They're less popular, but evidently still good. Super has been going for Stalkers in all his recent PvZs too.

... But ultralisks aren't dominating everything.

They're dominating games in which the zerg plays properly, the terran makes mistakes, the terran doesn't take proper fights, and the terran is behind to begin with.


They are dominating late game. And yes the whole "just needs to be able to survive until xx comes out --> Auto win" is also dumb. We saw that during Broodlord/Infestor.

So if we assume terran is favored in the mid game and Zerg in the late, that's an atrocious way of balancing the matchup and should be adressed.

Part of the reason was that you had a ton of patch-zergs in early HOTS being in leagues that they didn't actually deserve. Often time it was a top 5-top10 teran beating a top 30 zerg.

Generally, after Overseer buff, the matchup was pretty balanced.

The problem was that in 90% of the games where terran got their 4th base up, 4m just mowed down zerg. Overseer buff was very good, but I still remember innovation vs soulkey etc just making macro tvz look stupid.

just took a while for most zergs to learn how to micro vs mines

I too think that ultras are as strong as broodlord infestor was.

I'm pissed off by protoss who have an army like this and run around without an obs. That creep outside Rogue's natural gave him all the time he needed to get his defensive army back in position. You've got map control, why give zerg the free vision ;(

The problem was that in 90% of the games where terran got their 4th base up, 4m just mowed down zerg. Overseer buff was very good, but I still remember innovation vs soulkey etc just making macro tvz look stupid.

because they attacked. It later on turned out that against 4M based play you just defend and wait for the Terran to run out of money on 3-4 bases while you counterattack and make it impossible for him to defend a 5th. Basically what curious did here last game.

It wasn't because they attacked, it was because they were able to defend the first push without losing too much to stop the push. Innovation vs Drg on all 3 games featured drg pushing and winning.


Yeah, because they overmade units early and didn't rush out their 4th bases. They still played WoL economy with ~60 workers and aggressively trying to take down hellions with zerglings and staying on 3 bases. Soulkey would usually try to attack INnoVation with 3 bases in macro games (e.g. in their proleague games) and got wrecked. Life was trying to beat INnoVations hellions on the map. Both Life and Roro tried to play defensive into Broodlords and got wrecked by getting up 4-5 bases uncontested while not having an economic advantage.

DRG didn't really attack, he just counterattacked. And he lost the one game of the series in which INnoVation got up his 5th base, while he won the others in which he just defended better and consequently INnoVation just allinned from 3-4 bases.
