I pilot an 2xAC20 King Crab. Any thoughts on how to beat them?

I haven't played a game in div3 but div1 has similiar problem with 6xAC2 Annihilator, really difficult to beat without having exactly same.

6xAC2s are reasonably accurate, allowing them to do about as much damage on a single location as you can. They also have vastly more range and higher velocity and none of the ghost heat issues.
Your problem is that the 6xAC2 build is flat out better than the 2xAC20 build. The 'fix' for this is either buffing the firepower on your build or otherwise changing it up to be more competitive with the longer range, higher DPS, just as sustainable build your'e fighting.

I wasn't specific : On Solo yes I rush with my Mad Cat II (4MED pulse 4x SRM6ARTE) and I can reach them to break the center torso. On Groups though 2 crabs hitting same target makes that impossible. Matches end on spawn point for them. A solution is 2xATM 12 but you cant make a build only against crabs. The division is broken and people are stat padding on an exploit. (cause that is an exploit of terrain and distance.)

if you are running 2 AC20 then you shouldnt be having trouble with a 6x AC2 crab. I run one (6 uac 2 actually) and my bane is
1.Faster mechs with missles on open maps
2. other Assaults with higher caliber AC's (such as your 2x ac 20)
3. fast mechs with JJ in Caves or Mech Factory
my crab vs yours you would have advantage but it would come down to who got first solid hit and who had better accuracy.

AC2 trumps AC20, unless you get into brawl range.

Exploiters?
How are they exploiting, exactly?

A good player in a King Crab runs the table in Div 3. Maybe a poptart Scat on most maps.
