Sarah Kerrigan's unit underwent numerous changes during the development of StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm.
Kerrigan could also increase her health, damage, armor and energy through upgrades unlocked by completing bonus objectives.[1][2]
By May 2011, Kerrigan had four skill sets, although not all had been developed as of then. Other potential skill sets revolved around defenses, comboing with air units, stealth and "roach-burrow supporting Kerrigan".[3]
Kerrigan's appearance changes during development
At some point Kerrigan's game unit appearance evolved as she progressed through the campaign.[4]
