In the GSL code S ro16 group b matches today Symbol dealt with this attack by using overlord ventral sacs to negate the force fields. As I am not a zerg I don't know how viable this is normaly but i thought this was an elegant solution.

It seemed that the push came later than usual which gave him time to get the upgrades, but having said that, maybe zergs can figure ways to get the upgrade in time for earlier attacks... maybe not.

Only problem is that ovie drop is actually very expensive. If we want ovie drop done by the time a 9:00 push moves out, we need to start research at 7:00, or start lair at ~5:30, which is before stephano even starts his 2 gases.

To scout it, usually I start a 6:30 warren when I see no gas, 6:45 warren+7:00 evo when I see one gas, 7:00 warren+evo when I see 2 gas. Fits pretty well for me.
