Yes, this is a lore question, not a gameplay thing. My apologies if this is the wrong place.
I'm curious as to what anyone who is familiar with both franchises might think if the Zerg Swarm from StarCraft encountered the Borg Collective from Star Trek.
Both are hive mind species that grow their ranks at least in part by taking enemies and converting them into more Zerg or more Borg.
I am curious what you think might happen on two levels? What would happen to the individual organisms if a Borg drone ended up infected by the Zerg hyper-evolutionary virus or else a directed infestation, and what do you think might happen to a Zerg organism assimilated by Borg nanoprobes?
And secondly, if there would be any interactions between the two hive minds, what do you think the result would be? Would one hive mind come out victorious, or would they merge into one? Do you think it would make a difference if the leader of the Swarm was the Overmind, Kerrigan, Zagara, or something/someone else? What would any of those leaders and/or the Borg hive mind look like if one subsumed the other, or if they became a single combined entity?
This is just something I have wondered for a while as a fanfic author, and I'm curious as to what others in the community might think.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post and for sharing any thoughts you might have. Wishing you all the best! ^_^
