    I keep seeing people making suggestions like this - is it some kind of meme?

    My only suggestion to add is to build a couple Vikings after your Medivacs (maybe a couple before).

    In addition to hunting down Overlords, you'll eventually need them if the Zerg player gets Brood Lords.

    Two words, NYDUS WORM.

    On a map like scrap station I don't even really bother going for their choke wall, its much more effective to just move your overlord to the back of the base and at the veryyyyy verryyy back of their base is the perfect spot to drop a worm and get some zerglings/roaches/hydras right into their SCVs, depriving them of their defensive advantage. Make sure you get the speed upgrade for your lings, it makes a huge diffrence.GLHF.

    Oh I can do that too.

    1. Build Spawning Pool, Baneling Nest and Roach Warren
    2. Make mass Roaches and Zerglings
    3. Turn ALL of your Zerglings to Banelings
    4. ????

    A few suggestions from me to you for fighting the evil Terran.

    Try to fast expansion early and late pool. Make sure you do some scouting with a drone to make sure there is no early or proxy barracks. In most maps it is very easy to fast expand with minimal risk (Unless you are across from each other on a 4p map then you just hope he does not scout you out. Which is why we don't send the ovie.)

    Late pool essentially means 12-16+ pool. Right after pool you get a hatchery. After the hatchery is built spend the rest of your minerals on drones/queens. The reason why I say queens is because they are good defense against early air cheese and because you should have 2. One for your expo and one for your main. Make sure to get a couple lings once your pool is done too, to defend your FE.


    Once your FE is done you should maynard it a bit and build more drones. Get a spine crawler or two for any rush the terran might pull off. You should suicide an ovie just to check his base and see what he's going. Mass lings and banelings are quite effective against Terran early game. If you just mass lings you can make a transition to mutas. If not Hydras are always a good choice with infestors.

    If the Terran goes MMM you should mass hydras and get infestors. Late game Ultralisks are a good choice against MMM. Brood lords are okay too but if you get Bro lords you force the Terran to get Vikings which really change up the game for you as he will have better mobility than you.

    If the Terran goes early air cheese (we see this with the suicide ovie). Get more queens at your main and expo. Two queens can easily take down the same number ,if not more, of banshees in equal cost. Queens can also transfusion each other so you can transfusion the queen being focused (usually the one with the most energy).

    If the Terran goes mech army (hellions, siege tanks, thors and marauders). You need to go hydras, roach and lings. It is essential that you upgrade missile attacks and armor all the while getting infestors for those pesky thors. Have infestors Neural parasite the thors and use the cannon on other thors or tanks. Roach are there to absorb damage while hydras actually deal damage. Lings should have some morphed into banelings and send them in a flank to destroy hellions he might still have.

    Don't think I missed anything. If the Terran decides to fast expand to counter your fast expansion; just expand into another position. Preferably the high yield. (So you will have 3 expansions while he is holding two).

    Generally when i fight T, its comes down to, does my baneling bust work or not? if you do it right, your banelings should bust open the wall in and your speedlings just run in, killing what is left of the army or running in the mineral line.

    its very important to do this right and do it quick, i would 13 pool, 14 gas, upgrade speedling then build the baneling nest. and a 2nd gas. grp your banelines as 1 grp and yoru speedlings as another grp, send banelings in first followed by speedlings, you should generally win if your using 7 to 8 banelings and like 12+ speedlings.
