uhm, a build I used waay back, works on destination pretty good (only map where I used it)

PvZ:
- Get a sneaky third, preferably near the enemy base, but it shouldn't be the Zerg's 3rd or 4th and it should be away from the muta path.
- tech as usual, get sairs, storms, hold bridges -- make sure that you are contained by hydralisks and he is pumping hydras.
- mass gateways at third, around 4~5 will do.
- get +1 attack and speed.
- grab 10 or more zealots from your third (but still continue creating them), run through his base, destroy den, pool, spire, evo chamber in any way you want, the evo is optional.
- Break contain at your nat, push push push. This will be a bit hard since you had majority of your gatewats in your third, but his units are pulling back to clean you up, he'll be stupid to attack you.
- If you're lucky you can actually contain him, but if you were not, just flank his army and rape it.
- grab idle zealots at thrid to rape any expansion.


Well you've won after you raped his tech so anything really goes after. Just note that this build usually worked (at least for me) when the zerg goes muta then hydra, because I know that he won't be having any lurkers out soon and there's a chance that I can still have +2 attack before I raid his base. This build is shit if your third gets spotted (which happened to me) since I personally didn't get cannons to save up on minerals. It's a fun build, especially when the zerg gets complacent in his situation that he forgets to scout and just mass hydras that are rallied to your base.

Someone tried the +1 attack mass lings ZvZ against me. I scouted it and recognised it straight away. Then he called me a noob, and an awful player when I built ~6 sunkens to counter it, and then raped him with mutas XD

this is a PvZ rofl build: the PvZ reverse sunken push
open with a bisu FE into DT + sairs
then get fast shuttle with speed and a dark archon + mind control
go steal a drone and make a hatchery, spawning pool and make however many drones fit in a shuttle

now go drop all your drones inside his base and start building sunkens everywhere!!!

the key is to harass him as much as possible in the early game with your DTs & sairs
maelstrom can also be utilized after the initial drone is jacked
gl and hf! i hope you try this xD

On a map like Medusa (easy 2 gas and 3 mineral formations), go for a Vulture/Valkyrie build against Zerg.

Get a control group of Valkyries, with ups, and then start adding in tanks, since a dozen Valkyries is more than enough to get the job done at that point. Keeping them alive against scourge will be difficult though.

Crazy amounts of micro needed (think of muta micro, except you need to macro like a motherfucker, plus plant mines all over the place). But, if you do it, I have a feeling it would be very powerful.

This is super special awesome. Somehow, I liked the scouts strategy the best, even though it's the worst one.

hilariously unviable, but you can probably humiliate some Ds with it PvZ. Rush mind control with dark archon and MC a drone, and allocate minerals to lairtech/spire. then, middish/later game snipe OL's with scourge and send in your DT's.

and good luck with your family emergency wish you and your family the best.

Proxy all production facilities(except Nexuses) as toss and just mass up and flank the enemy's army. Maybe even make it so that your opponent can't take more than 2 or 3 bases because of this.

I doubt you'll see this as its 18 pages in or someone has already said it, but..

TvZ: Wraith to chase out ovies then nukes. thats right. nukes. possibly no comsat,but if you are teching up to ghost/wraiths an sv shouldnt be too hard to come by. Obvious problems would be timing as it takes awhile to get up, and if its scouted spores will go up. Maybe more of a mid-late game push. Wait till you have ghosts/cloak and a nuke before you start chasing ovies out. Sorry for giving you your worst matchup again.
It is better to be on hand with ten men then absent with ten thousand

lol @ bgh comment u noob(jk).

As for the 1v1 play/obs I do that all the time to create hilarious games for people to watch or watch to noobs(or a noob and a C+ player) pawn/ humiliate each other(or themselves lol). I last observed a game where it was 3 ffa game and 1 player did 4scv rush with a CC lift on python. He kept saying: "WHY CAN'T I LAND?!? WHY CAN'T I LAND?!? YOU HACKERS! LAND CC LAND O GOD PLZ LAND!"

b.net is a great place to go to get a couple lols.
