Your code with the matrix is not correct because your nodes are on same row, they are separated by & and there is only one \ in your matrix.



If you want to use a matrix, I propose following code which loads matrix library and uses a matrix of nodes to simplify syntax.



But I think second solution is better, just use above=0pt of ... and you'll get two nodes one above the other.



documentclass[tikz, margin=1pt]standalone
usetikzlibrarypositioning, matrix
tikzsetball/.style=draw, circle, minimum size=.1cm

begindocument
begintikzpicture

matrix[matrix of nodes, nodes=draw, ball, row sep=0pt]
b2\
b1\
;

endtikzpicture

begintikzpicture
node[ball] (b1) b1;
node[ball, above=0pt of b1] (b2) b2;
endtikzpicture
enddocument
