So I've had a real trouble with PvT since release (was about 50% in beta) and I was hoping you guys could help me with my PvT as I have consistently lost the last 20 or so PvTs I've played on ladder.
I only have one replay unfortunately as I forgot to save the others and I've been 2v2ing with a friend a lot lately. As I play (and lose) more PvTs I'll upload more replays.
I really hope you guys can criticize my play and help me improve (dont be mean tho xD)

This game is on Jungle Basin, it opens up with the Terran doing an agressive push, I hold it off with a bit of trouble and so I quickly end up on the backfoot and on the defensive. I also get supply blocked right as I see him move out with the xel naga. I opened 3 gate hoping for a 3 gate expo build, but his constant pressure forces me into 3 gate robo and i have a very hard time expanding. He pushes me several times and each time I manage to kill his entire army. However with his expo fully saturated way sooner then mine he just outmacros me bad and I lose.
Can you guys see any big flaws in the play that I should work on? I appreciate any insight you guys can give, and thanks in advance.

On jungle basin it's almost always safe to open with a 1 gate FE ala kcdc. Just make sure he's not going for some cheesy all-in. 3 gate is a really weak build vs terran from my experience, you have no detection until late and it usually helps to just defend with 1-2 immortals while teching to colossus.
EDIT: Also, you were ahead for most of the game, but you never really did anything with it. You need to tech to colossus MUCH sooner, 18 minutes is simply way too late. And by the time you had colossus he had enough vikings to counter it. Once you start seeing vikings its time to start teching to templar.
Your reaction time at the first push was really really slow. You lost half your zealots because of that. Also, theres almost never any reason to ever wall off vs terran. You're just asking to have your buildings picked off. While its not applicable here, It could cause problems in other situations.

your macro was poor, (so was his but you can improve yours) also the wall off at the front made you unable to concave, so he was fighting only half of your army at any one time.
I agree with the poster above me, you need to tech faster.

I also figured that the wall off was a bad idea, i just couldnt remember which race i was agaisnt so i decided to be safe.
