If its a max of 5-6 enemy units near that swarm and u think no new ones are coming and u're feeling hot about your targeting and u got very fast hands, no.
Great minds might think alike, but fastest hands rule the day~

vulture spider mines ,they kill defilers instantly or mass iradiate which is also a good counter.

Spider mines kill anything instantly, but I doubt any zerg would need to get them if he sees you go metal early...

You lose automatically if your opponent uses good dark swarm and has a good econ. Just type "GG" : [
