But just think of all the fun perks, enhancements and general grievances Grimm can provide! For the Swarm! Don't have to go anywhere near Vale or Beacon or wherever the crazies are.

Would the Zerg get anything from the Grimm though? I'll be the first to say I know next to nothing about RWBY, but if a thing disintegrates into smoke upon death would anything be gained from trying to examine it until death? Would infestation work?

why does people seem hell bend on having Zerg eat the Grimm
i do not get this weird craving you people have
*sighs* And that's exactly why. So many people seem to hump it like they did Worm, Twilight, and Hunger Games. As in, so many that, just by crossovers I'm familiar with the majority of Worm, and I haven't read a single page of it. And why do they, one may ask. Because, apparently it's all emotional, angsty, and dramatic. If I wanted to purview dramatic drama I'd watch Lost. Since I don't, like to indulge drama or watch Lost, I don't particularly appreciate dramatic drama pieces that seem to hand out idiot balls as a casting prerequisite for being a main or even secondary character that holds screen time.
The TL;DC version. If a series' fan fiction is more than three quarters fix it fics, then idiot ball casting is in effect, and therefore does not suffice to be read, watched, or paid attention to. Much less suffer to be added as crossover material.

Have you ever heard "Don't knock it until you try it"? It's pretty applicable here. I'm not telling you to read Worm- it's not for everyone, it's a significant time investment, whatever. You don't exactly have room to criticize it, though, if you haven't read it.

Not RWBY.
I'm going off that one lineup I posted ages ago.
Lore was written on a napkin but that's alright. That's fine.
... Okay I'll stop teasing. For those of you who can't resist spoilers it's

Oh god, Infested-by-nanotech fighting Infested-by-virus ALONE will make that a clusterfuck. Add in all the shit Corpus and Grineer have, maybe the Sentients, and definitely the Tenno (Space Mom optional) and you have a system that the Zerg at their peak could barely be noticed in.

can't like 2/3 of the setting match you pretty much unit for unit in terms of troops? Also, would the overmind's psi bullshit be able to tap into the void?

If the author rules that the Tenno-void is the same as the Nerazim-void, then doing that is not a good idea. A facepunch with assloads of Void is what killed the original Overmind, Generic-SI won't mess with any extradimensional Void things until verifying that it won't be able to kill them.
This will lead to many confused Tenno, as every time they get close to Generic-SI, Generic-SI will run or panic, no matter how much they overpower the Tenno by.

Ironically enough, RWBY was the first thing that came to mind when you said "the lore was written on a napkin".
Map of Remnant was done on a napkin with ketchup or something along those lines... Kek.

Anyways. Update would have been today but I had thanksgiving dinner tonight. It was super awkward.
Might make it tomorrow. Might even cut out a few story segments. Hrm. Hrmmmmm...

Let's see what Generic SI can get from these setting, and how dangerous they are in comparison.
Metroid, remember they are intergalactic FTL level and would likely curbstomp the Starcraft Verse, the best bet is for a friendly Chozo to come across the SI on some remote planet really early on or to have the SI fight isolated and stranded groups of Space Pirate and Larval stage Metroids and have the Federation show up part way through, this is a verse you don't want to end up being called the villain in.
Mass Effect, you could probably pick up a sapient race or two there, the Krogan and the Rachni, you may also be able to pick up the Quarians and Vorch if you can deal with them, other than that consume a few Asari (try to get an Ardat-Yakshi) for Biotics, Salarians for their extreme thought speed and Vorcha for their active adaptation, and that's just the sapient species, Pyjack live everywhere and thresher maws seem to be good targets, the Reapers might be a bit of a problem but you should be able to deal with them.
Avatar, depending on which one you go to, fantasy or sci-fi, both have things you could get, neither of which I'm going to go into and the only things that can threaten you are a fully united planet early on for fantasy Avatar or the human military machine in the sci-fi verse.
Pacific Rim, Eating the masters which made the Kaiju and stealing their knowledge is your primary goal but that will be dangerous, remember they also have a hive mind which you need to be careful of.
Star Wars has a whole lot of things you could get in the expanded universe, just be careful because you don't want to fight any of the pan-galactic regimes early on.
Stargate has a few useful species you could eat like those invisible lizard things (at least I think they are lizards) and isn't actually all that dangerous early on.
NGE is a build up fast verse.
Star Trek is actually kinda dangerous but it also has some fun things.
Eh...
Generic-SI'd probably have... Issues... with polities like the Romulan Star Empire. Or the Cardassians. Or the Dominion, or the Borg. Especially the Borg.
Surprisingly at this point in time Generic-SI wouldn't have many issues with the Federation so that's... Hrm.
I might have to rewrite some of my notes.
The federation is OK, wouldn't mind living there, but their law of non-interference is really weird.

Yeh, I kinda wanna see one of these SI Multicrosses show up, see how seriously the Feds take the prime directive and then say "Screw that, Imma help the primitives."

Well, the nice thing about it is, because he's a Zerg, there's really nothing he can do in terms of uplifting folks. Most of the typical SI doors are closed to him, so we get to see him have to work around issues that nobody else does.

Aehm, he can offer a purpose beyond selfish egotism, agelessness and good health insurance.

Point taken. Personally, I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the two SI stories I'm writing. One is snippits with a semi-loose canon to them that I intend to turn into a stomp-by-outside-context of a bunch of series and the other is a linear Commander SI that I intended to be nerfed to hell, but then realized that the restriction I used meant precisely nothing against the Imperium's bottom and top tech.
More on topic with this story, and less self-advertising than my sig(comments, plz, it's lonely), I look forwards to Generic-SI borking a setting's canon with his mere presence. Not even doing anything, just showing up derails canon.

....how?
Let's say you're standing in your yard (or in front of your apartment, if you rent), and a giant space meatball descends in front of you. It waves tentacles in friendly greeting.
What... exactly... does this do for you? I'm not sure how you're getting a grand purpose out of 'flying meatball'.
Yeah- Commanders make a neat base for a story, but by their nature they just overpower everything wayyyy too quickly for most storytelling tools to survive. The four-way Mass Effect silliness is going through that right now; the only thing that lets any antagonists survive is bad philosophy
