Char 2: Fire in the Sky
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 455](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-455-small.webp)
This is a tricky, and could be a hard, mission. Start off by making drones.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 456](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-456-small.webp)
Goal of the mission is to use the scourge nests by placing a creep tumor right next to them.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 457](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-457-small.webp)
If you have completed the 2 other planets before this mission, your strategy will be to have 2 queens to make creep tumors and mass zerglings.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 458](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-458-small.webp)
I recommend not putting a creep tumor right away, wait for the Gorgon to be a bit closer.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 459](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-459-small.webp)
If Char is your first planet, then your strategy would be to get queens and zerglings. Priority would be Upgrades->Queens->Zerglings.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 460](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-460-small.webp)
Speaking about upgrades, start your lair and 2 evolution chambers as soon as you can.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 461](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-461-small.webp)
The terran will send squads to attack you from time to time. I would recommend making a few spine crawlers for defence.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 462](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-462-small.webp)
This here is a defiler corpse.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 463](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-463-small.webp)
Use it to gain a level.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 464](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-464-small.webp)
Make sure you make as many creep tumors as you can, they are the most crucial thing so far.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 465](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-465-small.webp)
Every time you activate a scourge nest, a gorgon dies.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 466](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-466-small.webp)
If you're using the mass zergling strategy, make a 3rd hatchery.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 467](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-467-small.webp)
If you kill the firebats that are shooting at the air...
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 468](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-468-small.webp)
...you will gain small reinforcements.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 469](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-469-small.webp)
Going to the south, you will find a few terran buildings with minerals behind them.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 470](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-470-small.webp)
And a bit to the right is a command center with minerals and gas.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 471](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-471-small.webp)
Explore everywhere, since you will find mineral and gas caches everywhere.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 472](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-472-small.webp)
Remember to spread creep, otherwise you will surely lose.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 473](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-473-small.webp)
Continue pushing forward to gain access to more scourge nests.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 474](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-474-small.webp)
The next defiler remains are to the north-east.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 475](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-475-small.webp)
Also, be careful of enemy attacks. I didn't put any spine crawlers and now i'm suffering the consequences.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 476](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-476-small.webp)
The last defiler remains are far to the south east.
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 477](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-477-small.webp)
If you followed the strategy properly...
![Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 478](starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-478-small.webp)
...you should win easily.
