Big fan of the channel. I would like you to consider "space: above and beyond" for some future videos. Cool space battles, space marines, xenophobic aliens, and R Lee Ermy going all full metal jacket on the pilot episode.
I feel Jim is underrated among the pantheon of iconic video game characters. So it's cool you guys dedicated a video to him and hope there'll be more like it in the future.
he's just a guy. no special destiny, no prophecy, no supernatural powers, just a heart of gold and a determination of steel, and yet he saved the universe.
Raynor's up there with Zeratul for best written SC characters. Alarak, Stukov, Dehaka and Tychus are also quite interesting. Whatever happened to Tosh though?
Tassadar, Zeratul, Kerrigan get a lot of love from the fanbase. But to me my favourite character from the StarCraft universe will always me Jim. He is exactly what I want to see in a leader who would lead the humans in a world as terrifying and harsh as that of starcraft. A beacon of hope, the optimism that is needed. I think his speech before the final battle in Wings of Liberty sums his character up rather well.
Hats off to the guy who stole the heart of one of the most badass women in video games. Also, i'm surprised they didn't mention the Magistrate that was sent to help Raynor.
Oh ok, I rember reading it from an offical blizz post on their forum. But if i rember wrong that would be good as that would lead to some plotholes as MrQuickshot117 pointed out. But do you know in that case what happend I'am rly curios, was kinda hopeing for him to show up in some way in SC2.
@@Servellion No it's not. Sarah Kerrigan is responsible for Queen of Blades' crimes no more than toddler can be hold responsible for murder. Kerrigan was not in control of Queen of Blades' actions. Any justice system will accept mental disorder defense in her case.
@@nortons7040 Except the Queen of Blades isn't a separate entity. She even admits this in HotS. "I wasn't controlled, I felt an..."influence"" And no justice system would take her side as AFTER she gets purified, she goes back to ordering the destruction of entire worlds. The only time she even showed a hint of restraint was after she rescued Jim and even then her initial plan was to bring down the entire might of the Swarm directly onto Augustgrad killing thousands in her pursuit of Mengsk. It was only after she noticed Jim in the background did she show any semblance of a conscious and re-work her strategy to land outside.
There is something... mythological about his relationship with Sarah Kerrigan. The enduring pals in battle, the friends who would never leave the other one behind, the love that trespasses the barrier between universes... In the end, love is very simple. "Like riding a bike".
This was actually an intentional and clever callback to us messing up "Ryan's Raiders" in the last Starcraft video we did. Okay okay fine you're right, we messed up!
Jim Raynor is a badass! Also, my recommendations for future episodes are: Gwyn, Lord of Cinder; Father Elijah from Fallout New Vegas; Ozpin, the headmaster of the Beacon Academy; the favorite villain of Pandora, Handsome Jack; and Reaver from Fable 2 and 3.
Some suggestions, if I may: 1. The Combine from Half-Life 2 2. The Co-Prosperity Sphere from Man in the High Castle (would go well with the Greater German Reich) 3. Norsefire England from V for Vendetta
As a proud member of the Adeptus Custodes, I proudly follow the Emperor's true teachings. He is no God, despite what you foolish mortals may claim. He would weep if He could see what His Imperium has become.
Lovely. To my understanding a good chunk of SC2 players have mostly or only played it for the multiplayer, climbing ladders and doing custom games. Nothing wrong with that, but they are missing out on the great story that is the Campaigns. Wings of Liberty is by far my favorite of the bunch, I've replayed it countless times, and a lot of it comes down to the charm, wit and great personality that is James Raynor, aka Jimmy.
with time I've come to realize anime can be way better written than many stories from "our part of the world"

Characters I would like to see next: 1. William J. Blazkowicz (Wolfenstein) 2. Master Chief (Halo) 3. Caesar (Fallout) 4. Emperor Palpatine (Star Wars) 5. Shepard (Mass Effect)
Serpentgrad If they do one on Darth Sidious (Emperor Palpatine), they better follow up with one on another of the most notorious Sith Lords, Darth Vader.
