Co-op was NEVER supposed to be canon, why be pissed to have no-canon commander?
to be honest, Nova was the first no-canon commander, since she have technlogy that came from the future, but nobody say something about it

Just gotta throw it out there. Just got done replaying the zerg campaign. Iâm interested to see Kerriganâs lines with him. You know⌠since she literally only cared about killing mengsk.

Co-op commanders donât reference the map or each other. Theyâre not bringing back the voice actors just for a new map or character. They only do voice line updates if they have a better excuse to bring in the VA like when Tycusâs VA came back for co-op, they patched up his HOTS voice lines.
I honestly rather have Valarian

Because it doesnât make sense to be mad at coop having non-canon commanders. Much like it doesnât make sense to be mad at noobs.
Both of these are like being mad at a baby for not being able to walk yet or being mad at the elderly for being alive.
Instead of appreciating what we are getting (however little it may be), I am sure spasming a tantrum on the forum will definitely bring more interests.

They recorded an entierly new set of voicelines for Jiânara when Alarak was added to coop, to make the map make sense when playing as him
When did that mission release? They already had to bring in DeâLancie and Jiânaraâs voice actorâs in for Cover Ops so it could be a âwell theyâre hereâ update.

Why canât we have someone like Tosh or Valerian instead ?
Blizz should replace Mengsk as a coop cmd character for Valerian, the army concept still hold but maybe with some small tweaks in order to fit Valerian better.
Also, we already have a dead Terran cmd, so why not save the âwhat ifâ scenario for a Zerg cmd ??
Iâm guessing that the Overmind will be a Commander at some point. Overmind, Izsha, Niadra, and Zurvan are pretty much the last Zerg characters left to become Commanders.
and only 2 of them have data so far(overmind, izsha).
Yes, as a matter of fact.
Flamethrowers have a range thatâs greater than 1, so thatâs already a good start! (It looks like 4 to 5 range in fact!)

Gameplay wise this is one of the commanders Iâm more sceptical about.

I appreciate that they work hard to give us new features. But why Arcturus? Just think of it, all other 15 commanders are the enemy of him.
In addition, has anybody wanted him as commander? I donât recall reading that. A lot of posts are readable throughout the forums that people want Tosh or Selendis so much and they are indeed within the team to fight against Amon.

Mengsk TC will be red? that will not make a bit of confusion with Amonâs forces in the mini-map? I thinked they would use dark red or a different red for him.
I really dont like Arcturus as co op character, but hell, whatever. If he will be well designed as co op commander, Im fine with him.
Deploy bunker topbar ability looks good. Interesting and dynamic concept. He looks like macro heavy commander (good). with plenty options in early game to defend first atack waves and push into first objectives, while making fast and strong economy.
I see some HH, Nova and even Zeratul mechanics used here - elite + disposable units, dogs of war (like zeratul legions). Lots of different mechanics being used, lets hope it will all make interesting nad balanced gameplay.
Sure, I wouldnât mind him. After WoL and HotS the man deserves some justice.
