I'm sure many of you protoss players out there have faced the well known Stephano style build where a zerg gets maxed at 12 minutes and can potentially all in and win the game.

I'm a high player and have been losing to this build quite often recently. I usually take my third at around 10 to 11 minutes when I see my opponent go for a third at 4:30. But most times, when I do this, the zerg player seems to react by just maxing out, denying my third and keeping me on 2 bases.

Is there any sort of immediate counter to this build you could do? One that you don't have to follow from the beginning of the game?

Let me know if you have a solution to this problem. Thanks and GL HF GG(enocide)
