[What to do]
Bring your overlord near the desired location and cast Infested Terran. An Overseer with full energy can drop two infested Terran.


[Tips for Pulling This Off]

Good vs. These Races / Strategies:		Bad vs. These Races / Strategies:
This is a good counter to some early air attacks, in tandem with Queen and Hydra's, and can also be used to pester enemy bases or reinforce a close battle.		This is bad if you are greatly outnumbered or the enemy has good anti-air defense and bringing in an Overseer will provide no benefit.

What to do in Success:		What to do in Failure:
Repeat the process or push with your army on the enemy. These are typically just a light utility tool.		Evacuate your Overseer as quickly as possible. Don't lose an Overseer just because you've lost a battle.
