Safe PvP FE build into blink+disruptor [guide] (PvP Economic)
Description
This is a guide on how to open safely in PvP and transition into the midgame to get the compostion you want. I also discuss the numerous things I think when playing PvP and how to handle the numerous attacks that come at you. I encourage you to watch my YT vid along with just the build order because there is a lot to be learned in all the variance you face.* Note: I don't usually open 2gate defensive style, but I had just played this opponent, however; it is not bad to open 2 gate for safety especially in lower leagues where you can be less sure with what you are facing/ lots of early aggresion builds!*

Build Order
| 14 | 0:20 | | |
| 15 | 0:40 | | |
| 17 | 0:52 | | don't start mining, don't get cyber core when gateway finishes |
| 19 | 1:20 | | start mining gas at 1:27 |
| 20 | 1:27 | | |
| 21 | 1:36 | | dont cut probe production at any point |
| 21 | 1:46 | | OPTIONAL: you can do this build WITHOUT this gateway, scared of pressure this is okay, although I don't usually get this gateway |
| 22 | 1:55 | | |
| 22 | 2:05 | | placement is HUGE, try to have the first two on both sides of your assimilators to cover your mineral field |
| 23 | 2:20 | | |
| 25 | 2:21 | | adept after MSC |
| 29 | 2:36 | | |
| 34 | 2:55 | | at natural, either at the top of ramp or in mineral field, usually top of ramp to halt agression. |
| 40 | 3:20 | | |
| 45 | 3:48 | | |
| 46 | 3:57 | | |
| 47 | 4:14 | | |
| 48 | 4:30 | | you should be fully saturated at your natural by now, good check in point, gases could've been taken even a bit sooner |
| 50 | 4:42 | | get one obs and stalkers now, Normally you would get a robo BAY and a forge around the same time, then add 2-3 more gates before expanding for maximus safety, this game I took a reactionary third so it was different. |
Analysis
This game is more of a guide to scout what to look for what to go for in standard games. A very normal thing you could do is after 3 gate robo, go robo bay->forge-> 2/3 more gateways. This game I took reactionary third so it was different, but usually you can play even safer if you wish before expanding. Blink stalker disruptor is strong and eventually going into some archons and immo's is not too bad. If facing heavy 5/6 gate blink early you could go immortals before disruptor for defense.

Hey Mcanning! Cool build. I am new to this game, but I have been trying to get this build into my (muscle)memory.
It seems like the robotics facility isnt encoded in the Salt (or meantioned in the build order).
Is there any way that you could update this?

Good build but problem with Salt encoding and build at 20 !
