    The zerg can produce units at an incredibly fast rate and if your army falls in one battle you can just build another one in seconds, way before your opponent can rebuilt hes own, as long as you got the resourses.

    As a basic run down: The Protoss have few, expensive, powerful units with lots of special abilities. Protoss need to rely on conservative tactics: actively avoiding losses, relying on terrain etc. The Zerg use vast numbers of cheap, disposable units. Zerg need to rely on stealth and subterfuge. Try both, and Terran too. The differences between all three factions are too long to list. Until you try out each one yourself, you'll never know which one you're suited to.

    not quite as big, and the zerg more adapt pre-existing biological lifeforms to serve as troops rather than create whole new lifeforms marly based of pre-existing DNA. for example for the Tyranids created the Zoanthrope out of Eldar DNA to act as living phonic siege weapon. where as if the zerg where to get their claws on some eldar, they would repurpose their form and being into something else. perhaps some kind of very fast and agile phonic support form. maybe as some sort of commando lifeform. something that can strike and fast while sowing confusion through enemy ranks with mental powers or attacks. a more mobile version of a queen perhaps. also zerg are purely organic as apposed to tech-no organic. and also they tend to ack in both their biology and function more like a bacteria or virus. also also they have a far quicker and more resilient regeneration

    the great thing about them is that they can out mass any army but they die very fast and zergs has the most casualties then any other (takes one drone just to make a building) and unlike the other races they can only spawn by one building the hive thats a building to start with and where minerals are collected, making other buildings just unlocks more to spawn at the hives
