How do you respond to a non-proxy 2 gate before core in PvP? I assume you need to match his 2nd gateway but can you get a core first? Do you need to chrono your zealots?

If he's chronoing Zealots, I'd get Gate before Core. If not, then I'd go Gate Core Gate, with Zealots produced until I can make Stalkers.

How does Fungal effect Immortals? Since it's over time, does it do the full damage, or does it get reduced to 10 by Hardened Shields?

Hardened Shields has no impact on Fungal Growth:

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Fungal_growth#Other

"It deals 4.5 damage every 0.5 seconds for a total of 4 seconds (36 total damage)."

Even with the +30% damage, each tick is dealing less than 10 damage, so hardened shield does not take effect.

All forms of spell damage ignore hardened shields, you can kill immortals in one hit with a nuke.

Yeah that rings a bell. Shuffling probes around to maximize mining efficiency comes to mind but I think that's wrong.

Yeah I do it every game. You get your first 8 probes to mine the closest mineral patches.

It depends on the map. If you can wall off where your forge is on the map with 3 3x3 buildings, then build a cannon and 2 gates to block it off. If you can't wall it like that, then you have to build a pylon near your main nexus and put a cannon there, you need to sacrifice the initial pylon and forge.

From liquipedia:
MULE

See also: MULE

The Terran MULE is a temporary unit that mines 30 minerals per trip on standard patches and 42 on High-Yield patches. Additionally, MULEs can mine over other harvesters already mining a patch (excluding other MULEs), making them about as effective as three SCVs.

What exactly can zerg do against archon/zealot? I have tried ling/baneling/infestor and ling/infestor/roach/ultra... neither seemed to work.

Roaches. Add infestors if you want to be fancy (don't rush for them though). If you're losing to zlot/archon with roaches then either your macro sucks or you're not microing at all.

About adding infestors, one of the interesting things about zealot/archon is that is has no range to deny neural parasite and the composition is self-defeating (archons are really good against zealots) they might fall under being "too fancy" but I feel like roach/infestor with an eventual transition into broodlords should be a solid composition against most protoss armies.
