Which "Special" Unit do you think is the worst? (Personally, I think the Cyber Underling is the worst, although it gains armor and the ability to attack aerial units, I feel like it is still weak vs ground heavy and that it's armor gain is not as benifitial due to the mobitility loss).

Not true...a burrowed ant-II in forests or mountains is devastating! With gang-up its one of the most damaging units vs light or heavy!

And an infected marine kicks butt vs aerial.

Mecha-II while the best in stats, I think it has the least overall 'upgrade' of the 3 other than the extra mobility which isn't much.

cyber ants is great for burying and pop-up against any artillery.
Especially the walker. I ever played team game as kharl with titan teammate.
I deliver ants for my teammate to tranform and bury them.
The opponent build a lot assimilaters when he see many number of buried ants.
But when they pop-up, all are cyberant.
So my opponent can't re-tranform them, it's just like cheating !

I'd say Infected Marines, not because they are much worse in stats but because they are harder to get. Infectors are more expensive than other support units, so it usually doesn't make sense for Khrals to send their Infectors out on the front lines. Cyber Underlings and Mecha II's show up much more often because Assimilators and Engineers cost less and are therefore more expendable and more commonly used.

DroidFreak, the roboticist who plays as Khrals.

(Or Titans now that I realize how legit they are)

they may be harder to get, but that's because once you have them you gain the ability to plague bomb without losing 300 credits.
