    Everyone knows the 4gate, and many people probably know some specific 4gate builds and general styles of 4gate builds. Well I saw a pretty good 4wg build and I thought I'd share it for those who want specific timings. Personally I like really precise play, so I usually remember my builds to the dot up through the early-mid game, and follow a fairly close blue print after.

    Credit on this one goes to Socke. 6 stalkers, 4wg in 5:30-5:40 time range.

    [Cut Probes @ 19 + Scout]

    9 Pylon
    10 Gateway
    10 Chrono Nexus
    Chrono Nexus
    13 Assimilator
    15 Cycore
    16 Pylon
    Stalker / Chrono Warpgate Tech
    Chrono Warpgate Tech
    +2 Gateways
    +1 Gateway
    Chrono Stalker / Chrono Warpgate Tech
    Proxy Pylon
    Chrono Warpgate Tech
    3 Gateways ---> 3 Warpgates
    Last gateway chrono to warpgate
    4 Stalkers
    Proxy Pylon

    Just keep making stalkers/zealots and go for the win.
    Note: The timing of the first proxy pylon here might be off. Just throw it down when you know you need to.

    So that's all probably confusing as hell to look at, so I attached a replay.

    Too detailed? Well here is the basic idea...

    Stalker
    +3 Gateways
    Stalker
    2 Chrono boosts on Nexus
    4 Chrono boosts on cycore
    The rest on stalkers and whatever.
    4 Warp gates

    I'm a little confused...how would you beat the timing if you got cycore later and chrono boosted less? The times I put were measured by when the last stalker finished warping in by the way.

    OK, tell me, because you've used it multiple times, how the feck does wgp stand for warp gate?

    That's how. =P

    By the way I should have probably mentioned...this is basically a PvP build. It doesn't make too much sense against Zerg due to zerglings, and against Terran I guess it might work. I think sentries are more the thing against Terran though. With that said though...it could be tweaked if needed. I haven't actually used it against anyone yet. I'm not a huge fan of all-in plays.

    Maybe not just Warpgate, but WarpGate Push or WarpGate Play? :p
