Again, all of these replays except for the last one were from when I was in Silver league. I am now Platinum and plan to gradually replace the old ones with new ones.

I don't like 1-base nydus as a stand-alone build AT ALL.

It's a great tool to have in your arsenal if you can transition from one of several standard openings once you scout some greedy FE (forge FE, 1rax FE, etc) but to just do it blindly from the start... this is a bad move.

You might catch your opponent off guard, but he's going to know something is up when he sees 1-base mass ling anyway, and he'll likely stay on 1-base preparing for the all-in.

One of the GOLDEN RULES of sc2 is that you don't drop someone turtling on one base. And if the opponent sees you are one-basing, he knows some kind one-base aggression is coming. He should be absolutely prepared to deal with this.

I see.

Well, maybe once I make it up to mid-high Diamond, I'll be able to develop more of a mid game build which uses the Nydus.

1/3 Lair evo
+1 meele
@200gas Nydus
Nydus into Enemy Base, hope he doesn't see it and it should be a gg

U can not Transition out of it so if it doesn't work try to Nydus His Front and hope his Army Went to the back to defend.

Its Kind of funny but i don't think it will work on upper leagues...

The problem with nydus is that it relies on your opponents bad observation. Every good player is going to smell something when he sees you are on one base.
