1 -- Since the only ability that needs to be used is Hunting Party, I removed the other abilities to open up the alternative list.

2 -- Here's a somewhat more streamlined/comprehensive script. Because Ikky is faster than the Sandcrawler, it makes more sense to have a pass if Ikky comes in while the Sandcrawler is underground:

standby [self(#2).active & enemy.aura(Underground:340).exists]
ability(Blistering Cold:786) [round=2]
ability(BONESTORM:1762) [round=3]
ability(Black Claw:919) [!enemy.aura(Black Claw:918).exists]
ability(Flock:581)
ability(Hunting Party:921)
ability(#1)

Awesome, thanks a lot, I have added the updated script to the strategy and appreciate the help in making it more accessible, I wasn't aware that I made a mistake that reduced the amount of alternatives.

I have also used chop, it works either way. Since you were kind enough to make a script I have updated the strategy to use chop and added your script to it.
