Yes, that is also my favourite build for the Mist Lynx. I've used it a lot. But I think that if I had to fight myself with the Mist Lynx, using any other mech in the game, I would win. Against the Locust 1E, the Mist Lynx isn't fast enough to maintain distance on the ground. When it jumps, it loses speed, especially as it lands. Sooner or later, the Locust 1E will be in very close range with 6 MLs or SPLs, and then the Mist Lynx loses 50% of its firepower in a single alpha.

1v1 is a different story. not all mechs are for 1v1s.
Every mech has its own weaknesses. Some mechs have a couple of advantages.
In a real match, the lynx has an advantage against heavier enemies, its hard to reach for them. and you can pump 28 damage from as far as 500m each time you jump.

Hah! I laugh at you all with scorn! Real men try to elite an Atlas-K!!!

On a serious note, you'd have to be some sort of extreme masochist to try to elite an Atlas-K, it's painfully obsolete.

Lets see if you can laugh at this:

Lets see.

Pre-Quirks, Pre-CLAN. (DOA or Underperforming)
Locust, Commando except ECM, Spider-5V, Jenner except -F (firestarter took its spot)
Kintaro, Trebuchet, Blackjack-1X, Wolverine, Vindicator, Hunchback-4SP
Quickdraw, Orion, Dragon
Atlas-K/RA, All Awesomes, Victor(post JJ/PPC nerf)

Pre-Quirks, Post Clan (DOA)
Everything ISphere except Firestarter + lagshield

Post-Quirks Post Clan up to Wave-3 latest Q pass
Spider-5K, Commando ALL, Locust-1M/3S/3V, Firestarter-H/Ember, Panther-9R/-10P, Jenner except -F, Raven-4X
Trebuchet, Shadowhawk, Griffin except Sparky, Blackjack except -1X, Vindicator, Centurion-D(Lb10x), Enforcer-5P, HunchBack-4H & 4SP.
Orion, Quickdraw 4H, Dragon except 1N, Jagmech Firebrand, Catapult A-1, Grasshopper.
Awesome, Victor, Atlas, Highlander, Kingcrab-0000, Zeus.

Most consistently bad IS mechs.
Orion, Vindicator, Grasshopper, Trebuchet, Commando, Victor, Awesome, Quickdraw, Highlander, Spider 5v, Atlas.

And special guests, Just about every single Hero Mech for IS, except TDK-commando, maybe Raven-Huggin, Locust Pirates Bane, Yen-lo-Wang, and Hunchback-GI hanging in there.

This is just my opinion though.

Clan side DOA?
Mist Lynx, Adder, Kitfox
Nova
Maddog, Summoner
Gargoyle

BJ-1x was never underperforming or doa and the Ilya was the best hero in the game, post quirks still good but others made out better.
