After the Lair, there are three more options: create a Spire, evolve Lurker Aspect, or create a Queens Nest. The Spire is used for the production of Mutalisks, which are used to counter Zealots, Dragoons, Firebats, and Reavers. Lurkers are used to counter armies of M&Ms or zerglings, or massed low-hp units in general. The Queens Nest enables the production of Queens, used with Spawn Broodling to counter Tanks, and also to tech to Hive.

After the Hive Tech, three more possibilities present themselves: Greater Spire, Ultralisk Cavern, and Defiler Mound. Greater Spire allows for production of Guardians, for mounting a final attack incolving a steady crawl with Hydralisk or Mutalisk support, and the Devourer, used to counter flagships. The Ultralisk is used to mount a final attack a different way, by taking the hits of the enemy while zerglings and hydralisks in tow cause huge damage. The Defiler Mound allows for the research of Plague and Dark Swarm. Plague is used to counter flagships and to weaken enemy defenses, while Dark Swarm is used to cover Hydralisks defending from flagships and to cover Zerglings as they attack the enemy base.

The Defiler Mound allows for the research of Plague, Consume, and a +50 Defiler Energy Buff. Plague is used to counter flagships and to weaken enemy defenses, while Dark Swarm (learned by default) is used to cover Hydralisks defending from flagships and to cover Zerglings as they attack the enemy base.
