The stank is a variant strain of the ultralisk. During the Second Great War, a number of them were spawned on Meinhoff.

	This article or section contains information derived from Co-op Missions, and should not be considered part of the official StarCraft storyline.

Later, they appeared on a fringe Terran Dominion colony of Chazington, and allied commanders were called in to destroy them.

Game Unit

Left 2 Die

The stank appears in the map Left 2 Die as a zerg NPC unit. It has a boss bar when appears. Every once in a while it will do an extra powerful attack that makes a small hole in the ground and damages everything around it. The hit points increase according to the selected difficulty (ranging from 2000 on casual to 5000 on brutal).

On "Night 2 Die" mode, the stank gains hit points with each appearance.

It has its own portrait in the map editor but uses the ultralisk portrait in-game. A Stank portrait is available for completing the Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em achievement.

Co-op Missions

Stanks appear as boss characters on the Dead of Night mission of Co-op Missions. They are boss infested, and have high hit points. Stanks are immune to the day time cycle of the map and deal heavy damage to structures.

Trivia

As Left 2 Die is based on Left 4 Dead, so too is the stank likely based on the Tank.
