Striders are about the rule of cool. Therefore scorpion's role is badass stealth ninja of dead glaives. If you think it "seems bad" ever saw 3 scorpions take down a detri? If not, try it. I'm sure you're intelligent enough to figure it out.

Uhm. No. Ulti is all about alphaing its target into critical existence failure and is a pure anti-heavy (has no anti-raider ability). Scorpion is an anti-light / single target stunlock killer that takes time to kill its single heavy target. Dante is a riot-skirmisher-assault thing that pretends to know what it wants to be.

[quote]Frankly, more anti-heavy units should be like the [b]Scorpion[/b] rather than the Ulti, Skuttle, Spy, etc. Most counters in the game are fairly versatile soft counters you can reliably field in your force, rather than these obsessive [b]micro-heavy all-ins.[/b] [/quote]

Scorpion
IS
micro-heavy
silly.
One
does
not
simply
fight
command
it
to
the
enemy
base
and
expect
it
to
take
out
heavies
like
a
bantha
might.

Sure
you
can
leave
it
unattended
after
the
stunlock,
but
you
still
have
to
devote
a
sizeable
chunk
of
attention
to
it.
