Don't even try claiming otherwise.
thats what all good but lazy players say. you can sure as hell teach it, it just requires a lot of teaching. elaborating on that teaching requires experience, remembering what you learned requires experience, but actually learning it does not require much experience at all.

i'd give it a shot at teaching him a bit myself but i'm lazy as fuck and im willing to admit it

Just a quick question, if you two gate.. how are you supposed to scout him? I just 2 gated and got raped by a surprise mass muta attack. That sucks.

Lol what are you talking about?

Any smart Zerg with corner the Probe and murder it, or you will accidently run into a sunken colony. There is no way you are going to keep your initial scouting probe alive until he is teching a lair and spire, AND getting ling speed.

Saying it shouldn't die until ling speed is a little wrong (some zergs are VERY good at cutting off probes.. midian comes to mind -.-), saying zerg will murder it even without is very wrong.

But basically, if it got in, it shouldn't die for a very long time.

it's harder to keep probe alive against some players than against others. but the probe SHOULD not die until he has ling speed, at least not if he only chases it with 6 lings.

Midian is a dirty 2 hatcher -,- So yes, more lings than 6
