Artanis doing that to zerglings is clearly just that though. It can’t be an explosion because nothing in the video is exploding, and again, if it was an explosion that came from behind Artanis, it wouldn’t knock the zerglings out in front of him while he remains unphased. The explosion doesn’t travel through his body… :man_facepalming:t2:

The only thing it’s an explosion of is kinetic energy. It’s clearly direct telekinesis, but they added the blue light behind Artanis to make it look cool.

No, that part is showing the persecution after they left. Note that when they cut their nerve cords, they used blue psi blades.

First off, he was lying on the ground when the explosion went off. It would have originated above him. Secondly, As mentioned, physics doesnt work like that. Mass is a thing, and artanis is huge compared to a zergling even without the extra bulk of his armor. Thirdly, if its a psionic explosion, he may well have been able to shape it such that he was unaffected.

So clearly telekinesis that they describe it as an energy blast and show an energy explosion going off. Is it really that hard for you to just admit that this isnt what you said it was? You did it earlier.

That wasnt my read, but i concede that it isnt definitive.

See? Its not that hard.

If you watch it carefully the blue light activates while the zerglings are still on top of him. Notice that they’re not going anywhere with the light, because, again, it’s just a light, not an explosion.

When he actually throws the zerglings off he’s in a standing position, which reveals more of the blue light as they come off of him and the sparks from his psi blade spread out.

Yes Gradius, thats how causality works. The explosion started, expanded, caught the zerglings and threw them. If the light started after the zerglings were thrown, THEN it would be proof that the light was separate from the throwing.

Right, so he used an explosion to throw them off and stood up. Wow, that was difficult. He may have even used levitation to get up so easily

No, watch it again, the light is on for like 2 seconds and none of the zerglings are moving. It’s not an explosion.

We see Kerrigan charge psionic attacks several times in a similar manner.

Then you can say that Artanis was gathering energy for a telekinetic attack, not that the light is the source of the attack, especially since it’s behind him when it goes off.

I “can” say that, but i would be wrong. Telekinesis has never been represented with a glow like that even if it were otherwise consistent with a telekinetic shockwave.

The glow isn’t part of the telekinesis, so I agree.

It looks like the glow gave him enough energy to throw the zerglings off with telekinesis and then cast that big psi storm right after.

But the glow isnt coming from his equipment, and we’ve seen what his stuff looks like when its channeling, because he does it a moment later. Note the conspicuous absence of a glowing corona of light.

We don’t know where it’s coming from, we just know that he’s either charging for an attack like you said or it’s the slowest telekinetic explosion the universe has ever seen that also went around or traveled through his body.

If they wanted to portray that light as the source of the explosion, they did a pretty bad job. :man_shrugging:t2:

The simplest explanation is he telekinetically threw the zerglings off and the light has something to do with his resurgence ability (which also heals him and recharges his shields).

The resurgence ability that also includes an energy blast consistent with what we see, you mean?

Very consistent with Energy blast, though. If it’s an Energy Blast, then it can travel around an object.

You guys are making up your own laws of physics at this point. Explain in explicit detail how a omnidirectional kinetic energy blast goes around a target. I want to hear it from Kelthar especially who thinks it was an “explosion” that left Artanis unaffected but magically decimated the zergling in front of him.

It radiates from Artanis. There are other examples in the lore of telepaths manifesting similar attacks, namely Nova. This is amazingly trivial Gradius.

No…it radiates from behind him. Go watch it again if necessary.

Like weaponized telekinesis? :thinking:

Artanis is lying on the ground when the explosion starts. You can see it building while he’s lying on the floor.

No, like her freaking psi blasts that level city blocks and deal more damage to a local area than a nuke, while leaving her untouched.

You can also see the exact moment he pushes the Zerglings off…and the light is behind him the whole time.

It also doesn’t “build”. It merely becomes more visible after he knocks the lings off.

Because the force emanates from her, not some blue light that’s right next to her. Wtf even is this comparison.

So I just get around to watch yet another Gradius’ evidence for Protoss’ Telekinesis. You’re basically keep throwing stuffs at the wall; hoping that something would stick at this point.

Anyway, my Gravitational Nullification theory is alive and well. Your video also support my conjecture much better than yours. Seriously, do you even critically analyze your reference? Or are you just bring up whatever instance where the Protoss move something?

I don’t want to insult your intelligence, but have you ever studied Physics of any kind? Do I need to explain that sound wave is actually a form of Energy Blast? Albeit extremely weak?

wtf did you even watch it? You have literal protoss floating without the aid of any technology. That’s telekinesis.

That has nothing to do with what’s happening here. Artanis blasts off all the zerglings with an omnidirectional force that’s coming from himself. Kelthar calls it an explosion, which works nothing like a sound wave.
