Analysis

Use first 2 lings to scout, try to keep them alive to see if he's making lings or drones. If your initial OL see early lings coming, cut drones sooner (18 supply) and save larva for lings of your own.

Your exact gas timing will depend on your drone count. If you make extra speedlings for aggression or defense, delay your gas a bit.

After you reach 2 base saturation, start ling production until your spire finishes and you start ~8 or 9 mutas. Against roach play, make ~12 drones for your third and switch to roaches yourself while harassing with mutas and lings. You should be able to hit a big +1 and roach speed timing with an army supply advantage since he was investing in muta defense.

Against muta play, start +1 carapace for mutas and take gas at your third ASAP.

@dkwl93, you take the spire immediately upon the completion of the lair.

Would be a good build except you didn't add a time for the spire
