The following section contains information from a previous version of StarCraft II which is no longer valid.

Creep was able to grow faster if a special ability was researched at the evolution chamber in March 2008.^[1]

• Toxic Creep
  • Ability Cost: 100 ^[2]
  • This ability enabled the queen to "poison" a small area of creep, injuring enemy units over that creep.^[3][4]

Creep used to cause damage to non-zerg buildings it came into contact with, and it might have opened up possibilities for new creep pushing strategies.^[5]

Non-zerg buildings used to take 3 damage per second^[6] and eventually would be destroyed.^[5] However, this was removed as it caused problems in allied games.^[7]
