South Korea Invents “Heart of the Swarm” Technology to Counter North Korean Nuclear Threats


            After nuclear threats from Kim Jong-Un, the North Korean Head of State, South Korea has unveiled a military counter of its own.  “These nuclear threats do not come as a surprise to us.  After many years’ military stand-off with North Korea, it would’ve been foolish not to be upgrading and developing our surveillance systems and reconnaissance to its fullest” said one South Korean commander.  “That is why our Overseers are fully upgraded, ready to deploy changelings on a moment’s notice, and fully capable of detecting the North Korean Ghosts that would snipe our troops or call down a nuclear strike.  However, that is merely what we have been up to for the last few years.  With the development of our new “Heart of the Swarm” technology, our Zerg war machine should be more powerful than ever.”

            “Heart of the Swarm” is the latest addition to the Starcraft II trilogy, which added new units to each of the three races; the Protoss, an advanced alien race, the Terrans, the nomadic human race, and the Zerg, a completely biological race of mutated and evolved aliens.  As the North Koreans have been known to play as the Terrans almost every time, South Korea has come up with counters to the nuclear threats that Terran players naturally pose.  The South Korean commander, ‘zergrusher23’, had the following to say on stopping North Korean nuclear launches: “As South Korea has been a traditionally Zerg player, and as such, we have the following strategies in place to stop a nuclear launch.  As this conflict has already gone on for many decades, it’s a bit too late for an early Zergling rush; in fact they’ve already built all of the Ghost Academies they need to house the nuclear bombs.  However, their main strategy is to send in a Mass Marine force to shield the Ghost while he calls down the nuclear strike.  We believe that, with enough Banelings and a few overseers to sight the Ghost for us, we could take out the Ghost before he successfully guides the nuke to its target.  It would then be a few minutes before the next nuke could be produced by the North Koreans, giving us the window we need to overwhelm their base with a reserve horde of Zerglings and Hydralisks as backup.

            When asked about the nuclear standoff that occurs in the real world, zergrusher23 didn’t know what the press was referring to, and that whatever it was, this threat mustn’t be important enough to stop so many Koreans from watching and playing Starcraft.
