Moving this over from the other thread. I'm an idiot and didn't realize there was a new one.

I first posted:

Ok, noob question here. I'm trying to learn to do a 4-gate but I'm having a hard time. I can never pull it of fast enough. my opponent has built up a slightly better army that quickly beats my 2 zealots and 2 stalkers.

Any tips? This is the first time i've actually tried learning a build order. Do I have to pull it off exactly as specified or can I vary a bit and still do ok? Should I be focusing on speed or accuracy of my order? (sometimes i'll build an extra probe where I shouldn't etc)

Then:
1. We are using a new thread now. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=480999

2. Speed matters alot. If your not done by 6mins or less then you fail. Dont make more probes unless you want 2 gas...then meh

3. Luck

4. Why you 4 gating brah?

edit:
I'm 4 gating because It seems like it's a popular build. So I figured i'd learn it first. What should I be learning?

(Protoss vs Protoss)
9 Pylon
12 Gateway + Probe sent to scout
14 Assimilator
16 Pylon
17 Cybernetics Core
18 Zealot
21 Stalker
23 Warpgate research
24 Gateways x3 (4 total)
24 Stalker
26 Proxy Pylon

Just practice in a custom game alone/vs computer

Warpgate done at 5:45 is the perfect timeing

Perfecting this build order will get you to master in pvp lol; sad game

I need an incentive to play more...

How about this, if I don't make gold by July 17th (2 weeks) I'll give a random person 10$ through paypal. No bullshit. Let's do this.

I just watched. JP is pretty bad at asking follow up questions to things Destiny said.

Really need to catch up on these. Wonder if there available as a podcast on iTunes like SOTG.


Anyone picking up one of the team liquid hoodies? God I want one but I have enough sc2 hoodies.
 
I want 10 lol

But yeah seriously best way to play is to consciously set some time aside for playing 1v1

If you do that it becomes easier to grind more games. Or just start streaming lol the pressure of people watching will make you ladder more too.
 

Ikuu

Had his dog run over by Blizzard's CEO
He's usually pretty good in these real talks too :/

I thought he's been pretty bad in all of them from what I've seen, he basically just asks a list of questions and does little to get more information.
