and yea no one gets 7 mutalisks, 7 is the minimum cuz 7 kills a scv in one hit. If you look at his fpvods vs oov on rh3, he doesn't micro at all. When oov came he just attacked him with pure lurkers -_-. oov I don't know why, thought a good counter would be to send 3 firebats to the 3rd expo to kill it, they were able waste about half of the hatchery's blood before all dying to mutas.

Luhh the fuck you talkin about? All zergs build 9 and use them for stalling rather than killing. July sometimes goes for 10 or 11. The other vital function of mutas is to prevent drops(or to go defend against one so you don't have to pull your entire lurkling force back), very important to keep at least 6 of 9 mutalisks up for the later stages of the game.


I read my post and it's kind of messy. The point was on maps which allowed it, he went double exp instead of single exp after 9 mutas and had enough money. Thus it's superfucking critical for him to keep the terran in the base.

I've never seen July do that. July likes to fly around and kill things and adds more units earlier. He doesn't use the necessary minimum as efficiently, and instead wants to kill more terran stuff. Savior gameplan is to get swarm from 4 gas, July's gameplan often seems to be a hope of killing the terran army still on lairtech, since he doesn't have the same amount of gas from an overall more starved game.

About the 7 vs 9. yeah my bad. Confused myself there.
I wouldn´t call him stupid, but let´s just say he´s unlucky when thinking...

biggest difference between july and savior is july uses more zerglings and less lurkers so he doesn't need as much gas. Hive timing is still the same in most cases. Hiving is not a style, it's a necessity in zvt to counter a lot of things.

this guide is good, but it helps terran player more than zerg player imo. most decent zvt ers either have a style or have learned savior zvt it's the standard, the strat jesus zerg created to balance zvt

Awesome. I love seeing well written Zerg strategy threads. If I learn well and research all your ways, I might one day be able to win a PvZ.

Nice thread.

Imo gaurdians are a very important part of this build. If the terran were tank heavy they do a great job pushing him back into his natural. And as most of us know, swarm in his natural is as close as u can get to a gg.
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even a fool can be right

Haha I have been copying this build a long time also. First time I noticed it, was savior using this build on r-point. It was like magic which just shut down everything the terran was doing.

Savior is claiming every zerg build, we running out, now.
Soon enough if you say 'Savior style', it might even be refering to some Terran strategy o.O

I know savior did not invent 3 hatch muta. He modified it with little changes to counter terran fast expo. The replay you guys all have of nada vs savior on luna was a completely different build. People used to 3 hatch muta and get lurkers sooner or later and expo later or 4th hatch in base, etc, etc and not pushing the limits of the build. Savior modified it so it's a perfect now. The zvp savior thread has nothing to do with this, everyone knows he didn't invent zerg turtling. Savior is the first zerg to place so much emphasis on gas, more so than july/yellow/chojja, anyone that came before him.
