| I'll share my three builds although they may not be exactly what you're looking for...
TvP
Kamker's stim shields timing
This build is BOSS. Lower league protoss will die outright to the timing, better ones wont. Be careful to take a good engagement, it is better to run away with your army intact than lose it, just barely not get the nexus and then die outright to a counterattack. Be especially carefull running up the ramp if they put down the nexus cannon cause that this has way the hell too much range. If they have third first colo pop as you hit you can snipe it but be on top of your micro or you can die. Make sure to get there about 30s before the timing and bait out a nexus cannon such that it expires right at your timing. Being late is absolutely unacceptable, practice until you can stim and attack within 5 seconds of the benchmark before trying to use on the ladder.
TvZ
depot at top of ramp (scout with this worker and look for early gas, hide behind zergs third mineral line to see expand timing)
14cc on high ground
15 rax finishes walloff
15 gas
reaper (get in the base and scout, try not to lose it but you *must* see if there is tech present)
1 marine
factory & reactor on rax
* if they are taking a third get 4-6 hellions
* if they have a roach warren get mines and build bunkers close
* if they have a baneling nest get hellions and build bunkers with distance, make a double layer wall with a gap
2 rax & starport (can get 3rd cc before rax if they take early third)
ebay
medivac, stim, +1, shields
This build is pretty risky and absolutely depends on scouting the zerg to not die. If you can defend a bust cleanly you will have a decent advantage and if they take that faster third you won't have to be behind for playing too defensive. SCOUT!!!
TvT
Man, I'm not sure what to tell you here. I suck at TvT. I do maru anti banshee expand but im rapidly becoming convinced its not a good play with the current meta. Several higher level players have told me that gas first banshee is better and I may be switching...
In case you want to try it, http://imbabuilds.com/hots-te....-expand
You need to be sure to scout and adjust for aggressive reaper builds, gas first banshee (raven will pop a bit too late against gas first so be careful) and in particular drop play. I took an embarassing loss vs http://imbabuilds.com/hots-te....om-drop with this build in a clanwar the other day as i misread it as banshee.
I hope this helps!

| Three really good builds that will put you into high masters will correct execution:
TVP
Kamker stim timing which is somewhat based of off Hearts stim timing. You can't do that build if they go double gas with 3 workers mining in each because an oracle will crush you, but if you play correctly and instead do innovations 2-1-1 scv pull you will be masters TvP no time so long as you execute correctly.

http://imbabuilds.com/hots-te....cv-pull
TVZ
This matchup is by far the hardest to make ezpz builds with, simply because TvP is the most micro intensive match up in the game (for both sides). If you want quick wins do Maru's Hellbat Banshee build, but if you're looking for something a little more stable that can carry you through the game play either innovations CC first or the Innovation Reaper 3CC (Which was actually created by Flash, however Innovation popularized and perfected it).

http://imbabuilds.com/hots-te....ion-3cc
http://imbabuilds.com/hots-te....ion-3cc
TvT
Lastly this matchup is all about scouting and reacting. A build I have found works against almost any other opener is the Taeja autoturret drop. It can do game ending damage while still being one of the safest openers in the game, and it gets you a well timed CC. If you execute and react accordingly vs Terran cheese, you can beat any form of agressive opener with this build.

I hope this was able to give you the help you needed, and if you have any questions about these builds don't hesitate you pop me a message on sc2
