I made a small video showcasing how I use the plasma caster and the Elder Sword using the speedy boi (aka scout predator) or the 87 hunter predator to slowly pressure and wear down the fireteams to overtime. This playstyle seems to be much more effective since everyone seems to know how to parry melee attacks against those melee rushers who try to end the game early. Feel free to watch the video and let me know what you guys think, do you think this play-style is the best play-style for the scout and do you think this would be consistent against experienced fireteams?
Plasma Caster + Elder Sword = BIG OOF!

Not a fan of a bouncing after each melee and shot. I know why you do it, and it feels cheese, especially against PS4 players, but whatever.
You have decent hit and run tactics, and you have a varied playstyle. I am curious how you would do against the Russian 4stack that is out there with prozipix who is just out to grief the predator. I refuse to play against them after beating them numerous times due to time because they will chase you and chase you until the match just ends because they aren’t there to win the game, they are there to grief. They also lower their graphics to gain advantage when spam spotting and if they will do that, they will probably use whatever they can to win, and in the current state of the game, its just not fun. I just leave when I see any of their crew.
One thing I would say is, use pigs when you can. You healed in one of the matches and there was a pig right in front of you. Good teams will punish that as you need every heal you can get. I regularly leave a trail of pigs that I go back to throughout the fight.

Did u see that fokin bug at 1.08? Have been happened with me too often recently. That includes bow, plasma, handgun plasma, generally every range weapon. So strange.

It may be unessary in some matches, but I admit that I do appreciate how the FT enjoys a bunny hopping Predator, as much as a Predator enjoys a bunny hopping FT.

Dodging as many shots as possible while playing the predator is important, and bunny hopping helps with that :D
