What is your least favourite 'mech to pilot in the game. Mine would personally would be the Cicada because it's not quite a light and it is a terrible medium (IMO).

The Spider. No matter how fast I make it, no matter how I cheese it up. It dies... spectacularly!

The Victor. I feel like I should love it, but never have and is feel weirdly guilty about it.

Any mech with JJs I use to have fun in jump brawling before the nerfs have now become my least favorite. I literally don't bother with JJs anymore because they've been turned into a novelty instead of a viable tool.

The SCR-C. You ever have a chassis that just doesn't seem to perform for you, no matter how hard you try? Yeah, that's the C for me. All of my Stormcrows are mastered, and I have a few fun, effective loadouts - but they don't work on the C.

I've recently been trying to run the C more often - it's now my most played clan mech, but it's also the worst-performing mech in my entire arsenal, despite having an identical loadout to the best performing mech in my bays, the SCR Prime.

Oddly, I would like to pilot the Cicada and use it as a more durable ERLlaser harasser (better than the Raven IMO), but I can't get over how Fugly it is. It is like piloting Baba Yaga's hut lol.

My least favorite mech might be the Battlemaster I have or maybe the Misery. Its hard for me to say.

The Cicada 3m is a fantastic mech.

Cicada x5 is with my favourites. I can't say any of my mech is least fav. Everyone has something special.

Oh man for the guys who don't like the Cicada and Battlemaster, those are two of my favorites, hahah, funny how that works out. The 1S and 1G Battlemasters are amazing mechs. And the ECM Cicada is a blast to play.

Least favorite? It isn't one mech it's all the mech variants I have to play and don't want to play to elite out the variant I actually WANT to play. Those are my least favorite.

However, if I were to pick one, the CTF-4X. MOST HORRIBLE hardpoint layout EVER! 2 ballistics in each arm with limited slots, 2 energy in the CT and Missiles in the Head. Sure you could go with 3 AC5's but you have almost no other weapons to support them. In the words of Charles Barkley, TURRIBLE!

Yen lo wang was the worst purchase i've ever made... Also I might be in the minority here, but I was massively dissapointed with the highlander... Oh and the spider 5k, wouldn't say I hate it, but either fix machineguns or stop encouraging people to use the damn things! I've even seen 2 different people running no weapons apart from machineguns this week :o

pretty much any assault. feels like i'm watching snails zoom past me in them. only barely tolerable one is the Battlemaster 1S since i just made it a LRM boat. i mean at least SOMETHING of mine is making it to the battle before it's over.

T-Bolts also make my unliked list as do shadowhawks.

Spider 5V - utterly useless. The only mech I've sold back.

Right? I'm not sure how the lag shield works, because it's never worked for me: moving at full speed perpendicular to an enemy in cover, I'll still be one-shotted from across the map...

Summoner. Not fit in my play style. Underperformer and ugly. Never again. :)

I even like Drangons and Awesomes.

Possibly the most polarizing variant there is.
