In Brief: Found a 1v1 luna game in the one on one section, I was surprised people still played this map. So I went in.
Guy does not speak a lot, only says "go"
I said "Wow luna this is good memories!"
He said "go?"
I said "Sure if you want to"
"go?"
"GO"

Anyways overall the game was brief and rather uninspiring timing attack, but it does show 2 gate is a valid way to deal with the popular trend of the over_pool build for at least lower ranks (I'm D so far).
Note:
This game it works out because
1: Luna has wide ramps, 2 gate is good because run-by is hard to stop, and 1 gate makes ramp hard to hold
2: Luna top-top and bot-bot distance is very close for rushes
So the idea in brief:
Open 2 gate, 10/12
Hold zealots on ramp, hides additional zealots if possible
Keep scouting, and when you feel his hatchery is done, but right before his sunkens come up, You want to be at his natrual with shitload zealot/probe
The timing will work out since he sacrificed a lot for speedlings, the later hatch means the sunkens will be also late.
Just micro abit and rape him whille tech/expanding
Popular choice for zerg would be speedhydra for the microholic, as they do rape slow zealots, or some kind of massive ling rush. In any case get zealot speed while making sair and adding cannons seems to be safest.
Anyways watch replay and drop a comment, I'm just very happy I won a game haha.
I'll be posting a losing replay soon enough

Was against a Protoss on Tau. He proxied 2 gates middle of the map and pressured hard with zealots. My wall-in was up (which is a bitch on Tau) and I got a tank and a vult out. He keeps putting pressure on my wall and I can't float out my CC. I get siege up, 2nd and 3rd fact and a starport, still on one base. Still the attacks are coming and due to my SCVs pulled a tad too late one sup dep goes down and 3 heavily damaged goons make it into my base. Sonuvabitch. I have to land my CC in the gap to wall of and tanks/scvs deal with the goons. I need to get back in this and as my dropship pops I hop 3 vultures into his main. With his his army at my doorstep and his building facilities somewhere out in the snowy fields of Tau they do massive damage to his probeline. As his army moves back I grab my opportunity and pick off the remaining forces outside my nat. I wall of my natural and when my second dropship pop I double drop: vultures in his main and a tank on his nat cliff with 2 vult in his mineral line. The vults in the main are dealt with quickly but most probes in his nat die. He leaves. <3
