Been trying out alot of your key principles, and I like alot of them!

Question:
1: What do you feel about drone scouting (around 9-10) for 2 gates. I have played a game where a bunch of zealots hit when my 4 lings were in the field, and it really was tough to deal with due to the fact that your build tends to be very larve effiicient early on.

2. I have been having tough time with early +1 zealot aggression into mass 2 stargate (from FFE) ----> either third,. or 2 base colli to hard counter hydra defense.
Because of this style, I feel like massing up queens can be a good option, due to the creep spread, and queens being just 150 min, instead of 50 gas. In other words --- queens into corruptors while having roaches for ground controll. The question is, When is the best time during the droning up phase to really start massing queens, while still being able to increase harvsters, and not cutting into your minineral bank to heavily to make roaches.

what do you do vs FFE into 4 gate with air or quick third transitions.

w/ and w/o +1

Thanks a ton for the guide.

I spent my day off studying this and couldn't quite get it all in my brain, so I took the back of one of my used business floorplans and drew this:

FFE Update would be awesome! I rarely met Gateway Expands in Ladder, ~90% of the games are against FFE

Alot of players have been delaying the gas for ling speed a very long time, do u think that the early gas is still necessary vs protoss?
The brofestors are after you next.
