Zerg Vs Terran - Infestor Domination Strategy
The Zerg investor is an incredibly powerful unit to use when playing a Zerg vs Terran game. The reason for this is simple, the infestor is great against groups of bio units such as marines and marauders and the infestor is unstoppable against large ground units such as the mighty thor and tank.

Why You Should Rush As Zerg
Rushing is a great tactic if used right but it can also be a really bad decision if you do it wrong. If you do an effective rush it will cripple your opponent's economy or maybe even win the game if you are lucky. In the meantime the Zerg player has crippled himself by making the spawning pool so early and not building up his drones.
I do recommend doing a late rush with Zerg though as it can be very effective. Start off by building up your drones and make one extractor. When the speed upgrade finishes you should have 20 or so zerglings. Take the zerglings and run into your opponents base straight to the workers, ignore the army and take out as many workers as you can. This will halt the production of your opponent and at the same time he is focusing on building back up his workers you can build up your roach/hydra army and finish him off.
Zerg Build Orders
A good Zerg player can do a very effective late rush but I would recommend staying away from the very early rushes that we are seeing all over battlenet right now. A diamond level player will not fall to an early rush and in fact, in most cases it will leave you in a worse position after the failed rush then your opponent.
When you hit 10 drones build an overlord and then pump out 3 more drones when the overlord finishes. Build a spawning pool after the 3 drones and then make 1 extractor and throw 3 drones on it. Continue to build drones until the pool finishes then make a queen. When the speed upgrade finishes take all your zerglings and head for your opponent's expansion, take out the workers and then head straight into his main base and also take out as many workers as you can. You may not be a huge fan of rushing like that, in which case you would build a mixture or drones and zerglings/roaches until you hit 30 drones instead of only building zerglings after the first 18 or so drones.
Terran Counter Unit Strategy
So you want to learn the correct Terran counter units? In this guide I will show you the basics of countering as a Terran player when playing against Zerg and Protoss. This a general guide and is meant as an overview of the Terran counter units.
First we will talk about playing against a Zerg player. The correct Terran counter unit for this attack is the hellion as it will do very good damage to groups of ground units like the zergling. Another attack the Zerg likes to use is the roach and hydro combo. The best Terran counter unit for this is the tank and thor combo as they will simply destroy the Zerg attack. A good Terran unit counter for this is again the tank and thor combo, just make sure you have a few marines in front to protect the tanks. The Protoss player may try using colossus or immortals. If you learn these Terran counter units you should have no trouble beating even a diamond ladder Protoss or Zerg player!
Protoss Vs Terran Basic Strategy
Playing as Protoss against Terran can be a very difficult game as Terran is so unpredictable and hard to scout. Protoss must know what the enemy is doing so they can build the correct counter units but this is a challenge against good Terran players. This guide will show you how to beat a Terran player 1v1.
If the Terran playing is using thors or tanks then build some immortals as they will dominate the thors and tanks without even taking that much damage. The Terran player might make an air attack with vikings and banshees. I wouldn't recommend building air units when playing against Terran because marines do decent damage to air units and that alone will be enough to defend against your void ray attack or even a few carriers.
If you follow this guide and learn the strengths and weaknesses of your units then you should have not trouble beating a good Terran player.