They can't really do Shepard, for the same reasons why Shepard can't appear in any books, or non main line games, based purely off character creation there are... let's see, three, nine, 54, 108 different possibilities, and that is PURELY character creation, the choices one can make in the games, especially when you include did you play a particular DLC or or not as a choice in and of itself... well i'm pretty sure the possible iterations are in the thousands, if not tens of thousands.
Serpentgrad 💡 Wouldn't you know it? I forgot another one that just came to me; Let's also see them do a video on maybe the greatest female video game character of them all: Samus Aran of the Metroid games.
If they do a dossier on Darth Sidious (the Emperor), they also better do one on who if a definite candidate for the most notorious of Sith Lords, Darth Vader.
A dossier on the legendary Doomslayer would be nice! His lore is kinda scattered and unclear at some points, and it'd be cool to see y'all piece it together for everyone.
@@MSheepdog YAS!!! especially if Morena Baccarin (Inara) played Kerrigan. They had good chemistry in Firefly, and she totally has the poise for the Queen of Blades.
Great video as always. Though while the Starcraft Universe is somewhat lacking in lore, I do look forward to more videos on the universe as it's one of my favorites. :3
About the only hint of his disappearance, was the amount of flowers on Raynor's parent's graves that suddenly appeared. Not to mention the greening of the devastated worlds, including Mar Sara. "Some say that Kerrigan came to get Jimmy and disappeared together. The Protoss say they are Xel'naga now, doing the task of being gods, fixing things to rights. But who honestly knows.... You'd have to find them and ask if you want my advice."
i love characters that are not only truly good people but lead by example and bravery. no matter what, Jim will always be one of my all time favorite characters in SI-FI
Jim was always one of my favorite character because of his character, just imagine a place where psychics and highly advanced races exist and there's just this one dude in an outdated combat suit with a gun
Love the channel :D Characters/Factions for suggestions: 1. God-Emperor of Mankind 2. Paul Atreides (Dune) 3. House Atreides (Dune) 4. The Tenno (Warframe) 5. Holy Britannian Empire (Code Geass) 6. Lelouch vi Britannia (Code Geass)
Suggestion: 1) The Hero, Avenging Son, Head commander of Imperium of Man, Primarch, Lord of Ultramar, Tactical Genius, Leader second only to Emperor of Man himself glorius ROBOUTE GULLIMAN 2) The Lich Lord of The Plaguelands, Commander of The Dread Necropolis, Master of the Cold Dark, Founder of the Cult of The Damned, Former Member of the Council of Six, Creator of the Abominations, Betrayer of Humanity, Summoner of Archimonde, and Majordomo to The Lich King KEL'THUZAD
SonsOfLorgar From what little I learned about Warhammer 40,000, the true architects of the Horus Heresy were the Chaos Gods, just like the Sith were the only true victors of the Clone Wars.
Another great video! New fan here, loving it so far. I really like that these videos aren't afraid to be TLDR's of the given universe's overall story within the scope of the character or event in question. On that note...I never played SC2 past wings of liberty but recall LOTS of screeching about the story after it.....it doesn't sound that bad. Thoughts, anyone?
Although you may not find much information on them, I'd love to see you do some videos on the characters and organizations from the Legacy of Kain games. Among the characters are Kain: Scion of Balance, his former lieutenant turned enemy and finally his mightiest ally in the battle against the true enemy, Raziel and the character who showed himself to be the Jesus Christ of the undead, Janos Audron.
Music is a little off but defintely more fitting compared to the Dominion video. Great job! Looking forward to the next Starcraft videos (Can we get Planetside 2 tho?)
Great Video, however, there's a tiny mistake 3:44 Confederacy capital planet is Tarsonis (where the battle of New Gettysburg took place) Korhal is the capital of the Son of Korhal, the rebel group turned into Terran Dominion
If you still need suggestions, I recommend Dossiers on Lady Dame Honor Stephanie Alexander-Harrington (from the Honor Harrignton books), Admiral Wilf Ansor Brim (from the Helmsman books of the late Bill Baldwin; a series that deserves its own Atlas entry, etc.), and Jaxom of Ruatha Hold (Dragonriders of Pern).
