    New test build

    Hey everyone. I started playing SC2 again while I wait for my PC to get ordered and what not.
    So far this build works against toss and terran,I haven't gotten a chance to use it against zerg. My first actual build so bear with me, and I'll try to explain as easy as I can.

    9 - Overlord then drones
    15 - Hatchery
    14 - spawn pool then a few drones but make sure you have 200 minerals after spawn pool.
    Soon as spawn pool is done, get 1 gas and 2 spine crawlers, then roach warren.
    Continue droning.
    Soon as roach warren is done build 4 or 5.
    build more roaches depending on what your opponent is doing and what you've scouted.
    If I can't scout my opponent or don't know what they're doing I get a fast lair and hydras for any air units they may have.
    I also start upgrading units early. Range / armor. This makes fighting units that are supposed to counter these units a lot easier

    From there I just continue expanding droning a bit and pump out a ton of roach / hydra and mix in some infestors. So far it's worked pretty well. I put the roaches up front to take hits while hydras just sit back and add in extra damage.

    Just kind of a starting build for me that's seem to work really well, seems to negate the units that are supposed to counter these as long as you have a lot as you should being zerg.

    Re: New test build

    My main problem with this build would be the fact that your going blind roachs and blind hydras really. I mean roachs are always good in ZvP so in that case its ok to throw it down, and when the toss sees it he will start making units to protect himself. Though in vT and vZ I dont think you need to thrown down the roachs unless you see something that they do that would require a roach reaction. Also its a similar thing with the hydras, cuz most toss for colossi which raped hydras instead of air. And Terran usually strat for vZ is tank and marine, so hydras die very fast againt the tanks. But this is all just from games ive watched. I'm just suggesting not throwning down blind tech and see what your oppentent is doing before you do so.

    But as you say it works well for you so if it aint broke down fix it lol. And good to see other people interested in sc2
