subject: Starcraft 2 Elite Guide - Zerg Infestor, Greatest thing since sliced bread [print this page] Of All the Zerg units the infestor is easily the most extremely effective unit to make use of every time trying to play a Zerg vs Terran match. The reason behind this really is very simple, the infestor is extremely good versus multiple types of bio units for example, marines and marauders.And also the infestor is unbeatable in opposition to large armored ground units for example the infamous thor and crucio siege tank. The following information will show you exactly how to make use of the infestor properly.
The important thing to winning Starcraft 2 is scouting which means you understand what the Terran player is about to do. You should utilize your overlords to fly across the Terran base and find out what he could be producing. I also typically send every single one of my overlords to the possible expansion points on the entire map and use the generate creep ability to keep eyes on the entire map all game. Their marines will in all probability kill your overlord however it is a suitable exchange for information.
When the Terran player is making marines and marauders with medivacs then you should definitly employ an infestor and zergling combo. Make use of the zerglings to hold their marines and marauders occupied while at the same time have your infestors use fungal growth on all of them. Fungal growth is going to do 36 damage in AoE (Area of Attack) fashion bringing a standard marine down to a whopping 4 health and affect his entire army plus the zerglings should never have that much difficulty taking care of whatevers left. If for some reason the Terran player opts to go along with thors or tanks then have your zerglings continue to keep all of them pre-occupied as you can get infestors to close range in order to make use of neural parasite. This provides you with complete power over his units for a while and following this its gg (good game). Simply make use of your zerglings to end any units they have remaining. That being said you will notice why infestors are by far the perfect unit for being successful and winning a Zerg vs Terran game.
