Aequitas wasn't criticising your build itself - just the way you executed it. If you're building a gateway, you should be placing it down right at 150 minerals, not at 200.

ah ok sweet thanks for that
heres another rep i just played, had a pretty bad opening, but just feel so helpless later in the game.
tried to go straight up to templar with obs for scouting as you guys mentioned last night. but just seem to have the weakest army when he comes in with stim and i can never hold my third

A timed push strat i have found very useful up to plat league goes like this.
9-pylon
13-gateway
15/16- 2 gas
then keep chrono boosting the crap out of your worker line.
you do that to help get your minerals back up since you went such early gas
you stick with the 1 gate way and build 3 zealots and 1 sentry.
while zealots are being built you put down a robo and get out a warp prism
while prism is coming out you hide a robotics bay in your base to prevent scouting of early colo
eventually you will have a total of 3 gateways and 1 robo.
you chrono your colo out as fast as you can (dont worry about range upgrade) and push when you have 2 colo and an army mix of zealot/stalker/sentry colo.
this push should take place at around 9-9:30 and you can expand behind this.
you have a couple options with your warp prism you can harass before your colo are out and do a drop with the zealots and sentry, but you need to make sure to save the prism and units inside. then when you do your push you bring the prism along and reinforce your push as you go along. sorry if this doesnt make much since I quickly typed this out but I hope you get the general idea.
