    Devastating an enemy base can be done by first sending in several waves of Zergling and Hydralisks. Their defense system will be distraught. Try to destroy lots of missile turrets and continue to send in reinforcements. Send in some Ultralisks to provide distraction.

EditTips

  • Defilers and Queens are not exactly useless. They are actually one of the best units in the game. Their spells are proven very worthy. With enough macro-management, you can destroy a group of 12 Carriers with only 12 Hydralisks and 1 or 2 Defilers. Just put a Dark Swarm over your hydralisks, select all your hydras, then individually right click on each carrier while holding down SHIFT.
  • Do not ALWAYS play FMP (Fastest Map Possible) as they involve nearly NO skill. Their bases are big, you have like unlimited resources, you don't need expansions, the middle bases have an unfair advantage, there is no high ground, and every single base is shaped like a perfect rectangle. And another thing is that your main hatchery/CC/Nexus is right next to the minerals, allowing you to even get 3 gateways at 10/17 supply. Normally, all you can get is 1 Gateway at 10/17 supply. It just doesn't involve skill.
  • To improve you HAVE to play on battle.net.
  • Know the map you're playing, know how many entrances their are to your base, where are the high grounds, and where your enemy can possibly be.
  • Instead of playing FMP, try to play Hunters, or Ladder maps.

EditWarnings

  • Always have a strategy that can change quickly. If you're doing mass Zerglings, and he just happens to go mass Firebats, get Hydras. Don't just keep running Zerglings to their death.
