Vote for Your Favorite StarCraft II Dark Templar
The protoss dark templar has always been one of the StarCraft community's favorite units -- now, the community has a chance to participate directly in the dark templar design process for StarCraft II! Over the course of the next month, players will vote to decide which dark templar model will appear in StarCraft II multiplayer matches.
The first option represents the Lenassa tribe of dark templar, which made its debut in the original StarCraft. This unit carries a single warp blade, and a cloth shroud covers its face.
The second option represents the Zer'atai tribe of dark templar, who wield dual scythes and wear an ensemble of heavy armor and the bones of slain zerg.
The third and final option is to have both tribes represented: When you build a dark templar, either the Lenassa or Zer'atai dark templar would spawn randomly.

That link isn't up yet. It's kind of important to know what we're voting on y'know... :)
Also is anything going to be done to prevent abuse on this vote? Someone could easily log in as Lordaeron, USWest, USEast, etc., not to mention multiple accounts, and get many votes for the one they prefer.

I saw another type of Dark Templar with dual simple blades. What about it? (or was I dreaming or I remember false? :O )

I was tempted to say both in the spirit of giving everything a chance, but then I remembered what the scythe templar is like and I think it has nothing to do with the protoss I care for, it's actually quite stupid. And so, I want them out of the game: it's not both, it's the Lenassa only !
12. Re: Vote for Your Favorite Dark Templar 01/08/2009 09:45:27 AM PST
I voted both because the overall body armor graphics looks a bit better on Lenassa and the Zer'atai's weapon looks cooler + makes it a bit more distinguishable from the zealot weapon.
my life for auir !

too bad you can't see @#%* because of their pose :/
variety is cool nonetheless, though i'd prefer 2 models of oldschool type DT
and odschool DT weapon should be much bigger than zlot blades, it can reach ground easily

You can learn more about the dark templar here http://www.starcraft2.com/features/protoss/darktemplar-vote.xml . Voting will close on Febuary 5th at 11:22 AM CET. The choice is in your hands!
Definitely both. Whenever you queue a DT, there should be a 50% chance of each model coming out of gateway. Same thing with the Ghost.
