Previously in Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty. Jim Raynor fought against Emperor Mengsk's Dominion and while that was going on Kerrigan, the "Queen of Blades" sends in her Zerg swarm in monstrous numbers and overwhelms some planets and infests many Terrans.

Raynor not only is fighting Mengsk's opressive Terran Dominion, but also has to deal with the Zerg as well and even prevent other Terrans from being infested. Raynor also sends forces out to distant planets to gather Xel Naga artifacts that are being guarded by an overprotective and blinded by their own religion Protoss force called the Tal'darim. The Xel Naga artifacts prove very useful and are the only thing in existence powerful enough to bring back Kerrigan's humanity.

Raynor runs into Prince Valerian, Emperor Mengsk's son. Valerian convinces Raynor that he is on his side and is well aware of how corrupt his father is and wants to join Raynor's cause and give them support with his own military that disbanded from the Dominion to help Raynor.

Later on, Raynor ends up having to team up with the Dominion anyway to finally with Mengsk's help put a stop to Kerrigan and the Swarm. Raynor uses the intense power of the Xel Naga Artifacts to finally bring Kerrigan her humanity back.

It turns out that Raynor's good friend Tychus had other plans than to just bring her back. He was working with Mengsk and is ordered to kill Kerrigan even though she got her humanity back and is no longer the Queen of Blades. Raynor ends up killing Tychus and keeps Kerrigan alive.

Mengsk's oppressive Dominion is still going strong, but Raynor now has a victory as he finally brought Kerrigan back to her senses and she is no longer infested.

Now we go to Heart of the Swarm. Kerrigan is still angry at Mengsk for sacrificing her to the Zerg making her become the monster that was the Queen of Blades. Kerrigan's number one priority is to kill Mengsk. Kerrigan is now in custody of Raynor's rebel Terran forces and Prince Valerian who is still on Raynor's side has been running experiments on her in a lab which takes us where this video leaves off.
