Primal guardians are primal zerg creatures similar to guardians.

Game Unit

Heart of the Swarm

Primal guardians appear as enemies on Zerus. They also appear as part of Dehaka's pack during the attack on Korhal. Unlike their Swarm counterparts, primal guardians can attack air units.

Co-op Missions

Dehaka can use primal guardians in Co-op Missions.

Dehaka's primal guardians cannot attack air and have different stats than those found in the Heart of the Swarm campaign.

Upgrades

Primordial Fury

Each Primal guardian attack temporarily increases its attack speed by 10%. Can stack up to 50% increased attack speed.
