You could even do it, with two or so changelings during or while his army is moved out of his main in the mid/late game and he might not realise until it's too late for his reinforcements to actually get out of his base. They're more used for slowing stuff down rather than stopping them dead. Like right there, he could of killed them sure, but that would of given you like 5 or so seconds where he's killing them, to attack an expo. Interesting no? | ||

You can definately do this with much fewer, like or 3 blocking the hole a protoss makes in his wall to get units out of or to block a lowered supply depo. I might upload some more clips once I start using this more, I just discovered it like half an hour ago so I'll try use it in some high level games and find more ways. Everyone feel free to post replies here of you using Changefield! in fun and interesting ways. | ||

Edit: But yeah, it seems like something you can only use for a pimpest plays type of thing, like nukes or infested command centers in brood war. | ||

But, what could the terran do to counter this? Actually, does anyone care to explain a newbie here exactly how changelings work? | ||

I blocked one thor with 1 changeling, sitting on his supply depot (it was an accident, but still). He didnt see that for about 10 seconds. Gave me some time to set up defenses :D | ||
