I don't think either one of them are really bugs. Hold lurker there are varying ways of doing it but the act itself isn't a bug at all it's just micro.

This is a really neat trick. I guess it takes a while to get used to, with all the stop spamming but still scouting with your ovvie and keep building drones on time.
Really cool to see those little buggers crawl. The game is almost 10years old and you still learn new stuff. Amazing.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

wow nice find, thanks for sharing.

edit: wow just tried it, hax :D
@Chill: you don't need to spam stop, just highlight the larvae with an Overlord and press stop once and the larvae just crawls to the side :O

So THIS is the secret to Jaedong's insane timing!!! rofl jk

Neat. If there was a way to do it without sacrificing scouting it would be that much better.

It's possible. You don't have to spam stop, just command the larva to do stop once and it'll walk all the way to the left on its own. Not sure why the OP says you have to spam stop.

Wow, thats crazy, I wish you could get them to move up/down/right though :p

I just watched the Jaedong VOD and the larva very obviously run right towards the minerals. Siiiick.

Yeah, it really makes me wonder how people find these things out. For the larva that was turning into overlord, he didn't do the trick so it would be closer to his opponent's base. So many little details that I missed in the first minute of the game. I can only imagine what other countless things I'm missing in the rest of the game.

I noticed that he didn't do it to the overlord larva but I just thought he forgot, I didn't even consider that he wanted it closer to Lux's base.
Wow.

Muta stack is a part of how the game works. The same thing can be done with any units. Hold lurkers I'd consider a bug though, because the "hold" command wasn't inteded for the unit to stop attacking, just to stay still.

Man this trick is so cool haha got try it when I play zerg for fun.

this is awesome and is 100% useful in all situations ur minerals are to the left of the hatch.

Aside from the very slightly faster mining, this would actually be applicable on Vampire to move the larvae in anticipation of egg blocking the choke/hatch (Yellow pimpest plays 2006). I guess it'd be useful if you're getting sunken rushed from the right too.
