Hey! Wow!

We know how ECM works. We know it is better than TAG. We get it.

What the OP has said is that TAG does help some. Probably not enough and ECM is still broken, but if you have the space use TAG.

Exactly. A lot of the problem comes from multiple ECM's stacking so well. So I throw a TAG on a catapult that is ECM cloaked by the DDC nearby. Little do I know (because there is no way for me to know aside from spinning around in circles constantly), that an XL 295 Raven 3L with ECM has gotten behind me and decided to start shooting me. Well now I can't do jack and crap aside from basically die.

Even if I do manage to run to my team they won't kill the Raven fast enough due to it's insane hitbox/ecm/speed/whatever excuse you want to use.

I love TAG on my LRM Stalker. I have killed dozens of mech that thought it could close the distance for an easy LRM boat kill but they never made it more than 50 meters. It's especially fun to use on an ECM Atlas. When other players use ECM properly and coordinate with LRM users, it's amazing as well. It may not be a complete counter to ECM, but man it helps.
