Nice find, might try this out sometimes.
As previous commenters said: most people just a-move their army using the minimap, so there will mostly be a delay untill they notice their army is stuck, and even then they have to manually kill each changeling.

Thread was made when TLO was a terran. Not enough space to put all zerg players in either^^.

Can also be used to stop reinforcements from a terran army arriving by clogging his wall with a changeling or two.

Added a couple of bonus clips.

Not gonna lie, the how to stop protoss air was simply awesome!
As for changlings, pretty cool idea that as lower level zerg I'm gonna try out.

The mining trick is AWESOME! Well, totally not cost and time efficient in a normal game I suppose, but still very imaginative. Thumbs up my friend!

hilariously, this works. Did it with about 10 changelings from 4 overseers i had left over from contaminating, killed all his tech while he was killing them off.

Wouldn't any form of splash damage (Terran's siege tank, Protoss' high templar, Zerg's fungal growth) instantly kill all of them?

If you had a tank set up next to your ramp, using a storm to kill the changelings would be a win in the zergs books ( especially if you walked through it in a hurry, taking damage from it yourself ).

All you do is right click on the changelings :/ not sure why that is a "good strategy" when anyone who's ever killed a changeling before can stop it. You really think having to right click 8 times or so is really worth the contaminate energy? No pro will use any of these in a pro game. The mass air thing could have been stopped 1a with pure hydra corrupter, and why would his mothership just be chilling with full energy. And the nydus mining could actually be used, but it would be much more efficient to just nydus a drone and make a hatch. I find it hard to believe that anyone takes these "tricks" seriously :/

ROOTSLush already did this to me in EGMasters 3rd place match Game 5 of a bo5, and it got him the win. He used 2 on my ramp so that marines could ft through but not tanks, so i saw my marines reinforcing and thought everything was fine, but when i went back to check my base while i was pushing there were 3 tanks stacked on top of 2 changelings, woulda changed the game since my push lasted 4 minutes and he barely held it off

That was a nice game, Casters missed it but it definately made your push much weaker, missing those 2 tanks.

No one is going to use this stupid tactic, you were obviously playing against a noob.

only way i see this useful is maybe doing it to prevent reinforcements from leaving the base.

This would never be feasible.
Any platinum+ player is not going to let changelings "block" his ramp. ABOVE that, you'll never see a protoss use 4 zealots to block a ramp.
Neat, but useless.
