Fitzy's Proxy Hatch build?

Talk shop here. Builds, micro, macro, maps and tactics are the name of the game. If you're lucky, the ROOT guys might drop in and show you a thing or two about infestors.

I have browsed the internet for the build that ROOTFitzy uses when proxy hatching a protoss player. Now that I have found out that there are forums for ROOT I decided that this would be a good place to ask. I understand if you would rather not share the build. Thank you for your time!

I don't actually think players go into a game expecting to proxy hatch, rather it's a reaction to something else.

For example, if I delay my spawning pool a bit and a toss pylon blocks both my natural and 3rd, then I'm going to be floating some minerals for a while, being that my plan was to spend 300 minerals right now, but I can't do that anymore. At that point you can (should a drone be in the right place at the right time) drop a proxy hatch and get gas, roaches, etc. while getting lings out to take your natural, as opposed to floating 700 minerals until you try to do a very inefficient double expand.

Fitzy usually only proxys against protoss when they block his nat and he usually goes 15 pool and gets out 6 lings to distract the protoss from his hatch... but he also does a double proxy hatch build and that is
Drone to 11 using extractor trick, send that drone to scout.
11 Overlord, send 2nd drone out.
3rd drone a little after that, (optional)
keep droning while harassing buildings scvs
17 proxy hatch
17 proxy hatch
(17 proxy hatch optional)
17 pool
17 gas
Roach warren (when pool finishes)
6 roaches
which is more of i really want to cheese this guy it also works vs terran
