I use it for faction Play, for me it has no real use for Quick Play
mechs that have a certain role, and need a smaller list to look through, I use favorites, when you have many mechs, and many pilots out there have more then 100 mechs to choose from, breaking that list down makes it faster to finding that mech.
on my alt account(s), The mechs not fully skilled yet, I don't have many mechs, and I want to make sure i can get all the x2 done on mechs still needing XP for Skill points, it's the only purpose I use favorites
for making C-Bills, I press the hero tab
in faction you sometimes only have a 50sec to make changes to your deck, having mechs ready for faction, and in Favorites, speeds that process up
hope I understood your query correctly
