Learn to play late game. If you have problems scouting, research hallucination after warpgates and hallucinate a phoenix every minute or so.


Everyone keeps telling me to take a third when i havent figured out how to pressure when building my 2nd. Give up pressure? Or change my aggression altogether?


Give up pressure. In fact if he DOES throw a few spines, you may want to build a 3rd as quickly as possible (plock down the 2 and 3 Nexi after each other). Remember, the Zerg is spending every single larve on drones, he won't have units for a while. Then enjoy making Colossi out of 3 robos + stalkers.

Alternitevly, if you HAVE to be aggressive. Go 2 gate ---> Robo ---> +2 gate ----> Warp Prism and start spamming Zealots + a few stalkers. You won't take out his natural (Spines will stop you) but he can kiss his main goodbye. (Note: Use 1 gaser for this build, Warp Prism is gas-free, so only the Robo + 3-4 stalker(to kill kiting queens) are requiring gas.

Why do you feel the need to pressure him? If you take an early third you can outmacro him

The problem of Queens is not Queens themselves but very cheap and effective transfusion. The Day9 daily-cast showed it one day.
As for offensive Queens play - it can be very effective late game with creep spread right to opponent's base, that is not so difficult when you have really a lot of queens.
Also Queens still aren't treat as armored (nor light) and don't get additional damage from Stalkers, Immortals, Marauders... So with proper macro/micro late game mass queens strat can be very effective.

Use phoenix + void rays if he doesn't have spores.
