StarCraft 20th Anniversary is the eighth episode in the sixth season of StarCrafts. It is the one-hundred twentieth episode overall.
Plot[]
Montages of a StarCraft timeline depicted as clips from older StarCrafts episodes. (See below for the list of used episodes)
The scene immediately cuts to a modest "birthday" party. A frosted cake with "2" and "0" candles is prepared on the table. Sgt. Patches blows a party horn in front of Bob the Ragelot, and a zergling (possibly Patchling) sits on the other side, enjoying the get-together party. Patches's constant blowing annoys Bob until he goes temper tantrum, punching the marine off the seat and stomping him. A zergling runs around the table, knocks the zealot's hat off his head, and chomps the cake.
Bob sees the zergling eating his cake, and angrily slashes it. However, he misses as the zergling dodges in one leap, hits the table into pieces, and trips over. The cake is splat on the floor but the zergling eats it again. Sgt. Patches, still lying on the floor, blows the party horn again.

Trivia[]
- This episode is a celebration of StarCraft's 20th Anniversary, since original StarCraft was released on March 31st, 1998.
- Previous episodes are replayed in StarCraft's chronological order:
- "BroodWar in a Nutshell" (1998 - StarCraft and BroodWar)
- "StarCrafts Mod Opening" (2010 - StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty)
- "Probelem" (2012 - StarCrafts episode 1)
- "Heart of the Swarm Opening" (2013 - StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm)
- "Legacy of the Void Opening" (2015 - StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void)
- "StarCraft Remastered Teaser" (2016 - StarCraft Remastered)
- Also, it features season finale episodes for StarCrafts in seasonal order:
- "Probelem" segment is included on yearly presentation, although technically StarCrafts is not part of official StarCraft video game series.
- This is the first time Sgt. Patches, Bob the Ragelot, and Patchling appear in one scene since "Alliance Part 3".
- This numbered episode was considered non-canon in StarCrafts due to three characters of different races interact in a room to host a party themselves.
- However, this episode has been considered canon. The reason for that is "GG No Re" due to the framed photo showing a cracked tombstone which is Crackhead's grave. The birthday party scene is shown at the end of the credits part of the aforementioned episode.
- This is the first time a zergling eats something since "Dehaka & Swann".
In-game Reference[]
- On Kerrigan's framed photo in party segment, she is shown hugging a zergling. This photo may be a reference to Kerrigan and her zergling companion, named "broken-horned zergling", during the middle of StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm campaign.
Cultural Reference[]
- A Nintendo Switch and its controller can be seen at the flat-screen television as its logo is shown.
