Ultralisks against marines? Zerg looks like shit.
Ultralisks against marauders? Zerg looks like even more shit.
Banelings against marines? Trading suicide gas bombs against mineral only units.

The melee units really look terrible against mass marine/marauder with tank support.
Having melee units that run slower than ranged units really makes no sense from a game design point of view, UNLESS the melee units deal alot more damage or are extremely beefy.
We just saw ultralisks get slaughtered instantly, and they dont actually deal that much damage (against light anyways).
So why exactly are Ultralisks so slow? Lings atleast have the speed advantage, it makes sense that they are low hp units, but Ultralisks? Not so much, they get killed damn fast without Dark swarm... Oh wait...

Zergs should just go Broodlord/Infestor and speedling/infestor, instead of wasting time on banelings/ultras.

The ultras were really in the red though.


It's also a necessity to transition as Zerg.

I mean, you can't just stay on one tech once he's prepared for it and backed up by a good economy.

I don't know how this turtle style really will work on Crossfire, if SuperNova can stabilize he will probably win. But DRG is the kind of guy who lets you do anything.

Ever.

Well, after thinking about it, it was more like showing mix of all zerg units is the way to go. lol.


ya i think a mix of units is best, it gives the opponents headache as to what composition to counter.
Or constant switches...

Going extremes like most zergs for prolonged periods, allows opponents to really get good counters too easily.

I think we need to remove ultras from the game to save Korean pros from themselves.

I cant imagine it working because getting that 3rd is insanely hard so Supernova will probably do a 2 base timing attack.

once the zerg gets a good number of ultras the terran can build marads and just rip through the ultras like they are nothing.

But they're a very good approximation.

I mean, DRG had that won, but it took ages since he was using ultralisks, which gave supernova heaps of chances to come back


Cut this crap already please. Ultra/Infestor is freaking amazing, especially after tech switching from broodlords, when Terran has worthless flying 20 supply.


Vikings are never useless. Im very surprised of how FEW TIMES I see vikings being left over being used for overlord hunting. If you just follow the minimap you will see that most zergs, including pros, have massive overlord clouds in the edges of the map
