The brutalisk is a variant strain of the ultralisk which resembles a cross between a zergling and a hydralisk.

During the Second Great War, one was present on Redstone III, and another on Tyrador VIII. The Terran Dominion captured a number of brutalisks—one was held at a bio-weapons lab orbiting Castanar while another two were at Skygeirr Station.

Game Unit

The brutalisk's unit profile

While powerful, brutalisks have a very slow movement rate. Fast-moving units easily dominate brutalisks by utilizing hit and run tactics. Alternately, powerful weapons such as siege tanks and battlecruisers make short work of brutalisks from afar. Every time they appear, brutalisks are optional research objectives that yield three points of zerg research in the Wings of Liberty campaign, and levels for Kerrigan in the Heart of the Swarm campaign.
