What in your opinion is the worst ultimate in the game?

[Barack Obama]

And yes I know every ultimate is useful in some way, However our of every ult which do you think contributes the least?

I personaly think Riki's ult is absolutly useless, its way to easily countered and with a gem you baisicaly dont even have a ult

Templar Assassin's. Her traps last less than a second and are pretty useless for an ulti. Using them also breaks stealth.

Just my 2 cents, she can be lethal when built properly, but I don't much care for her since she relies too much on camping with her terrible range.

11 free wards yeh useless

Your ulti is a ward... Yeah, there's a problem with that.

I used to think the same way about NightStalker's ulti, till I started playing as him. Given the fact that NightStalker hits like a truck at night, an on demand darkness or extended night is not really a bad thing. Add an Aghanim's into the mix, Valve just officially gave you a map hack.


On topic: I can't think of one ultimate that is really useless.And there are not many ultimates that aren't much of a show to watch either. But an ultimate that wouldn't help the team might be that of Axe. KS equipment, nothing good comes from giving the kills to Axe anyway. Just my opinion, you might not agree.

omg

kotl and ns on the same team both with aghs

Would you care to explain why that had to do anything with my comment?

Bounty Hunter. I play BH and I like him alot. I'm not saying it's entirely useless. Every ultmate move -every special attack- is integrated in the game for a reason. But the category is "worst." Bounty Hunter.

makes your carrys farm faster map hack no invs ok what ever you say

Bounty hunters ult can get ppl away faster, can get them to chase faster, ofcourse more money yatta yatta, like i said i play him. I know him well enough to use in ranked. But when you know a hero, doesnt that in a way it make them less effective against you? With tihs thought in mind bounty is an easy hero to counter in iteself. For example - I know void and how he operates, and death prophet but it doesnt matter if you know these two heros ult. You still cant do much of anything if void's ult lands or DP pushes a tower.

Even if you get tracked it wont mean much if the team sucks. Unlike enigma per-say -whose ult can stun and damage a whole team at once- bounty's ult doesnt hold anyone still. Yes its a good riki counter, but a good riki can kill bounty before bounty even know whats going on. The flare ult COMPLETELY relies on the team skillset which in a way makes it the worst ult in the game IN MY OPINION. In a way its a draw-back. not saying they should change it but thats how it is. I wish they'd at least give it burn damage or something. Even a jungler can get killed during his farm. I can mention more reasons about why I think this but I'll stop here.

I said I think it's the worst, not entirely useless.

I've yet to really see a dark seer ult be worth while
( I don't play him and rarely see him as it is, but it's always basically a fail in my games )

Dark seer can easily turn a team fight with the illusion wall just as well as an undying tombstone.

It works best against PA Terrorblade, VOID, and carries with passives. Imagine that, void stunlocked by himself! Pa crit hit to death, Terrorblade Pommeled with his own metamorphosis damage.

Oh and elder titan's ult is not worthless, dont fire it out to scare enemies! use it when they're stunned, disabled, slowed, cornered! BE SMART when using this, and that applies to all heroes ultimates.

On the note of most worthless ultimates I would add... Lone Druid.

So far in pro-games Lone druids been more effective ranged than melee. Correct me if im wrong.

Probably Ursa or Draw.
Ursa: well, he deals a bit more damage. Is not that he really needs that.
Drow: also a bit more damage, unless you get close. Then it does nothing.

To the people who claim Bounty Hunter, Nature Prophet and Meepo ult are bad.

dude bounty hunters ult give you money. money. the single most valuable resource in the game.a teamwipe with track gold is 300 x 5 = 1500 for bounty, and 150 x 5 = 750 for anyone else who participates. on 5 hroes that is 4 x 750 = 3000, 3000 + 1500 is 4500 without gold from kills. I have genuinely seen 10K + gold swing from a teamfight with a bh on the winning team. (i.e. navi ti3 lower bracket finals vs orange game 3)

also lvl 3 track for you whole team is 900 gold.


On acompletely different note I do believe undyings ult is currentl bugged and doesn't heal as much as it should.

brood riki ulties, naga, anyone saw good naga ult on pubs? all i saw is used to escape and ruining combos of team mates. thats what make her very bad carry on pubs - biggest farm dependency, not offensive ult.

[DaWizz]

Invoker's ultimate its useless :D

Undying's ulti.
Noone ever see any impact of undying's ulti in a team fight. It always feels like you would do the thing and without it.

[Fenimore]

Messaggio originale di Phantasm:

Actually the mana cost of activating is really the problem, if you keep it on and leave it on at lvl 1 it is only 20 mana/sec which is more than manageable. The prob is people turn it on and off and waste the 110 mana

That is an extremely good point that I forgot to mention. Besides being hard to control and maintain early, the ult has that extra mana speed bump. 110 mana at level 6 is huge for almost every hero, and his other skills do more damage or have better effects at the same, or lower, cost.
I am in no way saying that the ult is bad though, just hard to maintain pre-bloodstone. (I believe someone else mentioned this too, I forget where though.)

[Bananenmann]

Undying's Ult amps every source of damage by 30% which is soo much additional damage just because you hit a single Button and it also provides a decent heal and a tiny slow. That's not bad at all.

[Desblat \ Обломов]

Shadow Demon - just a s.hit. It is basically Over nerfed vipers ulty.

Undying has too low health to stand near enemy so this amp works... Play undying if you want more reasons why it is so weak.
