Analysis

The opening to this build, as expected from our boy Showtime, is as standard as it gets. In fact, we are not even going for a block on the hatchery, as is rather common now in PvZ. A 14 pylon, followed by a 16 Gateway, Scout,  17 Gas, 20 Nexus, 20 Cybercore, 21 Gas and 22 Pylon. You really can’t get a more standard 1 Gate expand.

Transition

The idea is, that when you scout an allin happening, you have the decision to make whether or not you want to take that next step, or stay on your current one, and for example just building a ton of cannons with your newly built forge. As Zerg Allins, especially of the Queen Pull variety, happen between 5-7 minutes, scouting is especially important around this time.
