Something i could not found is Lurker stacking, which is really good to know at zvt. I would like to add a description but i dont know where exactly to insert it...like at "Unit Lurker" in Liquipedia or at the main overview for zvt were Hold Lurker are explained.

And here it how it goes:
-burrow one lurker
-select another lurker and move over the first one
-when the second lurker is above the burrowed lurker, rightklick on it so the second lurker will stop at top of the burrowed lurker
-when you burrow your second lurker, the opponent will not be able to see 2 lurkers, just one like normal

For a long time i thought it is just a timing thing with walk and burrow untill Bakuryu told me how to do it really. And this "trick" is easy to do after a few minutes of training and can get good results, so it should be a part of liquipedia

That would be useful if it satisfies one condition. And that one condition is the lack of Siege Tanks. By having all of your underground spiders lying in one single hex, you are prone to getting them ALL splashed at the same time and risking losing them at once.

I think a more useful application of the trick is to place the Lurkers on top of each other at the ramp with an Overlord's shadow looming on the upper level of the units while holding them. The Terran would then proceed on scanning, thinking that the shadow belongs to the Overlord and not the Lurkers'. And he would most definitely take this opportunity to punish that early third. What he doesn't know is that nasty little gift basket that lies underground waiting for him to pick up.

As good as that sound, it does require an extreme minimap awareness on the incoming units. If you let the units attack too soon, the Terran would just obliterate the defense and the Zerg would be in a tight situation and that would mean losing the expansion. And if you let them go too late, well, the product would be equally devastating.

Well, normally this technique is used with 2 lurkers to defend the ramp at the third against the first marine push. Ofcourse it is not good vs tanks but it is something even korean pros are using. If the terran has enough tank(s) to push out, usually he will have a vessel by his army too.

And im not talking about hold lurker, this is different.

More of these.

More Front page articles. A step in the right direction if you ask me! We should also get a page where all current and near future events are listed.
