But whenever i do this, by the time my first two zeals reach his base he's got like 8 lings, and by the time i get 4 he has a zillion of lings. And i always get overrun because i lack cannons. Is that a wrong counter suggested in the build? I haven't had that counter work yet either, but my micro tends to be really poor anyway. Does anyone have replays of how to play it vs 3hatch before pool? | ||

As a zerg I smile when they do this, even if I went 3hatch before pool. So far I've never had problems with it, just defended and then played whatever way I wanted as he'd be late with his tech due to this. | ||

Cant wait to try it against the spire/scourage + 5 hatch hydra build ive always had trouble with it since i add gate ways before researching storm and robo one question i have is when the zerg does the neo_sauron zerg build, as it is called in this guide do i cut sair production? | ||

But if your sair sees otherwise, DT/Sair, Reaver/Sair are viable obv. | ||

But that could also be because i suck xD no man ive seen pro gamers come back from being 5 pooled in a 2 player map all you have to do is scout either after pylon or forge and by the time you see the 5 pool, which will be quickly since its a 2 player map you build a pylon next to your main nexus then a cannon in the main where it protects the nexus Let the zerg have the forge if he decides to take it since you dun need more than one cannon taking out the forge will just mean your cannon goes up by the time he is inside your main If the zerg runs by the forge bring all your probes around the cannon so the zerglings can't attack it. Sure the zerg will prob get 2 - 4 or even 5 probes but the cannon morphs in and once the 6 zerglings dies you take economic lead | ||

I watched some IefNaij replays and he goes FE into Stargate+Templar tech (he +1 ground earlier and goes second gas after core is built). So his corsair timing is like 6:30. On December 23 2008 12:43 SuperJongMan wrote: Minerals mined by 5 minutes Hungry - 1862 (31 Probes+312) Regular - 2118 (32 Probes+518) I don't get it as well. Let me take hungry build. By 5 minutes you have to spend (asuming the under 5 minutes corsair) 1350 minerals on probes 400 minerals on nexus 150 on gateway 200 on core 450 on forge and cannons assuming 31 probes + 2 zealots + corsair = at least 3 pylons = 300 minerals 200 on 2 assimilators 200 on 2 zealots 100 on weapons upgrade 150 on citadel 150 on arhives 150 on sair = 3800 minerals On probes, nexus, core, gate, forge and cannons you have to spend 2550 alone. 3. Can someone post a few replays of this exact build working at least on C level plz? | ||

The money is counted by probesx50+minerals left by the time first sair is made. As for the in game timer... i dunno, I haven't watched a proper replay in years, literally. | ||

I could look, but I'd like to ask if anyone has a replay that is almost a perfect example of this build. I'd like to just watch it and go through the timings. If someone who's high level would like to play this build to demonstrate and save a replay, that'd be fine too. | ||

I recently (finally) attempted to incorporate this build into my repertoire, but as I trained single player I could never get the Corsair out by 4:20 using the Hungry Build. The best I ever could do was maybe 5:45 - cannons at 13/14, Nexus/Gate at 15, Assimilator/Core at 17, and then a Stargate basically as soon as the Core finishes. And yet after trying multiple times I was unable to push the time down even to 5 minutes. Does anyone else have experience with this? | ||
