I ran my Gargoyles for the weekend; looks like I finished 15th for the mech. My best matches were with simple builds, the first one using the GAR-C left and right arms for the -30% UAC jam chance and 6 energy hardpoints then fitting a UAC20 and 6 ERSLs. It's feast or famine though; if the autocannon doesn't jam it'll wreck things quickly but if it does you're in trouble unless you're fighting a light or underpowered medium mech.
The second build used the GAR-D mech with the GAR-C right arm and the GAR-A left arm then fitted 12 ERSLs (left mouse controlling the left arm and CT lasers and the right mouse button controlling the right arm lasers). Funny enough, my best match with this build came on Alpine of all maps; 1191 damage and 6 kills most damage.
Another build that seemed to work decently, though not really my playing style, was taking the GAR-A right arm for its ERPPC quirks and running two ERPPCs along with some ERSLs. You can go with around four or so ERSLs, or use the GAR-D and fit two ESLs in the CT, then fit a left arm that has armour/structure quirks and use it as a shield. You just use the PPCs to pick away at range, with the small lasers as light mech defense.
