            I think you're overselling striders a little bit there... if you move around all your stuff (and specifically all your placeholders)  in a ball such that it can be stunned by a single scorpion, you are super duper nub. Not that Scorpions are a typical early rush when the opponent doesn't already have heavies of some kind.

            Similarly, Dante can blow up at least one placeholder at range, but has no legitimate expectation of killing them all.

            That being said, against a strider rush I would much prefer Racketeer, Thunderbird, or probably even Infi.
