As some people in the lotv Terran help me thread say, hydras are "marines on roids" at the moment. | ||

First thing i notice is that you make 6 lings. It's a small thing to gripe on but you don't need 6, stick with 4 in the beginning. Next strange thing is that at about 3:35 you have enough to make a 3rd hatch, you've seen the fast expo into marines from terran yet you decide to take another gas and add two evos along with another queen - before either a third or lair. At this point you should probably have taken the third, you seem indecisive here. When the evos finish you don't start upgrades - your build is not quite optimal. You should time the evo chambers in such a way that you can start 1/1 immediately when they finish. You're also still on only 2 gas at 4:30 with 2 evos, a bane nest and a lair on the way - no way you can afford 1/1, bane speed and some sort of tech when lair finishes, need earlier gas. You also make 20 or so lings at 4:30 without having scouted that something is headed your way. A ling scouting the front and a speed ovie in the main would have told you you could easily have made a round of drones here before going into lings. 4:50 - you make a spire without even having 2 saturated bases. This seems very rushed considering your setup, you should stay on 2 base a bit longer, get a way faster lair and get all your gas faster if you wanna be rushing spire. This sort of middle of the road, some lings some drones, fast tech with too little gas just leaves you with less than you could have had. Still no upgrades started, might I add - why even get the evos before spire if you're planning to rush muta? No bane speed either, weird. At 5:20, still no scout of the front and a bunch of lings that could have been drones. Still no upgrades and only 45 drones to his 40, you could easily have been at at least 55 drones right now. I'm at 6:40 and there's really no reason to keep watching, you tighten up that early build, build as many drones as you can (scout with lings at the front and suicide an overlord or two to know how many "as many as you can" really is) and don't get buildings before you need them and you'll roll over a terran like this. | ||
