After all these changes and hotfixes, people went back from scouts to assaults.
Cal/Gal assaulting/killing aspect fell down comparing to what it used to be. That's why Mk.0 is used more.
Also i'm not surprised with amarr scout.
I known it won't be as popular as caldari when it comes to scanning.

It could be that it is technically the fastest scout suit in the game and that players like to get to the action as soon as possible and are probably not patient enough to wait for a vehicle to get called in to take them. Their speed is perfect for getting to objectives fast and getting out fast along with dodging most shots coming at them which makes up for the lack of EWAR. It might also be that they are the only suits that can enable a player to OHK a heavy suit with just nova knives but that would be highly unlikely given how difficult it is to wield the knives without dying too much.
I have been seeing a lot of Minscouts lately since last November. The funny thing is that these suits are nowhere near being OP. In fact, a lot of players regard the Minscouts as hard-mode suits that only dedicated players who enjoy a challenge would use. And with the lowest CPU/PG compared to other suits, I'm not really 100% sure what's causing this sustainability.
I'll tell you why from my perspective :
1. NK fixes. They have now better range and detection.
2. Scan changes. Focused scanner with 5sec scan is very rarely a problem if it ever is. Amarr scout won't scan **** past 18m. And 2 damps are enough to pass their scans [with cloak].
3. Minja have enough fitting spcace to fit : 3x enhanced shield extenders and everything else can be proto and complex. Literally everything.
4. Everyone likes that hacking bonus.

I known it won't be as popular as caldari when it comes to scanning. That wouldn't really make sense for the Scout Mk.0 especially after the EWAR rebalancing. Minscouts have to fit more dampeners and possibly a cloak to get close enough without getting detected. They are essentially the squishiest suits to wear. Most militia-level weapons can overtake the Minscout no problem.
After EWAR rebalanicng minja is as unscanable as every other scout. 2 damps + kincat and you're good to go.
Scouts are squishy for other suits, but also other suits are squishy for us. For eg i take out sentiniels and assaults as fast as scouts. Cuz knives, speed, dampen you know.

The Minjas are the Masochists.
They are like little versions of Wolverine. Going crazy and laughing like hyenas trying to cut you with their claws (knives).
Whether they succeed or they die, they are always laughing. You can blast holes in them repeatedly, but they keep trying.
Minjas are crazy. All I know is that as long as they keep dying in proto suits I can make sure that I make a profit.
Kill is always worth more than suit price.
And they [i] will always come for more.
