Not nearly enough to balance Terran, but it's a start.

What was wrong with the ultralisk ram ability?

From what I've heard, it was useless.
The amount of time it took to use, you might as well have attacked. It would have done the same amount of damage, but had splash damage on top of it.

ok so i haven't really played many mainstream PC games in the last 10 years. Can you play starcraft2 1on1 with a direct connection... as in not using battlenet?

Don't think so. Bnet is for everything. I don't think you can even do single player without it.

You need bnet just to install the software.