Good ol' Jimmy boy! showing us just how badass the bard archetype can be. seriously, I know he looks like a stock standard grizzled veteran stereotype but if you take a look at his history and accomplishments you pretty much just find one long ongoing list of talking his way out of things and talking people into things and getting people to sign up for certain death with a smile on their face because dammit there's a job what needs a-doin' the man has gotten his entire unit to put a death sentence on their heads because it was the right thing to do, gotten captured for that death sentence and _somehow talked his way from a summary execution into being the head of law enforcement for the settlement that captured him_ when someone from his old unit decided it wasn't worth it and set out to kill him he talked them into joining up instead he has talked complete strangers into turning their backs on everything they believe in to give him a chance to try to show them things from his perspective (again, sent there to kill him) talked one of his worst enemies into putting their life on the line to defend _their_ worst enemy I'mma stop there because there's just a whole laundry list of other impossible communication outcomes long enough that I'd hit the wordcount limit long before finishing.
Fun fact, Robert Clotworthy (who plays Jim Raynor) was the voice of the computer in Nick Fury's SUV in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. No wonder that thing takes the amount of punishment it does...
Love the videos, they are informative and easy enougt to understand, keep at it. And I would love to see more from warhammer 40k, chapter master Logan Grimnar, the old wolf espesily.
It would be cool if you guys did a focus on Fenix. I feel like he gets overshadowed so much even though his story was a bit of a fulcrum especially when it comes to some of Raynor's later motivations. Fenix's murder had built on Raynor's guilt and anger, as well as his need to redeem Sarah.

Sounds Fun

Warmaster James wololo
Oh Yeah
Hey man
I feel Jim is underrated among the pantheon of iconic video game characters. So it's cool you guys dedicated a video to him and hope there'll be more like it in the future.
he's just a guy. no special destiny, no prophecy, no supernatural powers, just a heart of gold and a determination of steel, and yet he saved the universe.
Damn. This one hit home for me. Old Jimmy Raynor isn’t that well know so it brings a tear to my eye to see you guys made a video on him.
Well, Jimmy doesn't care. He isn't the baddest ass in the universe but he enjoys it everyday nonetheless...
Jim isn’t well known wut
Enough to bring a tear to a mans eye
Best starcraft character ever.
Blyat no! It's Stukov our beloved Commisar!
Sending Hordes of loyal
-guardsmen- Infected!
He is the best, but tychus is a close second
Both Rynor and Tychus are the best. The best human duo in Starcraft.
Raynor's up there with Zeratul for best written SC characters. Alarak, Stukov, Dehaka and Tychus are also quite interesting. Whatever happened to Tosh though?
Tassadar, Zeratul, Kerrigan get a lot of love from the fanbase.
But to me my favourite character from the StarCraft universe will always me Jim. He is exactly what I want to see in a leader who would lead the humans in a world as terrifying and harsh as that of starcraft. A beacon of hope, the optimism that is needed.
I think his speech before the final battle in Wings of Liberty sums his character up rather well.
"My Pleasure Darlin'... Always was." ~ Jim Raynor
Hats off to the guy who stole the heart of one of the most badass women in video games.
Also, i'm surprised they didn't mention the Magistrate that was sent to help Raynor.
Apearently blizz retconed so that the magistrate was Raynor =/ wich just feels wrong to me.
That's really bad, and it actually kind of leaves some plot-holes, and if you think about it Blizzard pretty much just got rid of the player.
No, that didn't happen.
Oh ok, I rember reading it from an offical blizz post on their forum. But if i rember wrong that would be good as that would lead to some plotholes as MrQuickshot117 pointed out. But do you know in that case what happend I'am rly curios, was kinda hopeing for him to show up in some way in SC2.
Somebody tell me that the player was actually matt horner but I am not sure if that true. That make a lot of sense if it is.
"I never gave up on you Kerrigan, don't you give up on us!!"

Hell, it's about time
Western Spy my goose is getting cooked...
This needs to be a movie series. Rich story, exciting, rich characters.
very rich
THIS IS JIMMY
Right on.
Sounds Fun
Give em some pepper
I'm getting buried here!
There is something... mythological about his relationship with Sarah Kerrigan. The enduring pals in battle, the friends who would never leave the other one behind, the love that trespasses the barrier between universes...
