how do u stack wraith and micro them? do you do it like muta? instead of using ovie would u use scv?

a good example of this would be the recent msl match lomo vs Kwanro

AFAIK, you can use it with any unit.

Well, larva is one of the most used examples with mutas because it can't move. A sieged tank defending your mineral line would be a good choice.

Pros to tend to use ovies beause they utilize all their larva and the ovies move slow enough that they probably won't make it to the opponents based to get sniped.

unless you have a trapped unit somewhere (a bad scv, or more likely a marine surrounded by other marines) you have to rely on clicking on minerals to stack

Can't you use a flying rax or e-bay? They move really slow .

Do the stacked wraiths take damage like the stacked mutas ?

A good idea, but unfortunately I don't think you're going to have a siege tank with siege mode out that early (that is, in your wraith attack timing).

Better to just trap an SCV somewhere if you really want to stack the wraiths so badly. afaik though, wraiths can be microed pretty gosu without stacking them with magic boxes.

wraiths are easier to stack than mutas from what i've seen. just group them on a mineral or building or whatever, they dont seem to unstack as easily as mutas do.
what the fuck do you have to say for yourself now you protoss jackass can you retaliate in any way

Trap an scv using supply depots or something and it will work using that scv.

a marine works as well and doesnt require you to sacrifice an scv.

Looking at the VOD it looks like hold position works. Not sure about patrol though.

If you have a tight wall-in you shouldn't need to trap a unit, just use an scv in your base, or marine if you're not under ling threat. Edit you should also be able to build something with that scv and still stack it while it's building, saving some off-mine time
