Please stop the tournament comparison discussion. Especially regarding players their runs (Stephano seems to be the current topic). Stay on topic and stick to the games. Consequences will be met out to further derailment. In addition leave the usual out of this topic: -Balance complaints -Map complaints -Stream complaints -Caster/player bashing -Off topic discussions Logically continue this list with things that are obviously frowned upon. Enjoy the free and wonderful event with loads of games and coverage! | ||

Players seem to be forgetting the repair mechanic when being attacked by only a reatively low number of attacking units and losing thors/turrets for no reason. I'm not talking about pulling scv's long distances to join the army as medics either, for example Thorzain lost a lone thor to muta when it was guarding the mineral line with plenty of scv's available to repair it, and similarly when his third was being overrun and his army being hammered, he ran his scv's right past his army rather than using them to actually bolster it via repair | ||

Ultras are only really bad against marauders and like 15 ghosts. because ultras are not comeback units but tank units, they are made to tank dmg not exatctly to deal demage quite opposite to broodlords and people mix up their role | ||

I wonder what math did he do, seriously, such troll is funny. 10 Ghost kill 5 ultra in an instant - an instant. That's a hard counter. | ||

You know, the muta attack bounces twice. | ||

That's a hard counter. and 10 mutas kill 5 marines in an instant; your logic is flawless, your understanding of the game groundbreaking; please tell me more about how the game works | ||

With 17.4 dps and their splash damage it hits pretty hard. Really its the combination of staying alive while dealing adequate dmg is what makes them so good. Against thors i would normally use broodlords but with the creep spread Ret has.. Ultra's are much much faster to get around. Ret likes to stay mobile  | ||

Well, to be fair, TLO has some builds I would consider awful, but they're more stylistic and builds only he uses. Basically no one is using these builds except a few people for good reason. | ||
