Theres nothing really wrong with 4gating, it teaches you clear decision making along with strongly emphasizing early unit control. Both of which are important if you want to improve. My advice would be to either try and improve your 4gate, which is already a strong build or look at doing a 1gate tech opener which Stallion touched on.

GL HF!

Actually there no called 'build order win' but certain build order gives you a HUGE advantage over others. Like if you decide to go 3 gate blink allin(yes i know noone do that nowadays just an example) against a 3 gate DT build, you will literally die to the dts as you have ZERO detection.

There are actually 3 major type of builds in PvP.

1 gate into tech (Relies heavily on sentries to def the ramp while you get your desired tech out)
3 gate into tech (Much safer as you only rely on minimal sentries but you get your tech out slower)
4 gate (Allin!)

All of them have their on advantages. For example, the 3 gate into tech would be good against the 1 gate IF you pressure them and force some sentries and making them think you are 4 gating. While if you don't pressure, the 1 gate tech would have a tech advantage over you. 3 gate into tech i think is the BEST build as long as you get the correct read over your opponents build(see 2 gas = put pressure/ Late or no 2nd gas = defensive posture)

PvP is all about reading the 2nd gas timings, 10, 12 or 13 gate? What do i do to react to that?
Then your preference towards a certain tech and whether you like to be aggressive or defensive.
