anything like this for the zerg-bugs?

one of the best parts about this guide is the detail on scouting. It's more important than the build itself IMO.

Constant aggression like this agaisnt zerg is really strong. If your first push kills all his creep tumors, then the next time you push it will be a lot easier for you. Putting pressure on Zergs like this also forces them to make mistakes, if a zerg misses larva injects then they lose larva forever. If you forget to drop mules for a while you can always go back to your base and drop 6 at the same time, the Zerg can't do that and if you force them to miss injects then they will not be able to keep up with your constant pressure.


I am a Zerg and the guide was very helpful to get another view point. These are the key points I saw that would apply for my games... some high level concepts there.

I think many players underestimate the importance of creep spread. Mid-game tempo in TvZ is largely dependent on how much purple goop is on the map.

Nice guide! Really strong standard stuff in here.

Very awesome guide (even if you're not a Terran). Is it just me, or are way too few Terran and Zerg guides. Maybe it's just my selective attention (cuz I'm toss), but I seem to be seeing only Toss guides in the forum.

Wow Drewbie, I cannot thank enough. This came at a perfect time as well since I just decided to make a comeback to SC2 ladder as a terran. I came here looking for some basic builds to start with but this is way better. Thanks so much for bothering.

IdrA and Drewbie have had a cute little rivalry going on, whenever they meet

Drewbie, helping out e-sports noobs! Yay!
