[again07daumstarlegue]

Savior of zerg

[RokushoKiRa]

try it with siege tanks

[hobbang2]

You gotta luv the face at the end.. LOL

[GaleStream]

Hold lurker does not equal spamming stop >_>

[songj7]

진짜 sick

[Drummer11121]

"oooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOO­O!" :O

[sctivcrmnfeconicu430]

마재윤 안녕..

[Xrosder]

Wow Korea is Starcraft heaven lol :D

[WaynE412]

its spam Stop button.

[sn1020]

吵死人了~臭韓狗

[x3jShiNx3]

i bet Savior was clicking S like a crazy mofo

[brainwasher9876]

@x3jShiNx3 you don't need to keep clicking s. Simply get a lurker to attack an enemy building that's in a fog of war, and it wont' attack anything near it.

[Hazedream]

i recall watching this years ago...still sexy to see....come check out some starcraft2 shit in my channel...enjoy

[AJwentyoyoyoyo]

how do not make those things attack? i thought they were auto ?

[blo0magic]

@AJwentyoyoyoyo u ally the opponent.

[Mun885]

@AJwentyoyoyoyo you group lurkers with overlord, press hold position. when u want to attack, choose lurkers and simply click stop.

[PenileFracture]

@AJwentyoyoyoyo spam hold position

[Quote3232]

ITS A TRAP!

[oDrSofto]

lol, just spam the hold position button

[pedrotrberaldo]

@oDrSofto

Actually i think you have to spam STOP, since ranged units WILL attack even if they hold their position.

[Satoshiji]

Allying your opponent (but not allying victory) is a legitimate strategy. However, the point here was that he scouted with that marine; if the Zergling hadn't retaliated, his opponent might of saw this coming

[rm04ever]

FANTASTIC !!!!!

[sinekonata]

does that mean he invented it?

[dillon4321]

awesome

[cjzamora1992]

AMAZING!

[lightsinthesky246]

rip gosu savior...

[ironfrost312]

@lightsinthesky246 Its a shame he got disqualified for loosing on purpose on some gambling sites.

[profaa927]

@lightsinthesky246 Why is he dead? :S

[chrstilen5]

Thats how you fucking do it. Ye babby suck my nuts and give me a hamberger.

[Calvin040]

so many noobs comment this vid -_-

[ModeLTU]

That was so sick.He allowed other 2 lurkers to attack to give guy false impression of safety haha.

Classic

[Wenonimus]

Just to clarify: when you select a units of different kinds they can share their commands.

For "Lurker Hold" you select Lurkers with Overlords and then Hold them. Works perfect.

Just like that you can make your Workers Patrol territory.

[Betolicious42]

Recommended Uses * Hold Overlord - standard method. * Order the burrowed Lurker to attack an enemy building in the fog of war.

Not recommended * Spamming the stop command - It's inefficient and doesn't guarantee the Lurker won't attack. * Ally your enemy - This method is banned in competitive play, similar to allied Mines.

The first two are both valid ways of accomplishing this. This is directly from Team Liquid's site.

[sorajsm]

Hey, I think you can right click an enemy building thats far away, then, when enemies are close, select ''attack'' around it.

[infestedzerg99]

huh? u mean u need to group ur lurkers with an ovi and right click on a building in the fog and lurks wont attack?

[Halfpastnoob]

He spammed stop or probaly hold.God you guys are seriously fucking idiots.

[don2x8]

probably hold???

IDIOT !!

[wasdzxc12345]

no allying or unallying u dumbasses. he used one of the many methods described below. i hope u get this. and that i dont sound like a jackass.

[jiok2003]

wrong.. read ckyisyourfuture reply below.

[fenicsisthebest]

Wow.... What a Starcraft Pro with extensive knowledge of this game... Way to go dude, L-O-fucking-L. What a champ.

IT'S CALLED STOP LURKERS YOU DUMBASS, YOU GROUP LURKER WITH AN OVERLORD AND 'STOP'

[JAFrk]

cuz thats illegal retard

[Frankiezapp]

that's not allowed in pro championships you noob

[purepwnage007]

you're not allowed to ally and unally

[IcingKSW]

lol u don't need to hit s to stop lurkers from attacking. u can make lurkers target a enemy building that is in fog and it will not attack

[JAFrk]

isnt there another way to do stop lurkers w/ an ovy? Although the method you stated above is just as affective

[sandiegosuperbowl]

ma bonjwa

[MashaBiseX]

how this? learn me plz -.-

[ckyisyourfuture]

group your lurkers with another unit and hold position until you want them to attack, then just hit a

[matsis01]

or s

[ckyisyourfuture]

Hitting S requires that you sitting there and stop your units repeatedly whereas hold with another unit simply just freezes the lurker's attack. Hitting S is great except for the fact that if you're wasting your time hitting S for a few seconds, you missed out on a good deal of macro or something else you should be doing.

