The leviathan is a massive airborne zerg breed. It is a class-10 zerg flyer and the largest in terran records[1]-even larger than a mothership.[2] They were used by the swarm as far back as the Great War,[3] and at least one was present at Char in the Second Great War.[1][4]
Game Unit
The leviathan is a special zerg unit in StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. It creates airborne eggs and cocoons to spawn mutalisks and brood lords, respectively. It attacks with tentacles and bile swarm projectiles, and launches scourges and bioplasmid globes dealing 500 damage. It may also put enemy units and buildings in biostasis, removing them from the fight.[1][4] It may be confronted by the player in the mission "Shatter the Sky"[1] or later in "All In",[4] depending on decisions made beforehand.
Abilities
Despite not having a detector passive icon, the leviathan is able to detect cloaked or burrowed units.
Fires a Bio-Plasmid Discharge at a single target unit, dealing 500 damage.
