3 hatch hydra with OL speed ? if he goes hardcore sair DT he won't have enough army / HT to stop a good timed 3hatch hydras

strangely the very few ZvP i managed to win were when P did this strat. When P goes standard 2gate harass into zeal temps goon i get rolled over ^_^;

edit : i assumed you meant dt / cor early game, if it's late game and he's harassing your expos with dt just go sunken spore as strafe said

i REALLY hate those p's harrassing with ~4-5 sairs and a few dts evrywhere while building up a decent force.
but yeah hyds should own. or later hive z air > p air so if ur oppponent is going for straight sair/dt or sair/rvr go 4 a nice air army and pwn his ass. hts are ur only problem then so micro

or go 4 sum safe expands and sunken/spore up and macro like shit and overwhelm his gay units --" beating gay strats with gay style isnt gay

What I have seen, 3 hatch hydra is good counter. But it's hard to scout this strat, if he won't make 2 stargate soon and they'll be scouted. And after that he can go cors/reaver too. w/e

all the good toss gamers dont play this strategy in the beginning. The problem actually is, that if u are the zerg, and you went lurker/ling or muts or ultralisks or whatever, you wont be able to have a good force vs 7-12 corsairs with 1:0 upgrade..

Every good toss uses this strategy after 20-40 minutes in the game.. This strategy is good, cause it surprises many zergs who didnt build many hyds but much lurkers and ultras.. All you can do is to build a spore and sunken at each expo immidiately and start producing hyds only until you solve the ''problem''.

Dont build corsairs or mutalisks.. And keep an eye on your main ( dont let u kill your important buildings by dt drop with cors ) and dont forget spores at expo..
