what looks more dumb? 20 scvs and a PF owning a whole zerg army or ultralisks cleaving scvs that repair it? hmmm


How is it a fix for the mass repair? It takes one extreme and goes to the other. Previously you could not loose the PF with enough scv's repairing. Now you actually CAN'T repair it at all.

A fix would had been something in between. Who in their right mind will sacrifice 25 scv's that will die to splash in a few seconds? You simply won't repair PF's ever now against ultras. You will have to run and sack the expo instantly.
War does not determine who is right - only who is left.

Double Ultralisk drop all the way!
Man all races have got to be fast at pullin away workers late game know. Two Ultralisk will kill all workers in 4-5 hits.

That's a pretty big splash radius. But it's good that they can take down PF's. No more turtling!

Yea seriously. I'm all for ultras doing more damage to buildings but to decimate every unit near a building w/o touching them, in addition to also destroying the building, is just way too broken.

Yah looks like a bug, ultras have less range from normally attacking then from attacking a building.

That, and if the Terran had any kind of army there the PF would've won. A lot of Ultralisks were killed, and the alive ones were all pretty weak anyways.

That and Ultralisks are Tier 3 units.

I knew that the splash would buff Ultras vs buildings, but holy shit lol.

Edit: OMG ZERGLING ICON I HAS!



Ultra > anything on the ground.

Literally. This is a good thing for Zerg.

...I don't have the zergling icon...

Not true, Marauders are really good vs Ultras.

How about your siege tanks that hit INSTANTANEOUSLY?

There are a LOT of things in this game that does not make sense, like how marauders can outrun flying units.

It makes as much sense as SCV's being able to repair a PF endlessly while a whole armies are destroyed by it? No.

How can a battlecruiser come from a starport which only has an exit the size of a viking?

That cannot be right.

If that is, those ultralisks have farrrrr too much splash.

Look at the SCVs on the opposite side of the PF get cut to ribbons.

I hope it doesn't work like that against everything else in the game.

Sorry that PFs wont make you invincible for the entirety of the game anymore. If you lose your army and are unable to defend a PF, you SHOULD LOSE YOUR EXPO. Not be able to repair it and rape the surviving zerg army.

You are absolutely right, if you have NO ARMY, and zerg has ULTRAS, you better run your scvs away and expect to lose that expo. PF should be used in conjunction with an army for defense, not be a perfect defense in itself.

Welcome to the world of every other race that when they dont have a defending army they lose their base. The way it should be for every race. There is absolutely no way anyone could claim that this is imbalanced, looks silly yes, but imbalanced? No fucking way.

I play random duder

and tank hitting instantaneously? You're really going to compare tank shells moving fast to scvs exploding out of fear in the 'makes sense' category?
