Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 788
Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 788

There are 3 strategies i can think of. First one, the one i use, is mass ultralisks. It is easy, and doesn't require micro. Second one is mass broodlord, but you need the mutation for that. Just as easy, if not a bit easier. Third one is mass zerglings, but you need to be playing on lower difficulty for that.

Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 789
Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 789

Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 794
Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 794

If you get attacked by any army with helbats, get your zerglings back and use whatever else you have to destroy the helbats and then the zerglings will be okay to join in.

Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 810

Two battlecruisers should attack you. It might be a bit hard fending them off with kerrigan only, but if you kite them and use your abilities it should be easy enough.

Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Walkthrough - Starcraft 2-Heart-of-the-Swarm 811
