need advise from fellow zerg players...
how do u guys hold off a 4warpgate rush (zealot heavy -> zealot stalkers -> zealot stalkers immortals) if u go for FE (13pool 14hatch)...
keep getting my butt kicked...

i managed to push back at times, going to his natural (killing his nexus) and containing him...
but somehow when he gets his immortals out, really hard to hold my position >.<

the main worry is that if i dun FE, my opponent would FE and my larvae count from a single hatch would nt keep up wit his army/eco...
and u usually got for double queen...

my usual BO
10 - overlord
10 - extractor trick
13 - pool
14 - hatch
16 - queen (when out larvae the main then start walking to expansion)
17 - overlord
17 - gas
18 - roach tech
18 - 2nd queen (for main)
then jz mass around 10-12 roaches with overlords while moving some drones to expansion (while producing some more when i dun have enuff gas for roaches)

then these roaches would be enuff to hold off early pushes before counter pushing (with +1 damage upgrade otw)...
all these while building up my eco and rally-pointing to the 'head' roach...
then i get melted by 2-3 immortals backed wit gateway units "

assuming if i would avoid FE what would be the suitable BO?
and when should i be getting my expansion?

ya tried...
failed miserably...
cant handle the zealots...
3 zealots can take down the spine crawlers with ease...

ya i'm quite macro heavy early game (ala IdrA)...
depending on wut i scouted, i might be building lings or skipping lings into roaches...

my opponent bring in 10 zealots vs 3 spine...
spine with the previous nerf falls super fast to zealot surrounds...

i think the 4 warpgate build can burn me down before i can maintain the 5 spines 

after the roacher nerf, it's even harder to fend off the initial push if u FE in zerg.
usually wat i did is get a bunch of speedling and tower def,  and get a few queens to mix in the army size, then quickly tech up to hydra or muta

i already got mine. should be buying it on 10 or 15 july.

this morning after upgrade my Modem Firmware.. the lag reduce so much alrdy.
still i can't confirm was it because my connection are having issue or what.

just wish tonight i can play SC2 without lag.

Screamyx decided to GG me. Suddenly everything went uber slow, so slow that I thought I was inside the old Mothership's Time Bomb.

obsolete as blizz apparently disabled it

nooo... this is bad =( no more gateway select like war3 n SC1

Being a zerg must always harass Terran so that they can't get a sizable army with mech.

isnt that what air is for ? or maybe a drop ?

I think it has been established that bunkering in wont work anymore

Since the introduction of units that can easily bypass ur defences from the sides.

Actually if I go baneling burst the game usually ends around 10 minutes mark. A good zerg player can pressure terran not to expand and unless they spend a chunk of money on turrets to repel muta. But baneling rush can destroy the CC in a blink of an eye

Haha how many of terran players actually block their ramp with 2 barracks? I saw none so far in platinum league.

You can counter everything in theory but in reality it doesn't work that way. Rocket towers (turret not tower) requires investment. Thor is so freaking slow and at a constant pressure Zerg will easily out macro a pressured terran.

Just like how it shown in Sen vs Dimaga match. Speedlings resist early push transition to muta to contain terran onto 1/2 base and out macro them. Even thor drops failed.

Link?

Edit: nvm, found it, I shot an email to IAH Games to find out the reasons behind the super ridiculous price.

And I wonder how many of you gamers realize that the Singapore servers for superflop Hellgate London was hosted by them, and they were incapable of even updating the servers with the patched version. If they're hosting the SEA battle.net servers, Blizzard better keep some full time staff here ready.

Oh god it's coming guys

i already did wit kopitiam...
and i doubt they know wut is a rickroll "
