Umm, it depends how many roaches they have. If they only have 3 roaches, you could probably just run a bunch of zerglings up and break it normally, but if they have more than that, you will take a lot of damage trying to get by so I am not sure if it is worth it =/.

wow just tested it myself and watched the replay this needs to be fixed asap
Not sure if it's practical because by the time you have that many lings the P is bound to have more then just a few zealots...

Earlier in beta they supposedly patched this issue though. If it still exists today then sadface

Ling tight wall with zealot just needs proper placement, going to assume OP's zealot was slightly off/oriented incorrectly.
User was warned for this post

I guess it only works if the zealot is by the ledge, but not if you do a typical wall in with core and gate on either sides of the zealot? I thought people might raise that point, so the second part of the replay has me doing it with a zealot between a gateway and a cybercore. You're right lol. Lame.

I tried it with multiple zealots just now. You can still do it, but it is much harder.

Does TL really tolerate stupid posts like this?

It works!
Nice little trick I want to add: If you rotate your Camera with "Del" you can click better on the sweet spot!
even better then the Space Collossi!

Oh man, this is just stupid. I hope this is fixed.

Watch the replay or test it before you assume anything.

Time to go Blink Stalker every game until this is fixed.
|
why people share their secrets is beyond me. this'll be fixed probably
|
Yeah, like a few people before be here have said, this has been doable since beta. If I recall correctly, an early beta patch reduced the severity of it; as I remember this trick used to be even easier to execute. Or maybe I'm just making things up.
|
Move this to strategy so no one reads it.
|
I was messing around with things like this a while back and you can actually push zealots on hold position out of the way if you bring some drones and repeatedly alternate between mining (i.e. going through the zealot) and hold position.
|
I've done this before with a huge mass of zerglings but I couldn't figure out how I did it. I'll try this..
|
Just tested it in a custom with a friend ...
it works
|
O_O
why did you post this... o o''', you know, now a LOT of people is now going to start abusing it? :o
(Note: I'm more of a zerg player than the other races, though I sometimes play off-race)
