converts

Switches sides religiously

Converts functions as both verb and noun around the idea of change or transformation.

To convert is to change something from one form, function, or belief to another: They converted the garage into a studio, She converted to Islam.

In sports, to convert is to score after an opportunity: He converted the penalty kick.

A convert is someone who has adopted a new religion, belief, or cause—often with the zeal associated with fresh conviction: a recent convert to veganism.
