*Now where did I put that bowl of popcorn...?*

I don't think there is one best mech... it depends on how you want to play and what you like, it's not going to be the same for everyone.

Thunderbolt 5SS for IS. Even though it has shite hitboxes, quirks make it godly.

Timber Wolf for Clan. I don't think it needs explaining.

I dunno. Any IS heavy that can mount 3 UAC5s can still wreck face pretty well in this game.

Best Heavy for competitive teams? Timberwolf and Hellbringer. Tourney finalists agree.

See any Thunderbolts here?

Tiberwolf for Clan (beacuse it's a Timberwof, duh!)

Thunderbolt for IS (my favorite is the 9SE, but the 5SS is probably stronger), because quirks.

Do you guys remember when Thuds were considered crap?

IS: Thunderbolt, because 2 variants got good quirks.


Clan: Mad Cat, because it's a well-designed mech that doesn't have a crippling construction flaw like most mechs seem to (i.e. no bad hitboxes or bad engine, has Endo, etc.).

However, the Loki and Cauldron Born are pretty close to the Mad Cat's level, so using either of them instead isn't much of a loss (sometimes their higher mounts can be advantageous, too).

Yeah, without quirks, it was just a fat 65 tonner.

And to think - once upon a time, calling anything other than a Shadow Hawk the best medium in the game was considered insane.

I'm really tired of hearing the pathetic excuse that clan players are just better, which is why they have higher stats.

When the pros play, they gravitate towards clan mechs for very obvious reasons. Above are the current proven metamechs. Pros don't pick mediocre chassis to bring into a competitive environment. They bring only the best.

Anyone who tells me Timbers and Loki's aren't the best are just stubborn.

On a side note, it's also obvious that Firestarters are the best light. No one disputes that one. I'm curious to see how the Cheeto ends up in the competitive scene.

That's limited to Jagermechs and 1 hero mech though, and UAC15 means taking an XL engine on a mech with pretty fragile side torsos. Not that it's bad, but I don't think that's good enough to be considered capable of "wrecking face" anymore.

ThunderWub and Timby. Although Hellbringer definitely brings a differently flavor and should be considered.

Jager with 3 uac5 DOES reck face. It has uac5 quirks that make it a real monster.
