Hmm, if this is starting to get used more often, then I guess I'll start seeing Terrans opening 8rax vs P.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Nice bump!
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)
Opportunities multiply as they are seized.

I watched the Bisu vs Bogus game and Bisu puts his probe back on gas after he builds his nexus.

your micro is going to have to be really good if you use this build. even with faster range, you are going to have to micro like a god to hold off a strong fd. even with the faster second gate, it does not kick in timely for his push so you will need to micro very carefully to not let the tank get any shots off.

any build which involves getting a quick nexus is going to have a hard time with strong FD

yes absolutely, which you did not mention in the op. since the idea of your analysis was how it would counter an fd push well(which it does).

im still not convinced because i think 12 nexus does everything this build does and puts you at a more economical advantage against a fe terran

But I think with this build you're better equipped to deal with (non-BBS) bunker rushes/early vultures. 12nex has trouble with these.

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 harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

Does anyone still use this build? I just randomly remembered this today and I'm going to try it out again, I think it looks pretty solid.

Its still kind of cool, but no, this build was hardly used in televised games.
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.