[knighttwentyk]

i think he meant to hit S instead of A once your lurkers are held.

[zippo718]

No, not "or S".

Why the hell would you waste time spamming S when group hold is infinitely better?

[cornballbeast]

or tell ur lurkers to attck a building thts in the fog of war

[potatoman32323]

spam the stop button... hence stop lurkers

[ckyisyourfuture]

Hold position with another unit is far more efficient because that way you don't have to sit there hitting S until the other units get close enough to surprise. Keep the lurkers hotkeyed and Hold position with another unit, then A-click with the lurkers once you see the units move close on the minimap or whatever. Use the time you'd waste hitting S repeatedly to macro.

[andychatsab]

WOW IM GONNA TRY THAT!!!!

[hephronss]

sick move

[2MinuteSoup]

lmao just awsome..

[brainwasher9876]

i loled.

[gooddevilboy]

God dam! the U.S. needs to host these games too man...i want to see colored people go at it with each other..

[MightyFire]

coloured? as in black ppl?

[Davie557]

WELL DUH lol

[HumanStrategy]

colored people? Are you from the KKK by any chance?^^

[MaciejJerzyk]

AMAZING !!! why do pro gamers dont use that trick any more ?

[Akumasama]

It's actually illegal sometimes.

[LankyScoot]

illegal to stop lurkers...huh??

[Akumasama]

In some tournaments, being caught using the stop lurker trick is ground for disqualification.

[Jst0911]

negative. allied mines is disqualification because allying ur opponent goes against the SC premise. stop lurks is a strategy while in-game

[iammishahearmeroar]

@Jst0911 So, what you're saying is that...using mines that, logically, should be perfectly capable of holding fire granted the technology of the Starcraft universe, to hold fire SHOULD be a disqualification, while forcing a wild animal that's in a state of constant bloodlust to hold fire is a totally legitimate tactic?

[aimthailaxu]

@iammishahearmeroar yeah and alien people can control your mind and can make blue lighting. your argument is invalid.

[iammishahearmeroar]

@aimthailaxu ...How so? Okay, it's sci-fi. And? That proves my point even more.

[antsache]

@iammishahearmeroar

The problem is that it's using meta-game functions to affect in-game outcomes. It'd be like if you were able to somehow wring an advantage out of tournament situation by adjusting your graphics options at the right time. Stop/hold lurkers have been considered borderline pretty much since the technique was discovered. They're almost always allowed, but many players disagree with that decision, because they're essentially relying on a glitch to achieve the hold status.

[antsache]

@iammishahearmeroar

I think they reason they typically allowed Hold Lurkers, though, is that it was correcting something that many saw as an oversight by Blizzard. I'm not sure whether Bliz ever gave any official word on it, but Lurkers were weird because they didn't, IIRC, have a Hold function like most other units. This was likely just because they have to be burrowed to attack anyway, and Bliz didn't foresee that players would want to have them hold fire for the right moment, as well.

[Foxhound1112]

@Jst0911 It got banned when Slayers used allied mines in a game

[llVIU]

@Jst0911 stupid rule :|

[FabledIntegral]

It is never illegal is ANY tournament to use hold lurkers.

[woofantango123]

its very legal. You're completely wrong

[bigmouthstrikespain]

MJY 2009 is here!

[ArbbbbSC]

Its actually TheSTC Last i checked

[wontonsoup89]

You are correct, I was confused about the Terrans on STX.

[Nacho9001]

anyone knows who was the terran?

[locopuyo]

so much pwn

[sandiegosuperbowl]

this is why savior is great

he was patient, most gamers would have released at the first group, not seeing that there would be a better chance to get more kills.

[HumanStrategy]

ahah fuckin' hilarious seriously

[CareBear8847]

EPIC

[LarryLaffer90]

That's not mashing the S key, that's having the lurkers attack an allied unit outside of range. Mashing the S key would prevent further micromanagement from happening.

[illmatic7]

actually its called hold position lurkers. You group the lurkers with another unit and put them on hold position and the lurkers won't attack and when you want them to attack you take them off hold position.

[caesarofrome2002]

if zerg can s lurks then ter should be allowed to allied mines

[island47]

lurker plus "S" key = awesomeness

[babyshaker90210]

what the fuck
