HI all. I recently started playing Marauder Hammer Scrapper in PVP and like it a lot. Ive also played a good amount of Condi Rev and a fair amount of power rev. Since my Scrapper is the least ive played, i would like to ask the experienced pvp’ers how they feel scrapper measures up against Rev.

Personally in a 1v1 scenario a power Rev is deadlier than a condi Rev.
Hammer bloody hurts.
Conditions are easy to mitigate, unlike the popular use of Stealth Gyro i personally prefer Mortar. Another water field is amazing also it synergises well with elexir trait (might and condi remove) and if combined with elexir gun 5# gives you that much needed sustain against a condi. A light field with pulsing blind can mess them up and make them miss those hits if fighting on-point and in team battles, blast it and get some retaliation to hurt them even more.
My win rate 1v1 vs a condi Rev is a 80%ish if i lose it’s usually that i messed up and they capitalized on my mistakes.
My win rate 1v1 vs a power Rev is probably 40%ish at best. Could also be that i just need to l2p, or that Mortar is less efficient against a power Rev than a Condi one, Stealth gyro would give you that much needed breathing room, but provides little utility aside that.

In a 1v2 scenario On-Point fight vs some dude let’s say a Thief and a condi Rev: i can hold my ground for quite some time, even possibly make one of them retreat.

In a 1v2 scenario On-point fight vs some dude Thief and a power Rev: if the rev uses his mighty boons to boost Thief and stay ranged with hammer i’m almost certain to retreat or die. Hammer 2 is on a ludicrously low cooldown and does massive damage, can’t be reflected as is hammer 5, only block-able. Eventually he’ll get me low and thief will capitalize on that finishing me off.

That’s just me.

I play both scrapper and condi revenant, from my experience scrapper has a favourable match up both vs power and condi revenants. However not alot of scrappers seem to be experienced at the match up and as a result they tend to lose the 1v1.

Scrapper has to much sustain and CC bombs for revenants to deal with, try to match stealth gyro with their UA ( so it cancels) and go for CC/dmg if they are not on shiro. Always make sure to cover your bomb with poison in case they go for the shield heal.
