+1 Weapons
Get hallucination.
Warp in 6-7 sentries, then all stalker
Use hallucination and use phoenix to scout 3rd base and tech route.
Situation 1: See a roach warren.
Get a Robotics Facility and pump out immortals after observer.
Warp in all stalkers and drop 3rd base if 3rd is scouted.
If 3rd is not up, delay second expansion until ~11 minutes.
Twilight Council and 2nd forge.
Double upgrades, +1 weapons and armor.
Research blink.
SCOUT with observer.
If hydra den is added, add Robotics Bay and get colossi.
Add gates and drop second robotics facility if necessary.
Situation 2: See a spire
If the spire is half done, pressure the Zerg, so immediately move out, and throw down a twilight council for blink.
Once pressured, move back and put stalkers in each mineral line and two cannons.
Get a Templar archives going ASAP.
Grab your third.
Once you get your third up, add cannons and throw up 6 more gates.
Cut probes at ~75, leave a High Templar at each base, and throw down extra cannons before you move out for possible harass.
You should be able to end the game here with a huge stalker/zealot/sentry/high templar/archon death ball.
Situation 3: See an infestation pit.
Throw down a Templar archives,
Go for Chargelot/high templar/archon
Take your 3rd just like you did in the roach warren build above.
Watch for a roach switch. You will need to transition into blink stalkers/immortals if he does.
Watch your probe lines, the biggest issue with infestors is their ability to kill off an entire probe line with 4 fungals.
On maps like xel naga, on your 3rd, you need pylon + cannons on the high ground so you can spot it coming.
Very long read but if you wanna improve this guy is a good toss
