Later, they appeared on a fringe Terran Dominion colony of Chazington, and allied commanders were called in to destroy them.^[2]

Game Unit

Left 2 Die

The stank appears in the map Left 2 Die as a zerg NPC unit. It has a boss bar when appears. Every once in a while it will do an extra powerful attack that makes a small hole in the ground and damages everything around it. The hit points increase according to the selected difficulty (ranging from 2000 on casual to 5000 on brutal).^[1]

On "Night 2 Die" mode, the stank gains hit points with each appearance.

It has its own portrait in the map editor but uses the ultralisk portrait in-game. A Stank portrait is available for completing the Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em achievement.^[1]

Co-op Missions

Stanks appear as boss characters on the Dead of Night mission of Co-op Missions. They are boss infested, and have high hit points. Stanks are immune to the day time cycle of the map and deal heavy damage to structures.^[2]
