The Zerg lady looks like someone who was fused with a spider in a transporter accident. She'd be split into her base creatures before Janeway's coffee got cold

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Janeway's pretty good at throwing shoes.
Okay, so I'll preface this by saying I don't know enough about StarTrek Voyager to give an educated opinion and I do know where I'm posting, but I am an avid Zerg fan so I'll throw in my 2 cents.
Now Starcraft obviously does not include the USS Voyager in its list of units, but it does have a large deep space exploration unit called the Battle cruiser. Battle cruisers are massive ships housing between 4000 and 7000 crew, dwarfing the 150 that the USS Voyager is reported to have on the wiki.
Kerrigan of course has access to all kinds of psyonic powers herself, but most importantly she controls the zerg as (mostly) mindless drones. Her most valuable unit in this exchange would likely be a Corrupter as they are powerful air to air combat units. Corrupters are relatively cheap and fast to produce meaning she can create dozens of them in just a small time, and it takes about 5 to destroy one battle cruiser.
The USS Voyager being smaller than a battle cruiser could be seen as a strength instead of a weakness when it comes to out maneuvering the relatively slow corrupters, but they have an ability (aptly named Corruption) that allows them to lock a unit in place, unable to move, completely nullifying any benefit it would recieve from maneuverability.
One thing I would say in favor of the USS Voyager in this fight is range. Corrupters attack by spitting some kind of acidic goo at the target which in space wouldn't necessarily effect the range, but it would have a travel time. Because of this, a kiting patten of dodging shots and staying far away, while returning accurate at distance laser fire would likely be a winning strategy as long as they could keep it up.
All in all I guess what I'm trying to say is I think this fight would be a lot closer than some commenter are saying, and this was very fun to think about :)
TLDR : If Janeway stays far away, she could win, if the zerg catch up to her, she will lose (imo)
Well, one would have to first think of an elaborate Voyagery backstory on how they get to be adversaries.
Prob like a mind-erasing holo-deck mishap where they think one is the daughter and the other one the mom, they live on a farming planet where a war breaks out & the daughters boytoy is on the opposing side so now they will inevitably face each other in battle.
Then the Borg queen boards Voyager, doesn't find the simulation as amusing as the crew (which watch it as a reality show non-stop & perform none of their regular duties), assimilates the ship entirely but gets poisoned by all the residual coffee particles on board and dies.
The sim on holodeck continues uninterrupted.
Seven of Nine starts drinking coffee.
Pattern buffer go BRRRRRRRR
My money is on Janeway.
Now let's pit the Deadlock Janeways, Mimetic Janeway, and future Janeway in a cage match.
Mimetic Janeway has zero fucks to give and a short fuse. Best if she acts first.
Tell her Ensign McEnsignface will ultimately have command of her ship, and that might put her on the off-foot.
It would only be possible for Admiral Janeway with more than one fleet coordinating for the Zerg to be defeated. They aren't going to tend to attack with one ship at a time like the Borg.
Plot twist: both fleets consist exclusively of time travel clones of Voyager
With, or without coffee?
Please clarify: is there coffee inside the Zerg?
Oh hell, we all know the outcome of this match: if there's no coffee then Janeway just slaughters them all out of spite. Either way, this Zerg rush is over before it began (presumably with her endless supply of, what was it, something like negative 100 proton torpedos?:-P).
Edit: plot armor, the most destructive thing in the universe bar none:-D.
With coffee: Janeway wins from pure efficiency
Without coffee: Janeway wins from pure spite
Unless she's one of those... other Janeways, but we don't talk about them, no we don't Bruno...
We don't talk about "Other Janeway"
Jane the other way, even.
It's like those choose-your-own adventure stories. Except in this one the only choice was to have glanced at it or not, cause after that it's out of your control. And the title is:
