swarmer
One joining masses
A swarmer is something that swarms—moves in a large, coordinated mass.
The term appears in contexts from biology to gaming: bees that leave a hive to establish a new colony, boxing styles emphasizing relentless forward pressure, or video game enemies that attack in overwhelming numbers.
The swarmers overwhelmed our defenses before we could reload.
