I tried to see if it was possible to have him fight 1000 but my game crashed

Meats back on the menu boys - that orc in lotr

Ultralisk still suck

[@fortheregm1249]

Good you said that, because I only came here to ask for 1000.

[@stonium69]

If not for the minimum damage cap of 0.5 each ling would be doing literally 0 damage.

[@eldesconocido669]

Sería como en el Starcraft 1, dónde justamente el daño se calculaba así (hay una misión donde puedes usar a Raynor con 6 de armadura y los marines normales no le hacen daño).

[@AXharoth]

wow

the lings could be 3-3 too they wouldnt all be hitting at the same time, unlike marines.

[@Keln02]

When missing one armour upgrade means you are taking twice the damage

[@Catchdown]

I think it doesn't matter if lings are 0/0 or 2/2. They should still only do 0.5 dmg and get oneshot. Ultras have 7 armor at max upgrades, 2/2 lings do 7 dmg. now 3/3 and/or cracklings would make a big diff, with 3/3 giving lings 8 dmg(1 dmg vs ultra, double the damage!) and faster attack speed.

[@xx_gamer_xx8315]

​@@Catchdown Each additional armor over the attack damage halves the damage taken

[@hanneswiggenhorn2023]

​@@xx_gamer_xx8315just the first time I think. Like, 0.5 is the hard lower limit, you can't do less damage than that, so 7 armor vs 7 attack deals 0.5 damage, but so does 7 armor vs 4 attack

[@hanneswiggenhorn2023]

​@@Catchdown3/3 ultras deal 44 damage to the main target, but "only" 33% of it as splash (so around 14.5 splash damage, I'm not sure how it is rounded). That means the ultras need 3 hits to kill a Zergling with splash, but Zerglings with 3 armor would need 4 hits, so 3/3 zerglings would perform way better in terms of ho too!

Upgrades definitely matter

[@bdizzle7072]

I feel like he deserves to be an omegalisk after all that

[@davenclawthehobbit2842]

If killing 500 zerglings was the requirement for omegalisk, Omegalisk would be the base level for every Protoss unit

Visceral footage of why you stay on top of upgrades in game

This reminds me of an archon fighting an ultralisk. The archon lost.

Meanwhile 1 ghost takes out the ultra, All the shields of an entire Protoss army and then snipes some lurkers for good measure :)

[@JuckiCZ]

As a SC 1 player, I am surprised that Ultralisk has splash dmg! I would love to see the same match in SC 1 :-D.

todays lesson is the diminishing returns when your units have an attack space limit

canon sized ultralisk

Wonder if they would win if the zerglings had the old school stack glitch or if the cleave would just kill them faster. Was a sad day when they patched that good old brood war.

[@redangel6217]

Why i have a feeling i've seen this exact scenario already, isn't this like a few years old video? not this specific vid, just the fight itself

[@FlyingDominion]

Now show the same thing but with 54 fewer zerglings that are fully upgraded. Fully upgrading zerglings costs 1350 minerals (plus gas), which is the cost of 54 lings.

[@hanneswiggenhorn2023]

Honestly I think they actually would stand a chance because they would do double the attack damage+ faster attack and could tank one more splash with their armor

[@FlyingDominion]

@@hanneswiggenhorn2023 yeah, they'd absolutely shred the ultralisk. I just want to know how many would be left.

that ultralisk is our free will, and the lings are the church! remember when you care for yourself and the community you live in you upgrade. no mass of lies and reproach through genocide and silencing truth can make you not be human. stay true, stay truthful, and remember anyone trying to convince you of somehting, is not telling you the whole truth

[@kevinchang5082]

Basically zerglings cant kill an ultra

[@kylethekidable]

They can, with upgrades. Upgrades are huge in this matchup. Fully leveled ultra? Basic lings do bottom DMG cap, fully upgraded lings vs maxed ultra? They do 1 per hit so double DMG. Add adrenal glands to that and they can actually chip away at 1 pretty quick, but you still need enough to maintain surround until at least 33% health or so

[@user-te8pk7hr3t]

Man this Ulrali is so insane srsly it needs nerf

[@TRYCLOPS1]

Is this true? Lings even with the crack upgrade? This can’t be true… that’s insane. But for real is this accurate? I am clueless 🤷‍♂️

[@kylethekidable]

No, those were non upgraded lings vs a maxed ultra. So each ling was doing .5 DMG per hit. Give them max upgrades and adrenal glands for faster attack speed and that amount would melt through a single ultra

[@TRYCLOPS1]

@@kylethekidable oh makes more sense now. Because in BW cracklings were the ultimate weapon lol

This is how threatening Ultralisks should be against ALL units, not the whimpy paper balloon they are currently and have been for over a decade...

[@kylethekidable]

Because there are too many counters. The other races have too much anti armor for ultras to mean much. At this point, rather than trying to balance fix ultras they'd be better off taking away attacks altogether, making them giant walkers like aberrations and using them as walking shields to cover your ground units. Makes a baneling assault on a turtled up terran with a bunch of tanks suddenly viable if a few of these guys are maxed out and shielding everything beneath them from hits

I know people are joking this is gonna hurt Toyota but people who know nothing about cars don't understand fisker was a car company before. They failed horribly and were bound to fail again. I've seen them on the road but most car companies aren't doing that good besides Honda, Toyota, BMW, and Tesla. Thats it and Tesla has been going slightly down because of slowing demand. Everyone has said this car is horrible don't buy it, and only made so they can say they have it and this is the only suv Toyota can't sell. They have amazing lease daals with this but eith thst range, i mean if you only need this to go around town and your lease is like 200 bucks a month, its s great deal, but if not get s Hyundai inoniq or if you can afford luxury and don't want a Tesla, people really sleep on the lyriq, it's a fantastic car and i see those on the road often because they did a good job even though the reviews are mixed. That car has an audience and it hits itd numbers well. GM reported low car sells for most of there cars besides the lyriq.
