Block marines going through lowered supply depo or stalkers trying to defend from mutas, if he is too busy to look at his choke he will wonder why his forces arent coming to help defend :þ

no the enemy units would automatically attack an infested terran, they have to be specifically commanded to attack a changeling

I believe this was also covered in sheth's ZvP guide

Good to see some actual video evidence though lol.

TBH-
Contaminate is WAY cooler than mass changelings. Here's an actual strategy that can be feasibly implemented:

ZvT, Requiring only one overseer.
Produce 20 blings or so. (with lair tech for overseer you should have centrifugal hooks too)

Cast contaminate on an OC-
it CANNOT lift off.
Run blings into OC, kill base.

*Note- contaminate also prevents raxs/depots from lifting off/ lowering, so for implementing muta harass do that instead. Unlike changleings, detection won't do anything against contaminate

*Edit- I've scoured scwiki and liquipedia, and google, and actually have found NO information about if it(contaminate) can or can't actually prevent lift off.
I thought I remembered seeing it on a bnet thread list of cool tricks/tips though.
In regards to patch changes, it was corrupters who used to have the contaminate ability in beta, but then they switched it to overseers.

Do note that the natural life of the changling is longer than the contaminate ability
(150 Gs compared to 50 GS)

detection doesnt do anything to changelings.

This is beta old. I saw this tactic used legitimately with a Nydus on the korean server waaaaaay back.

Sen has already used this on his stream. He had 2 or 3 Changelings block the ramp of a Terran player's main base so the Thors could not exit as he demolished the main army, preventing reinforcements. Though he used it more as of a joke since he was winning pretty handily already.

they can lift off. maybe youre thinking about Corruption, the old version

contaminate ONLY halts production of units, and research/upgrades. and spawn larva from queen
yes, i am 100% sure

Those things die extremely fast, but I suppose it'd be good if you mass a ton of them.

For that time and money, though..

I liked the music. Also, the opponent in that game had a ton of Thors, so it looked like he would have had some difficulty killing the Changelings close to him without accidentally targeting the Thors, lol.

This better not get "fixed"; I really want to see this in action in a real game.
now run into the setting sun, and suffer, but don't mess up your hair.
