If you cut at 20 for your gates you get them up way before warpgate is finished. I found you can get an extra stalker or two probes and still get your gates up in time. I'll see if I can work out an exact bo for it. | ||

If you don't make the stalker until the nexus and gates what stops the scouting scv from seeing everything? Worse, what stops them from just rallying a marine into your base and killing probes until that stalker pops. With no gateway units at all, even just walking the first marine over seems like it should be really bad. | ||

This is a pretty good replay to study if you want to try out this build. If the terran doesn't scout you first, they can't reactor-tech lab 2rax and are force to use the arguable more versatile tech lab-reactor 2rax. In this case, he scouts me last and tries to break it anyway by pulling workers. But since he wasn't able to adjust earlier because of the scout timing, he went tech lab-reactor and you should be able to hold this cost effectively. Added the rep to OP as well ^^ Happy HuKking! | ||

This build is a freaking sexy build. It feels A LOT safer than a 16 nexus, but gets an expansion earlier than a 1 gate FE. However, the timings on this build is freaking awesome. You can put A LOT of pressuure while getting a HUGE economy. For some reason I feel like I can double forge + templar tech much easier, safer, and faster than a 16 nexus and a 1 gate FE. Thanks! | ||
