I would say ultras are a bigger waste of money than double baneling nests.

Do you make banelings to destroy your wall so you can get out when the danger is over? It's sounds like a good call tbh.

I like this build because you can upgrade Melee, Range, AND Carapace all at the same time. Also if one baneling nest gets sniped while upgrading baneling speed, you can immediately start it again. Plus there's a big meat shield for the spine crawlers.

If you burrow the Ultralisks they don't know that you can wall and might try to strafe in for some Drone kills and then BAM! Out comes five Ultralisks and smashes the Hellions, you can even use them to kill the drops, it's that good.
The cur foretells the knell of parting day; The loafing herd winds slowly o'er the lea; The wise man homeward plods; I only stay to fiddle-faddle in a minor key.

Hey guys, you don't understand, he WANTED to make banelings in this game, no matter what, so he built a fake baneling nest to decieve his opponent and a real one to build real banelings.

OFC a fake baneling nest allows you only to make fake banelings which explode into cake and happyness for the terran marines, but the point is, terran wouldn't know which baneling is true and which is fake!

This is, in fact, the most brilliant counter to hellion harass, as now terran have to worry about being double-bluffed if the two buildings were fake banelings nest, and topgun was really going infestors.

The next meta-game shift, perhaps?...
Half-french, half-polish, Half-greek Half-english, and yet fully zerg! For the swarm till the end!

Banshees definately don't care about walls, that's one thing I've learnt.

No no no you guys got it all wrong. You need to mind control probes then wall off with pylons. That'll trick those pesky Protoss's.

2 roach warrens are better imo, that way you can get tunneling claws and Roach Speed all at the same time. very similar to the bw 2 observatory build.
