You have 2 tech lab rax so you can easily mix in a good number of mauarders if you scout roaches. Best response by zerg is to cancel their 3rd and get infestors since you will have late tanks. Mutas is also good since terran will usually be stretched thin if he tries to take that quick 3rd.

Defend at top of the ramp to the natural with ling bling or ling bling roach, difficult to defend when playing for a macro game without blings.

Not really, if the terran allready has a third CC coming, cancelling your third (assuming it wasn't done yet) is a bad idea.
Go ling/bling heavy, dance around and force stims until the marines are too weak to put up a fight.

hello every1, i dont think i should start a new thread about it so here it goes: I have started trying something out based on demuslim's and general hellion/marine/medivac play. I try to push at around 10:00(thats what my macro and "unrefined" build allows me at current time) with a lot of +1/stim/shield marines+ a bulk of hellions and 2xmedis. I wanted to know if theres any real build out there that plays this way, because I think its really difficult for a zerg to deny the harrass, they lose like 99% of the time their 3rd at my high diamond lvl. What I generally do is :

standard hellion/reactor opening with natural exp

leave fac naked for hellions non stop
non stop marines
2nd gas after 4 reactored hellions
from then on u should have production on 1 reactored rax/2 rax with stim and shields finishing. At the same time u need a fast ebay for the +1, last tech structure is a starport which is switched on the reactor asap and double medivacs are what defines the "timing" of the attack. heres the rep for it: http://drop.sc/148676

To sum up: does such a timing push have any serious issue at a masters lvl game? Has it been refined and used by some1 that I can search and copy from? I find demuslim push excellent but im just not confident enough without my medivacs out(which defines my tvp as well).

Once again, im just asking for help im not really suggesting or taking credit for anything, im just diamond.

I've been doing this recently and I'm fairly certain that the idea is to get about 6-8 hellions for splash damage, bunch of marines and attack with either 2 or 4 medivacs to kill the 3rd base while securing yours.
