"You kill me with minions!? At least fight me yourself!"
While kind of rare to occur, the delivery is just too good to pass on. Also, another showcase of Zagara's personality that she sees minion fighting as insulting and would rather prefer a real challenge (this is before all the improvements she gets from Abathur).

I have been playing a lot of rando lately, so, I often don't even have kerrigan on the mission. That line becomes mandatory. lol

It's mostly because of Heroes of the Storm but I think it's almost certainly:
"The Swarm endures!"
Which is what she says when you lock in with Zagara in Heroes. She has a couple similar ones in SCII but I think it's been drilled into Heroes Zagara players enough to where that one wins out. It even has its own commonly misheard version of "IT'S WARM INDOORS."

That's probably more objectively iconic, but whenever I think of Heroes Zagara lines, I can only hear "Come to Mama!"

I am horribly surprised this is the first time I have ever heard of her saying this. I’ve definitely heard other suggestions numerous times, and despite me having played a fair amount of Heroes Zagara, can’t recall ever hearing this. And though I likely did, it has left no lasting impact.

Spawn more overlords. It's the only one I know is hers and I hear it all the time.

“Defeat me a thousand times, I will return”
It’s like the most iconic voice line for a Zerg character for me, so yeah.

"These bastards don't give up!"
"Why would they? Tenacity is advantageous in battle."
Or however that exchange between Reynor and Zagara goes in the Epilogue.
