Starcraft 2 Thoughts: ZvP, Fast Ling Drops vs FFE

I have told Zerg for some time now that ling drops are very strong, and work with all kinds of other choices.

I recently found this great thread by TangSC, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=294983, about Fast Ling Drops vs Protoss doing FFE or Nexus first.

This guide is very well thought out, he also provides a 75 minute stream that covers this Build in great detail http://www.twitch.tv/tangsc/b/302592802, there are a couple of minutes when he shows the first game where his video card is straining/blinking until he changes settings, you can just skip ahead to 7:35 on the Twitch timer or 5:25 on the SC2 game Clock, rest of stream is fine.

TangSC also provides a replay, note he covers a lot of games in the 75 minute stream linked above, replay at http://drop.sc/75173.

He also provides detailed written notes in the stream, all in all this is an excellent guide!

I am adding this to the standard material that I provide to Zerg I coach.

You should follow TangSC, I am after seeing this guide!

You can find full contact information & Coaching rates from TangSC on his TwitchTV channel http://www.twitch.tv/tangsc

Edited to add further thoughts:  I really like how this build seems safe vs most things in the early game, and cause your dropping early you don't really have to worry about over producing lings.

You also get really complete scouting information!
