There's always someone better than you but, on the other hoof, there's also always someone worse.
Unlike Earth though, in Equestria, that means somewhere out there is the worst-est, baddest-erist, most totally horrible-rific somepony ever.
Ulag is not that pony, but that's not going to stop him from trying.
After a brief stint as the bad-guy, Ulag is 'rehabilitated' by everyponys favorite orbital friendship cannon. He's sent on his way with a tight lipped smile and a gentle tap on the fetlock.
And like most ponies once beaten, he tries to get back on top of his game.
'Tries' being the operative term.
Also, I'm seeing how many 'dislikes' I can collect on this one. Wish me luck!
