Oh yes, Clan XLs.
Wish I had just gone clan from the start. IS feels so weak, even the good mechs. Maybe the new balance changes will help.
I am IS right now and i can say with 100% accuracy you are sadly mistaken....
Stalkers, Thunderbolts, Firestarters, Wolverines, Dragons, Hunchbacks all have very viable builds and can Out DPS most clan mechs....IS is actually easier to run. They run much coolers and have quirks like you would not believe on some of them. Clan takes a bit more experience because the run much, much hotter and have tons and tons of hard locked equipment, like engines, DHS, JJ"s on some mechs and pods, MASC, Hardwired BAP, Flamers (which was since removed).
Just some FYI, its not a insta win when you get in most clan mechs, TBR's, DWF's, SCR's certain WHK builds and the mighty ACH are all great but outside the holy trinity and a few out-liners they are much, much, much tougher the get used to and less forgiving. Not to mention they have less diversity in the builds then IS mechs by a loooong shot.
