Sure, and technically there are draws. I just can't remember when it happened last time. Maybe I'm just in the noob ELO, but where I play, matches are won by killing. That used to be different but that's another topic.

Maybe you're just a really good fighter
If you had neither the reflexes nor the aiming to outplay the Clan mechs burst, you'd probably see why we common folks struggle. The time scope is about a second. I need like 3 seconds to aim for a mech if I want to shoot more accurate than "roughly the right direction". And that's if we both stand still. People watching me think I aim with the keyboard. And the scary part is that I'm an above average player.
When fighting another IS mech at least I'm fighting someone who uses the same building rules. Clan mechs on the other hand are superior in everything except that one second of burst. But that's pretty much irrelevant for everyone who is not a pro, because you need alot of skill to actually use their burst to your advantage.
Not sure how healthy it is for the game to have balance at the top 10% ELO, but 80% Clan mechs below that ELO range. Once the C-Bill Clan heavies/assaults hit the market, we'll see I guess.
