Starcraft II - ZVP Basic Cheesy Proxy Hatchery

So I've been using proxies as Zerg against Terran and Protoss a little, and if they don't produce enough units fast enough it's always gg. It works quite well in the lower leagues.

Also I know Zerg don't have great proxy strategies but this one is a lot quicker than you'd think (even though you need Spawning pool, another Hatch AND a Queen all in succession). If timed right you can get them out in minimum time.

Build order:
6: Send out single drone for proxy Hatch

6: Drones till 10. If you do them exactly as you get 50 minerals, it will be the fastest for your economy.

10: Proxy Hatch with the drone you sent out. Depending on map, you can do it as soon as you get there or a few seconds afterward.

9: Drone

10: Spawning Pool (will sync nearly exactly with Proxy Hatch)

9: Drone

10: Overlord

10: Queen as soon as Hatchery/Spawning pool are finished

12: 1x Zergling

13: 2x Drones

13: Overlord

15: 2x Zerglings

17: Overlord

17: Inject Queen's Larvae asap

17: 2x Zerglings

19: 1x Drone

20: You can either strike their workers now or make a few more lings first, but either way keep injecting larvae, keep producing lings. You should have a high enough supply without having to make any more Overlords, enough that you should be able to at least cripple their economy if not win.

If they find your Proxy start on gas straight away and make a Roach Warren IMO.

NOTE: Always remember to micro manage. You can take out many more forces, even if you're outnumbered, this way.

@Pikey1969

Haha thanks bro, it's pretty easy to counter though if it's found early so it's not a bonafide good build, but it's fun to mess around with.

You could use spine crawlers instead, and send a couple zergs to harass the entrance

[opertwan1]

this is bronze league for sure. no player would not notice that creep once it was in the vision.

Do this or send an scv in the beggining of a game to make a barracks then a bunker.

i personally did this a couple a times.. with succes.. and the way i did it was by distracting the player with a drone in his base and as soon as the proxy hatch.. came up i made a spine crawler... build up some drones and get more spine crawlers.. i didn't get a queen at all.. i rather went and expanded at my main and just got some zerglings at the proxy (in case it failed) but once the crawlers are out it's pretty much gg..
