Here are some example games: http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/125078_Bisu_vs_Last/vod (4 zealot) http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/116555_Bisu_vs_Light/vod http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/105192_Bisu_vs_firebathero/vod http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/games/104408_Horang2_vs_Light/vod 8 pylon 10 gate 12 pylon 12 zealot (1st) 17 zealot (2nd) 19 pylon 20 gas 20 zealot (3rd) 23 cyber 24 put 3 on gas 24 zealot (4th) Only if Rax expand. Otherwise wait. (Below assumes he didnt rax expo) 25/33 You have 270 minerals, 70 gas, cyber is at 80 percent. You are not making a 4th zealot. 26/33 pylon 27 goon (1st) 29 range 30 send probe to nat 31/41 nexus (starts a second before the goon finishes)(if vult is coming, wait a tick for your goon to cover the probe) 32/41 goon (2nd) 34 pylon 36 goon (3rd) 38 robo 39 send probes to nat 40 goon (4th)

That's why you don't see this build happen that often. It's hard to justify 300 minerals+time invested in those lots. Better to build other useful stuff. @1base Terran A best case scenario is to follow up with 2 goons and try and bust the wall up the ramp. The vision will also allow goons to pick of rines if a bunker hasn't been built by the ramp. I haven't watched the vods yet but I would put money one of the vods has that scenario in there. It's all about busting in right before that first tank pops. SCVs will also die or at least be pulled and forced to repair if the situation becomes critical for the T. Often the scouting probe is mixed in to help lead the charge if it's still alive.
