Ultras are so bad.
I can't believe there is a tier 3 unit in the game that is that horrible, especially considering what all you have to do to get to that point of making ultras as Zerg.
But I feel for the Zerg, I've lost plenty of games that way where you are so far ahead and just can't finish off the toss and if he is able to get the 3rd up and then the 4th you missed the window to win. It's just so hard to do enough damage with your 200/200 army vs. his 200/200 army to then remax and win the game.

L-O-L He outplayed Revival in the late-game sooo badly. I dont see why shouldnt he won. Because the Z spent a shitload of resources on Ultras which were absolutely USELESS. If they spent those resources on Roaches/Hydras/Mutas/Lings/Broodlords, just anything besides Ultras he would've probably won.
No, not with all those storms out. Hydras melt to storms extremely fast, and roaches get owned by archons and immortals pretty hard. Not to mention all the blink stalkers. Brood lords maybe, but mutas get owned by storm hard too, as do lings.
Revival's problem was throwing tons and tons of resources away in the mid game when he lost all those roaches and zerglings repeatedly, and then not having enough income later to really pump to match HuK's late game army.
HuK showed that it's not really a question of how many bases you have, but more a question of how well you use the resources you have. You can't just throw resources away all game long unless you're sure to win at that point.

Maybe a tweak to the army lineups but... ...you're saying this after he won a game off Zealot/Immortal/Stalker?
But...HuK fighting!

the zerg just played far too passive...he sat on his bases for far too long without teching up to T3...he also didnt even try to incorporate nydus or drops with his army and i really think that is what cost him. even before the ultralisks once huk got the 3rd and then the 4th his army just seemed unstoppable until the broodlords came out. TSL revival lost that match, huk capitalized well.

Dude had no stalkers, if he build any air units he would have won.

1. huk baits fungals with his zealots and immortals, which also happen to be in position to engage roaches and lings 2. huk blinks stalkers under broodlords 3. huk feedbacks all but 1 infestor 4. huk psi storms on the roach/lings
fucking unreal. UNREAL.
Yeah Revival just gave up after that.

The thing with the hydras is tha they're very very weak vs either storm or colossi... making them not really viable as they die too quick, same goes for zerglings, only real units you can use vs protoss in late game are roaches, ultras and broodlords, but all 3 units are hard countered by, immortals, zealots and stalkers with blink.

All zerg needed to do was go broodlord roach, since he knew there were no collosus.

But then again, if you watched Huk vs Nestea, the same thing happens, Huk will play from way behind against zerg and come back to win with some very efficient templar and immortal usage, truly amazing to see. But if think if Revival had gone up to hive and broodlord tech right as he was on 5 base and maxed, I think he would have won, because it would have come around the time Huk was getting his third up... But instead he waited with a 2k/3k bank and it took him another 3-4 minutes to tech to broodlords. That's protoss strenght at the moment. Turtle and come out with late game tech units, thus destroying the zerg who is sloppy to tech and/or who overmade certain units.

Question from Turdbase. HAHA!

"HuK look at the camera" LMFAO!!!

Before this turns into another Zerg underpowered thread I just wanted to thank everyone for the live reports. Normally when I sit here spamming refresh you can't get a feel for the game but nearly every single post was a relevent live report. Such an intense game.

HAHAHAHA THE INTERVIEW IS AWESOME

It's not unbelievable if your opponent doesn't know how to play the late-game.
