I just recently got my first clan mec. Having been an IS pilot, and primarily Med Mechs, Clans seem to play a lot differently. Im just looking for thoughts and suggestions as I grow my clan mec collection. Also, are clan mechs weaker than their IS counterpart. Cuz mine seem to pop easier than my IS mechs.

Clan vs IS are more or less balanced but diferant,

IS tends to be better at poke and shoot, Clan is better at DPS

as for Clan v IS durability, many IS Mechs have armor or structure quirks to make them more durable to offset the higher firepower of many Clan Mechs,

as for chassis durability that depends on many factors, including but not limited to;
shape, size, armor, speed, agility, movement animation, hitboxes and how good you are at exploiting those other factors.

lets take the Griffin for example, if you face tank that is rather fragile but if you twist, shield and pack a standard engine it can kill an Atlas in a 1v1 dual
