Snolla

I main Subby and I have a very hard time dealing with Scorpion players online. He is my worst matchup by far and the thing that gets me with him is not so much his teleport but his mixups. For some reason I can't deal with his mixup game and it may have something to do with the threat of the low leg trip special he can add onto the end of his combos.
Also how does one get away from hellfire? Can't block it, can't ice-dash away from it, when I jump they often get me when I land.. it seems like the only feasible way to escape it is to jump a fraction of a second after your opponent has activated the move which is very difficult with a move that has such a fast startup.
I also get caught with the spear when I jump quite often, however if I never jump I will get hellfired all day so I get baited too easily. I have been considering switching my main over to Ermac (or a least have him be a second to Subby) so I can use him when matched up against a scorpion player. What would you guys recommend to deal with his mixups, hellfire, and as a good matchup against him?
Scorpion really is my achilles heel. I can deal with any other matchup so far. Thanks everyone for the help :headbang:
