it CAN be a hunter, every worm whould have to be infected though, they have been shown to indect every specis but hunters and engeiners. think about it. the 'body' of the hunter has more worms, so bigger mass, the arms have less worms, so they whould be thinner.

Just to clear that up, the appearance of several juggernauts in some videos isn't what you think it is. I'm pretty sure that if you can edit Halo 2 you can edit how many will spawn, and if it will respawn. Oh, and not that I have seen any that have more than one Juggernaut, but I haven't watched any juggernaut fights either.

'''Modifications to the article'''


The Juggernaut is either canon or at least [[Template:semicanon|semi-canon]], it would fall into the advanced category, and was deleted from ''Halo 2'' but not from the ''Halo'' universe itself as Bungie still clung to it as late as the early 2010s. I doubt whether 343i can have an explicit stance on the matter, as they have barely used the Flood in the meantime and even if they brought them back the Juggernaut itself is unlikely to come back properly. That leaves us with Bungie's last stance, which is actually quite ambiguous overall, but from Vic's work I would say the creature does fit somewhere in the universe, but not in the games due to AI limitations. Like in ''Halo 3'', where we were supposed to fight the Gravemind with a Scarab, but... well, you can imagine why it didn't happen. Anyway, Vic puts it too ostensibly on the same level as the Proto-Gravemind and the Gravemind, so I wouldn't dare to say it's got deleted from the universe. Deleted from ''Halo 2'', yes (according to Feast of Bones). But from Bungie's internal canon, never (according to Vic's point of view).

So this is the abomination. I think this means the so-called "thrasher form" needs to b renamed as Juggernaut since it is actually called that in a board game.

:As for the latter point, I don't think an obscure and probably quasi-canonical board game should take precedence over the name given in a major release. We could list "Juggernaut" as an alternative name for the thrasher form, though even that's suspect - do we know for a fact they're the same thing, aside from looks?

I ''really'' don't think "The Mona Lisa" motion comic should be listed as an appearance. If this article were solely about the Juggernaut it would be a different story. However, this page focuses on the canonical Abomination which, in spite of being inspired by the Juggernaut, is pointedly not the same thing. The combat form in the motion comic is just that — a combat form inspired by an unused concept, neither an Abomination nor a true Juggernaut. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our answer is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 09:37, 15 June 2017 (EDT)
