Here is a quick 15 second video.

You don't need mines, you don't need workers to glitch it through, you don't even need to spam right click! You just need a single vulture lol

Pylons have to be diagonally spaced so it looks like a huge gap, but it's still a wall (for the vulture)

Instructions:
1) Send your vulture in between the pylon gap so that it looks like it's already on the other side.
2) Spam H and S (hold and stop)
3) Your vulture is on the other side. It won't move or anything, it's just magically on the other side.


Or just spam right click:

In conclusion:
Terran players: Have fun killing those probes
Protoss players: Make better walls noobs
Zerg players: Switch race.

a single stop is enough to make it go through.
but depending on wall location and exact movement of the vulture, it is easier or way harder to do.
you didnt even cage a vulture in 4 diagonal pylon, selected vulture and clicked right click outside of the cage

omfg you are right, just go up to the pylons and press S and it's like the pylon wall isn't even there. So much faster!!

this works vs any 31x31 pixel gap, like turret-ebay (turret top left, ebay bottom right) or ebay-rax (ebay bottom left, rax top right) or stargate-gateway (stargate top left, gateway bottom right)
(Wiki)List of Unit and Building Sizes

as for the reasons why this is working, i might not remember it 100% correctly....
1. for pathfinding, vulture is a 32x32 unit, so if you right click past wall, vulture cant cross it.
but in reality, vulture is a slightly smaller rectangle, based around which way it is facing.
2. if you press stop right before your right click location, a vulture decelerates slower than usual, making it travel further than your right click location. this extra traveling is also not bound by pathfinding, only by wall detection.

and by combining the 2 you can get through 31x31 pixel gaps

So Lazersnipe found out that you don't even need S, just spam right click away and you're good to go:

This has been discussed thoroughly at another place (general discussion?) already. It has to do with the gradual deceleration behaviour of hovering units, so you can do it with Archons and Dark Archons too. Pretty sure I posted a test map at the time, will check this evening.

I've known about this for ages but I thought you had to run up and then press hold or stop to glide through things. had NO idea you could spam right click for it. That's crazy!

You cannot do it with the typical walling Zerg buildings (hatchery, den, evo, colony) because none of their pairs have >= 31 spacing. Thank god.

EDIT: except for hatchery / hatchery, but who diagonally places hatcheries

This to be fucking bullshit why don't all the people who fucking discover these just fuck off and leave people in peace - god damnit. How much is this? Fucking???? Is anyone to realize how impactful this will be? More money instantly at wall, yes it will be to fucking matters. This shit should be deleted to prevent spread of this fucking info fucking building my wall already is like play Jenga and I do not think I should play Jenga combined with Russia Roulette. You are fucking this serious? What make you think that when P play, that 100 more mineral, in some case 200, spent right then and there because you need the wall fucking NOW is not a big deal? You are better to just plug the wall with a forge or so, but now you upgrade are vulnerable and not only this you are one less pylon away from max, so fucking stupid..... Can't wait to see this on ladder next fucking day, or better yet I will just make extra safe wall and people wonder why I am playing like an idiot. No sir it is you who are play like fucking idiot.

If it is a balance problem there is a simple solution for mapmaker to just add a doodad that makes it easier to wall, like they do for Terran all the time. But yeah, yet another punish in SC:BW for players who know to get free wins off players who don't. There's a tonne of them, but you have to accept it as part of the charm of this game, like the first time you get cannon rushed or the first time your tell your units to move past a wall and they all dance around like idiots, or the first time your dragoon freezes because you attack move too much. It's unintuitive but it's funny. Just like Terrans have to know supply depot must go above barracks not below to block Zergling.

I wonder if quirks like this in SC2 exist, or if they were all ironed out. I know walls are easy to make in sc2.

Doodads to help walling are 99.9% to aid Protoss players atleast in naturals!

You are better to just plug the wall with a forge or so, but now you upgrade are vulnerable and not only this you are one less pylon away from max


This is the most nonsensical thing, why is being less away from max bad? you want to open up as much supply as possible.

You should just use Hallucination on your Probes so that when the Vulture hacks his way through the Pylon wall and upsets the meta using a many-year-old trick, the chance of them killing actual Probes decreases.

fucking building my wall already is like play Jenga and I do not think I should play Jenga combined with Russia Roulette. You are fucking this serious?


Does feel like this sometimes LOL

I wonder if quirks like this in SC2 exist, or if they were all ironed out. I know walls are easy to make in sc2.


There are actually a few. Dumb example, if you wall in certain ways you can block zerglings from going through the wall with a zealot on hold position, but only if it's exactly in the middle of the space. If it's slightly off to one side then zerglings can go through which lets them run by or surround and kill the first zealot with fewer lings.

I've seen this one alone decide a handful of games at high pro levels, often the person on the recieving end just instaquits because it's unrecoverable.

You are better to just plug the wall with a forge or so, but now you upgrade are vulnerable and not only this you are one less pylon away from max, so fucking stupid..... Can't wait to see this on ladder next fucking day, or better yet I will just make extra safe wall and people wonder why I am playing like an idiot. No sir it is you who are play like fucking idiot.

Haha, the equivalent of Protoss not quite positioning a zealot correctly on a ramp, especially before forge FE was popular. SC is such bullshit. Or SCVs on a ramp with a marine behind to defend the ling rush.

Back in the days terrans used mines to glitch through these kind of pylon walls. Wasn't as reliable, though.

Nice find, I'm pretty sure this actually happened to me a couple days ago or so...I like the 2 pylon diagonal wall at the inner ramp of the 3rd base at 3 o'clock on fighting spirit, guess I'll have to add the third pylon or put a cannon in its place now lol.

Fucking awesome. I am so happy that I was able to produce something to get someone emotional enough to write a bunch of bullshit that gets them banned.

Sorry to disappoint your extreme happyness but I said that with intention to make laughter.
