Notes from Lambos ZvZ guide (Those notes are written so I myself can understand them but maybe you can use them, they are definitly not without spelling errors and general grammar mistakes)

Lambos guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73RNbJdgCMc&t

notes:

Vs mutas

• economic muta (66 drones) try to secure 4th base

• if faster muta, dont get fourth base until lurkers

• vs roach muta (roaches into mutas into roaches), roach hydra is okay

• don't move out until vipers (parasitic bomb for mutas)

• burrow move roaches are very good try to distract him from bullying you on your side

• defend with queens and spores, 1 spore each base when mutas can hit and 1 inbetween, add more as time goes on

• 2 lurkers on each base, asap

• lurker burrow is important

• roaches and banes at third to defend

• don't attack vs ultralisks, can attack vs lurkers or with good trades prior vs ultralisk

Vs Pool first

• bane nest as normal, don't pull off gas

• vs all in 2 queens and morph banes on ramp, pull drones to main temporarily

Vs 2 base lair

• scout if roach warren is wiggling, if not it can be nydus or mutas

• roach warren at 3:40 will defend against nydus and roach ling all in in time (8 blind roaches)

• 10 lings at 3:35 ish to blindcounter speedlings, it's before you will be able to scout if roach speed is coming up. Will also help deny third too (10 lings beat 3 roaches, 8 don't)

• vs speedling pressure just make more lings

Vs +1 carapace - can't be both roach warren and evolution chamber at fast timing

Vs Ling bane all in

• bane nest in back, 3 building wall off, spine if he is going to morph on your side (Spotted by third overlord)

• match oponnents zerglings +2 more lings

Micro/army management details

• always concave

• can try to cut off with 5 roaches to base 4th/3rd and defensive concave to stop them defending

• split up army with multitask

• can also split army up in 2 groups and take fights where your numbers are superior

• always be on the move seeking oppertunity

• put 6 roaches vs 4 roaches 9 vs 6 etc.

• always good to kite back with corrosive biles

3 hatch before pool

• can play standard but recommends 8 speedlings

General

• Force yourself to scout

• 1st overlord to natural unless aspecific path is required to spot 12 pool lings

• 2nd overlord to also entrance

• 3rd overlord outside natural somewhere for general vision

• 4th overlord to your own 3rd base second entrence (made from natural, always)

• take 3rd base that gives worse engagement (concave) for opponent and worse re-positioning paths

• overlord is good with ledges vs queens

• 16 hatch 19 and 20 drone, third overlord (21) in main with lings in the nat

• wait till you see the creep/building hatch to use your larvae (26) if "pool first" make 4 lings

• pull 2 drones off at 100 gas then rally a drone into gas

• look at his drone count to determine if he is pressuring you with a few lings (hatch first)

• make 2 more lings than your oponnent to make engagements easier

• walloff with banenest, roach warren and evolution chamber

• inject main at 42 then 42 queen. Main queen goes to natural and natural queen goes to third for inject and defense vs lings

• don't spread creep unless mutas or it's on, don't skip injects they are more important

• hide 2 lings to scout, just scout with 2 lings in general

• 2nd and 3rd gas with 40 drones and additional drone production

• roach warren at the same time as lair

• overlord speed with 100 gas after 100 gas for lair which is after 100 gas for +1 ranged

• Use leftover zerglings with overlord speed to drop banes

• when overlord speed finishes send out overlords (with patrol to dodge corrosive) to get map vision

• replace overlords you morph overseers with

• scout with lings on evo chamber to see if wiggling,

Lambo notes -the third drone for the first gas will be rallyed into the gas from the first inject so a drone that i make at 37~ supply

-you take the 4th-6th gas once your 3 mineral lines are fully saturated

• if you are uncertain about the buildorder the Replays are uploaded to Mediafire here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/a5xa75...

-if you play vs a player that pressures you with Lings/ Lings+Banes make sure to always put aside 1-2 Lings somewhere on your opponents side of the map, so that you can scout with them as soon as you have time to do so

-if you play vs a quick third without a Banenest and an early Roachwarren also make the Rochwarren earlier

-vs an early RoachLing all in off 1 gas you can hold with LingBane only

-the amount of drones for Roach all ins are:

27Drone 1 gas

32Drone 2 gas

41Drone 3 gas

52Drone 4 gas

58Drone 5 gas

in order to defend those u can pretty much go to the dronecount the next all in would have (vs the 58 Drone one 66 drones and cancel additional upgrades and 4th)
