Leave Thorn. Buff Suros and ARs.
Suros and Red Death with their healing capabilities are the perfect counters to Thorn, just as ARs are perfect counters to Hand Cannons in general.
Some people say scouts are fine, I think a slight precision buff wouldn't be out of the question, just to make them more rewarding marksmen weapons.

Hell no. You HAVE to get a kill with the Red Death for the perk to activate. All you have to do is a shoot a thorn and land once.
