Ahhhh ... practice 
Good advise ... but what am I to practice? It would help to know some of the "secret moves". It is possible to "move around" and kill roaches with each move (rather than swings the sword). However, as seen in the enclosed graphic I am in the NE chamber and removed 2 queens but not the brain (not sure you have to kill the brain right away). Anyway, the clock is at 12 and there are 13 roaches coming for me. I do have to turn around so this takes a least 3 "ticks". So, my question is "how is it possible to move towards the 13 roaches, kill them, and then be in a position to attack either of the other queens in either of the other chambers all with in 15 ticks?"
So what "moves" do I need to practice? 
It's not really a 'secret move' thing, with the exception that you need to understand how brains make roaches move. In yout situation in your picture, I'd take out the last queen in that alcove, turn and move. The objective should be to be taking out one roach with each move -- if you get into an alcove where you can only hit one roach for every two moves, you'll likely be unable to make much headway. But if you move and smite at the same time, you should be able to force your way into one of the other alcoves and take out those queens...and by that time it becomes pretty easy. As with most of these multi-queen levels, it gets progressively easier the more queens you can take out.
Sorry not to offer any real tricks, but as Eytan said, this room is mostly a technique room. When you can take out brained roaches in a room like this, then you'll be ready for the rooms on Level mmmpf grrxxx...[remainder of message deleted for security purposes]
