screw it
just use the gas+min you could have used on queen+scourge
and tech up to freakin hive for chrissake.

3/3 ultraling + swarm will rape anything T can or will send at you

No one is suggesting doing this before hive, I mainly do it once im already at hive and have a good supply of gas going. This isn't some every game thing, but when the opportunity presents itself, I think it's definately worth it.

I've been trying to figure out a solid build for hydralurk once I started playing on iCCup, but then mech terran flew in out of nowhere and so far I've only had the opportunity to use hydralurk once this season. It worked for the game, but the player was worse than me so it didn't satisfy me at all.


look for the in_Dove vs type-b[s.g] series, he uses hydralurk really really well in all of them

Im pretty sure its an old game like 2004-06?
Dont use outdated reps as an example

Its like saying 1 fact starport is overpowered and show a boxer replay from 2001;;.
The game constactly evolves where the strats of today can be useless tomorrow. Hydra lurk isnt viable these days because you need a strong eco to start and because terran timing these days is so much better you're going to be rolled over before your eco kicks in. Terran will notice you going hydra lurk and switch to 2 fact. Also terran mechanics are so good these days terrans going sk can fight headon vs hydra lurk. Its viable until you meet decent terrans. If you're starting out it might be easier to control than lurk ling.

or, you know, putting some hydras in your army like a good player

I dont see good players put hydras in their army. Besides scourge to keep the vessel count down literally all zergs use 1-2 mutas to kill plagued vessels.

Given most people aren't pro enough to keep their m&m army alive forever, I think it is well worth it provided you have a stable 3rd gas. The time they lose on gathering minerals, not to mention reducing their vessel count in half due no 2nd gas. IMO The timing to do it would be after defending the big Terran push with hive tech. Why I say hive is you will need swarm to survive any possible counter attack when you blitz their CC expo. Again, how viable depends on the quality of the opponent.
