Starcraft Protoss 2 Gateway Opening Rushing
So i have been playing the game a lot since it has come out but im having problems playing against the zerg. It seems i keep getting owned by other players when they rush me with the zerg. Whats my best bet to actually kill off the zerg players in the game. I have the main 2 problems keep coming up when playing. The first is it takes way to much time to get my gateway and first pylon out. The second problem is early mid game the zerg keep killing me before i can stop them. So what is my best plan of attack in order to stop the zerg rush using the protoss.

Well you need to change your style first of all. The races are all equal overall so no one should always be able to kill the protoss if their zerg. You need to figure out your build order more so you can stop protoss rushes in the game. Here are some of the best ways to stop the zerg early in the game.
1) The first one is called a walling move. Basically use your building to make a narrow path that the zerg have to go thru in order to reach your base. Whats great about this is it forces them to fight your zealots of 1v2 or 1v1. What makes this great is zealots are strong than pretty much any tier 1 type of toon in the game. So you can easily kill the zerglings and win the match.
2) When you build the wall in technique. You should use sometimes cannons on the sides so zerglins will be attacked while trying to rush you. This helps because when they are fighting your zealots they will also be getting attacked from all sides. Also remember to get some dragoons out as fast as possible as they can deal more damage than zealots can with their reach.
Most of the time when it comes to rushing and fighting the races in starcraft there is a lot needed for depending on the race you are fighting. Because protoss versus terran is totally different than protoss versus zergs. That is something that makes the game so great. While at the same time its a pain in the butt because you have to change your strategy’s for game. It gives you such a greater reward when you do actually win.
Anyways i hope that answers your question for fighting a starcraft 2 zerg rush using protoss
