Is it bad I read this as "Dyslexia is no laughing matter" before it clicked that you had intentionally jacked with the words?

+1 to OP!
Though I don't agree with two points: SL and swayback were never the meta. They were, back in the old days of closed beta when there were no limits on engine size. One could fit 9xSL into a Hunchback, grab the biggest XL engine and run around with some 120kph. Very appealing build that can be somehow imitated by Blackjack with 7xSL and the biggest engine. Or 7xML for that matter.

Just something who is usually said during the match.

AARRGG!!! GET IF OFF!! GET IF OFF!!! AAAARRRGG!: Allouction usually say when a Heavy/Assault mech is attacked by a Spider. Meaning he require your immediate assistance. Have some mercy for the arachnophobe. :3

The pass: It's the The way allowing on HPG Manifold to get on the other side of the moutain, with out taking the great corner. Or the tunnel. Going there alone usually mean get headshooted by the Boomjaëger always watching that way. ^^

The tunnel: On HPG Manifold, there's a unnel allowing to go a bit under the mountain. You usually avoid to fight in that area. Unless you are in huge number and all rushing at the same time ZERG-STYLE (KEKEKEKEKEKE). Yeah the radio actually WORK on that tunnel! Same for your cell phone! If you have a goodbye message to send. You can do it there! :)

LRM-boat: Assault mech loaded with long range missiles. The pilot has picked one of the most armored mechs in the game, but have no intention on getting close to the frontline and expose himself to enemy fire/help absorb damage. The LRM-boat will instead stand at least 800 meters back and fire missiles while complaining about locks "not hold". Announces his presence with "Hold locks, please." Often dies to wolf packs.

Still wrong, I can't imagine how this can be misread all the time.

I'm not letting something silly, like facts, get in the way of humor.

Streaktaro - Kintaro packed full of Streak missiles, lazors and huge XL-engine. Solution if you have pest problem with Wolf Packs, but not very good at anything else.

Lego field - Area of tiny buildings at Forest Colony camouflaged with trees. Even on light mech you can't see them before you are catched by them and can't move anywhere. To assault mechs deadly trap which leaves them totally exposed to fire. Location at C3/C4-border.

**** plug - Quick rush through tunnel at Crimson Straits *KEKEKEKEKE*

It's in there. Look in the dictionary under Arachnophobe. I just reworded it and added my own piss-poor writing style.

Loved that post!
"GG" annoys me sooo much in 12v0 Matches .

Don't chase the Rabbit / Squirrel is still missing, where the whole Team starts running aways from the battlefield to hunt one Light Mech. Ref.: RTB

The Gauss rifle: a useless weapon that takes so long charge that Gauss-jagers now have trouble getting more than 6 kills per match.

Range modulus: pay an arm and a leg to obtain the additional range equivalent to the mech leaning slightly forward.

Team orders: allowing the mechcommander the place an icon on the minimap about 2 minutes into the game indicating the team is walking in the wrong direction.

"Please Lock". A friendly reminder that even people who use auto-aim weapons need help hitting a target.
