The Carrier is the Protoss capital ship in Blizzard's StarCraft, released in 1998, and its filtered voice lines became instantly recognisable to RTS players. Lines like this one were heard every time players selected or ordered the unit in battle, alongside other iconic game voice lines like enemy spotted and the classic bomb has been planted callout from tactical shooters of the same era. Clips later spread to forums, YouTube edits and soundboards, where the formal alien delivery still signals a powerful unit arriving.
