Larva (StarCraft II)

If multiple hatcheries are selected, pressing the "S" hotkey will select all of the available larvae at all the selected hatcheries. The player must press a hotkey (or select a morph icon) once for each unit they wish to build.

Abilities

 * Mutate
 * A larva can produce a large variety of units: drone, overlord, zergling, roach, corruptor, mutalisk, hydralisk, swarm host, viper, infestor, and ultralisk.
 * However, there are some zerg units that are not directly produced by the morphing of larvae: queen, baneling, overseer, brood lord, lurker, ravager as well as spawned units such as broodlings, changelings, locusts, and infested terrans.

Strategies
The ability to spawn additional larvae can indirectly help the zerg economy, as this enables them to produce a high number of drones (or a high number of combat units, or a mix of both).

Development
The larva only underwent a single revision during development, in order to make it resemble the portrait model.
