Question Paramites or Scrab?

Who would you think would win?
A pack of paramites (5 sounds good)
OR
A single scrab?
(Please note that this would be my first thread and poll)

He just wants to know if 5 Paramites could take on, and beat, one Scrab. In which case I would have to put my money on the Scrab.

A Paramite may have more power, but a Scrabs shred power would make the Paramites into grated cheese!


However, the Paramites could jump the Scrab before he has a chance to power-up. Im not sure.

I think Paramites would win having a great start

In Abe's Exoddus it's very easy to kill Fleeches with a Scrab or Paramite. You actually have to kill some in one of the areas. Well you don't have to, but it makes life easy.

Fleeches only seem to eat scrabs when the scrabs are'nt smart enough to shred the fleeches. It is harder to kill fleeches with paramites though, unless you have more than 1.

I thought that too. Thats why there is 5. If it was just one or two paramites, the scrab would surely win.

if it has to do with fleeches...it's stomach churning....there sooo nasty, it's impossable to lose um' unless you kill im' and they follow you up ledges, down cliff, everywhere.....fleeches are completely unessassary....but hey if 5 paramites and one scrab team up they could take on a million fleeches
