ZvT

[br0ken.]

a pretty good strat for ZvT...

9/9 build a hatch near your choke
make another drone, make a spawning pool
set up a few sunkens - 2 or 3 only - near your hatchery as you start teching to guardians
wait for your creep to advance and set up a few more sunkens at the edge of your creep.
repeat this, so that you have very spaced out sunkens, in pairs of two, going down the stretch of your choke point.
once you have reached the end of your choke, put a sunken between each pair you have made.
throw up a few spores near your main in case of wraiths.

the point of this is, when your terran opponent sees sunkens, he will most likely start working towards tanks. however by spacing out the sunkens, he will have to siege/unsiege and slowly advance towards you. this takes longer than it seems, especially since you will be harrasing his tanks with lings and/or muties. by the time he breaks through, your guards should easily defeat his rines and tanks.

if he decides to go quick BCs, you should have your guardians before he has more than 1 or 2. potential problems are if he goes mass marines + ups, or wraiths... however most people wont go wraiths against zerg because of the overlords.

guess what br0ken..

[Samba]

Wow....... i dont think anyone ever knew to do this vs terran

*sighs in sarcasm..*

[Funky]

so guess..

[Opi]

of course, this is all assuming that they are going to tank push you.

(which does happen the vast majority of the time).

[Pating]

yeah, guess what br0ken.. ( I can add like 1229 zvt replays here with that strat -.- )

[pen]

i dont think you need a choke zvt..
or maybe i've just been playin noob terran players recently

[Pating]

newbs playing newbs, that would be nice stalife -.-

[sLeeT]

Oh.... my...... god............ stroke of genious :) I would never have thought to make sunks as defence.. I just thought they were pretty =/

[pen]

get on sc, ima own you up in zvt keke

[Opi]

same here, i really like it how the tentacle looks like a tounge, it turns me on. :D


(jk or course....right?)

[pen]

i got a better strat.
u keep building up hatcheries + drones until u have about 20 hatcheries and 60 psi with drones only.
start making hydras and own them up
of course, u gotta hope that they dont scout you or attack you til then.

[br0ken.]

ouch... yall are so mean. wats a poor noobie like me to do?

1 post would have done... i didn't need to be told it was obvious 17 times. it had become kind of... obvious... by then.

well my sincerest apologies for wasting your time, if there is anything i can do to give you those 24 seconds of your life back, by all means, ask away.

[InvincibilitY]

Stalife... u must sunk choke, otherwise rines will walk around, killing anything that isnt in sunken range. Becomes even more important on BW, when medics keep rines alive.

[nicksson]

its more skilled to play without sunks in choke imo =)

[eNzo]

I've never sunken choked. :eek:
I like the old fashioned 3 sided attack. <3

[angel.white]

works vs a tank push, but a smart terran has easy counters

for example, fast drops (fbats or tanks)

or, as negro showed me, just mass rines and go quick armor (or armor/attack) and once youre 1-1 with range, your rines will easily wipe the shit out of those sunks.

marines with 1 armor take 3 hits from a sunk instead of 2, and when they're all swarmed together vs those spread out sunks, they just eat up zergies

[eNtitY~]

nice too see you back angel.

[DaRkReBeL]

lol.........a z can not surive w/o a choke sunk or quick lurks w/o going one of the other since this is orig the ladder isnt possible so u must choke sunk unless ur playin a newb ran but that start is easily owned espeically the spacing out by mass rines but espeically on bw they have medics

[InvincibilitY]

I dont usually space sunks out. I group them all together, and go right to fast mutas. You'd all be suprised to know that mutas will pwn a terran realfast. U just need some LT experience, and fast hands to weed out possible irridate. Guards work well too.

And if u sunk choke right, he wont get in, so all thats left is to worry about drops. very predictable.

[StIpO-]

yea if he drops like tanks behind yur choke yur dead....

[StIpO-]

i dont mean 2 tanks i mean like 6 dropships(12 tanks at main)
