Can 7RR really come out by 4:30? In my experience 7RR is moving OUT at around 4:50. Can confirm this on liquidpedia I believe. Roaches are so slow that the difference between "moving out" or "in your base" can matter, depending on the map. But maybe I just don't do it well enough.

Terrific post, thanks.

Siege's ZvP guide (search "the art of ZvP") has a great list of common defensive timings for Zerg. He recommends first overlord scout at around 4:30 to catch the tech path including how fast twilight council is started.

Good to know but make sure your build accounts for this e.g having space so that you can scout to narrow down options really helps you out.
Macro and Micro - the only M&M you need to know

Im glad this thread popped up, I was going to make one very similar this week because I was planning to try making a mobile app (for Android, I dont own an iphone) that has these timings listed with optional alerts by race, but a new project at work has come down the pipe and my spare time was crushed under terrible, terrible damage.

So, I would suggest someone work on that. I think it could be handy. I find my Chronoboost timer on my phone to be super clutch and frees up my mind to do other macro/micro without constantly checking my boosts...

worst case scenario, I might port all of this info into a spread sheet when its verified and we know that all the timings are correct. At least then it could be viewed on a mobile device easilly.

I'm too lazy to test it out myself, so if anyone knows the timings of:

2nd marine produced from the first barracks timing.

Speedling upgrade finished timing.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.

ZvZ 1 base 16 roach push with +1 and glial: 06:45
1 base 4 mutas: 07:15 ish

I don't know how common this build is, but in my PvZ, I send 4 Zealots out around 4:45.
So, 2Gate Zealot pressure - 4:45

This is great. Could you edit OP to be a little more organized?

Just an extra line here or there, and maybe seperate by race would be awesome!
P.S. I'm nub. If you'd like you can follow me @xthurst but its not worth it ill be honest

4 Warpgate - warpgates + wg research finish ~5:20
Standard 1 Gas 4 Gateway Rush - ~5:45-6:00
1 Gate Stargate - 1st Phoenix out at ~5:55
3 Gate Blink Stalker - w/ blink finishing at ~6:30
DT rush - 3 DT's out at ~6:45
3 Gate Robo: (6 zealots, 3 stalkers, 2 sentries, 2 immortals): 8:00
2 Base Colossus Timing ~13:00

Terran:
9 Rax Reaper (1 reaper): 3:15
9 Rax Marauder (2 marauders): 3:35
5 Marine 4 Marauder stim tiiming push: 5:00
2 Hellion reactor rush: 5:19
4 Hellion Reactor rush: 5:49
Tank Marine Marauder (1 tank 4 marines 2 marauders): 6:00
Cloaked Banshee - banshee out at ~6:20 cloak finishes at ~7:20

2 Port Banshee - 2 banshees out at ~6:35

3 Barracks Stim Timing Push ~7:00-7:30
Drop Blue flames Hellion in your base ~8:00

Zerg:

6 Pool (6 lings): 2:09
7 Pool (6 lings): 2:18
8 Pool (6 lings): 2:28
7 Roach Rush ~4:45-5:00
Baneling Rush (6 banelings, 6-8 speedlings): 4:30
11 Pool hydra rush (6 hydras): 6:20
1 base mutalisks (3 mutas): 7:45
2 Base Mutalisk - ~8:00-11:00

Again some of these are really old so need to be updated.

I had nothing else going on just glad someone else is looking for the timings doesn't make me feel as bad.

These timings seem fast to me. I can't do a blink stalker push faster than 7:00. I would be greatly enlightened if someone can tell me the BO to do that.
Perspective is merely an angle.

6:30 is when Blink finishes, so when you move out, you might have to factor in travel time to do a blink stalker push.
