The Abomination was introduced as the Flood super unit in ''Halo Wars 2''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''Awakening the Nightmare'' expansion. Its design is derived from the Juggernaut, a Flood form that was originally created for ''[[Halo 2]]'' but was ultimately cut from the game, though the Abomination is significantly larger than its forebear. Juggernauts were originally slated to appear in the levels "[[The Oracle]]" and "[[Quarantine Zone (level)|Quarantine Zone]]". There would never be more than one Juggernaut in any given place. Once the player eliminated it, the combat forms that were supplementing it would go "offline". The Juggernaut has four to six infection forms inside its body to control it, similar to combat forms.

According to [[Robert McLees]], the Juggernaut was supposed to be "... this uber-intelligent mini boss, but the suggested intelligence was way too high for what design needed to use it for, which was as a big tank".<ref name="bones"/> | ||
The Juggernaut was also the conceptual progenitor of the [[pure form]]s seen in ''[[Halo 3]]''. However, whereas the Juggernaut was to be controlled by infection forms, pure forms are created entirely from Flood biomass.<ref name="bones"/> | The Juggernaut was also the conceptual progenitor of the [[pure form]]s seen in ''[[Halo 3]]''.
