So, you want to learn about the Zealot rush, huh? It is a pretty good rush and it is hard to fend it off, of course depending on how good the rusher is. I'm no good with Protoss and I'm sure there are alot better ways to do the Zealot rush, but this is the one I have been told. I never use it tho, since I never play Protoss.

As the game starts, take your probes and make them get minerals...then build probes until the numbers in the upper right corner says 8/9. Then build a Pylon and then let the probe wait by the Pylon until it's done and then build a gateway and then another gateway as soon as you got money enough.

Then build two probes and a Zealot when the gateway is done. Then you go on like this, build a few more probes and about 5-6 pylons while you're pumping out Zealots....you might want to build another gateway also.
