Hunters vs Farmers is a test of survival and teamwork. As Hunters(dark templars) you must suppress your enemy, the farmers, and survive until the end. As a farmer(zergling) you must rise up against your suppressors and defeat them to claim victory. As a hunter use your abilities to seek and trap the farmers and use your resources to buy mercenaries to help you kill the farmers. As farmers gain income through larva and build defenses to protect you while you build up your army.
If you die as a hunter you will be re-spawned as an immortal, being much weaker than before, but able to still help search for the farmers and if one dies as a farmer they will be re-spawned in a random spawn point around the map, but beware dying means you lose your buildings and units. Game Play
