parasiting a shuttle when fighting sair/reaver could be useful because in those situations you can't have ovies everywhere or else the sairs will pick them off. Having their shuttle parasited forces them to wait/make a new one and/or you see where their attack is going to be and can intercept it.

Use it on big units like archon, BC, or even critters.

Parasite the critters! Panda Bear guy loves to be parasited.

Yes it does.

I was about to reference Garimto mind-controlling an Overlord for detection but that's a different spell completely.

Anyways, yes it does :p

Parasite is like the opposite of optical flare, though I think it's a bit more useful.

Just tested it. Parasited templar of any kind morphed with unparasited templar will form parasited archons. The same is true for 2 templar that are both parasited.

What's interesting is that you seem to lose the vision of the morphing archon until it becomes a full fledge archon.
