I've done this build a lot, and like people say, turns into a base trade 100% of the time -_-. Kind of annoying, and aside from that if you want to be faking taking a 3rd so that zerg isn't you know, totally suspicious of a 2 base all in, you can't deny overseer scouting of your main, which then makes it quite clear what is going on. And if you are clearly 2 base all inning, the question then becomes what the zerg wants to guess you are doing, and you get into a bit of a coinflip.

Excellent points across the board. I (being zerg) had a lot of ZvP's on the ladder today, and of the maybe 2 1/2 macro games I got to play, none of them attempted a 3rd. I was able to use that info along with sacrificing some ovies to get clear ideas of what all in to expect. One thing I can say is, cannon rush into V-Rays is reallllly annoying.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
