I think in a real ladder scenario, it has it's niche moments, and when it's possible it could be pretty effective. its not viable 99% of the time though. dont you think someone is going to think something is up when 5 overseers are flying around his base? Or when 5 units are running at his choke on the minimap (plus the cnangelings would die much faster this way) ? Even assuming he didnt, and your changeling wall kept him in his base for an extra 20 seconds, you just spent a huge amount of gas on overseers, so your going to have a crappy army, so after that 20 seconds of loltime, if he rolls out you are dead. if you kill his nat with this he will attack right away and you die. a 1 changeling block is worthwhile sometimes, but mass overseers is just something to do against bad players. | ||

this will also buy extra time to snipe the tech building that hard counters your unit mix. and ye voted dimaga cause he is always up for trying crazy shit, but hoping for IdrA in the gsl or something and shock everyone like he did with the whole magic box trick. | ||

Never ever seen it again though, would love to see that as a major game element since Overseer spells are hardcore underused imo! EDIT: to clarify: this was in a bigger battle where he used his anyway free-changelots to distract my actual force | ||

Might be good if you can catch your opponent off-guard! | ||
