This is how you deal with scarabs.
Great vid lmao. Can’t believe that was a Challenge Battle. That dude sucked. He just kept his same strategy even though you were completely destroying it. Lol
I started over. I’m in platinum league now. Nothing but scarab and double harvester players. Will hit masters in a few days and get smashed going up against level 11 units with my level 7 and 8 units.
Okay. That makes a lot of sense. Cause I was confused as hell as to why your units were so low. Listening to you on here has always made me feel like you were a higher level player. Lol
Well I made it to Masters 3 times. Don’t know if that’s considered a high player. Each time I made it there, I couldn’t go past level 2. I’d get to level 2 and eventually get stomped down to the beginning of Masters again.
I don’t use tech or pay to upgrade so when I get tired of losing to people with units 3 levels higher than mine in Masters, I start over with a new account.
I make it to Masters 1. But can never get passed it. Last season I made it to 3650 and never saw it again. This season I can’t get past about 3600. But this time around I’m facing a lot of Tiberium opponents. Smh

Well it seems kind of pointless to use scarabs in the first place unless it was paired with a scout to prevent the enemy from activating/attacking the scarab. I thought of an idea that turns the scarab into a support unit, you lose it for the sake of one of your tanks. These tanks are the ones that charge up before firing like scorpion tank, tick tank, centurion, predator and titan (if you could get these last 2 to side with Nod). What happens, is the scarab walks into the tile the tank is in and disappears. You now lost a scarab worth 30! Now the tank is boosted cause of the scarab (the scarab is now the next ammo of the tank). Its next shot is now 2 and a half times stronger than usual, and its attack is super charged per scarab used. So 2 squadrons of scarab will give the tank 4 super charged shots. There is a 20% chance of the tank backfiring, causing the tank to hurt itself to the point the enemy has no trouble killing it.

I use the Scarab as the scout unit...

A scout that can be easily beaten by other scouts; if only they were in sets of 3, can't attack one of the unit types and are less fragile. Either of these would be a good buff so the scarab is seen as worth it.

Just made it to Masters again. Now comes the losing every 7 out of 10 matches. 😞

Good luck with your climb to master rank. I too am in master rank, but stopped at master 3, can't even reach Master 2. My highest score was about 3270 and it fell to 3200. After that, I stopped and waited for season reset. One think I would want to see about scarabs is that they shouldn't be able to kill a zone trooper/cyborg in 1 hit. It seems rather strange to have a zone trooper fight a scarab, but one scarab is all it takes to put them down. With zones and cyborgs can shoot a scarab that launched itself and cause the scarab to explode on its own tile.

If you are at 3200 you might as well keep pushing and try for 2. No matter how much more you lose you can’t fall any lower. But you have the potential to still reach a night plateau.
