been having lots of trouble in TvZ against roach/ravager into roach/hydra. I find that in the early-mid games when I try to counter them with tanks the ravagers just destroy the tanks too quickly and the roaches just melt the rest of my army despite upgrade advantage. What is a good composition to fight off roach/rav? | ||

Leapfrog tanks, unsiege a couple and shift-siege them so the zerg can never catch you unsieged. If you use that composition and aren't completely unsieged on creep and lose, it's a macro issue. | ||

Also doabl with a hellion / SCV - tho it gets problematic if he's "clever" enough to notjust A move the locusts | ||

And when it comes to making banshees / lib - my winrate in TvZ since the patch has been closely linked to how close to 100% my starport is allocating time to ravens | ||

You can defend with good micro not to mention by the time a big force arrives you'll have a widow which usually makes it so they have to screw off. Just make sure you don't move your reaper out (2 player maps) until you kill theirs. (If you scout a reaper expand that is) | ||

Think of it like this you're throwing away 8 marines and 1 medivac each time to kill workers and queens. Sure you lose some units but Zerg can never break your tankline and at the end of it all one player has a huge economy the other just has some roaches and hardly any drones. (Libs are an option too) But yeah just make marauders and tanks and drop whenever he goes to attack you. Roaches are so slow that if hes on your side and you're on his side hes bound to lose something! :D | ||

P.S. - I've noticed that my first push was not good. Need I to do that? Attacking when hold his poke? I'm thinking about cut widow mines and produce liberators. http://ggtracker.com/matches/6892323 | ||

I've been doing strange old version of Forgg's hellbat pushes and have been losing horribly. Feels bad. Will go for tank+drops, thanks | ||
