Starting any game as Terran against a Zerg player one of the first things we think of the possibility of a Zerg rush. Good Zerg players can win games against Terran by just using Zerglings with Metabolic Boost and Banelings. In this strategy guide I will teach you how to be prepared for and defeat this type of early attack.Many Zerg players on Battlenet have mastered how to effectively use Zerglings to harass Terran players and run past our armies and attack our SCV line. These types of moves can be disaterous for our economy which can cause us to fall way behind economically and end up costing us the game. One of the first things we can do is use Supply Depots to block off the ramp entrance of our base. However, this will not be enough to stop a determined Zerg player who will use Banelings to break through the Depots and run in the base with Speedlings.The best counter to this is build Hellions. Hellions are one of the best units for taking out Zerglings because they move the same speed as Zerglings and have a ranged attack. In order to get Hellions early in a game you will have to build a Factory fairly quickly and start producing them as quickly as possible when...more

As a Zerg player playing against a Terran opponent one thing you must always be ready for is a potential Reaper Rush. Reaper rushing is a very popular strategy on Battlenet right now for a good reason, many players don't know how to defend against it. In this guide I will show you how you can easily stop Reaper rush when playing as Zerg.A lot of Zerg players think the best thing to do is place a bunch of Spine Crawlers around their base. While this can work, it can get very expensive and put you behind economically. If you are going to place Spine Crawlers, you should only place one directly in the middle of your Drones harvesting minerals. From this location no Reaper will be able to get in range to pick off your Drones.While Spine Crawlers can work, they really have no purpose past the Reaper rush. That's why I like to get Zerglings with Metabolic boost as fast as possible. Generally I like to have 100 gas right when my Spawning Pool finishes so I can immediately start researching Metabolic Boost. I also like to get my Queen as soon as possible because her ranged attack can ward off one or two Reapers. However a single queen will not be able to stop a large group of...more
