I have some friends that are able to ghost there zerglings and hydralisks.
I've personally never been able to do it myself but this replay proves that you can ghost burrowable units

Yes, this glitch has been known for a while. If you cloak a drone and build something other than a hatchery/creep colony, then the building you make will be cloaked too,

That glitch has been for a while where you can stack them although they aren't really good at it tongue.gif. Zerglings burrow too fast so they need to be facing up left in order to stack them. It works for all burrowable units.

No, watch the replay. That glitch is newer than the arbitor cloaking thing. You stack the units like in this screen shot. They are not cloaked.

As he said... Burrow one unit, Ctrl+*any number* it, select other burrowable units, rapidly press U--Ctrl+*same number*--*same number*--U. It relys on being able to give the units too many commands to do, and confusing which units...

If you do it with lurkers, burrow beside an enemy, it will appeared half burrowed, as in Kaboomhahahein's avatar.

This glitch has been known for a whileeeeeee.

We've simply called it the "Burrow-Stack glitch".

I discovered it. [/brag]

Using the selection glitch, the burrow-stack glitch is accomplushed by getting Zerg units to unburrow before they are fully burrowed, allowing them to move around without the unit boundry flags enabled.

A brief tutorial on how to do it is located here:

Half burrowed units:
a. have no shadow
b. can move on top of other half burrowed units
c. are pretty awesome at choke points
d. suck if they decide to use lurkers, siege tanks or reavers

Half-burrowed lurkers usually appear if they aquire targets during burrowing.

Ahaha. Well, Kaboo and I beat the original lava run so many times before. We just kept editing it until it all about just killing the larva and the extra units we spawned. I don't know why but it is pretty fun.

Not true. I've burrowed Zerglings plenty of times without doing anything special. It's just that having them face the proper direction helps.
