Hey there,

was wondering if anyone worked the timings out for the fastest way to get speedlings and still maintain a good econ build. Specifically I'm looking to do this on "Stepes of War" as I find that early speedlings really help against a 4 gate toss rush.

I usually like to go 15 pool on this map to maintain a good economy. So after 15 pool what should my build order be so I can do speedling research as soon as my pool is ready?

Thx

Generally what I do is get a 14 gas and then a 14 pool. If you do the timing right you will have 100 gas when your pool finishes.

My build is drone up till 10/10.
do the double extractor trick where you cancel after you build extractor so you have 12/10.
build gas around 100 minerals
build pool at 200

15 gas 15pool.
Take first drone off of gas at 92.
Hatchery depending on how many lings you want. Usually I get it around 20 supply

edit: Second queen at either 22 or 23 supply. Overlord straight after and put drones back on gas.

depends if u just want the speed as early as possible or if u acctually want some units aswell

14gas
13pool
16drone
18queen
lord
spam lings and spawn larva asap with queen
build a lord at 22/26
use spawned larva for lings


once they are done u will have 18lings and if u attack asap and the zerg went FE it should be GG right there, vs mostly everything else GZ with map control now just transist into whatever u scouted

u can expand, 2nd hach in main or lair while ur waiting for ur last lings so its not all-in, this BO got me to top plat in my league atleast

good luck
