Ground Units: *

Larva

Description: Larva are the closest creatures to the original Zerg insectoids. Although their size and toughness were greatly boosted by the Xel'Naga during their experiments, they still possess the two traits that originally intrigued the ancient masters: genetic versatility and psychic sensitivity. Maggot-like, Zerg Larvae contain within them the genetic code for all other Zerg breeds. When a new breed of Zerg is needed, an individual Larva will enter a pupal state and begin replicating the DNA of one specific Zerg breed at an astounding rate. After a short gestation period, the new mature Zerg hatches.

Notes: Larva spawn every 20 seconds. Mutates into most units.

Morphalisk
No Image Available
Description: The Morphalisk is a variant zerg larva created from larvae by the Queen.

Notes: The Morphalisk can be moved by the player and can survive away from Creep. It has normal move speed, and it is slow off the creep.

Drone

Description: Drones stem from the savage Gashyrr Wasps of Eldersthine, absorbed into the Zerg Swarm to serve as resource gatherers. Over time they became Drones, engineered with the Larvae's ability to break down their own genetic coding and transform themselves into rudimentary Zerg structures. A transforming Drone needs Creep to provide nourishment and mass to support its new form.

Notes: Unlike their predecessors, they no longer have a ranged attack.

Burrow
Description:Many Zerg ground units may burrow, rendering themselves invisible but incapable of moving or attacking.

Evolution time: 35

Zergling

Description: Zerglings were evolved from the Zz'gashi Dune Runner when the latter were assimilated into the Zerg Swarm. The Zergling may be a relatively recent addition to the swarm given that Zz'gash seems to be located close to the Koprulu Sector. Zerglings form the most numerous of the zerg mutations; the simple DNA allows two Zerglings to be spawned from a single larva. The larvae get the genetic information from the 'primordial ooze' of spawning pools.

Notes: Zerglings have evolved, affecting such things as their appearance. They have small wings but cannot use them to fly. They still receive a speed upgrade and an attack upgrade(of 20%).

Baneling

Description: Banelings are created from Zerglings following a brief chrysalis phase. Banelings are so bloated they can barely walk; they must tuck into a tight ball and roll around the battlefield. the creature triggers a reaction within its volatile chemical payload that causes it to explode with devastating force and shower the immediate surroundings with searing acid. These living bombs are highly effective against both structures and ground forces; in fact, a clutch of them is capable of wiping out a group of vehicles and infantry in the blink of an eye. The Banelings' lethality is further enhanced by the zerg predilection for burrowing. An apparently safe area can soon turn into a deathtrap as these monstrosities emerge and roll into the midst of their foes, giving them virtually no time to react.

Notes: Banelings are strong against melee units but are weak against ranged weapons due to their low hit points. The Baneling's splash attack does not currently injure friendly units. Banelings cannot be commanded to explode, they only explode as part of an attack, or when destroyed.

Hydralisk

Description: The Hydralisk is a Zerg evolution of the Slothien. While Slothiens were peaceful herbivores, the Hydralisk is noted as being one of the most fierce and sadistic of the Zerg strains. They can penetrate 2 cm of NeoSteel even at maximum range, such penetrative force stemming from their remarkable muscle structure (4,000 muscles compared to a Terran's 629). In addition, these spines are slightly poisonous. Fortunately for their enemies however, a few seconds warning is given before a Hydralisk launches such a volley, courtesy of the carapace folding back.

Notes: The Hydralisk maintains the ability to morph into a Lurker.

Lurker

Description: By the time of the Brood War, the Zerg had evolved Lurker from the Hydralisk. Lurkers serve as defense warriors for Hive Clusters and outlying Zerg colonies.

Roach

Description: The Roach is a particularly tough Zerg breed due to its high speed regeneration ability.

Notes:One-on-one, a Roach will generally win in a fight against its enemies, as it regenerates 15 damage per second. A Roach can heal fast enough to retain approximately 50% of its hit points if hit by a Psi Storm, and over 80% of its hit points after its regeneration has been upgraded.

