On p2h I suggest pool first, then 2nd hatch at crossroads, and 3rd hatch at expand. Then either muta or lurkerdrop so you can take islands. If you're 9 pooling, don't waste your lings trying to kill him. Just see what he has, if he has like 5 scv and 2 rine on his choke, don't bother, and make a sunk asap at your 2nd hatch, because you don't want to waste larva on more lings. If he only has 1 rine, kill the 5 scv anyway. 5 scv make a lot of difference in his eco. Most likely you'll be able to kill rines after that too :p 9 pool basically means you're 3 hatching, but when he's teching, I'd go 2nd hatch, and gas relatively fast. You need a lair fast vs cliffdrop or whatever gayness he might throw at you. Sacrificing a lord to see his tech also comes in handy, like when he's getting 2 port wraith, it's convenient to build a spore at each of your mineral lines. They don't cost that much, and he can't do jackshit with his wraiths then. If you do that, you can still power some drones, and build muta later (even if your spire is already completed). If he's building wraith btw, get OL speed too. Anyway, if he's not teching, just do your 9 pool (9/9 pool, 8/9 drone, 9/9 extractor trick into 10/9 drone, then lord, then 6 ling when lord+pool finishes. With exact timing the lord finishes at the same time as when the pool finishes). After that get your hatch at 13/17, and your 3rd hatch at 15/17, while building drones. Get a sunken at your 2nd hatch, and pump drones. Get gas around 18/18, and lair after, and keep track of his tech/amount of rines. Then just continue with whatever you want to tech. | ||

 Then it all depends on first battle. If you win that with overwhelming numbers, you can win again~ | ||
