Very nice read, thank you!

I never knew you could click on a bunker and stim the marines inside... I feel silly now. =D

When I go bio in TvP/TvT, I get +1 armor for ships (Reason: Armoy for +2 weapon/armor and +3, and you don't really use it alot when there's no colo, so the reason is to make ur medivacs more resiliant) This should help you on keeping your units alive more, because sometimes protoss/terrans tend to focus your medivacs.

U wanna get a head start on the upgrades because if they tech switch all of the sudden you have a significant disadvantage

Good stuff.

I would make one small change. Building supply depots for vision is good, but I think its good to build them slightly inland from the edge of your base. They can still spot, but you can defend w/ marines so they don't become insta banshee or muta food.

One extra tip that you could use:

When splitting units between multiple bunkers (in the case of defending roach-bane all-ins), make sure to have at least 2 marines in each bunker so the Zerg doesn't know which bunkers to avoid.

There's a visual difference between bunkers that have one marine and ones with two or more (the middle portion of the bunker sinks when a second marine joins the party). If a Zerg can see that there's only one unit in the bunker, he won't waste precious banes trying to blow it up.
my hair is a wookie, your argument is invalid

If people open with 1-1-1 i dont think its a issue since viking will be out in time. But yes u could always space it out by 1 square to defend if you want

I open up 1 rax fe --> 2 more rax, so banshee harass is always a problem. Depots on edge = dead.

Well on tips guide i posted that u rather lose depot than scvs. It takes 2 shots for a banshee to kill scv. It takes ALOT of shots for depot to die.

These tips are excellent for the new players! I'm in masters and I still forget to send a scout ahead of my army

The 2 scv queueing is actually brilliant, and will be incorporating it into play. A lot of no brainers but i'm pretty dumb sometimes and overlook things like triple starport for broods, so very good guide. tyvm

I write out tips on a notepad beside my computer, these types of things can make things much easier to remember.