In the end, love is very simple. "Like riding a bike".
Brings out a touch of emotion, this is a series I've been playing since I was 9 years old. I'll never forget the amazing universe Blizzard thought up.
"Raiders Roll..."
My boi!!! Man I grew up with this guy as one of my personnal heroes and inspirations. And he still is. I salute you.
Starcraft...one of the best love stories ever and one of the best heroes :)
Its capital on "Korhal" I think you mean Tarsonis.
This was actually an intentional and clever callback to us messing up "Ryan's Raiders" in the last Starcraft video we did. Okay okay fine you're right, we messed up!
Tarsonis will never fall!
First "Ryan's Raiders", Now the Confederate capital of 'Korhal' You had one job LOL.
Again messed up on a Starcraft video lol. Shame! Shame! shame!
Matthew Oldhaver Ryans Raiders, Confederate Capital of 'Korhal' whats next?
You should have highlighted his friendship with the Protoss Fenix
Tassidar and Fenix needs more love. I hope the Institute takes a closer look and these amazing Protoss.
Jim Raynor is a badass! Also, my recommendations for future episodes are: Gwyn, Lord of Cinder; Father Elijah from Fallout New Vegas; Ozpin, the headmaster of the Beacon Academy; the favorite villain of Pandora, Handsome Jack; and Reaver from Fable 2 and 3.
Gwyn would be complicated, because most people don't know that he was protagonist of King's Field III...
Sees topic. Smashes like button.
Well done Jimmy, You've earned that ending :)
The only good thing in Legacy of the Void.
Some suggestions, if I may:
1. The Combine from Half-Life 2
2. The Co-Prosperity Sphere from Man in the High Castle (would go well with the Greater German Reich)
3. Norsefire England from V for Vendetta
Dossier: Emperor of Mankind, please.
That would be impossible to do unless it's in parts. :p
They have already done one.
Justin Kovacs They did a video on the Imperium as a whole, not one on the Emperor Himself.
Do you mean the true Emperor, Leto II Atreides?
As a proud member of the Adeptus Custodes, I proudly follow the Emperor's true teachings. He is no God, despite what you foolish mortals may claim. He would weep if He could see what His Imperium has become.

The writing in SC2 had nothing on SC1, but loved it anyway.
HOW IRONIC THAT I JUST FINISHED THE STARCRAFT II CAMPAIGN THEN YOU GUYS UPLOAD THIS
Code Geass -> United Federation of Nations, The Black Knights, Holy Britannian Empire, The Geass Order
TheLPRnetwork hell yes
Central from FMA
no Anime please
The only issue is that... it will contain a hell of a lot of spoilers hahaha

[1] Jim Raynor deserves a film of his own.

So you're saying Nathan Fillion should play our pal Stimmy Jimmy in a movie. I'd pay to see that.
@@MSheepdog YAS!!! especially if Morena Baccarin (Inara) played Kerrigan. They had good chemistry in Firefly, and she totally has the poise for the Queen of Blades.
Nice music
THANK YOU!
Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing
Yes ...the music was very much to Jim's and the Terran's theme in Starcraft II.
Name of the track pls 😍😍
Jimmy and Sarah got their happy ending! I believe it!
+ @GabrielHellborne It happened !!!!!
Great video as always. Though while the Starcraft Universe is somewhat lacking in lore, I do look forward to more videos on the universe as it's one of my favorites. :3
About the only hint of his disappearance, was the amount of flowers on Raynor's parent's graves that suddenly appeared. Not to mention the greening of the devastated worlds, including Mar Sara.
"Some say that Kerrigan came to get Jimmy and disappeared together. The Protoss say they are Xel'naga now, doing the task of being gods, fixing things to rights. But who honestly knows.... You'd have to find them and ask if you want my advice."
Jim Rainor is one of the little true examples in the world, whom our children must follow and learn from!!! :D :D :D
Gotta agree with that statement that Raynor is such an honorable man who strove to do the right thing no matter the cost.
The factions of Sins of Solar Empire? The Trader Emergency Coalition, The Advent and The Vasari?
One of the best Sci-fi strategy games I ever played. Would be cool if they did it.
