I think scorpion is fine the way it is. It's balanced and thematic. I disagree heavily with the overlap with dante, they're just... not at all the same. There is a bit of overlap with ulti (stealth ambusher), but the similarities end there. Scorpion is not disposable, and thus only pick off isolated targets using AT and stealth to maneuver into a position from which it can take a bite out of opponent's force before retreating. Ulti is basically on a suicide mission against anything but heavy tanks, with only a small chance to return (only if opponent is very sorely caught out). I'd say ulti is closer to a higher weight skuttle.

It's not played much, but I think that's because other options in the same weight range require less attention and management, while also being better against midgame comps (which is the context your first strider will usually be looking at). They tend to do very well when attention is payed to them, having the ability to snipe coms and similarly weighted striders given sufficient isolation.

This
all
said,
when
I
started
writing
this
response
I
went
off
on
a
tangent
about
things
that
could
be
improved
on.
I've
now
put
so
much
effort
into
it
that
I
think
it
warrants
it's
own
thread,
so
it
can
hopefully
get
the
attention
I
hope
it
deserves
while
not
cluttering
up
your
thread
with
infinite
text-wall.
I'll
link
it
here
when
I'm
done
so
that
the
scorpion
discussion
is
'together'
while
also
being
compartmentalised.
