Video: Benji’s guide on “How to Engage a Terran Army as Zerg” – Highly Recommended for Zerg
Benji from the SEA server shows how to use Zerg’s units correctly against those of Terran. For many new players Zerg just feels really weak against Terran, this video shows just how strong Zerg units can be against Terran when they are controlled correctly. All new Zerg players (and perhaps even Terran players) should watch this video.

Platinum Protoss player GiygaS posted this video of a coaching session he had with iNcontrol on Team Liquid. It is focused on the PvT matchup but he also talks a lot about the Protoss mindset, expansion timing and when to attack. If you’re having trouble with this matchup I highly recommend you check it out.
Article and Video: PvZ iNcontrol Style – Highly Recommended for Protoss
This article and the accompanying videos have really helped me when it comes PvZ. It is essientially a descritption and explanation of the style that iNcontrol uses to dominate Zerg opponents. It is a very flexible, safe and macro-oriented style.

In this video Artosis shows a build designed by IMYongHwa that is designed to very effectively defend against four Warpgate strategies. Not exactly beginner-level, but if you’re having trouble with PvP four-gates then you should definitely check it out.
