At this moment, he's obviously playing very well. :p I'm going to laugh if it ends up being Heart/Violet though. Just like MC losing to Ganzi 0-2 in Code A, then coming here and beating him 2-0. Momentum and/or mental fortitude makes up a big part of the game. | ||

Pretentious statements with no explanation at all that encourages stupid arguments rather than legit discussion It's about tempo, momentum, speed and mobility. Broodlords can win fights, but they can't force fights. You need to get the game into a position where you can force the right battle before the broodlords are worth it. Ultralisks are not as good at winning battles, but they can always force one. Sometimes going broodlord first gives up your momentum because you're not in a position to force that battle. Sometimes the terran is playing in a way that you can force that battle right away. It's not easy to explain, but it's something zerg players get used to and understand, and I guess you don't really pick it up by spectating, based on the sheer number of complaints about the broodlord and ultralisk decision in live report threads. Was that a bit better, mr biscuit? | ||

Pretentious statements with no explanation at all that encourages stupid arguments rather than legit discussion TB, a possible reason behind the increased ultralisks is that Zerg makes more queen now, and with ultralisks with conjuction with queens heal it could possible be a good combo. For whatever reason it doesn't seem to work/ the players don't seem to be able to actually do it. | ||

Also, the lack of Mutas makes upgrading air much less viable than upgrading melee (for ling/festor), so Ultras can benefit from the armour and attack upgrades easily. | ||

According to what Stephano said on stream, it's because it's very hard to defend drops against a good T with broodlords because they are so slow. That's why a lot of Z are going ultra rather than BL until they are pretty sure T can't drop them as effectively. | ||

Doesn't make sense since Broodlords DPS comes from the spawned broodlings which are upgraded from melee and carpace, same as ultralisks. | ||
