I just played a game on LT, i started at 12 as zerg my opponet was at 6 as a random terran. I sent first ovie to 3, then i scouted with 9th drone to 9. When i finally found him i had already placed 2nd hatch in my main in case of him being zerg. is there a way to find them before u have to place hatch?

If I don't find him before decision time, I make my pool first (11 or 12 pool). If you shift clicked the drone to the the bases properly, you should know his race before you have to place the hat.

My scouting = first ovie to next nearest main, e.g if I'm 9 then to 12, 9th drone to farthest 2nd ovie to nearest. Just go 12 pool 12 hatch its not like you gonna lose a lot on that

Also remeber that most people will usually scout clockwise so you should be able to guess based on what time he scouts you.

Seriously though, just expo anyway. Unless you at 12, in which case 9pool is the best opening. If you don't want to expo in case you vs zerg then always open with a 9pool :O
