Considering the situation you were in, you played quite well. Still, your mistake was not forcing the scouting. When you had 6-8 lings, you should have tried to force your way up his ramp...then you wouldn't have been so surprised.

As for the lurker/scourge thing...yah, it's a b*tch, but if you go lings/hydras and research OL speed, its not a problem. Actually, now that I think about it, a fast expand into pure hydras would pretty much shut him down. Then you could start a Spire of your own, be up on minerals/gas, and use a hydra/muta push: mutas+ol's beat down Lurkers, then, when the scourges show up, just retreat to a nearby group of hydras.

No real tips exept expand early and expand like a whore..
Other than that this had to be the best text-based actual BR i've read in a LOOOOONNNNNG damn time.

You're right, he had you contained, he should have thrown up about 4 expansions and then just started throwing troops at you until you said uncle... Oh well, good job reporting a good game.

From what it sounds like, you played a good game....congrats on the vic....zerg vs zerg is easy if you go hydras early and often.

Scourge raids on OL's can actually rock even without the Lurker angle... taking down themn farms and halting production can be quite devastating sometimes. Just thought I'd mention it :) (also, it is irritating as HELL for the opponent, more or less qualifying it as psychological warfare, LOL)
