Honestly, this mech will be a death trap for new players, but somebody already submitted the AC/20 variant of the Cataphract 2X, so I don't really care. The Lion is my personal favorite 2X build; the playstyle you have to adopt to make it work is ridiculously hotblooded. Basically, it's a fast skirmisher with a loadout in the style of a typical brawler atlas, with less firepower. Three medium lasers provide decent hitscan damage, two Artemis equipped SRM6 in the arm make for a nice rocket punch that can reach out to 200 meters with high accuracy thanks to artemis, and the AC/10 has enough range to feasibly return fire on mechs with PPCs as well as a fast enough recycle time to often fire twice while rushing in between cover. Be sure to present your right arm as a shield when retreating under heavy fire, you'll only lose a medium laser if it comes off, as opposed to your life if you lose a torso segment.

Theory:
- It has all types of weapons - ballistic, missile, and energy.
- It has AMS, Standard engine, max armor and max speed for survivability and mobility.
- It works best from medium to short range but gives the player something to do from long range so they can explore all the tactical options.
- Straight forward design with only 3 weapon "systems" to manage and no jumpjets. Leaves room for new stuff to discover.

Good long range harassment/suppression with the ability to cause massive amounts physical and psychological damage at medium and close ranges. Set your lasers to chain fire and hold the button down while you chain fire your UAC5s and SRM4. It has a 1.38 heat efficiency rating by default, and it's almost unstoppable once the cool run and heat containment efficiencies are unlocked.

Build Smurfy: CTF-2X

Designed as a long range platform providing long-range pinpoint damage, and still is quite effective in a general brawl. Heat management isn't too harsh if you're careful with the lasers set on a chainfire mode (the DHS will allow for one constant full beam of laser fire easy), and the streaks serve as a back-up to swat away pesky light mech's.
