History Funny / StarcraftIIHeartOfTheSwarm

* Several scenes show Kerrigan accompanied by a zergling with a distinctive broken horn, giving the amusing imression that this individual is a favorite pet of hers.

--->'''Dehaka''': I follow for essence!
--->'''Zagara''': You must learn ''obedience'', primal!
--->'''Dehaka''': Yes, come to me. I will collect ''your'' essence now.
--->'''Kerrigan''': ENOUGH! Zagara, do not speak for me. Dehaka, do not collect ''my'' Swarm.

* As awesome and as cathartic as The Reckoning is for Raynor and Kerrigan, it's a bit funny how Raynor hurls Mengsk to the ground and pulls out his revolver, ready for his long-awaited revenge... until he sees how ''royally pissed off'' Kerrigan is at Mengsk, and [[OhCrap makes the wise decision to back off and leave him to her.]]

* During "Death From Above" if the player deliberately stalls in destroying the power links, an annoyed Kerrigan will yell at them: "What are you doing?!!"

** And earlier in the section, a patrolling Viking pilot asks "What are these ugly things?" and promptly transforms to ground mode. ***[[SuicidalOverconfidence In front of three huge, armored, elephant-like creatures whose blades are larger than his mech]]***. Maybe the dream sequence wasn't so inaccurate after all.

** [[{{CringeComedy}} Dear God!]]

-->'''Raynor:''' What can I say? Old habits die hard.
*** For those who do not know the significance. Back in Starcraft 1, Kerrigan calls him a pig after she psychically realizes Jim is checking out her legs. Many years later and the above dialogues indicate his preferences have not changed.

** And earlier in the section, a patrolling Viking pilot asks "What are these ugly things?" and promptly transforms to ground mode. [[SuicidalOverconfidence In front of three death machines whose]] '''[[SuicidalOverconfidence blades]]''' [[SuicidalOverconfidence are larger than his mech]]. Maybe the dream sequence wasn't so inaccurate after all.

* Critters are back with humor. The ursadak calf's description when you hover the cursor over its wireform reads "benign creature that sautees well with butter".

* Said zerglings come into play later [[spoiler:when the pair has to escape through said labs and run into several waves of the test run zerglings on the way out]].

* In the second mission, Raynor and Kerrigan comment that [[spoiler:them working together to fight off the Dominion is just like old times]].

* Nova's small contribution to the story is not funny by itself but [[spoiler: she did steal Kerrigan's man right from under her nose, which is a little detail the shippers and fanfic writers will probably have a ball with.]]
* When you fight [[spoiler:the Primal Zerg]], they have a number of units that look and act nearly identically to your own, which most players will shrug and chalk up to GameplayAndStorySegregation to make the devs' lives easier. Actually, [[spoiler:the Primal Zerg]] ''stole'' the designs, despite you only being on the planet for a day at this point. Abathur is [[BerserkButton hilariously pissed]].
-->'''Abathur''': [[spoiler:Primal zerg.]] Unacceptable. [[GottaKillThemAll Must be wiped clean. No trace left.]] [[spoiler:Destroy primal zerg.]]

-->'''Abathur''': Saw ranged [[spoiler:primal Zerg]] creatures on battlefield? Based on hydralisk! [[spoiler:Primal zerg]] stole design from Swarm! Swarm on planet for hour, days, ''already'' being replicated!

** Any and all interactions between Matt Horner and [[spoiler:Mira Han. Especially when he realizes they need her again]].

** When you free [[spoiler: Colonel Orlan]] to help you:
-->[[spoiler:'''Orlan''']]: You people are all CRAZY! Why would I help you?\\

[[spoiler:'''Orlan''']]: ({{Beat}}) [[AnythingButThat Tell me what you need....]]

-->'''[[spoiler:Half-Human]]Kerrigan''': [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall Keep clicking]]… I'm reloading.
-->'''[[spoiler:Primal]] Kerrigan''': I've always looked better in purple.
-->'''[[spoiler:Primal]] Kerrigan''': You should get to know my primal side *zerg hissing noise*.

-->'''[[spoiler:Stukov]]''': Let's recap. I was betrayed and killed, shot into space, [[spoiler:captured by the zerg, resurrected and infested, cured, given to Moebius to research the protoss cure, and was instead experimented on as the cure slowly failed]]. Everyone up to speed? Good.

** When Abathur admits to Kerrigan his concerns about [[spoiler:Stukov's infestation]], he explains that its complexity is second only to [[spoiler:Kerrigan's Primal transformation]], yet appears to have been specifically engineered in a way Abathur cannot duplicate. Kerrigan correctly guesses Abathur dislikes the idea of someone being better at genetics than him, and Abathur declares that such an enemy would be impossible to defeat and suggests they surrender and submit to them. Kerrigan, of course, shoots this idea down on the spot.

