What Instructors Say
The provided transcripts do not contain relevant instructional material for 'Stack Attack Defence' as a martial arts technique. Transcript 1 (PhillyBeatzGames) discusses video game mechanics from Monster Hunter Wilds, covering buff stacking systems unrelated to combat technique instruction. Transcript 2 (Danny Fung) addresses jiu-jitsu guard passing fundamentals, specifically double-underhook stacking passes from closed guard position, but does not address defensive responses to stack attacks. While Fung's material covers postural positioning, weight distribution, and frame maintenance during guard passing sequences, it does not constitute instruction on defending against a 'stack attack'—a specific positional assault where an opponent stacks weight on a defender's torso while controlling the guard. No instructors in these transcripts provide coherent synthesis on stack attack defence mechanics, positioning, or escape methodology. The material is insufficient to generate an accurate encyclopedia entry on this escape-and-reversal technique.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prevent my opponent from reclosing their guard when I'm stacking?
Danny Fung recommends sitting low in a 'boogie board position' rather than standing up immediately, which makes it difficult for your opponent to re-close the guard and changes the distance dynamic in your favor.
What should I do with my head and posture when performing a stack pass?
Keep your head high and look over the fence—use your eyes to see but don't bring your chin down. Always posture away from your opponent's hips rather than bending forward into them.
Where should my elbows be positioned during a stack pass?
Keep your elbows on the outside, never bringing them inside. Danny Fung emphasizes this positioning is crucial for maintaining control and executing the pass correctly.
