There must be some SC2 players lurking in AG.

Zerg cerebrates, unite!

I play sc2, although not recently. My laptop can't really handle the game very well, 10-15 fps, gets draining after a time. Plus, they pretty much messed up the multiplayer melee, they took out so many units...I mean really, why?

To even out the powers of the races (I agree it sucks I want my dang Goliaths).

I hate zerg :P I can play fairly well as either of the other two races.

>.> Starcraft 1 still has tons of players , Both games have different playstyles so the reduced amount of units balances out.
Oh and in starcraft 2 Go zerg ! When I randomly get it
Otherwise I eat zerg cause I am a terran

Zerg Wins :>

10 Pool Speedling let's me win a game in, well, my best record with that build is:
*Drum Roll...*
4 minutes 28 seconds!

And no, I'm not kidding :>

I bet you this forum will go far, every single one I make barely gets past first page :O

I personally like the 10 pool then once I build the pool I make and overlord ... Oh i will just put it in a nice special format
Drones till 10 supply
10/10 pool
9/10 overlord and drone
14/18 queen (I could be wrong on supply number but once you get the pool I got queen )
Right after queen or while the queen is being made I get 2 lings then once I get the queen and 4 lings I get drones till about 24 supply then I expand (very important) and before 24 supply around 18 I get the roach warren , After that part of the build I chance my build with scouting and all I find the 10/9 pool is good if the enemy tries going early pressure , But it also keeps enough drones that if they dont have early pressure you can stay in the macro game

I use the 10 Pool Speedling Build, it's also good for transitioning

10 - Spawn Pool
9 - Drone
10 - Extractor
9 - Drone
10 - Overlord
10 - Zergling
11 - Zergling
12 - Zergling
13 - Zergling
14 - Drone
14 - Speedling Upgrade

After that I make a Drone + Queen then Overlord. Then go from there

Highfire dont you think that getting the speed upgrade around 12 would do better with the amount of lings you produce ? Or is it just me and my love for upgrades XD ?

I got it from Liquipedia:
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/10_Pool_Speedling

This build ties in perfectly for when you're done with the Drone and can purchase the boost, and when the Overlord is spawned with the Spawning Pool being created.

Trust me, I think this is most efficient

Hrmm... I just found the 7 Roach Rush Build in General now. It's a huge build but it said you should have 7 Roaches at 4:50, wow.

I might try it :>

It's hard to learn though! :<

My friend the first build he learned to do was 7 roach ... He didnt even mean to .
So needless to say he can win the game pretty fast

Nobody knows how to wall anymore.

In team games, I see terrans rushed...and they DONT REPAIR THEIR WALL.

Then 2 zealots are in their base and they die...

Anyway, what's the # of bases required for each race now? Used to be zerg needs one more than protoss needs one more than terran...dunno now, especially with queens/mules.

SC2 ID is on my profile, in bronze/silverish, keep getting cheesed =/

As for SC1...on USEast I only really see UMS games, some BGH, every so often some 1v1 obs, not much going on anymore =( Seems like it's dieing...Anyone have the Battlecruiser Command map? Lost it when I reformatted my other computer.

On a side note, what's everyone's APM?

Yeah Its a shame when I do random team games , Cause normally I am the only terran and I wall off great But if I feel like playing as protoss or zerg I have to fear :P

The number of bases recommended for each race is 3 or mor for zerg if the game goes about 20 minutes.
2 for protoss at anystage of the game is Insanely hard to beat .
And for terran most people 2 base but you will eventually need 3 :P

When I apm spam I can easily hit 200 or more apm , But when I dont apm spam (I only apm spam when showing off ) I hit about 80 to 100

>.> Im sorry I said the amount of zerg bases wrong :P

Zerg normally get 3 base around the 10 or 15 mark , In a game about 30 minutes if they can they want all the expos they can hold onto

This is NEVER the case for me

Since I've been Zerg I've only ever required 2 expansions, but then again - that is because I am using the 10 Pool Speedling

I'm thinking of doing the 7 Roach Rush, mind you :<

Which one should I dooooo? :O

I think I should do the 10 Pool Speedling for Zerg and Protoss, but the 7 Roach Rush for Terran.

Any ideas?