* [[spoiler:Stukov]]'s line if you accidentally get him killed:
--->'''[[spoiler:Stukov]]''' (sounding tired and annoyed): [[BackFromTheDead Not]] [[DeathIsCheap again]]...

* The entire mission to [[spoiler:rescue Jim Raynor]] is full of laughs, including BlackComedy and the Easter eggs.

--> ([[spoiler:After Kerrigan enters the prison ship]])

-->'''Abathur''': Saw ranged primal Zerg creatures on battlefield? Based on hydralisk! Primal zerg stole design from Swarm! Swarm on planet for hour, days, ''already'' being replicated!

* [[RuleOfThree Have we mentioned that the Zerglings are allergic to ''lemon juice'' of all things.]]
** Which is an epic BrickJoke from ''Wings of Liberty''.

* Watch the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG_3R9BoVvg Heart of the Swarm trailer]] and at about 1:20 see Kerrigan load her rifle and point it at her enemy with a ridiculously cute face, with her own voice saying in the background "The killing will never stop until Mengsk is dead!"

* In one conversation, Zagara tells Kerrigan she feels pity towards the Terrans and their lack of a HiveMind, that they must feel alone in their minds, so she wants to help them… ''[[BlueAndOrangeMorality by assimilating them into the Swarm]]''. You can clearly see she's being sincere and that [[ObliviouslyEvil she does not get what's wrong in her suggestion]].

* From the opening cinematic, as a massive swarm of Zerg are streaming through the city, one Viking pilot transforms his plane to mech mode ''right in front of an Ultralisk''! While there are other Vikings flying around, he's the only one who did that... and he barely gets to warm up his gatlings before the Ultralisk swats him aside like a gnat. Many fans have been asking themselves what in the world the Viking pilot thought he was doing. (It turns out to be a dream).

-->'''Adjuntant''': (when you don't select the drone) Testing. (beeping) No playback errors detected. Repeating instructions.
-->'''Adjuntant''': (when you still don't select the drone) Subject is unresponsive. Translating instructions into native language: (zerg sounds)
-->'''Adjuntant''': (when you ''still'' don't select the drone) Possible hardware failure. Testing audio response: [[MythologyGag Your sound card works perfectly]].
-->'''Adjuntant''': (when you '''still''' [[OverlyLongGag don't select the drone]]) The only thing you're testing is my patience.

'''Kerrigan:''' [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Yeah, I may have gone a little overboard...]]

-->'''Raynor:''' My hair's got more gray in it. \\

-->'''Mira''': Matthew, don't think I will make this easy on you. \\
'''Matt''': When have you ever made anything easy on me? \\

'''Matt:''' (walks into the camera range) ... hello, Mira. \\

** When you free [[spoiler:colonel Orlan]] to help you:

** The StopPokingMe quotes from the Hyperion has Matt noting he'll never play cards again... and quoting [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Zapp Brannigan.]]

* StopPokingMe quotes are back with a vengeance.
-->'''[[OneSceneWonder Niadra]]''': I won't treat MY larvae this way! It's all 'grow this' and 'annihilate the protoss that!'

-->'''[[spoiler:Half-Human]]Kerrigan''': [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall Keep clicking]]...I'm reloading.

--> "Subject, Abathur: ''obviously'' most useful part of swarm..." \\
"Must solve [[BrickJoke Zergling lemon-juice allergy]]!" \\

--> '''[[DefrostingIceQueen Kerrigan]]''': "You know, sometimes you're not so bad, Abathur".
--> '''Abathur''': "Unclear..."

--> '''Zagara''': ''[[ThisIsGonnaSuck *clearly not looking forward to the prospect*]]'' I will go...

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVHUvXPqWuE Hidden in the sound files are outtakes]] which are quite hilarious including Dehaka parroting Kerrigan’s lines from the cut scene where she thinks Jim has been killed off screen, Raynor saying “game over Darling” then asking about Legacy of the Void, and [[EvilutionaryBiologist Abathur]] rapping.

'''Horner:''' (Totally Deadpan) [[SophisticatedAsHell Sensors are picking up things we can jack.]]\\

* During the final Char mission, if Kerrigan get killed, Warfield boasts about he and his men having successfully slayed the Queen of Blade. Leading to this pearl when Kerrigan [[DeathIsCheap respawns]]:

-->'''Warfield''': Kerrigan... What does it take to kill you?

* In one conversation, Zagara tells Kerrigan she feels pity towards the Terrans and their lack of a HiveMind, that they must feel alone in their minds, so she wants to help them... ''[[BlueAndOrangeMorality by assimilating them into the Swarm]]''. You can clearly see she's being sincere and that [[ObliviouslyEvil she does not get what's wrong in her suggestion]].

Many fans have been asking themselves what in the world the Viking pilot thought he was doing.

* There are plenty of statues of [[CallBack Arcturus Mengsk]] still standing on Korhal that the Terrans may not have seen and destroyed yet. The Zerg have the opportunity to "vandalize" them.
