If you're in for the long haul (say 2+ years) I'd go with scala - it's ultimately a better language with a much more complete and powerful type system than typescript. It's also good to learn at least one functional language to pick up the functional techniques (which are ultimately valuable in any language), so if you've never learnt a functional language before I'd recommend it. But typescript will get you most of…

Thanks for your response :) I'm more into a long haul so scala sounds pretty cool. But what just rushed into my mind is that angular 2 will be in typescript so learning scala would only be relevant for server side code. And using two languages when one can handle both doesnt sound quite convicing :/ Would you still recommend scala when I want to work with angular 2 in the near future?
