Well actually Ultras are meant to counter Mech units, as per there bonus vs armored.. so yeah, against marauders and a good ling flank/fungal they are pure rape.
But against marines that AREN'T fungaled, with medivacs, I don't find it very imba or anything that ultras suck. I mean, 1 ultra will own 4-5 marines, but when you get up into 15-20 rine territory, why shouldn't they beat 2-3 ultras? If there was a ling flank, it wouldve worked even better.
All that glitters is not gold, all that wander are not lost, the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by frost.

They should just stop giving free seeds to foreigners because they're foreigners.


I think free Code A seeds are ok, but not directly into Code S.


I guess Code A seeds are fine, but there is no real reason except wanting foreigners to buy the product to give foreigners free seeds to Code S. If the foreigners had proved that by getting these free seeds in past tournaments that they could hang, it would be one thing, but we've only had three foreigners ever make it to the quarterfinals of Code S, and two of those were at the very beginning of 2011.

If GOM gave out free seeds to female gamers there would be no end to the whining on these forums.

^^; ultralisk is hard unit to use, its for sure not a unit that wins the battle alone and i can see where zerg whine is coming from. my personal opinion is that they are good enough and hots will break them hard


it's not just ultra. the underlying problem is that ranged > melee. throw medivacs in that, and those marines just don't die.

Zerg is all about fast melee units, bl's are just a blasphemy to zerg design. Just deal with it and be creative (flanks anyone ?)


So a Giant flying beast launching fast melee units is blasphemy ? Weird idea. BLs are just a carrier for zergling who have a different name, they're way more Zergy than Guardian for example.

I think one of the problems is that zergs make to many ultras. There is no reason to have more than 4-5. Another thing that some ppl already have stated, and which i agree with, is that you must have a huge zergling swarm. Flanking is crucial and i feel it is being neglected many times in zvt.

yes, the great naniwa would have brought his bonjwa-esque GSL record with him and crushed those noobs...

Sen put up a great fight here. No shame.

come on tasteless. Boxer v Sen was not a 'great series.' some clumsy stuff from both players, with the clumsier player losing.

You know 3 Colossi without support probably lose to 10 Marauders, right?

marauders /= marines

Oh really? Congratulations, I see you perfectly understood my point.
Your point was ridiculously flawed, though. I could see it, but so many holes.

And I do think some people do not understand that some of us are not relating directly to SEn's games (he played awfully, truly) but to the actual overall use of the Ultralisk. Really hate when they generalise.

Right, and Naniwa's GSL performances have really shown that he is...


Getting knocked out of Code A by a now Code S zerg isn't too bad I guess.. And you're basing your thoughts on Naniwa of what.. 6 months ago? Not the Naniwa 'now' that has proven outside of GSL that his Code S material.


You are code S material only if you are in Code S or close to geting there .

May i ask in what situation you would use them ? Considering there cost i find it hard to say they are worth it in any situation unless your so far ahead it's no matter what you make really.


Do you really think bls works when you're not far ahead when facing a worthy opponent ?
Btw what we saw when sen went ultra first was just him hanging around with them and not trying to do sth out of it, it's not really telling of how good/bad they are...


No i do not believe ultra's really work vs Terran, but we all know those situations where you get ahead so far, it's fine to waste them as long as they kill atleast something. And they are more used as fun and turtle clean up.

And i do not say they are bad, i just see no use in them vs Terran considering they get countered by any bio, and can never really be cost effective against it.

obviously you missed all those debates about unit clumping. in SC2, ranged > melee, period. that's why terran race looks (is) so imba, because most terran units are ranged including marines which is their basic unit.

Make hydras!


the only tactic that is worse than making ultras is making hydras.
