I'll be giving this a try since FD has been giving me trouble since my goon micro is below average. My only real negative thought is that your first goon is so late the Terran will have unopposed scouting of everything you are doing. I guess they can't really kill you with that information, but they can at least delay ebay which opens up really strong Fac-CC-Fac and 3Fac timings if they scout your 3rd. It will be fun to play around with this on both sides! (I play TvP and PvT) | ||

I could also see this being stronger vs a 1rax CC. the early 4 goons with range means you can pressure their bunker hard very quickly, while still having a decent economy to follow up with. | ||

The first was Best vs Classic on Circuit Breaker, http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/60935_BeSt_vs_Classic/main and then Bisu vs Bogus on Icarus http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/67899_Bisu_vs_INnoVation I dont know of it being used apart from that, I think Bisu might have used it again like once though. The build sort of evolved into the 1 goon expo http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/bw-strategy/417964-pvt-opening-1-goon-range-nexus The t1 protosses in particular would get a second gate after the nexus, which reflects the build in this thread. Sun used that alot on Beltway etc. Shuttle for example was also quick to adopt this style and use it quite often; he did so on new empire of the sun quite alot etc. Soon after, other protoss players began favouring to stay on 1 gate and get robo and observatory while making goons out of the single gateway. I would say the STX protosses were probably the main guys who pushed this forward. By the later part of the 2012 season even the t1 protoss players were favouring to stay on 1 gate and get robo and observatory while making goons out of the single gateway. Thats why I focused on the later style in the 1 goon expo thread. | ||
