Hello guys,

anyone knows how to do it? I saw it in a couple of replays, f.e. Dimaga often has used it. Especially on Scrap Station, where he puts a line of tumors behind the wall in the middle - WITHOUT queens being able to walk there?
How does this work? Any sort of bug?

no just fly a muta over the area thats blacked out, and then youll be able to spawn a tumour there, as long as theres creep, which will come from a tumour on your side of the wall. you just have to have vision of where you wanna put the next tumour

If you spawn a creep tumor right beside the rocks you get vision slightly passed it and the creep created by tumors doesn't get stopped by rocks etc

Therefore make tumor beside rock --> make tumor passed rock

no bug, the tumors can replicate themselves. When they are positioned next to a cliff edge or a rock bed, they will expand beyond them, you simply need an overlord to gain vision so you can replicate your next tumor.

Lol, use an ovie or muta to get vision.

I tired this but the queen didn't spawn anything cause she was blocked by the wall?
Could you describe a bit more preciseley how to do it?

edit: ok thanks guys! You are cool :-)

You can use creep tumors to make other creep tumors when you click on them.

overlord, drop creep, spawn tumor.

even if it's not the tumor's creep, all you need is too have a creep tumor in range, creep where you want to spawn it, and vision.

Creep spreads under the rocks, grants vision and allows you to plant another one. And so on.

creep doesnt give vision, the tumor does.

you definitely need an overlord or any air unit.
