Zerg - Mutalisk Rush Build Order

This is the fastest possible way to make 7 Mutalisks. Very useful on Island maps.

- Send 4 Drones to mine minerals.
- Build drone 5.
- Send Overlord to scout.
- Build Drone 6 (send drone 5 to mine minerals).
- Build Drone 7 (send drone 6 to mine minerals when it gets done morphing).
- Send Done 7 to mine minerals.
- Build Overlord when you get 100 minerals.
- Build Drone 8.
- Build Drone 9.
- Send Drone 8 to build Extractor.
- Send Drone 9 to mine minerals.
At this point your unit counter should be at 8, because one of your drone morphed into an Extractor.
- Make another Drone, when it's done send it to build a Spawning Pool.
- When Extractor is done, send two drone from the mineral line to harvest gas.
- Make two more drones, send them to harvest gas.
You should now have 4 Drones on Gas.
- Make 4 more drones, send them to mine minerals when they morph.
- When Spawning Pool finishes (may occur before 11th or 12th Drone is made) upgrade your Hatchery to a Lair.
- When you get 300 minerals, build another Hatchery.
- When the Lair finishes Upgrading, build a Spire.
- Make 2 more Overlords.
- When your Spire Finishes, you should have about 700 minerals, 600 gas, build 6 Mutalisks from your Hatchery and Lair.
- When the Gas counter reaches 100 again, produce the 7th Mutalisk.
By this time, hopefully, if the enemy is Zerg of Protoss, your opponent shouldn't have very much air defence, and you should be able to crush them.
