Just play like Bisu and you're good I actually believe this is why Bisu started going for +1 speedlot opening. It has the most security across builds zerg can open with and allows for opportunities to harrass and scout with zealots. I think that the build has fallen out of favor partly cause of maps and partly because of the poor multitasking abilities that non bisu players have in this matchup. | ||

I guess it depends on the player, but it should be much easier. | ||
