Sure thing. I'm at work right now and won't be home until around 9am tomorrow.
ZvT, I go 15hatch 16pool 18gas 17overlord. My first 100 gas goes to speed and make 4 lings. What I do from then on depends on what I scout. Regardless, I make sure I don't miss my injects and creep spread. 4 queens do the trick for me. One ling go to the nearest xelnaga tower to my opponent's base, the 3 stand guard in front of his natural. I constantly poke in to look at his wall or to check if he takes his natural.
I build buildings depending on how much gas i have. Above, I mentioned that my first 100 gas goes to ling speed. Against a Terran who does marine-tank pushes, I go: next 50 gas goes to Baneling Nest, next 100 gas goes to lair, next 100 goes to +1 melee, next 200 goes to Spire, next 150 goes to baneling speed and save gas from there, for mutas and +1 air attack. My mutas come out around the 10/11-minute mark. By this time, I should (or hope to) have a 3rd and a macro-hatch. Behind the muta harass, I go hivetech, get more upgrades and take more bases for more gas.
As for ZvP, I personally go 15hatch 16pool and delay my gas until around 30 supply. A handful of Protoss players in the Gold/Plat leagues go FFE, so I could safely take a 3rd around 20-ish supply, sometimes even as early as 16 (after the 16pool). But I don't forget to do is take the Roach Warren and Evo Chamber at around the 7minute mark then make (at least) one spore crawler per base when the evo pops.
I've heard over pro Zerg streams (Sheth, Destiny, CatZ, among others), "do not hatch-first against a Protoss". That's fine, you could go 13/14pool 15/16hatch (and 16 or 21 hatch again if he goes FFE). This build allows you to get queens/spines/lings earlier against one-base protoss all-ins.
But, yeah, this is just me. Doesn't work all the time, but it pays to have one solid build per match-up under your sleeve. Still took me to top 16 Platinum in NA last season (haven't played 1v1 ladder this season, but will go back when I get my new laptop).
the do not hatch first is not against 1 base all in. a FFE protoss can 100% cannon rush a hatch 1st. basically once you reach master every zerg will jus pool 1st.ZvT, I go 15hatch 16pool 18gas 17overlord.
