awesome ZvT tactic

I just got the best idea for a ZvT tactic. Have a queen out all by herself in the open. Burrow several banelings in front of her. Wait for your greedy terran opponent to walk along and think, "Score!" as you see his greedy lustful eyes light up at the sight of your poor innocent naive queen. As he rushes forward with slavering jaws you come dashing to her rescue, blowing the hapless MM ball into smithereens!!

Then you go on a whirlwind honeymoon in Char, settling into what you thought was the perfect marriage only to discover her overbearing clingy possessive side which serve to agitate the fact that you just lost your job and you're not sure how your'e going ot make the maotgate payents on the hatch and you tkae to drinking heavily again she divorces you for the better of the kids and you spend the rest of your lonely days as a homeless bum

Yeah but he wound up a homeless bum. So on one hand you have the dodge and on the other hand you're a homeless bum. So it's more like neutral ending, tipping over into sad because you most likely don't have any cash for cheap whiskey.

It's not really a dodge if you get married and then she divorces you and steals half your net worth...

works just great. Only you don't really need a queen, you could do it with even just one zergling

Overlord works too, I hadn't thought of that -- then again, the terran might just use one marine to attack it. I just thought a queen would be a more delectable bait that a Terran would not be able to pass up.

And against mech, Terran probably has either a bunch of marines or hellions to escort their tanks, so banelings still good =)

in your advanced years as a homeless bum, life has become a blur, defined only by the extensions of time between the binge sessions you dive into to numb all feeling -- a poor semblance of freedom from the fits of rage, bitterness and self-pity that overwhelm you in your bouts of sobriety.

but in one night's drunken haze, stumbling down the streets of metalopolis, there, you heard something -- what? you squint your eyes to combat your dwindling tunnel vision -- a faint blood trail in the alleyway leading to a lone wounded corruptor, whining in agony with half its limbs oozing blood. Instantly your breath quickens, the world comes into focus, and you crouch instinctively as you quickly cast your gaze around, searching for who might have done this.

What's this lone spireling doing so far from its pack? no doubt it was fleeing evil Terrans bent upon brutish destruction -- those dogs! as you promise yourself to avenge your fellow zergian. But first things first, you do your best cleaning the wound and staunching the bleeding while whispering soothing words to the whimpering corruptor.

Crack crack crack! Ears perking, you'd recognize the gunfire of the hated Terran 8mm C-14 gauss rifle anywhere, and by the sound of it, they're not too far off either. You look down at your hapless companion, and it's clear he's in no condition to be moved anytime soon, let alone move himself.

What do you do?
A - Stand up and face your enemy like a true son of Zerg and do your race proud
B - Use your cunning like a true wily old-man Zerg you are and attempt to hide

The thought process that goes behind such a post is absolutely befuddling. It's like entering an archaelogical dig, but realizing something isn't quite right... and slowly coming to the realization that none of the remains have any skin and you have discovered an ancient race of skeleton people that once peacefully cultivated the land in 2000 BC.
