What stops Striking Scorpions?

Greetings fellow pointy-heads!
As a 100% legit Eldar player, in no way green or smashy, I was wondering what typically winds up countering early Striking Scorpions in 1v1 games that you play. I am asking purely for the benefit of the other, less killy, Eldar boyz like I definitely am.

Ork players are definitely the best in the community
Not that there are any in this thread.

About Space marines, Stun grenade from scouts is very good.
Against Orks I don't use striking scorpions too much.

i didnt play 1v1 yet
i fear the defeat cause i am not good enough yet. but i saw youtubers and streamers who recked the scorpions by going 3p instead of 2 p elite and scout stun grenade with asm leap doctrine.

Just so's were on the same page here, obviously the pink and puny humans are no match for our sneaky Eldar ways. We should be discussing how Scorpions fall to bigger, greener, handsomer foes.

I didn't played much until now, but I would say going lootaz with scraps to be able to slow the scorpions (they are quite slow for eldars already) and rekt them from afar in general. I think with a bit of controls (nades from shootaz?) and maybe some ambushes you could get them. Just be sure to have gretchins nearby to detect them in the smoke to be able to finish them. Play quite defensively in general and perhaps try to go more for the mid/late game.
If all of that doesn't work, you can wait a bit for the patch coming at the end of the month that should nerf them hard. ^^
Keep us in touch if it's working or not, we can try to find a way! (by the way, if you wanna try things against me (i'm not very good but still good practice I would say), you're more than welcome to pm me)

Keep in mind eldar early heros all have very low hp compared to the other race counter parts so stuns, slows hurt them bad but if let loose they can wreck face
