There are many different builds now adays. The ones I am going to list are normal builds, but very effective.
A great build is the Roach + Hydralisks build against Protoss with a mix of corrupters(against collosai). Hydralisks are very good against every single gateway army, and roaches will soak up damage and also do a reasonable amount of damage. If the enemy decides to you collosai, don't panic, just get some corrupters. If you can't make any corrupters, use your roaches to burrow under the collosai. You always want to get the hydralisk range upgrade to make them immensely powerful against air units and gateway units.
Another wonderful build is the "MutaLing" (Mutalisks + Zerglings). This is a great build because both units can move very quickly. Just make sure to get the zergling metabollic boost upgrade. This is a great build because zerglings can surround enemy forces and they are very inexpensive and fast to make. When you surround the enemy and attack with mutalisks, the enemy won't know which to attack first. The AOE unit with a lot of damage, or the speedlings that attack quickly. If you lose all your zerglings, just make more with all the larvae you have.
My last build would be the "spanishiwa" build. It is know to have great affect against all races. In order to do it, you make spine crawlers and queens at the start of the game for static defense. You get a quick expansion and get 4 gas at the same time. This will get you a lot of gas and you can get lair very early. The queens and spine crawlers will do a great job defending as long as you have about 4+ queens to heal themselves as well as the spine crawlers. This build is great to get a good economy.
StarCraft 2

Greatest clan players
There are many different great players in Starcraft 2. One of the most popular would be Team Liquid. Although they aren't the best Starcraft 2 players in the world, they are probably the most well known. Other teams like oGs, vile, ROOT(just ended), col, EG, and many great others have participated in competitions and won. ROOT has fuzed with col meaning they no longer are ROOT. A very popular Team Liquid player would be LiquidTLO. He is a fan favorite and known for doing builds that aren't normal at all. He was a random player for quite some time, but has officially switched to terran. Another liquid player is LiquidHuK. HuK is a protoss player and known for his great micro using all protoss units particularly the protoss colosai. There is also vileSpanishiwa, a zerg favorite. He is known for doing the "spanishiwa" build which is only making spine crawlers and a massive amount of queens to defend and no gas. He is not very good in ZvZ as he has said before in past videos. VilePsy is also a vile member and a commentator. He is popular for having great commentating skills as well as in-game skills. EG (Evil Geniuses) is one of the most popular clans also having EGIdrA. IdrA is by far one of the best StarCraft 2 zerg players ever, but he also has a bad side. He is known for having the "IdrA" rage. Finally, now heading toward Team oGs(Old Generations). They are one of the greatest Korean teams and a famous player is oGsMC. He is known for his powerful micro with protoss. He won 2 GSLs and also was a famous player in StarCraft: Broodwars.
Husky Biography
HuskyStarCraft is one of the most popular commentators. He lives in Los Angeles and goes to the MLG in Anaheim a lot. Husky first learned about StarCraft when he was about 10 years old, and has played it ever since. Husky started to commentate about StarCraft Brood lords and once made 100 videos in a month. He started getting even more popular when he commentated on StarCraft 2 Beta. Husky started doing a tournament with HDStarcraft making the HDH Invitational that is still going on today that includes 16 of the best players. In 2010, a few commentators joined The Game Station which seeks to emulate the presentation of games (from wiki). Husky moved to Los Angeles to pursue a full-time job working for The Game Station.
Terran is Overpowered
I believe that Terran is probably the most overpowered race there is. They have marines that can shoot both air and ground. They are really good in numbers and are also only 1 supply. Mixed with marauders, they can destroy almost any army, if marauders have concussion shells. They can slow approaching enemies and also slow down enemies that are running away. Not to forget when they have medivacs. Medivacs not only heal, but they can also pick up large amounts of units to drop at an enemy base.
Siege tanks are probably the most overpowered unit in the game. They have a very high ranged and do a massive amount of damage and AOE. You can place them on the ground and scan a ledge to shoot upwards. You can also place them on mini areas where the ground is elevated to shoot any enemy units that are passing by. They have more ranged than collosai and the only way to beat siege tanks are either with burrow or air units. Marines are usually always there to protect the tanks against air units, and most terrans will get ravens against zerg because of burrow movement.
Another really overpowered thing is the thor and battlecruiser. Battlecruisers can move much faster then they did before. They can shoot ground AOE and are really good against light units like zerglings and marines. They are powerful units against a few massive units like, the mothership, ultralisks, Broodlords, and carriers.
Thors can also do a lot of damage and AOE against air units. They are the ideal units against mutalisks and do so much damage to a group of them. They have a large amount of health and have a special attack which can kill ultralisks and other massive units easily.
Command centers can also be very overpowered at times. They can be turned into orbital commands that make mules, have scan sweep, and also give extra supply. When you are being attacked by dark templars, terrans can just scan sweep easily. They can use mules to get a lot of money unlike the protoss nexus which just makes things build faster or upgrade faster. Command centers can also be turned into planetary fortresses that can defend the area. They have the same ranged as stalkers and do tons of AOE damage.
Another very overpowered thing are the SCV's being able to repair. You can do an SCV rush and succeed by getting the SCV to repair each other. You can also repair damaged buildings and units so they are good as new.
