The Hyperion appears as a hero battlecruiser piloted by Jim Raynor in StarCraft. It appears as a controllable hero in the missions "The Trial of Tassadar" and "Eye of the Storm," and appears as an NPC hero in "Emperor's Fall." The Hyperion has a faster attack than normal battlecruisers and deals slightly more damage than them. It also has a large amount of HP, 850. The Hyperion is excellent at tanking damage in "Eye of the Storm", as it can be repaired to full health between battles. In "The Trial of Tassadar" though the player should be more cautious.
