dont get frustrated dude, just know what your opponent is doing, and react accordingly, ive learned this the hard way because i always used to go the same build every time, if blink stalkers come out, build a wall of roaches with hydras behind them, and wall up your base too, HDstarcraft has a good tutorial on how to do this, build like 3 or 4 spinecrawlers and put evo-chambers in front of them, the spine crawlers can reach past the evo-chambers, but the evo-chambers block the spine crawlers from getting hit, zerg is kinda macro intense, but worth it when you get the hang of it, you want corruptors against collosis for sure, so go for a lair as soon as you can, and try to sneek in behind them, as protoss will normally keep the collosi in the back, then roaches and hydras can take on the stalkers and what not on the front line, then once the collosi are out, mutate into broodlords, but make sure you keep some corrupters to attack any air units that might be out there, DONT GIVE UP MAN!!!!! zerg is awesome, i thought i would never learn them, my micro sucks, but my macro is so good, usually it doesnt matter, and dont go back to your base to spawn larva, i see alot of people doing this, you can do it right on the mini-map if your queens are hot-keyed, hope this helped, maybe we can play a few matches somtime and i can show you what i mean, not that im a great player or anything, but just looking to help out a fellow zerg :-)
i have found as a zerg player myself, if toss or terran is turteling up, i get my first expo as soon as i can, get all 4 gases going, then i tech up to corruptors and broodlords asap, i dont even build other units if there is no threat of an attack, they usually arent expecting broodlords on the first attack, and with the range of the broodlords being so fantastically awesome, only air units can threaten them, so i keep my corruptors nearby to clean any of them up, this build works for me almost every time when there is no threat of an attack
so i went on the SCII forums on battle.net, and i guess a ton of people are experiencing the same problem as me, not being awarded enough points for wins and losing all your points on 1 loss..so now i dont feel so bad...i guess this is only happening in bronze league
@auidiosnag yeah, i hear that, they must have some skitzo in a padded room doing algorhythms for them or something, guess i just have to win 10,000 in a row without losing 1 to get ahead
yeah i did my placement matches, but even if i lose to someone who is "better" than me i lose all my points, down to zero, no matter what, so basically i can never lose a match no matter how many points i have no matter how much better my opponent is, or im back to zero, its bullshit
ive been doing that, sometimes i even have 3 expansions before they even have their first up, and im producing corruptors and broodlords before they even try to attack me once, and i dominate with that, but like i said, 1 loss and all my points go bye bye, and im back to zero and back to rank 66 or 65, when i had a 6 or 7 win streak going on..very frustrating
well, i beat people that are "favored" over me, and sometimes get no points, and then beat people that im "favored" over get points, but lose to anyone favored or not, and lose all my points no matter what, so what do i have to do, never EVER lose a game to keep moving up lol, its redunkulous
