I recently (before the tournament) maxed all my Centurions... the AL was my least favorite.... I just couldn't get a good feel for it being energy based I guess, any suggestions? (heard a few already but more never hurt)

I have not tried this out yet but it looks pretty fun to me. Use it mainly as a heavy and assault supporter. Use the Large Laser and LRM10 for long range reach,and the SRM6, and Medium Lasers for up in your face encounters.

That might be worth a try. I ended up finishing it out with using 2 Large Lasers (Not sure if ER or normal) & 2 Med Lasers, no missiles.

With 231 total drops I finished 50th overall. 17 different mechs. Wasn't ALL about how many drops. Or cheese builds, considering I don't own a Centi, a Raven, a Stalker or a D-DC. I changed it up ALOT. Only light I ran was my founders Jenner. Only Light I own. LOL. The other 16 mechs are a mix between 2 hunchies, and 14 heavies and assaults.

My biggest damage producing mech was the Atlas-K however. Topping 1100dmg a few times.

I used 1 of 3 buckets, and my Ilya. I was top 150 (lol) for a bit for mediums and heavies, but I'm still trying to level my buckets and my Ilya isn't elited out yet either

Edit: I wasn't asking what people used, I was asking for those that mainly stuck to one mech if you have avoided using that mech again since the tournament ended due to being at least temporarily sick of it.

I used the same assault mech almost exclusively, although I did fight 2 matches each in a light, medium, and heavy just so that I'd be eligible for the "overall" score. I was never on the top 25 leaderboard, but I came in 966 on the overall score and 422 in assult. I was pleasantly surprised, since I thought I'd be much lower.

I will continue to use that same mech, since I've been pretty happy with it. However, as new mechs come out I'm sure I'll eventually move on to something else.

2 large laser 2 streak 2 medium lasers.

You can stuff 16 DHS and a 205 engine in there, or go for a 250 with 12 DHS but that might leave you a little heat starved but you'll be a lot faster.

I rotated out my 4 founder mechs, along with some other mechs.

I only stick to one mech for unlocks, even then it's not longer than 1 day straight.

I like variety.

Think I used an ECM mech once or twice.
