Whenever we start a game against a Zerg player, the first thing we need to be prepared for is the nasty buffed zergling rush. A good zerg player can win the game simply by using zerglings and banelings. This guide will show you how to be prepared and defeat this type of attack.

The good zerg players on bnet by now have learned how to use zerglings effectively to harass us and run through our army to take out our jeeps. This can be a devastating blow to our economy which, in turn, will cause us to fall behind in mineral gathering and cost us the game. The first thing we can do, of course, is use supply depots to block the entrance to our base, but this won’t stop a good Zerg player, as they can use Banelings to get through the supply depots very quickly and run with the speedlings. .

The answer is to use demons. Demons are great at picking off groups of zerglings and they move just as fast as zerglings so you can keep up with them. Of course, to get demons this early in the game, you’ll need to build a factory pretty quickly and start pumping them out as soon as you know the zerg player is using a lot of zerglings and banelings. If you use this method against a zerg attack, you will have no problem taking out even a really good zerg player.
