I have some replays and build orders from other high masters players who have been messaging me since the release of this guide. I am looking to test their variations and potentially create similar graphics for such variations. This probably won't be complete until I get the SWSS out of the way. When the build was worse, Pokebunny went over it on his stream: He is the one who suggested the 3rd CC before adding additional barracks  | ||

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but although this is a new and shiny build, it isn't some magic bullet. In my opinion, it's not necessarily even better than a lot of what we currently have in TvZ. I actually open reaper FE in TvZ and have done so for a while and experimented with mass reaper openers. A good player will drop a roach warren and produce just a few roaches at each base and there goes your attack. Meanwhile they can mass drone behind it as well, while taking a third | ||

I feel like in the current map pool. This is only good for shakuras and taldarim altar. But thats about it. If shattered temple was still in, this build would be amazing | ||

This should hit before speed unless you opened with gas, in which case T prob should avoid doing this build. | ||

I am doing much better holding roach bane with this than other things like hellion//banshee (could be because I suck at that though). Baneling bust is hard though and required catching wind of it out on the map. 4 queen opener and I am licking my chops because the speed is later and they often quadruple gas and I can catch the zerg teching. | ||
