- Spread out your Claymores so that if the Lobster ball gets lobbed at you, you will only lose a few.

- Build a bunch of Urchins. Amphs move slow so you should be able to get out to the middle of the map before them.

- In the later game have some kind of solution for a dense ball of Scallops being lobbed at you. Likho or Reef missile both work well.

The non-Scallop player does have to put a fair bit more work in, which is a problem... but counterplay does exist.

Yes
I'm
aware
we
lost
but
given
that
myself
and
@Nitrivv
were
playing
against
their
two
best
players
in
sea,
and
were
holding
more
than
half
of
our
side
of
the
map
until
the
nuke,
I
don't
think
our
opponents'
heavy
scallop
strategy
was
overpowering.
Possibly
if
they'd
made
a
few
Envoys
to
clean
up
our
Urchins,
or
been
a
bit
less
greedy
with
their
Scallop
lobs,
it
would
have
been
different.
