Hey guys, thought i would share my guides for everyone to see i release new videos every week and if there is any specific builds let me know i'll try to talk to some pros to get some build orders.
Coming up i have some LiquidSheth Roach Ling Bane Fake 3rd Pressure Style coming up.
I used to do a similar build back when I was diamond (Like over a year ago). I feel like the build is pretty dependant on the map, as the bigger your opponent's base is, the less likely they are of having a pylon in position to spot the nydus going down. You also have to take into consideration how larger of an area they need to simcity with the forge FE, the larger the area, less chance of pylons in the main. Usually, the maps with the bigger bases are also generally larger, 4 player maps, which also is better for the build as you'll have a better chance getting a 15hatch down (If thats your style) and defending any incoming probe scouts.
Also, on some maps you can have an overseer at the natural as well and have increased nydus opportunities. Gives you a second chance if the initial nydus fails, and also gives an easy pathway behind the sentries at the bottom of the ramp (Which the protoss will make unless they want no chance of winning).
this build(cheese) CAN work but it relies entirely on your opponent stuffing up; either not scouting the edge of their base properly or not noticing the building nydus early enough to pull workers to kill it.
I also don't recommend going hatch first because you can lose a lot if they cannon rush well or you lose a lot of mining time if they fake cannon rush like in the vid. also on closer rush distance maps it's even worse because a fast zealot may cause some problems

Did you even watch the video? I explained that all in it...
i used to do this in the very early days of sc2 when protoss used to cannon rush a lot (macro hatch in main off 1 base). it should get to his base just as warpgate finishes or 1 voidray is out so they really cant stop it without scouting the nydus also i switch into banelings instead of hydras so you can break any walls they build and you should be able to kill them before any air units can kill your units however minigun used forcefields instead of walling off which makes it harder.
I was thinking he was going to talk about the silent nydus network when talking about nydus master. I guess Ill have to make a post about it some time.

Haha I used to do this occasionally in diamond, was super lulz. Still do it if they successfully pylon wall me like a ******
