Swarm host is in a fine spot. They are unbelievably frustrating to play against as a non pro player, a well executed swarm host strategy leaves me wanting to not play the game. It's best it exists in the state it does now so the game is more fun, while allowing the unit to function in niche situations. The Swarm Host is a Zerg siege unit that requires an Infestation Pit. It attacks in the form of spawning a pair of Locusts with an activated ability. The Locusts are slow-moving ground-to-ground units with a timed life that nonetheless extend the range of the Swarm Host beyond that of any other unit. Although the Locusts spawn as flying units, they are unable to attack in the air. They are.