That's a fantastic idea. There might not be enough information for a full video like this though.
Then what about a colab video? Combine all three factions into one super-video or something?
I wish they would make another one. I usually just play mods on it now. I haven't used the vanilla factions in some time. But yeah, the game is great.
realm vid might work then
AH HELL YES, Ma boi Jim Raynor.
Do Scolar Visari or Nathan Hale one day.
JohnnyElRed agreed!
If there was ever a Starcraft character that deserved a happy-ever-after, it's ol' Jimmy.
well him and phoenix RIP
"Been waitin' on you..." Great vid as always!
Firebat is full of hell and heat
Easily one of my most favorite heroes in sci-fi or fantasy.
Man, i loved S 2 Wings of Liberty, it had that awesome feel that i really didnt get in the sequels, not sure why.
By far my favourite sci-fi character
For a suggestion: I've love to see you cover Honor Harrington. Your video on the Star Kingdom of Manticore was awesome!
i love characters that are not only truly good people but lead by example and bravery. no matter what, Jim will always be one of my all time favorite characters in SI-FI
o7 Raynor. Hope you found peace and happiness after all of that.
man you guys are great. just seeing jim's legacy again made me cry XD
Jim Ryanor & Tychus Findlay my alltime favorite characters and team in all Starcraft
Easily one of my favorites! Perhaps do one on Kerrigan or the Zerg or Protoss. Either way this was magnificent
Jim was always one of my favorite character because of his character, just imagine a place where psychics and highly advanced races exist and there's just this one dude in an outdated combat suit with a gun
I moved heaven and earth to bring you back Sarah! Now don't you give up on us
I love these Templin Institute videos.
Love the channel :D
Characters/Factions for suggestions:
1. God-Emperor of Mankind
2. Paul Atreides (Dune)
3. House Atreides (Dune)
4. The Tenno (Warframe)
5. Holy Britannian Empire (Code Geass)
6. Lelouch vi Britannia (Code Geass)
No mention of his best bro Fenix?
Suggestion:
1) The Hero, Avenging Son, Head commander of Imperium of Man, Primarch, Lord of Ultramar, Tactical Genius, Leader second only to Emperor of Man himself glorius ROBOUTE GULLIMAN
2) The Lich Lord of The Plaguelands, Commander of The Dread Necropolis, Master of the Cold Dark, Founder of the Cult of The Damned, Former Member of the Council of Six, Creator of the Abominations, Betrayer of Humanity, Summoner of Archimonde, and Majordomo to The Lich King KEL'THUZAD
It's good that the Institute is expanding outward to character profiles and that I became a Jim Raynor fan after SC2 went free.
3:18 TH-cam employee handing xXSoNZ_oF_K0RH4LlXx his diamond play button -2212
For another dossier, I hope you can do the Protoss as well as Artanis. Him, Zeratul and Raynor are among my favorite Starcraft figures ever.
Amestris is a good idea for a video. Love the channel!
Hell, it's about time!
Had been playing starcraft for 20+ years and i didn't know Jim Raynor had a son. Shame on me.
Suggestion: Erebus, 1st chaplain of the 17th Legion Astartes and arguably, the primary architect of the Horus Heresy...
SonsOfLorgar
From what little I learned about Warhammer 40,000, the true architects of the Horus Heresy were the Chaos Gods, just like the Sith were the only true victors of the Clone Wars.
3:46 The capital was Tarsonis.
Another great video! New fan here, loving it so far. I really like that these videos aren't afraid to be TLDR's of the given universe's overall story within the scope of the character or event in question. On that note...I never played SC2 past wings of liberty but recall LOTS of screeching about the story after it.....it doesn't sound that bad. Thoughts, anyone?
Great vid, thanks be if my favorite characters of all time
The Vault Dweller/Chosen One from Fallout 1 and 2!
I think that a video about Ghazghkull Thraka, Commissar Yarrick or Roboute Guilliman (from the Warhammer 40000 universe) would be owesome
i really hope this isnt the last we hear from Jim.
Starcraft would make an excellent movie
Templin Institute, gimme a dossier on the DoomSlayer, that story is god damn EPIC!
