StarCraft 2 - [Z] Infestor Ultralisk Late Game Zerg Play PART 2 - Strategy

[OMGitsOhhEmmGee]

CATZ ! :D

[YetiMaken]

i love the viedo opened my eyes to diff tactics for the zerg

[superpantman]

@YetiMaken

Same, i always play zerg but i always engage protoss and terran straight on and lose, even if i'm sure i've got enough army to win. I think zerg need more battle management and tactics rather than just highlighting all offensive units and just sending them out. This clip shows why

[GuitarRookie001]

how did he drop multi infested terrans ? it takes ages to click on them and drop them in ?

[Constitutionen]

@GuitarRookie001

just keep the t button down and it launces multiple pods

[DayBreakOfficial]

@GuitarRookie001 or hold shift and click click click.

[Jice1123]

This made me shed a tear. Zerg forever!

[saadzaman126]

that infested terran into the mineral line was sooo sick, same with the fungal growth to the scvs

[SpazzyMcGee1337]

I've never seen an infester drop before.

[NickBigsmoke]

if terran was smart he would have got banshee

[doompassword]

@NickBigsmoke he had :) look at endgame battle ;P

[BojaDrawing]

@NickBigsmoke in late game against a infestor muta ultra zerg? I dont think so

[imilkdude]

terran didnt have much for an army

[verifor]

man. the only thing that was missing to be overpowered 9000 was a nydus worm.

[bvue1999]

where was the infestor??

[vinrave]

Dude you're awesome!

[rockwill12]

Lol, this wouldent work on a good terran. no counter from terran, and not that many units only a shit load of money - no defense lines to.

this is one of you worse strartegy guys. but keep em' coming.

horns up.

[iTzMattz]

great zerg play...

[bood3e]

@iTzMattz or bad terran play

[jarky418]

@bood3e no way. the terran was like a regular terran but5 the zerg new exactly what he was doing and just raped the whole SCV count.

[brockyhocky]

no one uses infestors... they can spawn 8 marines for no resource cost and fungal growth can be a life saver

[muchumeschugge]

nice one, zerg player pwnd the hell outta the terran

[mofogie]

what if there were planetary fortresses instead? that would make speedling harass alot more difficult and lot less profitable.

[thegreatyuri]

@mofogie

yea good question... funga;l growth would still work ok though... I guss ?

[Triumphit1]

@mofogie a planetary fortress in the main Terran Command Center in the beginning of the game is a mistake, u want the mules asap

[unholyfarter]

wow zerg player was pro. just completely in control the whole time

[sushlet]

I'm trying to get more proficient with Zerg, as it is my worst race. It changed the most after SC1, the other races I can play SC1 style but Zerg play style seems to have changed the most. And very nice use of infestors, I've never seen them used so effectively.

[AcidBugler]

i bet he crapped his pants when them lings and ultras ran around the pillar lol

[BZhubb808]

how does he deposit all fungal growth? idk how i use it one at a time:( i mean spawing infested terran or whatever

[bygone44]

@BZhubb808 after you hit the hotkey (f?) before you click to use it hold down shift, and it will let you do it multiple times

[BZhubb808]

@bygone44 wait im slow say that again

[bygone44]

@BZhubb808 after you click the spell.. either Fungal Growth of Infested Terran, Hold down the shift key, and every time you click it will use it again as long as you have the energy

[BZhubb808]

how does he deposit all fungal growth? idk how i use it one at a time:(

[Cexee1]

Aye! Well played by the zerg :>

Really cheeky way to use infestors :>

[Taurenspoon]

wow catz ruined silver's whole day

[pure2142]

the terran robot lady gives me the creeps

[Todaipower]

well play by the zerg

[AdvancedYouser]

nice link to 2 part :)

[xiAresx]

wow silver really sucked it up this game

[markness071]

why did silver play so bad this game? He didn't even move out of base until Catz had ultras.

[GoobLaLa]

LoL I Love how idra raged about terran imba when he lost to silver but catz just steamrolled him

[ShinobiXRevived]

Lol @ ff

[juvygenius]

Put simply with this build, it is all about abusing the terrans immobility and abusing infestor abilities. This combined with quick expanding will allow for a hefty army to be created. The terran however could have done more abusing as he seemed too direct depending on power.

[aclock2]

@juvygenius If Zerg player go for Zerling- Muta build, it's very risky for Terran to try abusing as it's almost guaranted that you will lose all your abusing unit with or without dealing enough damage to cover their cost.

[faux123]

Similar scenario happened to me. At the beginning I was under pressure from Baneling bust + speedlings, after I stopped the Banelings, he transitioned to Muta/Speedling combo, I responded with Marine/Thor/Vikings, he then countered with Banelings once again, took out my Marines, so I went Marauder/Viking/Thor (meanwhile I lost map control and he had expanded to 4 bases vs my 2), then in the end I was overwhelmed by Ultras. Mutas was the turning point. How should Terran respond to this strategy

[khraxcore]

@faux123 missile turrets :)

[faux123]

@khraxcore LOL @ Missile turrets... static defense = fail vs mobile mutas

[n4v32x]

@faux123 Not if they have good coverage. 3 Missile turrets shut down an immense ammount of mutalisk because they are so damn strong.

[aclock2]

@faux123 Being aggressive. Muta-Zergling are the fastest combo but also the softest, get some Hellion + 3-4 Thors will shut them down easily (if they harrassed your base, get some turret + put few Hellion to defend). And attack when you have 4 thors and bunch of upgraded Hellion. If you excute it properly, the Zerg may never have chance to get Ultra, You can also get some Marauder or Banshee to deal with Infestor, and make sure the Hellion won't get hit by Baneling.

[faux123]

@aclock2 Problem is mutas are so mobile, he had complete map control and expanded everywhere and he had me contained to just 2 bases just like this video. He never engaged me directly just like this video. It was hit and run rinse and repeat until he got ultras then it was just too much for me... As Force said, Terran mobility was exploited by the Zerg player and I was wondering what is the solution to this mobility / containment issue for TvZ....

[aclock2]

@faux123 As I stated before, if your base are well defended with 3-4 Turrets, the Muta can't do anything unless they have huge number, in that case, place 1 Thor at base and build more Turret, or you can get marine-bunker, they are good against both Muta and Zergling. After setting up a good base defense, move out with Thors (the more, the better) and some Hellion at the back to deal with Zergling. If he tried Zergling run by, put a few Hellion to defend your base, with SCV support.

[darkfang5820]

first

[SpankyDmonkey2]

@darkfang5820 fail... just fail :). Awesome match btw.
