I would never tell an MM to take an alpha strike in a big group. More attacks follow you know. MM's have neither the health or shielding ability to take damage like a Brute can.

Even before BG mode was added, MMs could still send in their pets and then follow afterward (resummoning any pets that had fallen). With BG mode, MMs can pretty easily wade into large team spawns first with help from their secondary.
Also, the first attack volley is what people refer to as "Alpha", the following attacks would be referred to as "post-alpha".
