CC first is used on this map, but then you're completely in the dark. Nexus first is sometimes seen too, but a Reaper opening can equalize, so this is why Protoss don't systematically use it.


Ok, thanks! So CC first can hold proxy oracle then?

If you scout it, yes. If you sent your SCV scout the wrong way, you're toast.

Sometimes I actually envy protoss players since they have so many options on how to play out the game. As a scrub terran I go reaper expand every time.
