my point is reapers are conditional and need good skill player. if it is that good, all Terran players sure produce reapers most the game already.

as a Zerg player, I'm not scare of other races during early game, except another Zerg player.

Want to swarm me with tier 1 units? Let's see my zerglings better or your marines/zealots better.

Want to go for reapers? then your base is quite open and I might tech to hydra waiting for you, or I even do a 10 pool rush. My opponent need to gather quite some gas b4 reapers can come out ... unless he's a very good defense player, else my speedlings already swarm to his base and surround his barrack.

How to do that when they have choked the ramp? Any way with that? I find it very hard because everytime when a T player goes for Reapers, he blocks his choke with 2 SD and a rax. 10 pool rush also can't break through and if I rush with a 10 pool rush, then economy will be slow n when reapers come, it gets even worse sad.gif

need go hatchery to spawn larva using queen

Also no need, bind your queen to a group, say 4 and just select it, use hotkey "v" for spawn larvae and select your hatchery via the minimap. The queen will auto find the nearest hatchery and spawn larvae there.

yeah especially in ZvZ FE is very scary. A tonne of speedlings can easily go to your FE and wipe it out, outrun the roaches

Which do u guys think is more efficient in ZvZ 1 base play?

lings + roaches or lings + banes?

Personally, I wouldn't set a single mindset in terms of strategy. Be flexible and learn to counter the enemy. Why I say this is because recently after the patch, a lot of Z players tend to roach rush (me included depending on the situation) and then we set ourselves to a single strat. In the end kena counter and dieded. So I decided to try it against another Z player and he did the same thing, sent 10 lings then went for roaches, had about 9 roaches but I had a bunch of zerglings and 6 spine crawlers and jumped straight to muta because he was so focused on roaches. In the end the mutas just wiped out his base (of course I hid my spire tongue.gif)
