how does this build fair vs daul spine cralwers and 8 lings? vs the 1st pressure. (that what i've seen sum pro's do around the 6min mark)

2 Spines and lings? Just back off he already has been forced to make shit apparently and thats goal. Poke around and clear watch towers find stray things but dont attack the spines or fight a fight on creep.

Im trying this out and by now I can say that it has worked like 50/50 for me. If I can do damage on the first warpin push, or even force lings/roaches, I can win later. If my initial push got denied, then I most likely lose after this. I'm high diamond btw, was master last season but got demoted on this season.

One thing to notice is the timing. Even if zerg plan is massing roaches stephano style, you got 'em on a really good timing where you can forcefield the hell out of em. 5 sentries seems few, but its enough to keep the threat away from you.
Another thing really important is the engage. You need to engage on small chokes otherwise you'll just die.

I personally dislike any type of all in, but sometimes is all you have and its a powerful tool to have on an arsenal.

Great write up and congrats and good luck on your new team

Thanks to this build I've yet to lose a single PvZ this season (not including a 6 pool and two random players getting zerg). It's really, really good.

Hi all, there is. Slight tweak on the build, or I guess, a small note. You really should try to hide the extra 3 Gateways if you can. And take a 3rd nexus right after your first round of stalkers, that way Zerg might think you're playing macro with them then bam, cancel and roll them over with blink stalkers!!

this looks a lot like kiwikaki's +2 blink all in that has been around forever. how is it different?

I didnt know anything about kiwikaki's build or his play styles, and I figured out the build order and timing all on my own.

I do this kind of build a lot, but I do a 2 gateway opening, 4 zealot with +1 attack instead, and then add 5 more gates later (after +2 and blink are started). I remember this used to be popular a while ago, not sure if it is still good, but it works for me I guess lol.

yea, 2 gate opening not as strong imo, i mean, it's def a variance but do you chrono out zealots? because that generally slows down your warp gates and the initial stalker is meant to kill overlords that are coming into your base as well. i dont think you will get as much sentry energy if you start 2 gate opening, i still beat pros with this build, it's def a solid build to do

When you do the 4gate push at the 7~8 min mark at the 3rd, what do you do if you see 1 to 2 Spine Crawlers and some zerglings?

I've run into this and the zerg defended the push easily with no apparent damage.
