Build order for old patch (June 9) - Works as a guideline for current builds:
This is a greedy tech build. As with all greedy expand or tech builds, make sure your opponent cannot kill you and your teammate. Use proper scouting tools to ensure safety.

Opener (Hatch first, Overlord first, etc.)
@100 minerals - Extractor (x3)
@50 minerals - Spawning Pool
Begin transferring workers
@125 minerals - Evo Chamber (Timing is slightly earlier and more specific than I imply in the video).
@100 gas - Lair
1 overlord (mineral count not specific)
@Lair - Metabolic Boost (Ling speed)
1 overlord, save gas for hive.
@150 gas - Hive
@50 gas - Bane nest (optional, used for defense)
1 overlord, 2nd evo chamber OR Zergling OR 3rd base (preference in that order).
@Hive and Metabolic - Adrenal Glands
@225 Gas - +2 attack, +1 armor
Extra overlords with extra minerals (should get 4-5 total).
Flood Zergling, prepare transition.
Transition: @150 gas - Infestation pit for Defilers.
Recommended to go to ultras after.

Why are you uploading this? I want achievements! I'll be going back and making WoL and HotS guides soon™. For now, I'm enjoying Vanguard, and I figure I'll upload what I enjoy and see if others like it too.
