@4Yoshino Quick Cards are naturally weaker than Other Command Cards. Same for Quick NPs compared to Buster and Arts NPs. That is why Quick NPs have such high modifiers than Buster Nps I have done a comparison between 2 ST Lancers, Scathach and Bryhildr. The results are in the pastebin posted below.

Scathach is a strong servant. Despite her terrible command card deck, she is still a strong Anti Divine/Undead Servant. Problems with Scathach pre Skadi was the fact that she was always just a Nuke. Now her being a Nuke isnt a problem. The Problem is that compared to other Lancers her NP Gain and Star Gain is quite lousy. This causes issues while designing a team. If your team doesnt have 2 wavers or some ways of getting Scathachs NP gauge high enough without excessive need for her to get those stars for herself. CEs like Knights of Marines/ Kscope Help alleviate some of the issue. Then comes the fact that Quick never had the best support. The greatest quick support servant we ever received before Skadi was Atalanta and Atalanta Alter with their Quick Skills. Now compare this to the the meta breaking, buster memeing wizard known as Merlin who just causally walked in tossed 20% NP Charge + 20% Attack Boost and a 50% Buster Boost + 100% Crit boost on some buster servant and just walked away from the impending absolute destruction. Obviously the Situation now is different. With the Introduction of Skadi, Quick is making a strong push forward. Scathachs low NP Charge rate is not too much of a issue (Albeit its still a issue). Same with her Star gen. However Skadi's helpful buff have helped her like Merlin helped every Buster servant. TL;DR Scathach is not the worst Lancer. Personally id say Enkidu is but thats due to me just not liking his Deck and skills.
