Did you stimp? With that many medivacs you can probably afford to stimp and it increases your damage output a lot. Also by the time he has ultras you can probably be to at least 2-1 or 2-2. Maybe with that and slightly better unit positioning you'd fair better although we didn't see the game and see how far ahead/behind he is economically leading up to this.

This isn't SC1. Stop trying to play it like it is.

1. Tanks do less damage in SC2
2. Ultras have more HP
3. You don't have medics to make it harder for ultras to get to your marines
4. You have stimmable infantry with + bonus to armor damage, yet you are using none.
5. You have thors, yet are using none.

result = gg.

1/5

don't be a dick. i never claimed any imbalance if i thought it was imbalanced i would've posted it in the sc2 section and wrote a rage post about it.

Fighting 13 Ultras on open ground....not going to be a pretty picture any way you slice, and 1/1 @ 23 minutes into the game? You should have 3-2 or 3-3 by then!

yeah was a bit late on the upgrades but i think he had only 1-1 as well + the ultra armor and i was ahead on bases (very recently) so i thought it was ok to slack a little. guess not!

Doesn't Ultras have splash attack in SC2? Perhaps not having all rines in such a big clump would be better? :o

yep, i decided to go back to my base during this encounter and when i came back a majority of my army was dead. probably didnt help that my tanks were firing at frontline ultras and probably one hit ko'ing a bunch of my marines either. :D

I think this gets every terran who's use to the ultras from SC1.
No I'm never serious.

This.

Ultras raped unstimmed marines that are behind on upgrades in SC1 also. It's just that you also had tanks/irradiate to clean up the mess. Tanks are different (not necessarily worse overall, but certainly worse against ultras), and Raven Hunter Seekers don't do nearly as much damage as Irradiate.

Mh just looking at the first pic I thought this post was gonna be about "look at this amazing amount of ultras annihilate everything"
and I was right, just didnt know that the OP didnt expect that to happen ^^

Sadist your post is still somewhat annoying though tbh, the first sentence at least
