Thats EXACTLY how it is supposed to look, like a black hole warping in, not the sc2 weird mine craft blocks coming together :D.

EDIT: Also, I thought that now, since Kerrigan is no longer EVIL (Ill laught my ass of if she is trolling everyone AGAIN), why are the zerg fighting the protoss?


All of the Zerg that are under Kerrigan's command are with her searching for Amon so if Kerrigan commanded the Zerg on Auir there wouldn't be any Zerg on Auir.
