Shokz Starcraft 2 Guide Review | Shokz Starcraft 2 Strategy Guide

With their obsession in producing genetically perfect species, the Zerg is again back to hunt down the weak and to assimilate with potentially powerful beings in the Starcraft galaxy. In the second installment of the game, the Zerg will once again try to conquer Terran and Protoss with their ruthless and cunning abilities to exterminate species that could corrupt the otherwise near-perfect Zerg genome.

The Terrans, compared to Protoss, quite possibly fair better in standing against the Zerg. Zerg fans, however, don’t have to fret just as yet as there are plenty of very effective strategies that can help your chosen Zerg race defeat the well-defended Terran juggernauts. In this guide, you will find some of the best Zerg versus Terran strategies.

Use the swarm.

Zerg strategies for defeating both the Terrans and the Protoss, but more especially the Terrans, are centralized on making full use of the strength of the swarm and massive amounts of units that move in on their enemies in a rush. This is the central theme of all Zerg battle strategies and this is what they are best at. Against Terran, flooding enemy troops is the main strategy you should employ.

Close in on enemy with special Zerg units.

By design, Terrans are ranged attackers. They can exonerate their enemies within their range, but they are often proved defenseless when attacked from within a close range. Taking this to mind, use special Zerg units that can deal with their enemies from within melee range.

Although rarely seen in battles, the Infestors are a special Zerg unit that is venerable for its burrowing abilities and superb enemy harassment capabilities. A number of Zerg units may burrow for protection or ease of movement, but nothing can compare to the Infestors which could remain undetected even when there are detectors nearby. What’s even better is that Infestors can easily take down enemy units even when they’re a few feet underground.

Terran units are especially vulnerable against Infestors since these can spawn infested Terran units in their burrowed state. The Infestors also have the ability to take over control of an entire Terran unit with its special Neural Parasite ability. This ability allows full control of both ground and air units, enabling the Infestors to use the special abilities and upgrades of the infested units against their own camp.

Scout your terrain and your enemy’s camp.

It’s an SOP that most Zerg players often overlook to the detriment of their forces. Before sending out your first offensive attackers, survey your terrain first and scout your enemy’s territories to check on what your opponent can dish out against you. The information you will gather will help a great deal in creating the best strategies you could use to defeat your enemies.

The most common, and quite possibly the most effective, Terran vs. Zerg attack is the Marauder and Marine combination with accompanying Tanks and Dropships. If your Terran enemy is using this strategy, you will be able to prepare your counter with units of Zerglings and Infestors. You’d also be able to avoid a deadly counterattack that uses Roaches. Marauders are excellent damage dealers against Roaches. It’s suicide to use this as part of your offensive force.

If your rival is building Siege Tanks and Thors, you can prepare plenty of Zerglings to keep them busy. Most winning Zerglings strategies may be built on taking over enemy camp with the least possible downtime, but having a well-planned strategy based on info gathered via scouting could never be underestimated.

Expand your colonies…but not too quickly

In the rush of the game, most Zerg players try to expand as quickly as their resources allow. Unless you’re well grounded defense-wise, this is a big no-no. And against Terran forces, this proves to be a fatal mistake. You should only expand when you already have ample resources and sufficient defense. Until you can confidently handle massive attacks coming from your enemy, production of offensive units should not take the bulk of your resources.

In the end, nothing beats a Zerg versus Terran strategy that is built on the synergy of speed, planning, and a massive force of defense and offense units that enemy troops will find hard to stand against.  The most important thing to keep in mind is to harass your enemy with a constant wave of Speed Zerglings and prevent him from fortifying his camp.
