I'd sooner just fend off with lings... PS. As soon as you see the queen coming you know what's happening too... | ||

Though it is pretty costly at 75 minerals, plus the time when you're spending nothing to wait for 300 minerals, plus any Spawn Larva cycles that you miss due to the Queen being away from base and spending 25 energy on a tumor. This might be worth it to establish a contain at the natural on maps like Kulas Ravine. But even then, it's pretty iffy. | ||

Also the OP should better read the rules... you need multiple replays on platinum level if you are not a known player to provide evidence that something's wrong. Please read the rules before posting. I don't think this build is overpowered at all since its all in, deal with it. | ||

On April 19 2010 02:07 Twinweapon wrote: I have just encountered a rush from zerg that I think glitched. Zerg is all standard until he makes a queen, rushes it to your base with 6 drones and about 8-10 zerglings. One drone makes a hatch and then cancels it quickly allowing creep. Queen builds a tumor there. While the tumor is spreading they start making 5-6 spine crawlers. Also preventing you from killing them as he has now spawned 20 zerglings by now. Anyway to counter this as Terran as by the time I had more resources as him and was just got my 3rd barracks done by the time the spine crawlers destroyed my wall and 30+ zerglings just flooded in. Killing my 5 marines and 3 marauders that i had no choice but to micro and still lost. This happened at the 7 minute mark. This little glitch is too quick for Terran as I said he had 5+ spine crawlers out and 18 zerglings protecting when I just got my 3rd barracks up and constantly have near 0 minerals Marcoing well. He had started his spine crawlers before the 5 minute mark. Seems like a very unfair glitch that grants a win just like Terran can not counter 4- gate zealot rush very well at all. I have encountered this rush about 5 times today and every time I tried something different, but nothing seemed to work as I could not get the number of units I needed to destroy the spine crawlers and the zerglings. If I target the zerglings then the 5 spine crawlers spawn and I could not deal with that. Also because he doesn't have many drones anymore he doesn't have to make overlords. He just gives up a drone for a spine crawler and makes more zerglings. I hope the glitch is fixed because right now Terran can not beat it, because it's just to quick. Replay: http://www.mediafire.com/?4yygmwknr3n Any insight is helpful Thanks Just scout it... You can literally walk up, make a bunker, and your marines will take care of the rest. Unless you tried to do something greedy and don't have any marines. | ||

Unless you tried to do something greedy and don't have any marines. alas, marines in bunkers have range 6 - spine crawlers range 7. only the marauder get to par when in a a bunker, which you won't be able to build on creep. transfusion works quite well and i guess repairing does, too - but the latter screws with the whole cost argument. | ||

The Zerg loses around 100 minerals by canceling that hatchery. They also had to save up for the hatchery in the first place so their economy is really hurt by this. If you scout this, you should just start pumping marauders and build bunkers. Marauders in bunkers have equal range as spine crawlers and they do bonus damage to the spines, as well. Transfusion on the spines shouldn't be as big an issue because you can repair your bunkers as well. | ||
