Why can't you normally get more than 2 reavers? Because normal people don't have the micro to keep them safe from goons.
Why can't you normally go pure zealot/archon? Because the goons will pick off too many of them before they get in range.
Why do we never see a stargate? Because goons brutally counter anything that it could make.
Literally every unit you can make as protoss gets significantly stronger because of no goons (except for DTs being about the same, maybe only a little better, and corsairs are the same i.e. totally useless)
Corsairs will be one of the most important unit!!!

You're drunk! xD What corsairs lol... SCOUTS. Scouts will be epic. How can you defend against a reaver with corsairs? Do you attack it with zealots or probes? rofl both are sooooo efficient against it. ;P (yea you could attack it with a reaver, but that hardly seems a wise idea) Also, what will you do with corsairs when there's no shuttles around? (at the beginning)
I've made a few wicked builds by theorycrafting, have to test them out, but they should work. Can't wait to see if anyone comes up with anything similar. :D

Zero Dragoons?
Scouting will be amazing. Three zealots trying to corner a probe...
Either air or archons will be necessary to shoot up. Seems like, opening-wise, Stargate > Robo > Templar Archives > Stargate.

Actually yes.. mass sairs >>> mass scouts
|
sairs are the strongest air limit afaik ;D
