It is really helpful to watch the replays, because you really do what you have written in your guide every single game. I have two questions though:
1.) Your Buildorder vs 1GateExpand says that you want to get the Roach Warren after Lair at around 52 supply. I have watched three of your replays against 1GateExpand so far and you always got your Roach Warren before Lair at around 40 Supply. I know that it is not a big difference, but i am curious if there is a reason for this ;-)
2.) Is there a maximum number of drones for you? In the replays i have watched so far you had less drones than other zerg players get, i do not think that you ever hit 80 drones.

wow no shout out for me... really gerbil ...
good guide overall, like the DT part
|
I really like the structure of this guide, I may steal some the way you show the build orders. Thanks for the contribution!
|

Hope many zergs read through it, gerbil is a great player also!

Go for +1 carapace on the evo chamber against FFE builds. That way your lings won't be absolutely worthless.

Gerbil your a bird bud GET @ ME. See you this winter term in waterloo ya dustpin ill pick your strat apart with my leettoss builds.

Thanks for the amazing guide Gerbil. Incredibly detailed!
This is a prime example of why this community is amazing.

Awesome guide! I've been having trouble with ZvP lately, and the timings outlined here will help incredibly. Thanks so much!
|
Someone spotlight this post.
|
great read, make a zvt and maybe zvz!
|
Gerbil fighting!
I can't wait to dissect this and take all my notes. T.T
I hate this matchup so so so so so much, so this post is like a godsend to me.

Really amazing guide, I will look into using 12 Pool rather than 14/14.
|
For the vs Forge expo section, I think it might be safe to drone a bit longer than suggested. The somewhat standard 14 pool gasless expo int 4 hatch goes up to about 70 supply (including 3 queens and 2 zerglings, 3 gas, 1 warren, 1 evo) before switching over to units. Obviously the pool timing you put out originally will muddy things, but I believe since you get the faster queen it should be safe. Something to try out for people testing around with this build.
Also, worth a try is getting the 3rd hatch a bit quicker. 14 pool takes it's 3rd hatch @ 26 supply by delaying an overlord; once again, the pool/queen timing might throw this off, but it's worth a try to see what you can come up with.
Cool guide, Thanks.

gerbs is beautiful canadian that smokes maple leaves and his guide is baller.
|
really great guide, already helped me a lot!
|
great material, this will offer me different options then 6 pooling every ZvP
|
This guide already helped me so much! I have over 50% win against Gate-Openers, which is very good for ZvP for me 
But i really need a guide like this against FFE

Do you think your lategame plan of being aggressive with RoachLingInfestor works on Tal'Darim Alter? I've had trouble there where a Protoss goes up to 3 base and it feels really hard to put any kind of pressure on him due to the way the map is built. Then he rolls out with a Stalker/Colossus army before I've got up to Broodlords (while I'm sitting on 3k+ minerals) and I'm just streaming 5-6 hatches' worth of roachling into him and getting crushed.
Is adding a ton of spine crawlers a good idea to deal with this? I've had decent results with that but I feel better protosses would just take a 4th or switch to warp prism harass or do something to circumvent the spines.
Thanks for the guide too!
