Twilight archon

The Protoss Twilight Archon was a heavy assault unit in StarCraft II. It has since been replaced by the Archon.

Overview


Both branches of the Protoss warrior tradition share the ability to merge their souls. Twilight Archons radiated incalculable power and could unleash devastating psionic storms against enemy forces both in the air and on the ground.

Game Unit
A Twilight Archon could be created from the merging of either two High Templar, two Dark Templar, or one of each type of warrior.

The true abilities of the Twilight Archon are shrouded in mystery, though it is clear that they were more than capable of taking care of themselves and dishing out considerable damage to clumps of weaker ground units. They were described as "attacking with psionic storms" which is identical to the Archon description in the StarCraft I manual.

Unlike the Archons in original StarCraft, the psionic manifestation of the Twilight Archon match the team color.

Abilities
Twilight Archons possessed the Dark Archon's feedback ability, an ability revealed at BlizzCon 2007.
