StarCraft II Heaven

Strengths

• Units are comparatively inexpensive and quick to build.
• Zerg unit construction is highly efficient (units hatch from larvae, not from buildings).
• All Zerg structures and units regenerate their health over time. (SC1)
• Zerg Queens can infest Terran Command Centers, essentially capturing them and building Infested Terrans. (SC1)
• Zerg Scourge have the highest attack rating of any airborne attack besides the Yamato Cannon. (SC1)
• Zerglings and Scourge hatch in pairs, dramatically speeding up force construction. (SC1)
• Zerg Defiler can protect units from ranged attack with Dark Swarm. (SC1)
• Zerg supply, detection, and transport is all carried out by the Overlord, allowing for unlimited detection support and troop transport.
• Zerg have the only Small airborne units, significantly reducing the effectiveness of anti-air missile attacks. (SC1)

Weaknesses

• Zerg units are relatively weak compared to their counterparts in other races.
• Zerg building construction requires the sacrifice of a worker.
• Most Zerg buildings must be built on a substance called “creep”, including the colonies which produce it.
• Zerg Overlords are extremely slow and thus are highly vulnerable to anti-air attacks. A dead Overlord costs the player Control, transport, and minerals. (SC1)
• Hydralisks are the only Zerg ground units with ranged physical attacks. (SC1)
