So frustrating...I don't get why some zerg turn their army into 99% BL or ultra when they get the tech.
Much better to get a few to supplement a meaty army. Especially with ultra, they should tank while ling/baneling do the damage.


Because they're stupid.
I'm sorry but that's totaly the reason for it.
BLs work better for that because they generate infinite amount of free lings.

But pro zerg player just DONT understand that only Ultra is bad bad bad.

ummm....no
because it takes a long time to get ultras and broodlords at the same time. It is much better off forcing an over respond from terran (too much viking/marauders) then transition to the other path.
OR get both once the army traded fairly evenly and have time to get both ultras and broodlords

Not that impressive tbh, i've seen DH getting 70-80k viewers. Maybe when the finals are on it gets better.


Anyone knows how many MLG has?


Most likely somewhere in between 50 or 100 million. Bet some Sundance will tweet about it later.

A lot of swedes are watching through SVTPlay and not on Twitch, I don't think we are 20k people though :p


Oh good point, would love to see viewer numbers through that.

ret lost on purpose to polt

lol tt1 get out of this thread


I think he was referring to using ultralisks, and in TT1's own way, stated that he thinks ret is better than the score from that series

I think this would be really silly as there is still a chance he could have made the final still, but it would be good tihnking to mindgame considering that large tourneys might be coming up and he didn't want to give away his zvt style just for polt

Happy that Polt didn't play his standard TvZ and got the upgrades waaaay faster than he used to. Played really well.

Hopefully he can take down the tournament so he can get into Spring Arena 2.


He changed his 6 hellion into initial marine pressure + hellions with fast third into the style you just saw. I've followed him quiet a bit now and he worked around his build and has double ebay earlier, a slower 3rd and less units, but a stronger force and build overall.


Somehow, I feel the new build he use can be abused with a strong timing before his production kick in.
The hellions / banshee, or hellions / 2 medivac marines later than usual are here to keep Zerg from attacking, but still.

Because they like him.

A very difficult concept, i know.

It's still kind of weird to cheer just because he said something.

I'm not talking about making a BL / Ultra army.

But going only ultra is bad. Ultra ling infestor, or Ultra ling bane are what you should be aimed at.
Having 12 Ultra and nothing else is BAD.
