Hard question really. Lots that I hate with good reasons (to me), but any that I hate with no good reason... Hmm, I actually don't think I am mean enough to do that lol. Seriously can't think of a single example.

Maybe the MadIIC because it is so strong I had to buy it? But that's a good reason really..

Could be worse. USS Red Rocket IIC ready to go.

Could be even worse. Yesterday someone called an Urbie a giant tampon. The day I see a red Urbie on the field I will go voluntarily out of bounds

Poor Urbie. As if being generally referred to as a "trash can" wasn't enough

Hunchback IIC. I just...hate them. Haaaaaaaaaaate. No idea why, there's nothing wrong with them.

If you've spent any amount of time in any Knockoff MK2 worship thread, you'll know exactly why I dislike it.

At first, I thought I had no such Mech. But reading hi spost, I immediately thought "this! Exactely this!".
So I'm with Requiemking :-D.

Any mech that has a gun arm, that is best built using just torso-mounted weaponry or mechs with symmertrical gun arms built asymmetrically just drives me up the ******* walls.

SRM Centurions, Enforcer 4R, Urbanmech, EBJ (C), MX90, Nova or Summoner with PPCs in the side torsos. Warhammer in general.

Totally understand that they're good but good lord it's such a travesty to have these mechs end up balanced around the hardpoints that were for secondary armaments on the canon mechs.

Yesterday I had a Jagermech DD in my team with 6MG in the high arm hardpoints and 2 ER-PPC in the waist hardpoints...


On topic: for no good reason...I think that would be the Ice Ferret. that running crossbreed of a fridge and a microwave just begs to get vaporized.

All of the clan mechs because I've always hated the way FASA the clans. They went from being pro-Republic to Stalinists. It basically was a slap in the face of Aleksandr Kerensky and his reasons for leaving the IS.

[kapusta11]

Grasshoppers, hideous model, wobbly animations. I wish it was removed from the game.

[Juodas Varnas]

Anything and everything Clan.

[LordNothing]

shadow hawks, im always mistaking them for assault mechs. your in your locust you think its a battlemaster or banshee because it kind of looks like one from the side, you get up close and it turns and blasts you with srms and ballistics. not a fun time. im getting better at recognizing them, but on more than once i made a tactical error by assuming it was an assault mech.

Ravens - I just never recovered from disliking them from the days of wonky hit boxes, warping and deadly streak missiles.

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.

[chucklesMuch]

Gargoyles... they are just so ugly, and not in a good way.

[Bud Crue]

Wolverines.

The loyalty was a nightmare to level. Got a Quarantine from an event and it was just as bad. Bought another to finish the set.

HATED them with the red hot intensity of a thousand suns. Hated them so much that I had PGI remove the Loyalty and the Hero from my account and sold the other. Only mechs I never regretted dumping. No Idea why they were so bad for me, because I certainly have a lot of bad mechs.

Never! I love those hideous things.

any mech that is "meta"

Night Gyr. Frikkin' bowling ball head. If the thing got any uglier I'd have to slap myself for looking at it when I shoot it.

ACH, LCT.

Nothing like catching one of these fellers standing still for a second peeking over a hill far away. Always extra-satisfying to put a pair of Gauss rounds through them.

I'll go first.

I just cannot bring myself to like the Stormcrow. Why? Honestly, I cannot even tell you... It's clearly a potent mech with lots of possibilities but there is just something about the mech that makes me want to burn it with fire.

So who else has an irrational dislike of a mech for no good reason?

Sadly.... I have started to hate the Warhammer..... which, in TT is my favorite mech. Why? Because of the armless abominations that MWO's tryhard playerbase has turned it into.

#SayNo2T-RexGimphammers

Also, the Arctic Cheetah. I hate it simply because I feel it's Samus styling is totally at odds with the MWO Aesthetic and it just doesn't fit.

The Marauders. Maybe it's the rear end, which is odd, as I am normally rather partial to a trunk filled with an excessive amount of junk.

Yeah...MWO Marauder is up there for me. Too oddly stiff and wide. Alex doesn't swing and miss often, but his homage to Shimmering Sword's MAD is a total miss for me, for all the reasons SS's original was. Too fat, bulky and clunky to fit the feel, look and lore descriptions of the traditional TT Marauder.

Trebuchet -- those pretentious ********.

Summoners -- One trick ponies.

Funny, I love Trebuchets and Summoners. I always disliked Timberwolves. I think people think they are good because they are supposed to be.
