Rush the zerg?

[Islandsnake]

Yes thats true, but it doesn't change the fact that he was the only one on here for a very long time with that icon ;d

Its fine im just saying why we confused you at first glance with him ^_^


Though if It was me I would change it since I hate when people have the same avatar as me

Then again alot of people are used to that haha

Rofl awesome your my new favorite junior member

Hah, that was quick

But back ontopic, when the zerg players fast expand (like I have seen they do most of the times) Should I try to tech, get an expand of my own or just rush with as many low tier units as I can? If you rush a zerg, can't he just mass upp zerglings?

It takes 4 Zerglings to kill a Zealot, with full surround. If you can get pairs of Zealots or hide them in cracks you double or tripple their effectiveness vs Lings. Its all about positioning.

If you see him fast expanding, pump out Zealots from two gateways and upgrade warp-in ASAP off one gas. Get a pylon in or near his base and just keep the Zealots coming. As long as you can stop him from getting Roaches, you're set.

What about the queen? If you scout the zerg, you se that he tries to get an early expansion, got the spawning pool and the queen up. He hasn't started on a roach warren or similar yet (nor uppgrading to lair) Should you just spam with as many zealots as you can?

Queens are Zealot fodder. Just keep pumping Zealots and use your gas on Warp-In and Sentries.

Pssh. Queens eats Zealots for breakfast if they have a meat-shield or just good micro.

I have found in PvZ that 2gate, Zealot-pushing is really the only way I can survive for very long. Just about every Zerg I play against has gone early hatch, and once they have that they get an econ bonus. With an econ bonus, there is very little a zerg -can't- do.

Also, never send zealots out in ones. Send them in pairs. Again, this is why I 2gate tech against zerg. I've been doing an 11 double gate, building both gates at once strategy that has actually been fairing really good. That means you get 2 Zs out at once with no delay and you can immediately send them out to attack his expo. Set the waypoint for your gateways to his expo and keep pumping Zs, transition into Immortal tech (Immortals do great against spine crawlers if he tries that, plus killing Roaches) and you're in a better position to handle whatever he goes for. If he goes mutas, you can sentry+stalker him, kill his econ. If he goes hydra/roach, -you- have the economy advantage and can immortalt + colossi or go HT tech.

But without that Z pressure, Zerg determines the course of the game and you will find yourself pushed farther and farther back until you're dead.
