8 Ultra Satisfying Video Game Moments Where You Finally Got Revenge

3. Overloading Mengsk - Starcraft 2: Heart Of The Swarm

If there are two words that will elicit hate from a Starcraft player more than "zerg rush", it's "Arcturus Mengsk". This guy is quite possibly the biggest chode this side of the void, and throughout the majority of Starcraft lore is shown to be a ruthless and despicable dictator, who chooses time and time again to sacrifice his own armies in order to protect his hide.

(Side note: I know this is how most Terran players also conduct their matches but here, for narrative purposes, this guy goes above and beyond when it comes to being a dick.)

One of his biggest mistakes however was in his treatment of Sarah Louise Kerrigan, known to us better as The Queen Of Blades. By leaving her for dead and allowing her to be assimilated by The Zerg, Mengsk solidified himself as a bad mamma who was going to end up getting jamma'd by Kerrigan's new Zerg appendages.

And after a lengthy, but brilliant campaign and its expansions we finally get to the moment where Kerrigan overloads Arcturus so much that he explodes and words literally cannot express how good it is to finally be rid of him.
