Zerg vs Protoss (Lost Temple) Strategy #2 Description: Quick Lurkers used in conjunction with an Offensive Hatch to contain and ensure victory. This strategy is like the first one I made mention of. It's something you wouldn't want to do twice in a row, but if you use this properly, it's an instant victory. Follow the advice given in the first strategy to help you through the begining stages of the game. I.e. spawned location. You will be required to power more in this strategy. You'll want about 9 Drones at your expansion on minerals and 10 in your main on minerals. Build an Extractor as early as you have in the previous strategy. Mix Ling and Drone production. Just make enough Lings to hold your opponents Zealots (As illustrated in this picture.) No more than is required. You will need the Minerals to produce Drones/Tech You can also power more by building a Sunken and making less Lings. Start your second Extractor later than your first. You need the Mineral intake for now. Build your second Extractor as soon as you can afford to pull 3 Drones off of Minerals. As soon as you aquire 100 Vespene, morph a Lair. Continue keeping up with Lings. See if you can do any damage with them. Build a Hydralisk Den when your Lair is half way complete. Your Hydralisk Den and Lair will finish upgrading at approximately the same time. As soon as Lair is complete, research Lurker upgrade. Make as many Hydras as your Vespene/Minerals will afford. All you need are 4-5 Hydras really. As soon as your Lurker upgrade is complete, morph the Hydras. Take your force to the Protoss base, and bring a Drone along. Build a Hatchery outside of his natural, and place your Lurkers around the Hatchery like this. (See next page.) |
