sunkens hold your exp - if you can cut ling numbers you'll have more drones and thus a greater econ than the 1-base terran user.

Ya that's why I prefer not to build lings, but sunkens. Sunkens only take 1 drone/1 larva, whereas for the same money you have to waste 3 larva on lings, thus having a low eco. If you're playing some 3 hatch build, it's good to get speedling if you already have a good eco tho, like when your spire is 200/200 (assuming you're going spire). Those speedlings are good vs fact before academy drop thing (where they ferry men on your plateau). They're also good vs a possible fast tankpush, because you stall first, when you get muta, you'll have muta/ling Oo;

Try a couple of the following:

1. 4-5 sunkens lined up, you don't need much units for MM with this (you need to race lurkers with tanks)
2. speedlings + 2-3 sunkens, while rines attack the sunken, SURROUND the rines with your lings
3. burrowed speedlings, a. go into his base and try to harass or w/e or b. place a sunken or so, and burrow your lings where the rines would fire on the sunken
When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
