So the map looks like it will be locked in for all matches as Stienr Colosseum for this event. So all we really need is mech ideas for matches now.

Ooh! I just got an idea. Both bring the 1 guass shadowcat build with Zero armor and play "dodgeball"

I think you should do a draft mode for weight class/map. So One player decides weight class, other player decides map, alternating. Once a Weight class and map is played, it cannot be used again. Randomize who gets 1st pick.

As Example:

Game 1: Grus gets 1st pick, He chooses mediums. R4zen gets to choose map now, and picks....Canyon.
Game 2: R4zen gets to choose mechs, he can't choose mediums, so he picks...assaults. Grus decides to pick....Terra Therma.
Game 3: Assuming the series isn't over as a 2-0, Grus now gets to pick mechs again (but only has choice of lights or heavies)

I think you get the idea.

we are going to be doing something really close to this.

You guys are going about this all wrong -

Only mechs you can take are mechs played in the final rounds of MWOWC. You agree on a weight class, you each pick and build an exact mech from that list.

People talk about how that sort of 'meta mech' is so totally OP but in reality the heat issues, accuracy required to use effectively and need for positioning to use effectively is a huge limitation on their performance.

Let's see you guys rock it out in comp queue meta, 1 v 1. Derp mechs in a 1 v 1 is not as entertaining as you'd think - watching people who do not play at a comp level try to manage comp builds is its own sort of awesome.

well i didnt watch that match so post a list of builds and we will see.

I like this idea. Might steal it for the next MaZr Invitational.

Not difficult - I run 1HVYLL/6ERMED HBRs there pretty much every time.

Caustic w/ECM and stealth armor. No limit on class or loadout, but YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TURN OFF STEALTH ARMOR. Override is allowed.

Also, what was the cause of this dust up between you and Grus?

If one of the players have Thanatos with reinforcement package though, since TNS-5S is the only dual gauss stealth armour mech in the game, it should probably not be allowed unless they both have it.

Stock Hunchbacks would be fun.
