    Does 9 Pylon - 13 Gateway work on Zergs? I think it's really strong economical build, but I am wondering if this works against Zergs since they rush so quickly. Any thoughts?

    Too vague. Also, building placement and map in question.

    That really depends on if Zerg expands or not, depends on your build. You can close your main with a zealot and go for robotics if he is going to roach, or simple be agressive with a awesome 4 gate push if he took his expansion.

    But the more important thing ever is the timing push !!

    Screw all of you guys, i always go 9pylon 13gate >=(
    Yes, depends on the other player, but due to me getting rush over 9000 times, i've expanded that to a 3-gate technique w/ robobay + templar.

    It works fine if you just build a gateway at the ramp and block with a zealot. If you're afraid of a really early rush, you can scout with a probe.

    I play zerg and I always have problems with 3 gate + robo (colossi). So, try that.
