Zerg vs Zerg is so annoying, it's always the same. After about 20 games vs zerg each with varying outcomes the end result is the same, the other player always (always!) goes for mutalisks. They go zergling/baneling then transition into muts. Making those assumptions never fails me, the only problem is that I can't deal with banelings. At all. So i've taken to going 7 pool and worker rushing as soon as the lings begin to morph.

My Zerg vs Terran is pretty good, except here in the lower leagues, it seems that Terran players can be assumed to be doing 1 or 3 things: MMM, Banshee, or if given enough time, Battlecruiser. Making those assumption has only failed me once or twice- vs gold league players.

Now, in my matchup vs protoss things get a bit different depending on the player I am fighting against. Most of the time it's 1) Zealot rush 2) Zlot rush + stalkers 3) Proxy rush, which is bull crap op vs zerg. 4) Stalker Colossi combo, or 5) Void Rays.

Edit: What are your experiences like, in any league on any matchup (can be 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, etc etc)

Learn to micro with your lings (picking off a baneling with a single ling is always great value). Also don't ever assume when you can scout and know.

ps. proxy zealots aren't hard to deal with if you learn to scout. Unless you're high diamond, you have no reason to call anything OP.

qft.

Also the other day i went Muta ling and got owned by a zerg player that went corrupter/ling and forced me to starve for resources while he expanded.

also corrupter/ ling is very good for Toss matchups if you transition into brood lords roaches and hydras after you pwn his army.
