Swarm Host without a doubt looks like the weakest new unit. I just see them die without doing anything.


If you park in front of your opponents base with them and stick roaches or hydras on them to guard, they are actually really hard to deal with especially as protoss


As protoss storm is going to be a great counter to them. Storm can almost 1 shot them unless I am mistaken so I imagine that'll be a better counter then going colossi.

But even then once toss gets 4+ colossi with a good stalker/sentry support they can negate swarmhosts with good FF usage and then kill them with the colossi and detectors (they now have multiple ways to detect unless again I am mistaken). With proper support as toss stalker/sentry/colossi with a couple observers is a great counter ^^.


The problem is when they show up and you have 0 or 1 colossus and range isn't done or something. But that could jsut be because I'm bad I guess.

Not just when they arrive before range or any good number of collosi. But Good zergs who have gotten used to using swarm hosts pair them with lings/roaches to support and overseers/corrupters(Or sometimes queens/infesters) to snipe observers. Keeping swarm hosts at a good distance means you have to suicide your collosi in to try and snipe them off then you just get over run with lings.

So far the best way I've had dealing with them is a couple of tempest and constantly pumping observers from Robo (Corrupters snipe them really quickly so you need to make lots lol) to slowly pick at the numbers/ constantly force zerg to re position and hopefully catch them that way.

Quick thought:

Terrans NEED to able to target widow mines. Otherwise it's just LUCK whether a big hit is scored. Just let the T set a rally point with a dot at the end meaning "boom zone." Having those widow mines hit gas drones was bothersome.

2 base swarm host isn't really good. If you cant support them properly with hydra/roach or nydus/spines/queens its not really effective.

4 of them with no support, and they still did some damage. Imagine 10 with a pile of roaches or hydras on top of them

Question... can you use a viper to pull a mothership core that is recalling away from the army before the recall so that only the mother ship core ends up getting recalled?
