You can't win with Tyranids in this case. Run more little bugs to counter Grav? That's great, and now Scatterbikes destroy your list with ease. Run bigger bugs to avoid Scatterbikes? Now everything else in the Eldar list will destroy you, on top of Grav!

Theoretically, if Scatterbikes in their current incarnation didn't exist, Daemons and swarm-nids are actually pretty decent counters to Grav Spam. Sure the Bolters will actually have a use, but how much are Bolters actually killing? Not a lot.

Scatterbikes invalidate so many things. They are in the top 5 or even top 3 of stupid GW units. All while being obj sec.
