PvZ: Dark Templar Into Skytoss

Can Dark Templar buy you the time to get into Skytoss? The idea is to use DTs to protect the third while two Void Rays pick off Overseers. If Zerg's push has no anti-air, meet it out on the map. That gives the Void Rays time to remove detection before the army reaches your Nexus. From there, I go into a Mothership, Carriers and Archons. The tradeoff is how much tech you're buying with very few units on the map. If Zerg drones hard and gets fast Lair tech, this opening gets a lot less comfortable. I go through the scouting, the defenses and the decisions in this replay. If this helps, please like and subscribe. Leave any questions about the build or other follow-ups in the comments.
