What counters Scorpions, from Amaran Stinger, spamming units?

HELP

In early game each time Scorpions were spamed from enemy deck a enemy unit (in void?) generates at least another three units ready for the attack. I was dead in 6 or so turns, all was a mess and i dont remember anything, may by it was a fire card.

What card have this mechanics?

Edit: sorry I explained myself wrong, my scorpions were countered and every time the enemy drew one of my scorpions at the same time he created 3 units that can attack in the same turn

Sounds like a go wide Vishne and Stinger deck. Try these

​

Flying, Quickdraw, Lightning Storm, Torrential Downpour, Hailstorm, Harsh Rule, Vara's Favor, Malediction, Devastating Setback, Jotun Hurler, Tamarrys Earthshaker, Shadowlands Tyrant, Vicious Highwayman, Plague, BlackSky Harbinger.

​

Another option is to make sure you have early removal. I made a person rage quit yesterday just by ice bolting their 1st 2 units.

Which is the perfect answer to troll deck praxis with Teacher and Stinger, defiance and ice bolt. They get so trolled that their troll got rolled!

Haha that might have been me. Think i drew 3 straight power in an Uber aggro deck when I flooded the game before as well. Ahh sweet rng

Yea not sure what type of deck you're using but it sounds like you need more early presence. Either more early units or removal. Also generally speaking the scorpions themselves are more of a nuisance I find. Tarkatta listed alot of great removal options but you can also use scout coins to move the scorpion spawn card to the bottom of your deck.

When I get frustrated by a card or mechanic I try and build it myself to see how others play around it.

Nothing off the top of my head spawns 3 units with charge when drawing a unit/card. You mention Fire, perhaps he had a Scrap Heap relic that lets Grenadin Charge, and happened to draw/play Assembly Line each time after drawing your Scorpion Trap?

Thx, im still confused about that battle, it seems that these units appears after another unit triggers with the scorpion trap draw and they werent grenadins, may be i can see again another time
