Really awful tank control by ThorZain. He lost like... 8 tanks for no reason whatsoever to the mutas.

Thorzain not able to capitalize on the early game lead (almost failed to do so in game 2 as well.) If DRG just plays standard this won't even be close.

He had no early game lead, DRG was ahead in supply after the harass.

Why? There is no excuse not scanning the zerg base when you know he has hive tech when you have three OCs.

I remember in GSTL against a random MVP player in GuineaPig, he too used ultras against Thorzain, and it took Thorzain a long ass time to beat him.

yeah, I don't play competitively but it's internet warriors who love saying that ultras are useless in the first place


You see ultras work one time against a terran throwing units away all game and they are suddenly good units?

Thors and turrets. Thors and turrets. MVP vs July on metalopolis is good game to study to understand how to stifle a aggressive zerg. Turrets to protect siege tanks, turrets to protect thors. Losing a tank is so costly compared to building a turret.

Marines and marauders, mostly marauders if they have all the armor upgrades for the ultras. Ultras are very good in a situation like that were there are a decent amount of tanks/thors but they absolutely melt against a bio ball its silly.

Are you sure? With the recent influx of infestors I think that ultras can melt bioballs pretty easily.

Does anyone else feel like Thorzain has reached the point where he simply needs to get faster? He has such a profound understanding of unit composition and his engagements are solid enough, but it just feels like DRG is outpacing him on everything.

only reason ultralisks worked so well is because Thorzain was blind-building an army composition that counters broodlords. He had no Marauders, basically no Ghosts. And went for marines, Vikings and Thors.

I don't think so

Zergs need to stop qq and start using em


How about you stop qq about zergs and realize it was becuase thorzain anticipated broodlords and thus had started viking production which crippled him from the production he needed to stop the ultras. Did you see how long thorzain had where he could have pushed in before the ultras hatched and could have just ended it?
