Drone rush on 2 player maps against Protoss who are trying to FFE.

Oh wait, we were talking UNoriginal. Nevermind.

This doesn't work. I've tried this extensively. I think I'm like 0-12 with it. I need a guide.

There was a game between bisu and some zerg amateur a couple of years ago on stream. Bisu went his usual ffe while zerg did 1BASE hydra->2hatch muta->lurker drop. Bisu won but he was placed in quite the scramble to defend it. He was so impressed by it that next game, he offraced zerg against a random toss amateur to copy and try the build for himself (and bisu was amused when he pwned the toss)!!

Sadly didn't record or remember the bo, it was a cute build tho

7 pool into speedling + burrow. If you can't kill him outright here, you will burrow on his ramp and wait until he moves there like any stupid terran would do. Meanwhile you get lair (after you only have 2 drones in your gas) and at around 50% start hydra den and get lurker research. If the terran is stupid (which is very likely with terrans), then he will lose either all his marines at the ramp and lose. If you can't kill him yet, then harass him in the mineral line with burrow/unburrow micro where you should not lose any ling and he will get comsat as soon as possible because why would he make ebay? He will waste all his scans on getting rid of unburrowed lings and will not have any when lurkers arrive. If you still didn't win yet, then go play SC2 or sth.

Proxy hatch ling rush.
Then a backdoor sunken push.
There is no escape.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

is 973 hydra wave considered cheese? It is deffo an all-in kind of build, not hard to optimize, and requires more micro then macro. Not to mention it is super hard to defend as toss.
I am drone! My dream is Hatchery!

(1) Three hatch --> Lair --> Lair --> Overlord Drop--> Overlord Speed --> Zergling Speed.

(2) Two-base Plague. Rush Hive and build two Defiler Mounds to research Consume and Plague at the same time.

(3) Any aggressive build designed for a different matchup.
My strategy is to fork people.
