online/offline:
i can be wrong, but reading the first post, it seems to be clear that the seasons are all online events.
if RSL can raise enough money to reach goal 3, they will commit to an (additional) offline season final event.
i don't see and expect them to fly a Clem/Cham/Reynor to S. Korea for a regular season playoff ro4 (with a <$10k price pool).

i don't think i'm that knowledgeable, but here we go

fact:
herO started doing this 1 pylon 1 gate cyber wall in ZvP a few years ago, and he is good at getting away with it.
this could be a bait to invite zergs to try to bust the wall. if all goes well and the opponent is a honorable macro Z, P can get up the third faster, while still having just enough units to defend it.

my theorycrafting/assumption:
you go adept first, and have godly scouting skills and game sense, confirm the zerg is indeed macroing, continue with the earlier nexus plan. you want your stargate down around ~2:17, chrono oracles.
if you see a lack of drones, more lings than usual, you can simply reinforce your wall with additional gate, you can delay your nexus a bit, wait for first and maybe second oracle, maybe add a battery to your wall, depending on how many lings you see.
