Build more peons. And ... uh ... don't die.

Both- Keep pumping peons. Have some static defense. Practice good building placement, especially with toss.

Zerg- Try using Zerglings and Mutalisks in conjuncion with one another. Make sure to research burrow. Expand often, take advantage of the low cost of the Hatchery.

Protoss- Drop with DTs and Goons. Try the Reaver Pop. This consists of 2 Reavers and a Shuttle(preferably with the speed upgrade). Drop the Reavers, fire away until defenders get there to kill them, then put them in the Shuttle, and drop in another location. Cause lots of confusion. To make it worse, try dropping at their mineral line with the DTs and Goons, then Reaver Pop their front.

Protoss - Think quality over quantity.
Zerg - The whole exact opposite.
If you don't get that it means...

Protoss - The 3 abuses - ABUSE THE SPELLS of mass destruction!!!, ABUSE THE SHEILD BATTERIES!!! ABUSE THE SHEILD REGENERATION, very important in some sitiuations.

Zerg - Mass... any unit possible. ALWAYS, get a hold of spawn broodling, darkswarm and nydus canals.

Thats all i got to say. biggrin.gif

You don't need to mass with Z to get the same effect as massing. Intense micro with filers and queens vs toss will do the same effect.

However since thats very hard to do, most Z go for mass. If you do this, always remember to flank P. If not storming will own you quicker than peons dying to a good reaver drop.

But, zerg is most lethal against terran with dark swarm, i mean the only thing the terrans can fight bak is a few spells, tanks and bats. biggrin.gif

Nydus Canals are only really effective against other Zerg. Spawn Broodling is very valuable thanks to its effectiveness against High Templar, since Psi Storm is a bane to massed Zerg. Ensare will also reveal cloaked units. A good trick is to Ensnare an Observer, then use Parasite. Voila! You have your own detector. tongue.gif

Hehe nydus is a cool way to kill other zerg players! First make some funky distraction while you build on the creep. (You have to see the creep terrain before you can build.) For example, sometimes i would just attack with guards supported with devos, then start building my nydus when my guards clear enough room.

Risky, this rarely works, i saw my friend have an ollie fly over, put a nydus right in bak of the enemies mineral field and have the ollie fly somewhere safe. The enemy thought that, the nydus canal was his. Boy was he screwed.

Where is christian on this one?
Never build static defence unless you are early exo, teching etc...
Zerg- MutaLings is overused, so most people expect it. Try lurker/hydra combo or try dropping lurker/ling. Expand at least twice as much as the opponent. Two hatches for each expo works for me, because you can constantly build from all of them. For each mineral spot at a mineral deposit, make apxx 2 drones. so, 6 mineral patches = about 12 drones.

Protoss- Make pylon, gateway, pilon cybercore to start, make a few zeals in there to help you out, after that just tech differently. If you can expand freely, do it before you cant.

My internet has been acting gay lately...

Zerg: Static deffence, but WORTHY static deff. Five sunkens put together are less effective than 2/3 sunkens near the ramp. Confusion works best. Try to make your opponent think you are attacking his choke, but in fact, drop or someting...

Protoss: High Templars are you best friend tongue.gif. VS Zerg; research storm earlier, vs Terran and Protoss, you may want to get Archons first, then research storm later.

Well spawn broodlings will be your friend as well. biggrin.gif

In most cases, yes, but you will need good scouting AND micro to actually stop the bad part from happening. You need to know where HTs are, and spawn them when they are still on the back, even if you must lose 1 or 2 Queens in the process.

Yeah it's pretty risky, but parasite does that part of the job. biggrin.gif
