ZvZ Spine Crawler Rush

Post by Aaryn_GenD »

did this old strategy for fun today and i had fun :P
there are several ways of doing this, i bet some are nonsense, however i'll list them all:
6 pool
9 pool, drone till 10, then OL
10 pool
or overpool (10 overlord, 10 pool, 9 drone)

with all of them you send a drone with you and plant a spine crawler into your opponents base, your lings will defend it till it is built up
the great thing is when they panic and do a wrong move you can punish them right away^^

OMG i lost to this tactic a couple of days ago. I panicked cause it was the first time i came across it so i laid down a second GW but was too late in the end.
