Has anyone else felt like mass infestors (10 infestors) roach ling is good against protoss. Don't say that you need anti air, I feel like it's a very strong timing push, for you can get about 80 infested marines if full energy, and roaches are strong against zeals, and still do quite a bit of dmg to the stalkers if you can get in on them. Also the many infested marines do a lot of dmg per a second and the speed ling you have been saving up help surround their units too.

***EDIT***
Ok, It's 4AM, so I was playing lazy, and didn't care to scout too hard for dts, but here's a replay of it.

It's supposed to stop the usually collossi mass, and then give me map control, and the ability to tech to ultras/broodlords easily after that.

***EDIT***
This is it against ZvT for practice.

I`m sure sarcasm conveys well over onternet.

Anyhow I would imagine this strategy would give up mapcontrol if not outright die to any toss timing pushes, yeah you can win fight with 80 infested marines, but if that fight happens right before you doorsteps he can run away and return after a minute when you have no army but infestors with depleted energy.

Also replays?

Yes, I got replays, but i'm sure people will bash them a lot. I've been playing with a lot of tosses around 1000 points, but i've been too lazy to micro overseers too.

Another underused tactic in zvp is fungal growthing zealots.
Makes them completely useless vs roach/hydra.
