How to kill a scarab

Damn those things are hard to kill.

Split your army. Have good amount of different kind of units around him and through anything you have. I remember playing a 2v2 and I was battling all myself alone against two scarabs. I killed them easyly with my big army of Hornets, Cyclops, Tanks and marines. The key it is to make the scarab to turn around, those things move really really slow, and keep away from the legs. Use you leader abilities to attack him and support your units.

I don’t know about you, but I use pesticide.

Not in my experience. Spam Cyclopses or upgraded air does the trick just fine for me.

Exactly! Get multiple, and keep shrouding until it despawns!

Leather Necks… A whole slew of leather necks!

well hunters melt them… and if they dont have engineer backup then you can just cloak and pick them off.

“Mother-! We can get past it sir!”
“Not without help.”
“But sir, you don’t have the firepower!”
“I’ve got the mass.”
