you should add Sheth to the poll. Especially considering he posted this under Tips and tricks in his "Sheth's Guide" post. Still a great idea regardless of the creator

Don't see how this wouldn't be viable endgame.

I'd say the delay on your end from getting 25 overseers might even it out.

cute, but semi useless. especially considering the amount of energy that could be used on contaminating or whatever the spell is called.

Oh damn some random guy on the internet with no credentials just PROVED that this not viable, no one better ever use this again.

i remember seeing a pvz on meta where the zerg blocked the protosses choke with one changeling and dropped in his main. it took the protoss quiet a while to realize why his units couldnt move in, which allowed the zerg to kick all of his tech structures

You get 4 changelings per overseer, take another look at your math.

I think its a good idea to just use a small amount of changelings (like 4 of a singel overseer) to block some Units at a choke.

However the difficult part is to get the changelings near your opponent in the first place, which rarely works.

But i think that can easily work if it will ever block an army for some critical seconds.

when you have enough money to afford this kind of shenanigans, you've probably won the game anyway, regardless of how you spent it,

1-2 changeling block I can see, to capitalize on moments of lost focus.

20? Lol 6 overseers - I'd take 6 extra mutas over that any day.

I don't really see this come into play in a high-level tournament or even on the Ladder, cuz any decent player will notice this and just kill the changelings, just like you almost never see a changeling living long against a skilled player anyways.

I'd say using infested terrans for this would be much more practical.

Or just fungal growthing their units on the ramp, for that matter.

Terran: "Wow that's a lot of changelings. Guess I'll send 2 marauder to his base and end the game since the retard has no units."

Am I being a total noob here, but don't changelings die instantly when you hit them? The Thors in the video could have cleared them out of the way.

6 times 4 is 24, not 20

Besides, if you are capped you can't make use of those extra theoratical mutas. Overseers don't cost any supply, they give it and work as detectors / scouters as well. Mind you, you don't need 5 or 6 overseers to do this trick, You can put 2 in a choke to delay, although 20 or more will delay the enemy army so much you'll definately kill this expansion without losing a unit, which is worth way more than " 6 mutas ".

1 overseer early game is what every terran will have and you only need 1 for this, you CAN add more in late game, not necessary, but you can to make a big barrier of changelings. I don't know if you think an overseer costs 5000 minerals and gas but 2 marauders won't touch anything.
