Omg and they stay there too haha I just tried it and it's awesome. It's not hard at all to do it and let your ovie continue scouting. Just use hotkeys and the minimap to keep the ovie moving while you watch your larva.

Wow if this is true this could be HUGE.

Remember YellOw's Larva wall?


Things like that could happen more often if you could control your larvas.

Also, whenever I'm making drones, I'm always wishing I could control them so they spawn closer to the minerals, and away from the hatchery, because sometimes the drones get buggy and dance around the hatchery for a few seconds before going to work.

Nice find. I don't think many people noticed the special Larvae behavior. ^^


€dit: Omg, the next thing I did after posting was to watch the gorush bnet attack and he's doing it too! You can see him selecting the larvae together with an overlord. Why did nobody notice this earlier? They must have been doing it all the time. :D

Mainly it helps to increase APM, seems like.

why wud someone want an increased apm when they are a progamer, its just for the trick of it imo.


How's Romania this time of the year?

Pretty neat trick! It's quite nice that there is still room for tricks in SC after all this time

When the larvas block for hatcherys you make drones of the larvas then cancel them fast, Then build hatchery there

actually works very good, nice find!

It might enable some blocking like live2win says.

Also in some zvz's, one player won because offensive sunkens killed enough larvas/eggs before they became mutas. If you got your minerals to the left of hatcheries, this would totally have negated that.

Very nice trick, crazy to see that new things are still being discovered after such a long time.

Kinda off topic but I once played a game where one of my hatcheries consistently had 4 larvae instead of the usual 3 ^^

I tried some placements on some maps, and on some maps blocking is easy.

Here's one on katrina

works really well, hydras and lings goes through when egg is not blocking. Also, no larvae goes up there unless you force it there. So no unintentional blocks.
