roaches would get melted by thors backed by scv. ultras can cleave them up, and no one said JUST use ultra/infestor. you can mix ultra/roach/hydra/infestor if you will.

oh figures

silver leagues usually dont back it up with scv

burrowed units are easy to spot while moving though...
to be frank i think harassment with mutas > infestors since muta give u map control as well...

i feel infestors's main use are the fungal growth where u can combo with infested marine to take out air units with ease (drop ships/ phoenixes / banshee)...
*
But if you invest too much on mutas against Terran and a thor pops out... good luck

not enuff gas to support muta/ roach...

4 gas is required to pump a steady numbers of mutas with queen larva non stop with some spare gas for roach/hydra

QUOTE(goldfries @ Nov 4 2010, 01:26 PM)
yeah i learned my lesson the other day. over confident with mutas.

every other game that i overwhelmed or had mutas harassing, it's a sure win but this guy was better than what I've played against so far. sad.gif a few placed turrets, some vikings and more marines pumped. i can't hit much.

suddenly THOR come out and i still have no roach / hydra structure yet. GG already. lings and muta how to fight thor + mm + viking combo?
*
tech to banes, see them melt

I learned the hard way that every terran match must at least have a banes nest or roach warden. Either one

if this is asked already then I'm sorry, but on a ZvZ mu how do you deal with enemy cheesing you with 6pools?

Always and always when against zerg I had the tendency to scout at the 7th supply. Then do a quick spine rush.

Somehow I have not been getting ZvZ matches as random. Kept getting either Terran or Protoss when I get Zerg. Getting kinda hooked to the 7 roach rush. Evo was right... It is very addictive. tongue.gif

Can't wait to get a ZvZ. Need to learn up that as well.

Just got zerg matchup yesterday

But thats gold league anyways
Funny how spines just demolish any attempt on banebust

Mmm. So do you rush to roaches first then get the banes or get the lings, convert to banes and then get roaches?

Haha sorry. I'm still quite new to Zerg.
The only strat I know so far is still rushing to roaches, 6 pool, mutaling.
I still suck at using banes, infestors and ultralisk.
*
Usually if they go banes most likely they will forgo speedling upgrade.

Manage to micro past their banes and proceed to wreck havoc on mineral lines while i expand with spines

I been playing zerg, and trying to find out what is the weak point of 15 hatch that protoss can use.. I still cant find it..

If 4 gate push, zerg can use mass roach to def and get eco advantage later.
If void ray rush, rush can mass queens
*
Zealot rush

15 hatch means late pool

Kinda hard to spend all your minerals when going mutaling build... usually too starved of gas.

4 Extractors is needed to pump a steady number of mutas

QUOTE(hazairi @ Nov 22 2010, 06:24 AM)
Nowadays if play vT or vP, tier 3 for Z is like almost obsolete..

T and P will always do early aggression and there's like no time to tech up especially to Brood Lord or Ultralisk.

I mean, upgrading to those things needs alot of resources and time. I think Blizzard should do something with that. While T and P can easily tech to Thor and colossus, we Zerg usually stuck with mass tier 1 and 2 units.. sigh..
kinda suck.

If zerg can tech up to t3 easily it will be the end

Factor in that zerg could mass produce t3 unit in one go

suddenly 6 corrupters morped into bls just outside enemies mineral line and wreck havoc while safely staying out of range from turrets/thors/marines/stalkers and being guarded by mutas

Massed Ultras are no joke either

And heres another point
Other races need to tech up to t3 in order to at least have a fighting chance against zergs t1 and t2 units. Isint it good enough?
