EPTif he opted for a 2hatch ling build to try to break your ramp, then hopefully you can scout it and be ready. you become ready by building a cannon if you can (some people integrate the forge into a 1gate corsair build anyway, so that they can follow up with 3gate +1 speed zealot build, or taking their expansion with cannon defense), or if you can't, then bring 3-4 probes to your ramp, put as many as you can behind your zealots so that they can attack the lings that are attacking the zealots. maybe build a shield battery. also to note, once you get your corsair, use it. if he's harrassing you with lings crazily, it'd really help you to kill all his overlords to slow down his ling reinforcements or his macro (if he's given up on lings)

You cannot beat hydras without storm or reavers. | ||

I'm assuming it will make the Zerg player play much more conservatively and safe, as they will need ovy speed. I know P will take the opportunity to expand with cannons as they are harassing with their DT/Sair(s). What do you think about this build, in terms of advantages/disadvantages? When is it a weak build? When is it the strongest? If i am zerg, i always slow ovie/ hydra expo at the 2nd natural | ||

omg, motivate................ you only say that shit cause u think reavers are cool, and that's fine but the truth is that they are very weak vs enough hydra. Hell, it's even viable as a zerg to overpower your one expo sairs with two expo muta+scourge and then you are really in deep shit, aren't you? | ||
