This is a build order that Reynor used during the HomeStory Cup against Serral.
This build has been used for defensing a Roach/Ravager push, but you can also use it like an aggressive build. It has a lot of avantages:
-It can counter a 2 bases Roach/Ravager push(timing attack)
-It can also be used as a timing attack build
-Very economic:It's a build focusing on economy so if you need to switch during the game on mutas,hydras, infestor, swarm hosts or Ultralisks, it is possible
-Easy to execute
-Don't have troops that are hard to micro
The cons:
-Your oppenent can go on a fast mutas on 2 bases and deal you several damages(corruptor, mutas or hydralisks switch needed)
-A zergling rush (13/12 or 3 min 30 rush) can also cause problems in the execution of the build

We can see that both players go for a very basic build order. We can see that Serral will make a roach/ravager push with some queens(healing units) on Reynor's third base. Reynor will lose his roach warren but will destroy Serral's main army(roach/, ravager) and will quickly attack serral after he has defend this push.
