'''Paralyzing Venom''' is a [[special ability]] of [[Scorpicore]]s. A target surviving a Scorpicore's attack has a 20% chance of being paralyzed immediately after. Paralyzed creatures forgo their turn for the remainder of the current combat round and the two combat rounds thereafter, unless they are attacked meanwhile. Paralyzed creatures take full damage from attacks, but retaliate at only a quarter of their strength. The effect can be removed with [[Cure]] or [[Dispel]]. Paralyzing Venom is negated by the [[Recanter's Cloak]] and [[Cursed Ground]], but not by the [[Orb of Inhibition]]. | '''Paralyzing Venom''' is a [[special ability]] of [[Scorpicore]]s.

Because of their low stats for a level 6 creature, especially in health, two [[Minotaurs]] are considered to be a better deal than one Manticore, at the same cost with double the damage and more health. Basic Manticores are almost useless as their speed isn't sufficient to fly into a town, and they don't have paralyzing ability. Scorpicores are decent for sieging towns, and also they can be used to block shooters, paralyze stacks and soak up retaliations, leaving the [[Red Dragon and Black Dragon|Dragons]] and [[Minotaur and Minotaur King|Minotaurs]] to finish off the opponent without receiving damage | Because of their low stats for a level 6 creature, especially in health, two [[Minotaurs]] are considered to be a better deal than one Manticore, at the same cost with double the damage and more health.

High speed of Scorpicores allows a hero to use them for rushing through the map, when Dragons are yet to be purchased. | ||
