Still, I do try and use it to keep viper up. I'm not sure sometimes if I wouldn't be better with my dashing ravager DPSing cloth instead. A pet with dash/dive is much better at disrupting out of line of sight evocation/drinking.

If you force your enemy to be kiting your
pet, you've already won. Besides, waiting 10 seconds for the poison to wear off they've already lost half their mana bar to viper sting. Personally I'd say the scorpions are borderline overpowered at the moment. If it weren't for the fact that the DoT from the poison prevents you from being CCed and hunters are generally underpowered in the arena anyways, it would probably be a much bigger issue.
