StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty/Zerg buildings
Most zerg structures need to be on creep to stay alive. If any structure is not on the creep they will slowly die. Only Hatcheries, Overlords and Creep Tumors can generate creep. A drone must morph into the structure which turns the unit into a structure and it cannot be reversed once the structure is complete.
Hatchery[edit]
Spawns larva, creates creep and the primary zerg structure.
Lair[edit]
The second level of the Hatchery. Allows Hydralisks, mutalisks, corruptors and Infestors to be created. Also allows overlords to morph into overseers and various upgrades to be evolved.
Hive[edit]
The final transformation of the Hatchery. It has high health and allows Ultralisk caverns to be created.
