EPTThese zergies have no idea how fucking hard a 6 rax +1 armor (two techlab and 4 reactors) hits at 10 minutes and I see them doing all kinds of weird shit to hold it off.
For the record, I bring about 10 scvs with me. I abuse hold position.

1) The Build works still fine no so no updates  2) New Replays may come in a few weeks, i had to take a break cause of university and now getting into sc2 again @ 9-BiT: It depends on your personal playstyle. I think that bf hellions can sometimes be worth it, especially vs a very ling focused player but they really cut into your early/midgame dps as marines do better there, especially before the bf is started. With the way the build works you could get bf after the medivacs and that may not be worth it. You can adjust to your personal prefrence there. Thros on the other side are very expencive and after your bio gets cleaned up they are easily picked apart by zerglings. | ||

Before this, I was basically losing EVERY TvZ in the lategame because I never knew how to apply pressure in the early and mid game. | ||

or when the first attack happens? here? @ 2 Medivacs -> Push out and take Third | ||

The Medivac Push is the second push and it is highly adviced to move out right when you start the medivacs so that you can join the army with the medivacs half way cross map and attack as early as possible with them. The early you get there the better off you are. That's why the crisp opening is so important cause if you are behind like 1-2 minutes with your medivacs and therefore the push you will straight up lose the engagement cause zergs production capacity is too high. | ||

I love how you've given all sorts of options in the mid and late game describing what one should do in case of baneling busts or 2 base roach all-ins. Thanks again. | ||

If you get just surrounded by speedlings then you were just not careful enough, even though you should have had scouted a gas opening! If you get sourrounded that way in the open you are most definitly a bit behind and you must be very careful with your medivacs cause they will be banelings ready waiting. But normally you should be very careful when scouting gas opening and not getting crushed like that. If you socut a gasless opening you have to improve your micro if you still trade badly vs slow lings cause they are no threat even with queen support or sth like that. You can also always retreat of creep away from queens etc. and kite the slowlings to death. tl:tr Be extra carefil vs gas openings and do not even move out if you do not scout a third by the time your cs is about 70% done. Vs gaseless opening you should be able to trade even if you stutterstep correctly. | ||

do pre-splits, put marauders in front, and u're absolutely fine!! If you have enough skill, after the pre-split, you can focus infestors with your marauders.. that's essential after a few battles, so the zerg player can't accumulate infestors... he will have to spend gas in new infestors the whole time.. so you will have bigger window before ultras/brood lords... gl | ||
