What Are You Affraid Of?

I am not claiming Cheetahs are OP or anything like that. I think they have such good characteristics that they compensate for poor players more than just about any other mech. As such seeing a poorly driven Cheetah is a rarity, and thus they are a consistent and greater threat than many other mechs. Its just that when I see a Cheetah on the other team, my impulse thought is that the Cheetah is a greater threat to me and my side's chances of winning more than any other mech. I feel like if I kill a Cheetah (or even just leg it) I feel I have done more to help my team win than killing a Dire or Atlas on the other side. I think this fear is common and is a real big part of why so many fall victim of "gotta chase the squirrel" mentality.
What is your mech equivalent to the boogie man and why?

When there is someone on the other team who is also in an arctic cheetah -- more so if they get the foolish notion that going after me is a good idea...(we will both be taken out of the game regardless of who kills who)

I fear Blackjacks and Oxides still the most out of any mech, everything else i can usually handle. ACH are no easy mech to get rid of but if you start hitting there legs they usually run off and infd easier meat to pick on.

I'm in a light. The assaults die like unskilled plebes.
I'm in a medium and both the above happen.
I'm in a heavy. Ah well, at least I did well.
the one constant is me doing > most of the team. Most of the time.
On the occasions I don't have to carry harder, I really enjoy the game (damage more middle of the pack, everyone seems to have pulled on the big boy / girl pants and done their part).

I don't play the game or use the forums to get into flame wars over religion, government or conspiracy theories. Even though I do recognize the comedic value in them all. I know, I know, the level of discourse on any internet forum rarely rises above flame wars, etc. I got it. Nevertheless, can we try to stay on topic? Maybe just a wee bit of effort?
So, again I am trying to find out what mechs people really fear or just respect, and why. Perhaps others will find this topic engaging? If so we can discuss it. If not please allow the thread to die with dignity.
But don't hijack it just because you want to blather on about your personal view of Armageddon. Start your own [redacted] thread for that.
