Description: The Korean Four Gate build is known for its strength in the Protoss vs. Protoss starcraft 2 match up. This is a very useful and noob friendly build for players looking for an easy Protoss build order to start with.
The basic idea is that you get four gateways with Warp Gate tech ASAP. Bring a probe or two to their base as your last gateway is halfway done and build pylons around their base.
Your initial goal is to cripple their economy and then potentially cripple them. By warping zealots into their mineral line, you'll absolutely devastate their ability to produce counters. After producing zealots, stalkers might come in handy for taking out enemy zealots/stalkers.
Stalkers should kill zealots, but this requires micro. If you're interested in learning how to micro stalkers, please consult this video.

I don't recommend using this build in any other match up. Early aggression can outright kill you in the other match ups, but it is useful for pumping out some early aggression. It is entirely possible to win with this build order against the other races, but be aware that you should be regularly scouting your opponent and know if they are building up an army.
If you are unable to scout their base, leave a probe outside of their entrance so that you know when they are moving out. Keep a couple of sentries at the entrance of your base so that you can forcefield it and block entrance to your base.
