The second, I wouldn't. I feel like you'd do too little damage, and that would drop to even less at brawler range.
The third....well, first of all, you've got the wrong ammo in there. Secondly, 30 shots with an Ultra is not enough. And it's pretty hot. I'd think of you as an easy kill unless you somehow managed to stay really far away.

x4 Large Laser
or
x4 Mediums Laser
x1 AC/10
x1 SRM4 (if you swap to an AC/5 or UAC/5, you can maybe cram two SRM4s onto this)
The second build almost needs both endo and ferro to make it work. Both mechs use an XL350 and double heat sinks.

XL360
4 MLs
LBX/10 (1T ammo)
SRM6 (1T ammo)
Use the remaining tonnage for DHS.
This build has a nice alpha strike of 45 for the enemies' kiester. Not sure if its enough ammo or how the heat will be though.

It should work - you may have to be careful with your SRM usage. The mech should be fast enough to dip into cover to let yourself cool down though.

By the way, thanks for your great videos, True. I find your commentary about your tactics and decisions to be some of the best of all the game play videos people post. Definitely thought provoking stuff.

It's and extremely shot conservative build. Not to mention one has to be very concienscious about heat.

Add armor and heat sinks to your liking and laugh as people try to kill you by shooting your RT after your arm's off.

This build works pretty well. Heat is manageable, even on Caustic. The LBX/10 is a bit hard to aim, but it seems pretty powerful. High speed alpha strikes are sooo satisfying.

1 Ton is not enough ammo for a match (at least for me). Having 2 tons of both types of ammo means that you have ~30 volleys of LBX + SRM6.
Now what I'm trying to figure out is why I should run this build over a Hunchback 4SP? The Hunchback is a little slower, and has a little less armor, but it does the same job with 2-SRM6's (bigger alpha value), and it has the added staying power of running a standard engine.

Endo, FF, DHS in there as well. I think I have 12DHS and the heat is pretty reasonable even on Caustic.
Usually I start the round by sniping with the Gauss a bit and then one the mechs start brawling I strafe in and lay down some damage. I don't typically look for a 1v1 duel and prefer to engage mechs that are otherwise occupied whenever possible and deal out enough damage that can't be ignored and when they turn to me I'm gone at high speeds and my teammates have their back then they turn around again and well you get the idea.
Flame with this loadout it great for team play.

Another nice thing about this build is that you can absorb an entire 6xSRM6 alpha on the right side with minimal decrease in firepower when you inevitably get ambushed by a splat cat. Plus it's kind of hillarious watching all your body parts fall off while your AC20 is still intact.
