Zerg Advanced Tips


 * When you run out of rocks for your drones to mine, use larva's massive rockfall ability to obtain more rocks
 * Using Massive Rockfalls near miners is an excellent way to reduce their base area and delay the miners
 * Broodlings are controllable by the player. This can be useful for attacking or mining.
 * The Queen's Corrosive Sprayer and Seismic Shot are excellent ways to clear minefields.
 * Creating Spawning Pools near miners can be an effective way to delay the miners as it acts as a very tanky creep tumor at the cost of 100/100. This is especially good to deny early Vespene refineries and the 6 broodlings that spawn when destroyed are strong early on.
 * You can chain Sticky Slime together with your teammate for a perma-fungal growth.
 * Hide your ziggers inside rocks to protect them and always salvage any Zigger that is about to die
 * Using a Nydus on the Overmind during an earthquake is a way to mass spawns before sending them at miners. This is because units will spawn at the Overmind and be stuck there until the Nydus ends. This will not work if the rocks protecting the Overmind is destroyed.
 * At the start of the game, concentrate both your hero and a drone on clay and stone rocks to get enough funds to get larvae as soon as possible
 * Take advantage of Spawn Infestor from Hatchery whenever it is off cooldown
 * In most games, you can keep tabs on miners' progress by looking at the location of the nuke on the minimap
 * Sync spawners together so all the units spawn at once for maximum spawner efficiency. Even better is if you share control with your teammates to sync their spawners to yours.
 * Always carry 1 stem cells whenever possible.
 * Allow the player with the highest mutation points to get the vespene geyser for maximum efficiency
 * If you happen to catch a miner alone in a narrow hole, you can spawn creep and make buildings to block the miner from escaping
 * Destroying a mechanic's terrazine will disable him from making tanks and his existing tanks will be drained of energy rapidly
 * Early on, don't try to 1 vs 1 miners. You'll need more stats, spawns, and items to properly engage them
 * As Ultralisk, if you can't find any units to devour, you can teleport a larva to you to consume.
