Starcraft 2 - Insane Blitz Achievement Guide

[andreaparenti006]

Here when i attack with my little zergs ALL OF THE ENEMY GROUP starts attacking my zergs. Here in the video you are just being "untouched".

[joeyD0306]

this strategy doesn't work for me. in your vid, the drones do not come off minerals to attack. when i do it, all the drones come off mineral line to attack

[Daviddastous]

I just gged it ...at 5:03 -.-

[monkeyseemonkeyfart]

this doesn't work no more i dont think

[Galactis87]

The AI won't surrender every time but worked after 5 tries. Just keep trying, it'll surrender one game depending on which AI was activated and what you kill. Just try to keep your lings alive the longer and keep the drones busy while your crawlers keeps building.

[Flaeor]

Confirmed. This just worked like a charm. Gotta make sure you aggro all their drones and queen on your Zerglings to let the Spines finish. Once they finish, tell all your units to kill their Queen. Insane comp IMMEDIATELY gg'd upon their Queen dying.

[lowen903]

what map are u doing this on

[greatman3388]

@lowen903 Steppes of War

[ColdCypher]

This doesnt work anymore. The zerg build a 2nd hatchery in their base. They dont surrender until its too late.

[greatman3388]

@ColdCypher I just tried this yesterday. It still does work, and actually I got an even faster time than before. You don't need to kill both Hatcheries; only kill their Queen and any workers around your spines. They SHOULD surrender by then.

[ColdCypher]

@greatman3388 Tried it again and it doesnt work. They dont surrender. Not for me anyways. The protoss cannon rush worked for me though on insane.

[hetibby]

so annoying...i keep doing this and the computer just takes forever to gg

[voterx]

Works - Steps of War 19/09/2011

version 1.3.6.19269

Note: Must kite with left over zerglings, Place Spine after zergling agro, place spine only at the edge of the creep, use drones to attack enemy drones.

[kraniumkrash]

Still works - done on September 2nd 2011

Just follow what he said.

[Only1BandIsTheBand]

works like a charm, first try. thanks bro.

[zackunderscorefalcon]

Just curious, what was the version of SC2 you were running when you made this?

[LeroyJenkins1988]

targets my spine crawlers right away, and sometimes they have a roach or two on the way with a second queen. I've tried this 10+ times now =/

[poopfartpenis]

it still works guys, you're just doing it wrong

[Violexant]

Worked for me! Thanks.

[Nikfurion]

Hahaha worked at the first try, steppes of war, THANKS MAN XD

[keitsee]

hmm. I have tried about 20+ times and could not get them to chase the lings. When I get there all the drones stop chasing the lings and go for the spines. No matter what I do. He even had a roach before I had the crawlers up.

[0burntrice0]

yeah man, i dont know what im doing wrong or anything... but they suspended at 4:22. and i did exactly what you said. when i press yes to the surrender and go to score screen i dont get the insane blitz achievement. same map, soo umm help? :) thanks.

[Eddenftw]

Doesn't work, the drones are targeting the spinecrawlers.

[Eddenftw]

Doesn't work. The drones are targetting the spinecrawlers.

[greatman3388]

@Eddenftw If you look at the other comments, it still works even on the current patch. Try to delay the workers from attacking the Spines by using your lings. The workers should then target your lings; then just runs them in circles as your Spines finish.

[Gazer75]

@Eddenftw yep...seems they changed the AI so this is not working anymore

[RattsTyerell32]

it works

[BrigadierSolo]

this definitely still works. Just watched the video, did what he said

bam, instant achievement

[Dutchmv]

My spines finish off his base, but the computer only surrenders after 6 min or so. I think its vital for this stratt to work, that the enemy drones can't mine. Not even to the second hatchery.

[memberHD]

why not just say 6 pool...video over

[tsuyokai]

This method still works, just requires some microing with the zerglings.

Since all the workers rush to the Spine crawlers as soon as they start coming up, I ran into the mass of drones and let the zerglings drop a couple hits into them

This being said, all the drones start chasing the zerglings. Run Circles, and instant win.

[KOedmyself]

never worked for me and all the lings die first

as u said

[IlRincreTeam]

@Overkillius create a map more little with the editor,then it will work u.u

[mns983]

Thanks for this! I've been trying to get this achievement against Terran using 6 pool but the best time ive ever had is 6 minutes. I actually was able to get this achievement using this strat in 4 minutes and 19 seconds.

[thatsnotmath]

Just beat the computer in 4minutes and 25 seconds on patch 1.2 and got the achievement

[alex970001]

i did it in 4 mins and 56 seconds and i dint get it

[gobbenatoren]

It still works, just did it now. I got the computer to follow my lings with his queen and worker while till my spine crawlers finished.

[Seanybravo16]

I have a problem, the comp wont GG; I killed everything with the spine crawlers to a point where it said blah blah has no rebuilt and is being revealed...

[Videoproductz]

possible but requires alot more micro now

[UDIEIKILLU]

AHHHHHH i finished it in 5 minutes and 5 seconds and i didnt get it :(

[grotop]

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!! :D

[Haaystack]

It's like the computer learns. First time it worked for me, when I tried it again I failed.

Protip: Play on medium SPEED or just fast. Helps you with your micro. With your zerglings, hade two attack the hatchery and four on the spawning pool. Then put the crawlers at a little bit of range.

have the lings running around when they start dieing

[robeywan]

thanks guy :) just pulled it off, worked 1st time. ive tried it twice more since, trying to milk the X10 achievement but the AI has already popped roaches = game over. ha. cheers dude!

[nickysix23]

doesn't work - tired it about 10 times

[skrapmaja]

Dont work anymore

[greatman3388]

@skrapmaja Try it a couple times. It still works. Sometimes the AI attacks your Spine Crawlers first. The key is for them to target your lings. If the Spine Crawlers go up, you win.

[ATDOINFERNO]

@skrapmaja FYI: this works even after patch 1.1.3; "the key is for them to target your lings". To do so, if the enemy targets your SC, do a single attack to the enemy Hatchery nearest to them (usually the starting one; other buildings may work as well, but not all), and run away with your lings. Keep luring the enemy by doing this, and, ocasionally, you'll still have some lings after your SC pop up. Be ready to accept the AI's gg...

[teylix]

nice. this video was the only one that worked for me.

thumbs up!

[kruls]

It is important to send your overlord to the computers base to scare its overseer back or it may see your units coming and be prepared to counter

[Sorgutentarer]

It's really easy with the zealot 2 gate rush inside his base. I didnt even know about this achievement as I was trying to make the rush work vs medium hard very hard and insane AI. Late game, they just make better and larger army than you have.

[SoleTool]

cool gonna try that

[MEOInc]

Awesome guide I finally got that achievement great work! Keep making more achievement videos please :D

[unohok]

Youare the man :)

[InfestedSpartan]

Just an FYI for anyone who wants to get any of the AI achvs You need to create the game through the Multiplayer tab.

[Overkillius]

For those losers (like me) out there that couldn't tell (at first) this map is Steppes of War. This is important because some 1v1 maps are larger and take longer to cross giving the computer time to possibly get enough forces to thwart you.

[greatman3388]

@Overkillius This man is correct. My apologies. I should have mentioned the name of the map. Additionally (in case you happen to be brain dead) you must play against Zerg.

[greatman3388]

Well, it isn't in a box anymore. Now its squished. Maybe I should change my resolution when I play...

I'm getting there, guys!
