StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty features the return of the three species from the original game: Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. In the Terran campaign, the original StarCraft briefing room is replaced with an interactive version of the battlecruiser Hyperion, with Jim Raynor, a bitter and hard-drinking mercenary captain, as the central character.
- StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is the sequel to Blizzard Entertainment's 1998 hit StarCraft, which has been hailed by players and critics worldwide as one of the top real-time strategy games of all time.
- Wings of Liberty is the name of the StarCraft II terran campaign and episode. It was released on July 27, 2010. It was the first StarCraft II product and was released separately from the two expansions, Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void, occurring before them chronologically.

Description[edit]
The Ultralisk is the Zerg's toughest late-game unit in StarCraft II. It can only be made once the Hive is researched and an Ultralisk Cavern is made. The Ultralisk has been upgraded since its role in Brood War; when attacking units - within a range of 1 - its attack deals splash damage within a range of 2.5 in a 180° arc towards the target, albeit at a flat 33% of normal damage. However, this improvement is compensated for by the increase in overall cost, which places it around the same level as the Thor and Colossus.

Competitive Usage[edit]
General[edit]
Ultralisks, because of their 1 range, fare very well when paired with Zerglings or, in some cases, Broodlings. The Ultralisk's 1 range allows them to attack even when Zerglings or Broodlings are in front of the Ultralisk.
With Attack-Move taking priority over the regular Move command, it is therefore recommended to control Ultralisks in a separate group than Zerglings and steer the latter 'manually' for a brief period - preferably surrounding the opponent's army - until (most of) the Ultralisks have 'plowed' through them and are in range of their targets.
Vs. Protoss[edit]
Ultralisks can be extremely powerful against Protoss, but with enough Immortals and/or Zealots, a Protoss ground army can easily counter Ultralisks. Since Protoss players currently have more difficulty with Brood Lords, most Zerg players tend to get those instead of Ultralisks. As Ultralisks are 'massive' units, they can be used to crush forcefields, weakening Protoss positioning in the late game.
Vs. Terran[edit]
Ultralisks are useful against both Terran bio balls of Marine/Marauder as well as mech armies of Tanks and Thors. In the lategame a techswitch from Broodlords to Ultralisks can be devastating for the Terran if he overproduced Vikings. When used in conjunction with the Infestor, Ultralisks and their cleave ability can decimate Bio Balls under the effect of Fungal Growth. Ultras will often serve as the vanguard for a Zerg push, breaking siege lines and bio balls with their high armor and large health pool.
It must be noted, however, that well-controlled bio armies are hugely cost effective against Ultras, so rooting the bio force in clumps with Fungal Growth is essentially necessary at the highest levels.
Vs. Zerg[edit]
Ultralisks are good in late game as the only true counter to them is Mutalisks or Broodlords. Though Roaches can kite Ultralisks, Fungal Growth allows ultras to annihilate them and they themselves cannot be rooted by Fungal Growth. Hydralisks are effective versus Ultralisks without Chitinous Plating assuming no upgrades (or upgrades that cancel each other out). However, with Chitinous Plating, Ultralisks can beat Hydralisks. Yet again though, as numbers get larger, Hydralisks' effectiveness increases; this is because several layers of ranged units can attack, compared to one layer for melee units. Ultralisks' splash effect helps somewhat to counter-act this issue, but not enough to outweigh the aforementioned problems.