Although you may not find much information on them, I'd love to see you do some videos on the characters and organizations from the Legacy of Kain games.
Among the characters are Kain: Scion of Balance, his former lieutenant turned enemy and finally his mightiest ally in the battle against the true enemy, Raziel and the character who showed himself to be the Jesus Christ of the undead, Janos Audron.
Music is a little off but defintely more fitting compared to the Dominion video. Great job! Looking forward to the next Starcraft videos
(Can we get Planetside 2 tho?)
Amazing BGM... Always love the Starcraft & Warhammer vids most
Jim Raynor is one of my absolute favorite character's, though I think that it sucks that he just fades away.
The Southern Systems will Rise Again! XD
Ah the famous Jim Raynor leader of the Ryan’s Raiders.
Can you do a dossier video about Master Chief and Arbiter Thel Vadam from the Halo games?
3:30 actually, at that time they were called Sons of Korhal, they weren't called Raynor's Raiders until Jim deserted the newly formed Terran Dominion.
A dossier on Lord Commander Dante of the Blood Angels Space Marine Chapter from Warhammer 40k would be pretty cool
A son, A husband, A father, A marine, An Outlaw, A Marshall, A rebel, A freedom fighter, a terrorist, a leader, A hero that is Jim Raynor.
This is Jimmy.
Great Video, however, there's a tiny mistake
3:44 Confederacy capital planet is Tarsonis (where the battle of New Gettysburg took place)
Korhal is the capital of the Son of Korhal, the rebel group turned into Terran Dominion
You did well on jim raynor backstory,can you do the same thing with Sarah Karrigan?
If you still need suggestions, I recommend Dossiers on Lady Dame Honor Stephanie Alexander-Harrington (from the Honor Harrignton books), Admiral Wilf Ansor Brim (from the Helmsman books of the late Bill Baldwin; a series that deserves its own Atlas entry, etc.), and Jaxom of Ruatha Hold (Dragonriders of Pern).
Good ol' Jimmy boy! showing us just how badass the bard archetype can be.
seriously, I know he looks like a stock standard grizzled veteran stereotype but if you take a look at his history and accomplishments you pretty much just find one long ongoing list of talking his way out of things and talking people into things and getting people to sign up for certain death with a smile on their face because dammit there's a job what needs a-doin'
the man has gotten his entire unit to put a death sentence on their heads because it was the right thing to do, gotten captured for that death sentence and _somehow talked his way from a summary execution into being the head of law enforcement for the settlement that captured him_ when someone from his old unit decided it wasn't worth it and set out to kill him he talked them into joining up instead he has talked complete strangers into turning their backs on everything they believe in to give him a chance to try to show them things from his perspective (again, sent there to kill him) talked one of his worst enemies into putting their life on the line to defend _their_ worst enemy
I'mma stop there because there's just a whole laundry list of other impossible communication outcomes long enough that I'd hit the wordcount limit long before finishing.
Fun fact: the friend who offered jim his position of major in mar sarah is the character who we control in starcraft 1
Always outgunned, always outnumbered, never outfought.
Fun fact, Robert Clotworthy (who plays Jim Raynor) was the voice of the computer in Nick Fury's SUV in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. No wonder that thing takes the amount of punishment it does...
Suggestion: The Planetside factions. They are relatively simple so you could fit all three into a video.
Would love to see an ol' factory episode on the Protoss Hierarchy please.
One of my all time favorite heros
You guys should do a video about the federation from star trek, or a dossier on obi wan Kenobi
Do General Jack O'neill from stargate next please.
Hell ya!
Love the videos, they are informative and easy enougt to understand, keep at it.
And I would love to see more from warhammer 40k, chapter master Logan Grimnar, the old wolf espesily.
It would be cool if you guys did a focus on Fenix. I feel like he gets overshadowed so much even though his story was a bit of a fulcrum especially when it comes to some of Raynor's later motivations. Fenix's murder had built on Raynor's guilt and anger, as well as his need to redeem Sarah.
Excellent.
So, I know you mostly do heroic characters, but I would like to see you do a villain:
Scorpius of the Peacekeepers (Farscape)
Suggestions for a future topic: Marcus Fenix from Gears of War
