Protoss player here, Terran secondary.

Let me assure you that you will not like the results when he/she uses Zergling Swarm( or even worse, the Crackling* Swarm) in conjunction with Dark Swarm against a mass of Photon Cannons. He/she will laugh, you will cry.

A combination of Archons, Reavers, Dark Templars and High Templars will fare much, much better.

However, against a good Zerg player, it is prudent to build two cannons before your Gateway. This is to counter his/her initial 6-2 Zergling Rush.

*Crackling: A Zergling that has both the movement upgrade, and the attack speed upgrade. Armour and attack are usually maxed as well.
