Keep dropping. Stephano may be able to shut down your drops with ling patrols and well placed infestors, but I promise you the average ladder master wont. If you dont succeed straight away just keep dropping, you will eventually hit the jackpot and kill like 20 drones.

Also be really careful taking a third, as some variations of this style involves cutting some drones and getting like 70 upgraded ling on the field to completely annihilate terran when he moves out to push/take third, keep a close eye on that ling/drone count

I have been struggling against what looks a little like this type of play lately. While i am not anywhere near the top of sc2 competition, i seem to be playing many games where i go reactor hellion, dont suicide them but see a HEAP (50+ at least) of lings eventually come to get the few hellions that are there for map control. it is at that time i know this will be nasty.

NOrmally, it is this exact time i get punished - when taking a third. i will move half my tanks and a good chunk of marines to the expo - then a stream of lings come and i just lose the army, and really never catch up.

can any terrans give me a hand with the way to take your third against this type of play?

So true, more and more do i get rolled over by tons of lings when I try and move out.
