    It's called the Corrupter, the Zerg's Air-to-Air fighter. When it kills something, instead of the unit dying, it's corrupted. The corrupted unit, from what we know, is immobile but can attack any air units in any direction. It isn't like Mind Control or anything, it just takes over the unit instead of destroying it.

    There's a video of the Corrupter corrupting enemy units in one of the Zerg videos.

    Yes! From what I've seen the corrupted unit, once corrupted, shoots glaives/shurikens at the enemy units.

    It also looks cool. I love the tentacles at the back!

    It doesn't turn into a Mutalisk, an Infestation grows around the corrupted unit, corrupting it, and then that attacks nearby Air units.

    The question of this topic has been answered. This topic should be locked and any future discussions about the Corruptor should be held in the official Corruptor thread.
