My Mech Is Cursed

Let me say that again...
.17
That is God awful. My average W/L ratio? 1.54 (This used to be 1.9 just a month ago...but thanks to matchmaker it's now going downhill, FAST). With the TDR-9SE, I usually pull about 250 - 300 damage in the matches I play. Is that great? Maybe not. But I feel like I'm pulling my own weight considering I don't have any ballistics to over-inflate the damage done. Yet I've only gotten 1 kill in this thing and have only won a single match.
I dunno what to do. I love JJ's and I do OK in my Tbolt (P), so this Tbolt variant should be perfect for me...But it's not. Maybe it's cursed with the ghost of a PGI intern or something? Who knows.
Do any of you have a mech that is "cursed" in a similar way?

In an interesting side-note, my Shadowhawks? ALSO CURSED!
Oh, I did manage to exorcize one of my SH's - dual PPC build. Curse uh-brohoken!

Infact most if not all stats currently available are affect alot by the team, so i wouldnt worry to much about them.
Accuracy and maybe K/D are a better way to measure urself buteven then, accuracy can be affected by supressive fire and K/D can be affected by battles that are just complete stomp overs.

Of mechs that I actually have time in the cockpit on, I'd have to say it's my CTF-4X. W/L ratio of 0.52 and a KDR of 0.19. Does that qualify as cursed?

I misread that as "hax bags".

My 7M has a very strong W/L ratio thank you. But it's a specific build used for one specific 12 man pre-made drop deck.
You can also throw, "and is driven by a high-skilled player" onto that qualification.
I mastered Trebs (5J, 7K, 3C) all in the PUG queue. They are, hands down, the worst medium chassis (not worst single variant though) and possibly the most disappointing chassis in the game.
Some players can make certain bad mechs good. I have great games in my 4G, but that doesn't make it a good chassis.
I'm not sure anyone can make the TBT-5N good though.

LOCUST LCT-3M 76 34 41 0.83 45 56 0.80 15,651
LOCUST LCT-3S 36 25 10 2.50 14 19 0.74 5,396
the 3S is not a good mech, its the worst of the 3 yet apparently im so good in it that im turning the tides of battles to a 2.5/1 ratio were in the other 2 im tanking the game hard. In fact, its so good that is THE BEST MECH i own with a higher W/L than any other mech ive played more than a couple games in, even better than my atlas DDC.
or, random is just plain old random

A lot of is going to have to do with how good you are with other heavy mechs (ie you Elo). Whenever you start with a new 0 piloting skill chassis, especially one that isn't "competitive", you are going to be in for a rough time.

Ironically a friend of mine also claims to always lose when he fields such variant too the TDR-9SE..
I do believe you are cursed my friend

According to the stats I've logged 7 matches with that chassis and that single win. Don't ask me how it got .17, I don't really know. I'm just copying what I see.
Still 6/7 matches ending in defeat and the only reason my team won that 1 match was due to point caps. Until I get this POS closer to a 1:1 ratio, I'm calling it cursed.
