Block the ramp with 2 queens. If no 2 queens. Split your drones and suicide 1 drone to 2 banelings. 1-2 lings to 1 baneling. Pray that he aclicks his banelings.

Blocking the ramp with 2 queens would be fine, but that map was Taldarim and the ramp needs 3 - 4 queens to fully block. It's a good idea but it's so map specific, and I'm looking for a consistent way to counter this aggression.

He did not a-click his banelings, which means you have to manually hit them and kill them to make them explode. I didn't have enough time to explode all his banelings, and he ended up just marching in. Also, praying that your opponent makes a mistake... doesn't seem right when looking for a counter.
