Well, Cool does a 10 overlord, but no one seems to know why. It doesn't really matter, unless you're going to make some last second decision to 10-pool or something.

against 1base stargate i think itd be better to mass queens to defend. transfusion and long range antiair is better than hydras and cost no larva or gas.
mostly harmless

in my opinion, 10 overlord gives you more time to react on the things you scouted with the 9th drone.
whether to make drones or just to react to early aggression builds from ur opponent.

One more thing that makes this build awesome: with 3 extra larva the Larva Inject isn't all-that-necessary. This leaves you energy to spread creep all over the map and use transfusions mid-battle!


i disagree with this line, when going ling/muta lings are a key part of the build and theyre really really heavy in the larvae department, you need to be spawn larvae'ing well and consistently


Yeah, I think even a third queen is a great idea - spread creep, extra injects, simply transfer to third base as soon as your third is up.

It's more or less a reactionary opening. If you scout a fast pool with the early scout (I wanna say 8 or 9), then when the 10 Overlord pops, you can either just drop the pool and still have some wiggle room. Otherwise, you just make the 3 drones.

When you 10 Overlord, you have around 150ish minerals when it pops. It's up to the information to drop the pool or make more drones at that point.

I'm a little disappointed. This is was suppose to feature this legit build with reps of pro's performing it. 3 reps. 3 horrible reps. 2 of them are of Z getting stomped and I don't think a single one of them actually shows a third hatch on 2 bases, which seems to be what part of this build is all about. Also isn't the BO supposed to be validated by these reps? And then 2/3 of them are losses.

why not 9 overlord?


Getting the Overlord at 10 supply allows you to get the minerals for a 15 Hatch faster than with a 9, as you'll effectively have more drones mining minerals for longer, even though you'll be supply capped and unable to make units.

This page was created with the intent of updating as more work was accomplished. I did not expect the front page article, and so didn't have supplementary replays available, as I've been quite busy with my term work of late. Be patient and I'll post more. But more to the point, the point of Wikis is to be community-based where revisions are conducted based on the results of new areas of analysis. If further inquiry into this build shows that it is fundamentally flawed, then it will no longer have a place in the community.
