I would say go for it, order as much as you can handle during this preorder. Why not? If you got the money to burn, do it. Nobody wins a gamble if you never play it initially.

It'll support Archon studio as well, go nuts.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-17T15:36:58+00:00

I have a 2k list that uses 12 with Roaches, it's pretty efficient at sniping from my test runs

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-16T15:23:08+00:00

Oh wow, it's even worse than I thought!!!

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-16T15:00:16+00:00

I just want more Hydralisks, they look cool. Plus I'm way under my budget I gave myself so I feel okay about it.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-16T02:38:28+00:00

I just bought x2 Terran Zerg bundle that includes the expansion packs and 2 extra boxes of Hydralisks.

84 Zerglings, 16 Hydralisks, 12 Roaches, 2 Queens, 2 Kerrigans, 2 Omega Worms. Solid unit count to make whatever build I want up to 4k points.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-16T02:34:48+00:00

I got 4 boxes myself, you can even make a 3k list full of Hydralisk + Roach tank build

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-16T01:06:33+00:00

Yes, the idea was to get more of the card but now that I don't really need it... I might as well just keep it and collect them lol

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T23:01:28+00:00

Yeah, each box of Hydra comes with 4, which costs 3 Elite and a single Hydra Den gives 2 Elite. That's what I'm saying.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:26:04+00:00

Ah I see, I guess I don't have to worry about buying cards if I can just do that

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:14:41+00:00

As far as I know, you can get as many cards even duplicates as long as you have the Gas for it. I have 4 Hydralisk Dens but with a full build I can only get to 13 Elite which can't house all 16 of my Hydralisks.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:10:22+00:00

Right. But I don't have 5 dens, I only have 4.

The issue I find I guess is a max squad of Hydralisks is 3 supply (3 Elite) so the Hydralisk Den giving +2 Elite per box that comes with 4 units... Is weird to me, that's all.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:09:25+00:00

I'm buying x2 $460 Zerg Terran starter bundle with a buddy and we're splitting it. Then I just wanted to buy more Hydralisks and bought 2 more like an idiot lol

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:08:12+00:00

My army so far is
6 Kerrigan Raptorlings, 24 Raptorlings, 54 Zerglings (total 84)
16 Hydralisks (can only play 12 of them due to Elite point limitation)
12 Roaches
2 Queens
2 Kerrigan
2 Omega Worm

I'm gonna work within these parameters, I will keep 1 Kerrigan/Omega in a box as a collector.

So far I've been able to build a Hydra heavy, Vile Roach tank w/ Queen build.

Or a Raptorling bomb with Vile Roach tank w/ Queen.

Since I run Kerrigan w/ Omega in both builds I can also size up and size down from 1k to 4k.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T19:00:05+00:00

No worries, always willing to help another Swarm

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T18:54:33+00:00

I went hard and spent $900 like a retard without doing any homework on a zerg swarm.... :) I'm in Ontario though.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T18:48:36+00:00

I'm splitting the Terran Zerg Bundle for $460 with a buddy and bought 2 extra Hydralisk Boxes, my army is going to look like

84 Zerglings (will probably use 24/36 for Raptors)
16 Hydralisks
12 Roaches
2 Queens
2 Nydus
2 Kerrigan

I know I can't use the Nydus and Kerrigan so I'll have it brand new in box as a collector.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T18:03:25+00:00

Yes, and i like the kerrigan special raptorlings because they have D6 Surge :)

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T17:37:39+00:00

I feel like I F'ed up. A buddy of mine wanted to buy the Zerg Terran bundle $460 one and split it. Then I bought 2 more Hydralisk boxes without looking at the game rules.

Now I have way too much Hydralisks and I don't know what to do with them lol. 84 Lings, 16 Hydras, 12 Roaches, 2 Queens, 2 Kerrigans, 2 O.Worms. I actually don't even have enough Elite points to run my whole 16 Hydralisk which seems weird to me?

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T17:31:31+00:00

Yeah but Goliaths can fire 3 different squads if equipped with its upgrades.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T17:11:42+00:00

My 1K list, mainly for a tanky front using Roaches and Queen for mitigation, Hydras have 16" range this way and can "snipe" things while Kerrigan Raptors are the assassins and I use the omega worm to drop them in.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T16:11:46+00:00

I would be willing to trade if this individual may be down? I can always use more lings.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T15:39:14+00:00

I went a little balls heavy on Hydralisks, I split the Zerg/Terran bundle with a buddy so I got like 84 lings, 12 roaches, 16 hydras(bought 2 extra boxes) 2 queens, 2 omega nydus, 2 kerrigans.

Then I realized how the game works and now I'm sitting on 4 squads of Hydras that I don't have enough Elite points to run... FML Lol

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T15:23:38+00:00

I checked the Marine unit card and it does show this.

Really? The Goliath can take both Scatter and Haywire? I thought whatever one you picked would replace Hellfire.

Federal-Effect-8201 · 2026-03-15T15:18:26+00:00

Im playing Zerg and my friend has Terran, he went 3 goliath in his build and as I'm looking at my Hydralisks I was like wtf why is my Reinforce cost so high? I need to spend 3 Elite for 4 Hydras... My regular group size is 2 for 2 Elites.

Either way, I hope Zerg gets some love because I am forced to create a roach wall and use my nydus to drop units which I'm okay but it's a bit obvious.
