tired of losing because your allies suck?
...are you that ally?
fear not, you can carry your teammates with superior ease with this amazingly fast speedling build!
build order - drone til 10 - wait til 125 minerals - build an extractor, put 2 drones on it until 100gas - 9 pool - drone back to 10 - overlord - 10 queen - 12 drone (aka drone after queen) or metabolic boost, whichever you can afford first * don't forget to pull drones off gas at 100 - 13 ling - 14 ling - 15 overlord - lings+ovies from here on out, don't get supply blocked, don't forget injects, because you can afford mass lings.
playing this build gonna keep it brief but basically if you're in the lower leagues you can just rush anyone who doesn't have a wall off completed and really do some srs damage. it makes you yourself cheese proof and lets you help your allies greatly if they are rushed. gives a lot of scouting and map control depending on your APM.

looks like that 26 Speedling build or whatever. i would imagine it would work in team games but I've heard this is more of a ZvZ strat.
in any case, this is rather micro-reliant. only having 11 Drones mining means you need to do damage.

it's currently a subject of debate. while it's not as economic as the standard 14 Ext 14 Pool build, Metabolic Boost will always finish faster due to 10 Ext, and you will always have more Zerglings due to earlier Pool --> earlier Queen --> earlier Larva.
and although Speed is only researched maybe ~20 seconds before that of the standard build, that'll be your timing window. it has the characteristics of an All-In but can seamlessly transition into Expand/Baneling, assuming you did enough damage.
