Also, I really enjoy watching players like MC, Puzzle, HuK, etc. play protoss, and I think the way of play is really cool. Therefore, I intend to ladder as zerg for about a week while practicing as protoss. Because I'm such a big fan of HuK/MC, I've already found my new pvt and pvz builds- HuK's one gate expo in pvt http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=223726 Chinese/huk blink pvz http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=236230 My question, however, is how to approach PvP? I don't really understand how it works and I haven't found a solid build order that allows for economic play without dying to aggression. I'll try to update this blog with my progress training as a new protoss. Thanks TL for your help :D

I suggest you try Liquipedia as there is really great stuff there, but you can always find good builds on the TL forums made by the people here. I am a diamond protoss player and haven't laddered in about 3 weeks so I don't the know the newest trends but 3gate robo seems to work most of the time and 4gate is still strong. You can spice things up a bit with chargelot/archon, which is also really strong. I can sit here and list a bunch of strategies but eventually you have to figure out on your own which strategies and builds you feel more comfortable with and works best for your style. If you want to you can PM me for more info and if you want to play some time. Good luck
