Starcraft 2 Zerg Strategy – Baneling Guide
Everyone loves explosions.  This is especially true when its your opponents that is exploding.  While Starcraft 2 Zerg lack the certain overkill flair of a Tactical Nuke, they have their own impressive explosions in the form of Zerg Banelings.  These little mutated Zerglings ram head first into their target and in the blink of an eye, their target is suddenly missing a huge amount of health.  Granted, the Baneling doesn’t survive the fun, but its still a ton of fun to watch. Papp has given us several awesome guides on utilizing Zerg units to their full potential.  His Baneling guide is no different.  He goes through and explains how to best utilize a Baneling group and goes over the advanced tactics involved in using them with other units.  Everything from a Mass Baneling steam-roller, to the Overlord Bomber, its all here.  Enjoy this awesome guide from Papp.  Also remember to check out our awesome Guide Forums for even more great Starcraft 2 Strategies.
Starcraft Zerg Strategy – Fast Roaches Versus Terran
This build has developed into a standard opening build versus Starcraft 2 Terran players.  The Fast Roach build takes advantage of the Roach armor as a counter to an early Marine buildup.  The build proves effective against most early Terran strategies with only a couple exceptions. An early bio rush or an early push to Starport tech is an effective counter for this build.  You should always be sure to scout and to identify these potential threats.  You can identify an early bio push by scouting and seeing proxy barracks or potentially from multiple racks in their base with no tech lab or with multiple reactors.  You can identify a push to Starport if you scout a racks and factory without addons. If either of those builds show up during scouting, you may want to opt for a different build.  If neither build is apparent then continue pushing into fast Zerg Roaches with this build.
Starcraft Zerg Strategy – How to Beat Terran Air Units
The switch to air units in the mid to late game can be a very powerful one.  This is especially true when the switch is built to counter.  Starcraft 2 Zerg air units have some excellent counters to their Terran counterparts.  Even
Starcraft Zerg Strategy – Beating Vikings
In a game that switches that switches often between air and ground, this unit is the ultimate in versatility.  It may lack the ability to control both air and ground at the same time, but in the hands of a good micro-er, this deficiency should be hardly noticed.  Its cheap and easy to control, which makes them a problem when you’re facing them en masse. A lot of Zerg strategy revolves around the ground game.  With the exception of the Hydralisks, its hard to counter air of any sizable force until the later game.  Corrupters are excellent, but take a bit of teching to reach.  So, lets take a look at how you can deal with a huge group of Vikings coming at you quickly and in big numbers.
Starcraft Zerg Strategy – Beating Marines
They are the swarm of the Terran forces and one-third of one of the deadly “MMM ball”.  These are the marines, and boy are they nasty.  They hit everything no matter if its in the air, on the land, or even below the surface (assuming they had some sort of detector nearby).  They good at everything and the top players know it.  So, how do you take them out when you’re rolling out with the Zerg horde?  Well, there are a few options that we’re going to take a look at. First, the roaches.  These are your version of their Marauder.  They’re simple, easy to build, armored, and ranged.  If you want to put a few extra resourced into the research they’ll even burrow for you.  However, their greatest advantage over the marine is their armor.  The carapace on a roach is thick enough to take quite a bit of punishment from the bullet storm coming their way.  They may not be invincible, but head-to-head, the roach will be able to take much more of a punishment.  Just remember that they do have a shorter range than the marine, so you may have to work a bit hard at microing.
