In what positions is this fast expand safe? And what build order from the Zerg can really mess up the Protoss?

pfff, in your post you said that if you stop the Zerg's nat expo and kill his hatch, you should go one base. However, wouldn't it be better to still fast expand so that you have an immense lead in economy?

well, if youre cannon rush succeeded, there is basically no way at all youre going to lose in this situation, except if you get caught off guard by either lings before you get cannons up at youre main, or if you get caught off guard by his one base tech.
vs both these options not going early expo is safer.
if you go still expo, you'll probably still win, but it is a little bit unsafer.



this isn't just about fast expanding in pvz, it's a big golden rule: when you're ridiculously far ahead, don't take any chances at all

WeLL, in P v Z, YoU MUST KNOW WHAT ZERG ARE DOING, get zealot speed asap regardless zerg is going. If they muta rush, they could just harass u until they get dras to hit u with. Fast expos, i like to make one osair to harass and scout, its pretty fast and safe unit to scout =D. If he go mutas, get least 4-8 osairs, whatever suits u, be sure to have some cannon around ur nat's. If Hydralisk, (Everytime i do fast expos, I either get lurker contained or hydralisk rush) So If you knew he was goign to lurker, ull be able to break lurker lockdown sooner than usual. Fast expos is to macro and tech at same time, risky though =D
I shall defy sound theory
