You can go for the old zvp build of double expand before pool, and then you can afford it because you're delaying everything else. but if he goes for 3rax reaper you are dead. | ||

The question is whether your build can stop these earlier attacks too? We all doubt it. And if it can't stop these earlier builds, then it's worse than an even greedier build e.g. gasless, since it'll die to the same things and still be economically weaker | ||

- Slower 2 base saturation - Faster creep at third - more larvae ( which you can't optimally use because of your slower two base saturation ) Now, why would you want this? If you're trying to sneak a third before its blocked ( which is why you see these kinds of builds in zvp where protoss can easily block a base ) or creep spread against a ~4:00 attack on the third? These things just aren't needed in zvt and your are hurting your economy progression to do them. This isn't four hatch before pool or a 12 pool 11 gas into expand, your build isn't horrible, it just isn't right. You are giving up stuff and gaining stuff you can't use or don't need. | ||
