the greedier you expo the better, if you are doing a 3 gate expo it's basically an auto loss against a 1-1-1, 16 nexus is basically a auto win against 1-1-1 but the safest FE is 1 gate expo where you take your robo at around 6:00
once you confirmed a 1-1-1 by scouting you should spend all your chrono on probes till you have 16 on minerals on both bases, and 2 gas geysers at your main ( so total of 38-40 probes) and you need to slam down a total of 5 gateways and constant immortal production.
You only need 2 stalkers per banshee that he is harassing you with, you will warp in stalkers whenever you cleaned up his ground army. So in essence you have around 4-8 stalkers, rest pure zealot sentry immortal for maximum gaurdian shield/FF usage.
Good way to engage is in a choke, ie where you opponent is in a choke and you are not. Simply because of the fact that he will hurt his own units with siege splash and you can FF behind the marines to keep them from kiting and killing off your zealots. If you are confident enough in your FF usage you can actually go out in the middle and force sieges to delay his push, every warp in you get you will pull ahead in units.
This is really good advice. You said you make "equal amounts zealots and stalkers", but that is terrible. Stalkers get eaten for breakfast by siege tanks. You'll want to get up to 5 gates + 1 robo as fast as possible, and go zealot/sentry/immortal with only enough stalkers to deal with the banshees.
Post a replay asap though, otherwise this thread is pretty useless for you
