Description

8 Min Roach Max w/ +1 Range

This build is a little challenging requiring strong macro to actually nail the timing, but theoretically, once you finish your macro, you can mostly just a-move across the map.

To transition behind the build, since we've already committed to +1 range, it would make sense to try and add in ravagers, hydra, and lurkers while teching to hive and getting upgrades.

Analysis

It's a strong, scary push that can catch a lot of Terran players off-guard if they don't have a lot of defense. This was featured in ViBE's bronze to GM series.
