Then why did the overmind need cerebrates.

Four pages and not a single Mira mention... *sigh*

I actually hated Abathur in the campaign; his script was just plain awful.
That said, the voice acting itself was good, and definitely needs to replace the Queen we currently have.

....what? Literally in what ridiculous bizarro-world does Abathur evoke the feel of a fedora-core neckbeard??? He's an utterly single-minded alien creature with no emotional bias or need for validation, not some lonely fat tryhard who complains he can't get a girlfriend.

Suggestion acceptable. Implement enhanced vocal cords.

He drops all pronouns from his sentences. The only people I know who do this are huge smelly nerds. Everyone else talks like a normal person. So every time I hear Abathur talking I feel like I'm hanging out with a neckbeard.

Oh, lol, that would definitely put a damper on things. I don't think there's a more hated figure than Dehaka in this game.

I've never met anyone who does that at all, including the huge smelly nerds I come into contact with at local gaming stores.
That aside, why would an alien creature with little-to-no sense of individuality talk like a normal person?

I do disagree, but christ does it conjure a hysterical mental image, so thanks for that at least. Some go photoshop a fedora onto abthur.

The adjuctant, eisha, was worse. Way worse. She was like an autistic nine year old.

Izsha, you mean?
I don't even remember that, all I remember was dehaka being super annoying and i quit the campaign because of him (only to come back and reluctantly complete it).

He was added retroactively but cerebrates prooves my point, really. It should be cerebrate that should server the role of Abathur - who unlike them was killable and had all kind of unnecessary stuff like moving body. He wasn't really manpulating strains with his hands, after all.

I would rather have the Overmind, that guy/thing is badass.

No killable character presence at all - just indirect effects (maybe additional minions, maybe buffs - kind of like abathur but more large scale).
