Zerg Lurker is a disaster in Survive The Disasters 2.
Description[]
Zerg Lurker appears to be buried underground. It will spawn in the middle of the map and play a sound effect, shortly before it starts attacking. The killing method Zerg Lurker makes use of consists in a wave of brown spikes that quickly rise towards the nearest players from the center. They will emerge from the ground in a sequence, being able to reach anywhere - ranging from close to extremely far spots of the map. Upon contact with the spikes, the player is instantly wiped out. Zerg Lurker will not attempt to attack players if they are higher than the maximum height limit its spikes reach.
Hyper Zerg Lurker[]
Zerg Lurker attacks at a much faster rate, while his spikes are slightly bigger in size and range.
Impossible Zerg Lurker[]
Zerg Lurker's spikes are extremely higher and can detect and hit players regardless of height positioning. Its spikes stay on the ground for an extra 10 seconds. Zerg Lurker's target system also changes: instead of targetting the closest survivors, it'll start attacking random players.

Quickly get to the highest possible structures, as the round starts. If there are no tall buildings remaining on the map, such as the classic ROBLOX house or a tower, constantly move and jump with a Fusion Coil, always making turns around Zerg Lurker.
