Just enjoyed watching a forum warrior on my team get wrecked in his Kintaro hiding in the back with LL and LRM5s Posted Image



man kintaros are relatively quick enough he can do the 400m range shoot n scoot LRM routine to keep damage going and never be the main focus of return fire. my LRM assassin does it all the time and they're even less tanky than a kintaro

Please don't run LRMs on a mech that is far better suited for SRMs, especially not a mech that is relatively light and/or fast.

I already use srms on some of them. I refuse to duplicate loadouts so I always end up with something that has LRMs in the end. it's actually one of my more successful mechs

In an assault surrounded by my team.
One enemy spotted 300m ahead on the other side of an obstacle (namely a hill).
Rest of the team turns around and runs away, leaving me (and sometimes another assault) there trying to back away and stay together.
Whole enemy team appears next to me and I die in seconds.
Get called "bad" by a LRM mech sitting 800m from the enemy shooting at terrain.

^1/3 of my matches last night^

I really think that the amount of people who believe there's a major tech inbalance are on some weird drugs.

Because I still say it's a damn Geometry issue and Speed issue before a true "Tech" issue, and I can say that until I'm blue in the face, but they'll never agree.

Heh so this neg wlr + neg kdr guy goes over comms all friendly like: "hey guys been losing all my games so lets win this one. Btw i'm running ppcs and will be off to the side a ways off"

54 damage on an uzl and dies to 1 shot backstab apparently. We of course lose the game :)

Had the worst time ever in Incursion on Tourmaline.

Who puts walls in common pathways. Seriously. Tourmaline is already walled off by indestructible crystals as it is, we really don't need any more.

Got killed trying to back up into the base because the damn walls can't be damaged by your own team any more.

Just ran into an idiot with low ping that claimed high ping gives an advantage.

High ping. Advantage.

The mind boggles. His Locust warps *everywhere* on my screen whenever he collides, to the point where he could literally warp behind me and shoot me in the rear CT just by running straight through. I hit him with 2 ERPPCs to the rear CT by accident for a kill, and he claims that MY lagshield helped? What the hell is he smoking, and can I have some?

Seriously. Screw Locust pilots that abuse collision warping.

Just had a lct pilot warn me off his headshot kill on a dc mech... I went to the back and start hitting the back plate while he keeps firing at the dc mech. DC mech wakes up and alphaed him before I could kill it.

Then he goes and sits on flag and does a cap win even though we are 8-0 up... wtf??? LMAO

Match after match of 3 heavies and a light in Alpha lance. It gets pretty tiring real quick. Cap this, defend from enemy flankers, run here, scout...all while there are heavies with literally more agility than 35-tonner lights around (cough Linebacker, Catapult cough).

You bloody heavies and your sense of entitlement. Screw you all, I'm going up top with a couple of PPCs and just plink away. Enemy lights can have your asses.

Also, a special place in hell exists for you heavies that keep voting Conquest but refuse to play lights or fast mediums. "It pays more CBills" is no excuse for shoving someone to simply sit in glowing laser fences all damn match to prevent a loss by caps.

I gave up on the Uziel, swapped to the Annihilator and started cackling like a maniac as enemy mechs started running away in fear of my AC10 spam.

My score in the Uziel 2S yesterday: 2 wins, 8 losses, 3 kills, 9 deaths, 234 average damage, 170 average match score.
My score in the Annihilator 1A yesterday: 6 wins, 4 losses, 11 kills, 8 deaths, 514 average damage, 309 average match score.

So yeah... the Uziel freaking sucks.

Two sub-100 damage battles in a row was the last straw for the Uziel 2S. I swapped to the 3S after that for 2 battles, but I still found the mech to be fairly bad, so moved on to the Annihilator.

I picked apart a few of them yesterday, those side torsi go pop nicely. Im sure PGI should give them a boost soonly though.

Anni was quite tanky from the couple that I managed to get a shot or 3 on yesterday, pity it is sooo slow, big disadvantage right there.

I did okay in my UZL yesterday. Only played the Hero and the Special one. 1 win one loss for each of them but I really had to bring my A game when playing them since my loadout with them did not take advantage of their quirks or lack of them...

[edit]

Just checked my stats, 1 win 1 loss for the [S], 1 match 1 win for the Belial. Average damage for the 3 matches were over 400.
