Upon being converted, you will be the same type as the player who infected you. If you are converted, or become infected by other means, depending on how you die you will become one of the following infected types:

Trivia

 * There is a small chance of having a blushing squiggle face while infected instead of the normal one upon infection. This has an approximately 1 in 1000 chance of occurring.
 * It is possible to create a "hybrid" infected, this is only a glitch that works with any infected and Traffic Cone. Achieving this requires the right timing and location of which infected you'll want to "fuse" with.
