A Few Zerg Tips

• Over the course of the Zerg campaign Hydralisks are the most useful combat unit due to their ability to target both air and ground units. Hydralisks can also wipe out structures quickly.
• The Defiler's Dark Swarm ability makes Hyralisks untargetable by missile attacks.
• Guardians are an extremely strong air-to-ground unit. However, they often require Hydralisk support.
• Overlords are mandatory versus cloaking units.
• The Queen's Broodling ability should be employed against Terran Siege Tanks and Goliaths.
• The Queen's Ensnare and Parasite abilities should be employed against Terran Wraiths.
• The Queen's Infest Command Center ability should be employed against Terran Command Centers.
• If you have enough Vespene resources, build two Evolution Chambers and two Spires to increase Research rate.
• Spore and Sunken Colonies have their uses (deterrence), but a mob of Hydralisks generally performs better (but Hydralisks require more micro-management).
