Earlier today I made the following connection: Only TWO units in StarCraft are African American, the insignificant SCV who constantly picks his nose, and a VILLIAN, a VILLIAN for Christ's sake! It's time to discuss, what do you think?

The scv is african american, he just looked kind of tan to me...

Duran was a villian in the terran and protoss campaigns, for terran he betrayed them and got stukov killed and in protoss he was infested and made a protoss/zerg hybrid.

Blizzard is more.. truthful then Racist.

Wow I showed Yoshi a pic of SCV and he still think he's white. I suggested maybe he's just a light skinned black guy. Even though he's CLEARLY black...

Though he does have this dorky white guy voice. Wierd.

THERES NO SUCH THING AS LIGHT SKINNED BLACK GUY. Its then "brown" and he doesn't talk south asian.

[attachmentid=1950] <--- Orginal pic. Hes bloody white.


[attachmentid=1951] <--- My photoshop skills showing him black.


You americans don't have enough colors in your country. Its all black or white for you guys.

Uh, you mean white Anglo-Saxon protestants. Martin van Buren was Dutch, and Kennedy was an Irish Catholic (of course).

Yoshi da Sniper is right; Samir Duran's the only non-Caucasian person in Starcraft.

When you think about it, Blizzard is a bit sexist as well. I mean, there are only a few women in Starcraft. In addition, all of them are white, which ties it to the "Blizzard is racist" argument.

There's no way the SCV can be black. His voice is too much like a southern hick. I think people think he's black because his chin hair is black.

So until I get a blizzard official statement declaring he's black, he's still white in my eyes.

Okay, if he looks black, do the following.

1. Look at your screen. Now, below it look for some sort of panel with many buttons.
2. Look for the one with the circle and the sun. These are your brightness controls. Turn these up.
3. Now look again. Does he appear white?

IF NOT...
- Call your local lenscrafters and have them make some big strong glasses for you. Its 125 bucks off now!
- Call your doctor and tell him that you're eyes have darkened.
- Take a sharp stick and poke at your computer parts.

You know what, CheeZe(U)? I think YOU are the colourblind one, not Yoshi. The SCV is white! There isn't a black guy that sounds like that, OK?!

THERE ARE NO ASIANS IN STARCRAFT!!! ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif

Ok, ignore my previous post. The SCV is clearly black now. Mainly because of these reasons:

1. Look at how much they stressed the nose and lips. Typical stereotype for blacks is they have big noses and lips.

2. His mustache and chin hair is solid black. Also the sideburns resembles a black person.

The only objection I have is his censored.gif ty ass white hick voice. Although this is the future and he could be from Alabama or something.

Edit: Therefore, Blizzard.Racist = True;

Edit²: Isn't it funny how the only black man on the terran is the one doing all the building and labor. It's sad.

Didn't bother reading much, but...
"..no he's black, those things that make him look "white" are those lights"
No, he's white, those things that make him look "black" are those shadows. tongue.gif j/k

"was infested and made a protoss/zerg hybrid."
Without Kerrigan's permission or knowledge, I might add, and since he's one of her higher ranking people, I'd say it's pretty damn likely she knows everything he does, and when...
unless... *gasp* he's only pretending to be infested, because he's immune to it or something!
Notice how the Zerg merely scared the Xel'NAga off(and destroyed most of their fleet), but did not absorb them?
The technological censored.gif the Xel'naga had could have made the Zerg perfect both in Form(Protoss) and whatever it was the Zerg was, thus makingthem the perfect race.
But, they chased after the Protoss trying to infest them.
So probably, they can't infest Xel'naga, and the Xel'naga, having made the Zerg, know how to make it seem as though they're infested, and Duran is a rogue or something trying to finish the experiment and ccreating perfection.