Ultralisk

Description: he Ultralisk is a 20 meter long and 5 meter high living battering ram, evolved from the docile Brontolith; a creature that the Ultralisk now bears little resemblance to. Ultralisks serve as the backbone of the Zerg Swarm, possessing an exceptionally thick carapace.

Notes:The Ultralisk is capable of stepping over smaller units such as Zerglings and has a cleaving ability to attack multiple enemy units. However, it does not deal trample damage to units it travels over. It has evolved the ability to burrow.

Queen

Description: The Queen was derived from the Arachnis Brood-Keeper. The Queen did not produce Larvae as its name might suggest, but rather had the ability to spawn other parasitic creatures. Due to its lightly armored body and lack of natural defences, Queens usually stayed near the central hive to watch over maturing Zerg. The Queens of the post-Brood War era are somewhat different from their predecessors. The full details are currently unknown, but it is known that Queens now have the advanced ability to manipulate their "offspring"; for instance, they engineered the Zergling morph to the Baneling, a breed that can contain its explosive energies until just the right moment.

Notes:Queens move slowly when not on Creep, making "Queen-rushing" difficult.

Spawn Units: *

Changeling
No Image Available
Description:The Changeling is a Zerg spy produced by the Overseer. It is a very weak and unstable creature with a short lifespan.

Notes: The Changling is a new Zerg unit spawned directly from the Overseer. Once it comes within 12 hexes of an enemy unit, the Changling automatically shifts its appearance to the basic unit of that enemy race (Zealot, Marine or Zergling) and takes on the enemy's color. Players who don't pay attention to their roaming units may quickly find their bases infiltrated by these metamorphing Zerg as they impersonate friendly forces.

Infested Marine

Description:In StarCraft II, the Infested Marine, armed with a gauss flayer, can be quickly produced in large numbers

Notes: The Infestor, a Zerg ground unit, can infest these buildings, which then disgorged Infested Marines. Infested Marines don't do much damage, but made for good distractions against an enemy. Upon infestation of structures, they are set to pop out automatically, with no build cost associated with them

Mutalisk

Description: Mutalisks are evolved from the Mantis Screamer from the desolate Dinares Sector. The Mutalisk has retained its predecessor's ability to travel through both air and space, although what other forms of propulsion it may have aside from its wings is unknown. The Mutalisk spawns small, voracious creatures called "Glaive Wurms", or "Glave Wurms", and projects these creatures to attack.

Notes: In StarCraft II, its attack will still be able to strike multiple targets,[12] bouncing to strike up to two additional targets as before.

Swarm Guardian

Description: Their appearance has changed slightly, now looking more like a Mutalisk laid out flat with its tail section behind it. Their bodies are made up of a total of five individual sections. The front section consists of the head and multiple appendages, maintaining the general appearance of the original crab-like Guardian. There are three middle sections similar to the three rib-like claws that appear on the midsection of the Mutalisk. Lastly a tail section which has four small spikes pointing backwards like those at the end of the Mutalisk's tail.

Notes: The Swarm Guardian functions much like the original Guardian as a siege unit, possessing a long range attack. The Swarm Guardian is similar to the original Guardian, however its attacks have the ability to spawn Broodlings. This unit is intended to break heavy fortifications. It's also much larger than before and mutates faster.

Corruptor

Description: The Corruptor is a squid-like Zerg flying unit set to appear in StarCraft II. When it kills an enemy unit, it corrupts it to its side, transforming it into a floating turret for a short period of time.

Notes: The Corruptor attacks air units and aerial structures, including units lifted by the Nullifier's Anti-Gravity ability. Instead of destroying them, however, it "corrupts" them, possessing the enemy units. The attack is technically a debuff, which lasts for about two seconds. If that unit is destroyed during this time, it becomes corrupted, regardless of which unit landed the final blow.
