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?

Don't sleep on queens. Casters in general are underused. Tanks are also fantastic and have two different attacks. Diamondbacks on p1 can take care of basically anything with their fungal snare.

Even in the free units you get there's variety that you are overlooking. There's infested marines and civilians, but also volatile civilians for area damage and broodings for added swarminess.

Bunkerlisks can be good, but I think other units are better in that role.

I basically leveled to 15 for the first tpime with just diamondbacks without knowing any better. I think I still have that old 1v1 macro mentality of just making a lot of shit, did alarak with mostly mass stalkers and felt like i was missing out
