Description

Standard ZvZ from Lambo replay

  • please notice as it is a replay not everything is to be taken 100% as for example the 8 3:15 lings in this case are not mandatory
  • you don't need to pull off of gas and other details like that if you feel like it would just hurt you more than it would help.

Analysis

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)
