Maybe a new zerg strat should be based around making a single queen for the entire game and that would be kept hidden somewhere in the map (pretty much like overlords) and it could be used for the various reasons rubikscube posted above.

I just started playing BW again after a 3 year break. I corrected a few bad habits listening to these pods, but I still have one question.

I use 1-3 and 4-0 with my index on 4, ring s, middle d and pinky on Z. Is this a bad habit or just a preference thing? Should I change to 1-4, 5-0 and move my index to 5?

Thanks for all of this information!

Hey, been haning around TL a little and found this thread, which was completely what I needed! I got a question though (if this has been answered allready earlier in the thread or in other threads, guess I missed it -.-):
What do you do when you get like 5-6 controlgroups of units? In my game, it happens often since lings will easily fill out 3-4 groups if you need loads to fend off an attack. I mean, should I skip my hatchery keybinds or just manually controlling the units without hotkeys? This is a problem in early/midgame and becomes even worse in lategame. Any tips?

Hey Day,

I was wondering if you could maybe do a cast on.. Mirror Matchups!

Some advise & tactics on how to an mirror opponent up to a certain point if at all and how to know when they made a mistake that you can exploit and take to gain an edge/advantage and how to press that advantage into a win.

Thx

Bump . Btw, is this the wrong place to ask for this, or is it found an obvious place on the site I haven't found ? I bet there're some zerg players out there way better than me who can give me some hints.

I'm not really a pro or a Zerg player but what you CAN do is use the F2 F3 F4 keys, i use these for macro, rallies and push locations:
F2 = your macro area aka facts, hatches, gates whatever
F3 = you rally location, usually outside your nat (F2 - F3 lets you redo rallies quickly)
F4 = where you are pushing/attacking

If you are playing Zerg, then you can just select a bunch from F3, press F4 (at their nat say) , A-move, then repeat with a new batch from F3. This way you dont really need to worry about messing up your hatch hotkeys since you'll only have a few hatcheries not covered by F2, thus you can make-a-bunch-a-control groups and mass A-move

I would be interested if July does this:

Given some of the recent noise about 2 hatch vs. 3 hatch in ZvT, I'm really curious to see the upcoming podcast on the subject. But I hear that not everybody plays zerg.
This is my *house*. Do you want to know a *secret*? Do not *think* it too *not campers*. You are so many *lonely* *juicy* *bubbles*. It is so sad. Now that you are *campers* you will have more *parties* and no more *sad* *lonely* *bubbles*.

Lies there are no people who don't play zerg. Don't fill day[9]'s head with ideas that he has to do something not pertaining to zerg.

When I play vs terran I make a queen just in case i'm attacking his cc and he lifts it... and sometime I upgrade spawn broodling to kill tanks
