Yes yes, it is me once again with a few questions about ling/baneling counter.
Was talking to Dwain about it and his response was that the counter to ling/baneling is ling/baneling. However I have read in a few guides that roaches do well with baneling/ling rush. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/12_Hatch_Roach_%28vs._Zerg%29. 12 hatch roach build.
Thoughts? Input? Feedback?

I'm not sure about that roach build.... I mean it sounds OK at first, providing you get a few lings aswell. Like the lings will take care of his lings and your roaches will own the banelings + absorb the splash damage.
However, I think the reality of it will be (unless you have boxer micro) that your lings will still get raped by a few baneling explosions and his lings will dominate your roaches. Roaches suck against lings so bad, their rate of fire is just too slow imo. Admittedly, I play about one ZvZ a year, so I'm in no position to really speak that much on it. I do see the pros go baneling/ling vs baneling/ling a LOT though, and I think there's a good reason for it.

If you're interested, Day[9] did a daily on ZvZ zergling/baneling recently.
I don't play Zerg, so I'm afraid I can't help you myself.

Hah, I just watched this so I was about to recommend it :D It's definitely a good one for some ZvZ tips!Ratfink wrote:

Yes definitely I second that. It seems this thread has been answered with the post of that video. All my questions have been answered :).
