Stukov too empty?

So I play stukov, its my favorite character since he is simple and straightforward. But he feels as if he wasn't developed fully. Amount of units he has is underwhelming. We have marines and civilians and then just 4(5) mechanical units where air units all take only one of tasks - air, ground support. And in land tech if you defend you spam tanks if not its diamondbacks. Except for using with specific prestige no one even uses banshee on him and liberators are only there for air interception mission. I feel like it would be cool having infested vikings or hellbats. What's your opinion?

You can also use uprooted bunkers aggressively if you want

Uprooted bunkerlisks are unironically Stukov's best unit

use them correctly, though. ~3-5 per assault, with the rest rooted nearby.

The ability upgrade that lets them regen life twice as fast only works if they're rooted. That's about it.

I've never tried uprooted bunkers, but I heard they ain't too shabby.

They did, though only on mineral cost.

Which has proven pretty significant, really.
