So...I'm a Starcraft player who usually gets my butt kicked unless I'm playing a custom game (Or I'm playing on a team). What are the best strategies to use when playing with Zerg?

Macro, Macro, Macro. Basically keep all your focus on lava production and queen abilities, while occasionally harassing the enemy player. Zerg are the hardest race to master so don't feel bad if you can't get the hang of it.

Basically what Zedd said, they are a macro oriented race. Generally you'll want to make as many drones as possible, which involves expanding early and making as few combat units as possible. Of course to avoid being crushed by any early all-ins you need to scout a lot - poke into their base with a couple of zerglings every once in a while, keep units at watchtowers, spread creep well. Often you'll want to sacrifice an overlord into their base after several minutes to try to determine their build. As soon as you see them start to push out with their army, start spamming as many combat units as possible - just enough to hold off the attack. Later on, your economic advantage will allow you to just out-produce them. What league are you anyway? Idk, you could be diamond league and all of what I just said would be incredibly basic... If you have more specific build order questions and stuff, I play protoss so I'm not quite as knowledgeable on those, but I'll do my best (or refer you to better sources).
