A swarmling.

The swarmling is a prolific strain of zergling; they are produced in batches of 3, rather than 2,[1] due to performing an additional embryo split while in the egg sac.[2] They also mutate faster than the zergling, allowing the player to quickly amass a large army.[3]

Swarmlings can be developed when a queen on a remote world, which has developed them, offers herself to Sarah Kerrigan.[4]

Game UnitEdit

Swarmlings are a campaign-exclusive unit to Heart of the Swarm, acting as an alternative to the raptor.[2] The third zergling comes at no extra cost, besides a half a point of control, like a normal zergling.[5] It only takes one second for a swarmling to be produced.[6]
