It's clearly a "B" that marks these Borgs and that surely stands for Black. So what's the deal with shadow? What if we called silver "metal" or gold "yellow"?  |

English probably just dubbed it shadow to sound cooler but didn't change any graphics.

I guess we're all gonna keep saying shadow but always remember that black is the true definitions regarding these Borgs.  |

does it say black or shadow anywhere in game? or is it just b and the community just says shadow? When you check a Borg's stats ( X button) there's a letter in the top left corner along with the Borg's ID number. A = Alternate C = Crystal or Clear S = Silver G = Gold B = Black The same can be seen in Data Crystals. Shadow and Crystal are the community adapted words for them. |

Oh i think he means, Does it actually say the word "Black" or just B (Which probably means Black) You never know, B could stand for Butter O.o |

^ None of the words are ever mentioned apart from that one letter, and considering how the different Borgs look like, it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out what they stand for. |
