Pheonix Hawk. Just hate it. I hate the design. I hate the builds loadouts. And yeah for
No good reason either. Just one of those things. I have tried piloting it many times
But it's always just crap. I don't like it lol. I'm sure other pilots can do well in it but not me.

Oxides and jenner iic rocking srms racks piss me off to the point of rage quitting. Probably because there is no penalty for ramming into an assault that can't aim low enough to hit you.

So IMO Piloting a Jenner takes no skill what-so-ever so thats my kryptonite.
would love to see knockdown brought back.

Gargole. It's a good brawler with decent armor and fast for a assault but IDK I just don't like it.

Will have to voice Stormcrow as well. Could never get into one, no matter what. Just... felt weak. Like I couldn't spread damage. In my HBK IIC I can spread and in the huntsman I can, but not the crow.

Battlemasters are a chassis I haven't been able to enjoy. They are some of the few Inner Sphere mechs that most players still consider within the meta. I know why I should do well in it: Its reasonably fast for an assault, it has high weapon mounts and is fairly tanky with its giant gorilla arms. But I never feel like I can run it to full potential.

I guess I'm just too much of a medium pilot, though on an amusing note I do far better in a Banshee which is larger, slower and the 3M has similar hardpoints. Yet I pilot even a Zeus or Highlander (arguably "worse" mechs) for more damage than the Battlemasters.

So...screw you Battlemasters!

I hate the Yen Lo Wang with a burning passion... but I have a very good reason since it is involved in 3 of the top 5 (#1,#3, #4) mech fights in the novels. Hanse Davion wishes he had Plot Armor that thick!!!!!!!

It is funny, I hate it too. The really funny thing is I love the CN9-AH, I like the combo better, and never could get used to the center torso laser mounts in the Wang.

IMO that looks more like the basilisk quad than a scorpion Posted Image,

The quadrupedal Basilisk was created by The Society. Completely different from the bipedal version, this variant had a higher top speed. A close-combat specialist, it's equipped with a single SRM-4 with ten reloads, and a set of claws, whipping tail, and head spikes. For protection it carries Electric Discharge ProtoMech Armor which can easily disrupt control systems in other battlefield units.[6] Considering the source of the design, it is unlikely that any will be found in the Homeworld Clans toumans once they have rebuilt.[7] BV (2.0) = 258[8]

Centurions for me. I have SRM medium brawlers (Griffin) and AC20 medium brawlers (Hunchback), but for some reason I can't get into the Centurion. It's made worse by the fact that I have 2 reward Centurions that I CANT SELL! Seriously, just let me sell those.

The Timberwolf. I hate that thing with a passion. Purely because out of most of the heavy and assault mechs, that is the one that really stood out to me and used to give me so much trouble to dance around as a light pilot. Grrr Timberwolf!Posted Image

I have to second the Battemaster but for slightly different reasons that I've espoused several times elsewhere... It just looks wrong. As much as I love 99.9% of what Alex has done, I just can't get behind his iteration of the Battlemaster.

Especially with the brilliant GCL visage.

Long story short, our present iteration just doesn't hold its' smoke...

I'd buy this in s heartbeat. Posted Image
