I am not sure why you are saying you can't get a queen and stating it as a fact when you are wrong. You can and I do every time. And the build that I do is meant to do either hatch first or 15P, both work. The better one is obviously hatch first.

Blade, how often do you end up building roaches in ZvT these days? Most pro ZvT games i see vs reaper openings get the third hatch started right when ling speed finishes and you have a brief map control window before hellion/reaper pressure begins. Then, they defend with queens/lings. I like the value of having a RW if you find they're going mech, but it seems less optimal to defend standard hellion/reaper pressure with roaches.

Sorry if this question has been answered already. Thanks!

Edit: Also! How do you feel about builds that choose lair before +1/+1? With the return of hellion/banshee openers to the meta, seems like faster overseers could be nice, though spores would work if you're careful about not getting them killed by ground units.
