I know I will be playing with this when I get home tonight looking for more concrete answers to these questions, but this little tactic is a giant boon to early game cheese defense in general, no question there. | ||

You are implying to stack them all then focus fire the closest zergling? | ||

Nice find. they did patch the ramp block offs... remember when it only took 2 pylons and there were no neutral supply depots? I don't think blizzard is going to patch stacking workers. Yes this works defending against lings in your mineral line. | ||

Nice tutorial! I can be done even faster though, but you need to have good mouse control. The trick is to shift click a mineral patch a few times until all drones are stacked and than quickly click the pylon. In that way all drones will attack the pylon instead of only half the workers. If you have vision of the mineral patches in your natural (which you should usually have with Zerg as your overlord should be there) it's a lot easier, as you don't even have to shift click the mineral patch. In that case clicking it once is enough to stack all drones. | ||
