Default Re: Does SC work late game v. elite troops?

I can understand SCs working against a small number of weak independent troops early on but would they ever work against a large number of elite troops in late game? From my own experience, I am skeptical.
Ok, how he died? Retrace the battle step by step (the 0 key on your keyboard, oops thats was in dom 1).
Did he died of fatigue, from a chancy wound? What was his prot, his def? Did he failed a MR roll?

SC works very well, but sometime you can get out of luck. A friend of mine lost his Prince of Death from a single star fire which reduced his remaining 59 HP to 0 in a single hit. Talk about bad luck. I wont even compute the probabilities of having such roll.
