It is the ultimate glass cannon fit. And good players do have a hard time dealing with it, although I hope you continue to underestimate it so I can continue my fun. Best counter is packs of heavies, but those have their own issues vs assaults.
Not when we use Ars but i prefer the hmg |

You need to hit the scout for 1 consistent second without a break during that time. If the scout is good, you won't even get that amount of time because he is approaching your flank. But as I said, continue to underestimate to your own detriment.
I never underestimate knifes, it's just you have your whole class centered on it so that means less shield/armour to rip through with the hmg and i currently have all 3 sharpshooters maxed so i get a bit longer range |

You can drop a protoheavy in under a second if you burn all your stamina.
The smg buff will help with it's range so I'm not sure if a knife fit is the best way to go |
