I still don have my starcraft but I've been analysing some games and understanding the mechanics. So basically he forge expand? What you should have done is have hydra lings. U do know that hydra's are good vs gateway units? Since I'm not watching the replay, I wont know if he went colossus, but u shud have macro-ed up and when hydra lings with evo chamber +1 armor and range upgrade frm hydra den

Hydra lings first.. keep on monitoring his robo bay, if he goes robo fac, prepare for a colossus thermal lance. Then u need to hit up corruptors, not mutas. But if you saw that he went gateway units like hell, you should have up hydras fast. Plus as zerg you have economic advantage, you can transition real fast

Well seeing ur bronze.. i doubt you would have great macro la. 12 minutes seem long and you could have downed him real early. 20 sentry = 2k gas.. its like damn heavy dy.. actually even burrow roaches can kill him easily with 1+1 speedlings. But why I prefer hydra, cuz u can break his wall off and gg him with range upgrade. So just polish up on your macro and watch more replays / games. You would do well

QUOTE(Keenxlimit @ Jul 14 2011, 10:36 AM) Its my specialty(?) to attack from multiple directions... Yup... zerg is a never give up race. Cuz some things might go your way for you always have economic advantage ( unless u were screwed early game by harass on the mineral line) don be like Idra and rage quit earlyI kept the main army busy by running lings to their death, but mutas were killing workers. I also learnt that, never gg out of a game >.< you never know when desperate mass lings will win the game for you... |

Guys, when they mean power drones, does it mean saturating the base? How many drones do I need to saturate a base (including gas)? 22?

Guys wanna ask.. how do you set the control group for your army? Esp if you add infestors to your muta, bane, lings composition. Here is mine ATM:
1 - Zerglings 2 - Banelings 3 - Muta 4 - All hatch 5-9 queens |
