This creature turns out to be Dehaka who will be introduced later in the Campaign. In The Crucible, you can find a strange creature in the north of your base standing on a cliff. Players who already own Wings of Liberty can activate Heart of the Swarm directly from the site for no extra charge. Remember, the Tyrannozor does splash damage to ground units, so Burrow micro your Roaches and make sure they stay alive. Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm is an expansion pack for Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty. Alternatively, you can select the burrow move Roach mutation and sneak 8-10 Roaches pass the two Primal armies if you want to spend more gas on Swarm Hosts. You need around fifteen Mutalisks to take out the Tyrannozor without any problem. The easiest way to get to it is by using Mutalisks to fly over the stream of Primal Zerg forces and kill the Tyrannozor. Halfway through the mission, a Tyrannozor will appear at the bottom half of the map. In order to survive easily, you should have three to four Spine Crawlers on every side, as well as around ten Spore Crawlers, with a small force to take care of any flyers that are trying to take you out.Ī note for the whole mission: some Swarm Queens to heal your units as well as Spine Crawlers will make you take close to no losses. If your defense is too weak, you will fall fast. The last four to five minutes is an ongoing onslaught of enemies. There is rock there, but planting some spine crawlers there before the attack starts will make it very easy to defend it. Killing it rewards Kerrigan with one level.įor the latter part of the game, you will be attacked from the bottom as well as the sides. About halfway through the mission, a Tyrannozor will appear. Some waves in and you will get an ability that allows you to summon flying Locusts from the Primordial Spawning pool that attacks anything that tries to attack your main base. You can defend these attacks in many ways: with a few Swarm Queens, some Mutalisks, or by building two extra Spore Crawlers on each side. Later on, waves will include some flyers coming in from the side. You can get by with just Swarm Hosts for the first few waves. They will alternate between which side they attack. Shortly after this, you will be attacked by a new Primal Zerg leader. First, you will only be attacked by Brakk's old forces. You only need to defend your base to complete this mission. It is not needed to take it, but it allows you to mass more units. You might notice how there is an expansion to the right of your base. We start off Heart of Swarm in some sort of facility with Kerrigan in her newly changed human form were she is being tested on.
You will not be able to use Kerrigan for the rest of this mission. StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm will put fans of the series back into action continuing it’s focus on the story of the Zerg and following Sarah Kerrigan as she reclaims her thrown as the Queen of Blades.
A cut scene will show how Kerrigan puts herself inside a chrysalis. Follow the road up to the Primordial Spawning Pool. The timing is becoming more and more pop. The mission starts with a small skirmish that shows how Swarm Hosts work. In this tutorial video we are taking a closer look at a 2-Base timing attack with Swarmhosts and Queens vs. You can use the Swarm Host starting from this mission.
