What upgrade do you get with the second evo? I was under the impression that carapace lings aren't worth the cost vs toss because so many of their units do such high damage to lings already.

If the Zealots have a damage upgrade they only need two attacks instead of three. So you get the Armor Upgrade to negate their Upgrade Advantage. The style doesn't really use ranged units anyways (besides Queens sometimes???)

^Yeah what Railgan said. It can make quite a nice difference in some situations.

Oh god just saw Railgans post:

I often play versus pure adept into phoenix into PICA on ladder and am a bit confused about the drone count.

The same goes for Warpprism Adept stye on Ruins of Endion off 2 bases


I just saw this... over 2 months later haha sorry.

I think you need to keep scouting to make sure they don't go over 5 gates. If mass adept I think you need roaches.

Otherwise you just want to get a big wave of lings and 5 banes to pop by 4:40 when the fastest 7 glaive adept timing can hit

I usually just retake gas at 3:30, get a fast bane nest and +1 melee. I keep ~4-8 Lings at home to morph into banes and have some lings harrassing him / spotting / denying his 3rd. As soon as he moves out -> Spam the lings. Works great
