There are no plans for a guide to other match-ups at this time. This guide was an entirely organic effort from TL community members of similar interests.

I think you have protoss and zerg confused. We definitely don't need a zerg guide;everyone is getting facerolled by the dumb infestor-bl composition, and roach remaxes anyway. This guide is about PvZ, not ZvP. So don't worry, the most faceroll/dumb race in the game isn't getting a guid, it's the protoss that actually need to outplay the zergs 10x to beat them lategame. This guide will give pointers on how to outplay them, that's why it's good.

Hope that clears up your doubts! ^^

In other words, lolbalancewhiner.

There is an error in it, it says:

◦Double Evolution Chamber: No initial aggression

But thats far from always the case, exspecially Stephano has pioneered going double evo off 6:00 gas timings and then sevely delaying roach warren to primarily rely on lings. So if you scout a early macro hatchery (around 8:00) combined with double evo then it usually means early aggression, whereas if theres only the 3 hatcheries then its less likely.

I believe that small bullet list is referring to 3 hatch play.

That may be the case but i cant see that referenced anywhere, or atleast its vague enough that it warrants a elaboration to avoid misconceptions from people learning from the thread.

I don't think it's vague at all, given that the section is called "Scouting" and includes this quote:
There are three distinct ways to play the early-mid game for Zerg from a 3 Hatch opening versus a FFE. They are characterized by the number of gasses they take and the timing at which they take them:


And the following section is called "two base play from zerg" it seems pretty clear that it's talking about three base play
When you stare into the iCCup, the iCCup stares back.
