Project 27: TvZ (Bio) Instead of getting siege upgrade and tanks, get vult upgrades instead (mines and then speed). I'd imagine this would require a much higher micro ability, and would get owned bad if he got ovie speed really fast for no reason, but I'm curious to see what would happen if a player of your ability tried to pull it off. First Impression: I don't see the point of vultures, since it'd get eaten alive from lurkers. Vultures can't kill lurkers that are burrowed or break sunken lines... Results pending Vultures + mines has become pretty standard it TvZ :O | ||

1. SCV Rush 2. Midgame SCV harass a base in a TvT 3. Go carriers in a PvP Any of the three will do. | ||

For the challenge, I challenge you to do 2 port wraith into 2 base BC rush. You may build marines but they must not leave your base so it's for protection only! You may only build 24 wraith in total and rest of offensive units must be BC and SV (D-Matrix only) | ||

Can't believe you won the tvp after fail fbat drops For pvz you can do 2 robo 1 base with shuttle speed, should try it out, gotta manage well with scouting to not die to two hatch muta | ||

Finish him off with hidden 3 port wraith. EDIT: It might work better with a proxy 8 rax opening. and only one rax total. How you want to do it is up to you. | ||

Strat: 9h9p9o, hatch being in opponent's natural, follow up with sunken contain, get hydras and spores before he gets mutas, follow up with ensnare and eventually plague and dark swarm. Effects: The player will BM you, claim that he had sex with your mother and you like dudes, whisper you after the game etc etc. | ||

If you wanna try a build of mine which actually worked untill I met C and higher players, open up 3hatch ZvT, as you normally would (overpool / 12hatch both works) When you workers start mining gas you instantly throw down an evo chamber for +1 armor. With your next 100 gas you get ling speed and then lair with the next 100. When you've saturated ur mineral lines you start pumping lings (14-16) and be bat shit aggressive with em, kill off initial mnm groups When lair is half way done you throw down a hydra den and start lurkers when lair finishes (throw down second gas when lurker tech is started). Throw 4th hatch at your third or as a macro hatch depending on how much damage your zergling did, drone up a little so you can saturate 4 hatch production and move into hydralurker tech. When you start hive you should be aiming for a hydra / guard / lurker / ling combination. Mineral onlys are welcome candidates as your hydra / ling / lurk midgame army is really midgame heavy if you 12 hatch put down a evo chamber somewhere before +1 carapace finishes and get +1 ranged attack. it works really nicely and it's alot of fun to do even if I dont really do it anymore as pure hydra lurk builds work better vs C/C+ guys on the right maps :p | ||

Okay ^ If you do choose to watch this for the love of god 16x it until like a minute or three before the end. Obviously the fact I was able to do this meant the other guy was absurdly terrible. | ||

I'dl like to see a build that i done a lot on bnet (not iCcup). It's ZvP. I called this "burrow rush". You get burrow before speed (2player map only i think) and you go straight for the throat. You separate your lings in his base (attack a pylon, probes, or nexus) when reacting. Immediatly burrow. (you'll have some lings rallied and attack something else with them). Unburrow lings that have nothing on top of them(like a zealot). Burrow when zealots or probes approach and unburrow the second (or third or whatever groupe). If you pull this off, you are gonna have to support a lot of rage/bm because it's a retarded build (and risky but funny). I hope i explained it well. That's not really micro heavy. If he is doing zealot block (at ramp) bring a drone and mineral pass them. When i played BW i remebered it separated the zelot(s) and you can pass your lings inside. But i don't know if you can still do that.

No one make scouts even if that's the only unit that you can produce... Or they are doing the stove and anyway you are screwd (unless you do the canon build :p (don't remember the name of this great strategy)). | ||

Project 29: ZvZ How about queens to support Scourges? I'm pretty sure Zero did this in some game that he won. Ensnared the mutas. | ||
