What mechs in which division do you consider under performers?

What mech gives you the certainty that the match is going to be easy, no matter how it is build?

Since I almost only play div 2, I won't say anything about the other divisions. And in div 2 it's the Summoner that makes me almost ashamed for what's going to happen when I see my opponent in one of those handsome thundergods. There was only one fight against a Summoner steered by an excellent pilot where my Sporty Bear was destroyed, it was in the caves and it was a wonderful fight, close and good. But every other Summoner I ran into felt like playing cat and mouse (or: bear and salmon), just quicker. My first two or three metches in div 2 I tried the Summoner myself, but soon realized that it's the wrong division for my favorite mech.

Today I fought a guy with a W/LR of 0.08 in a 5xSRM4 SMN. At the end, one of my shoulders had red armor. I didn't even twist.

In Div 1, anything that isn't an Annihilator is underperforming.

My favourite clan lights - the Cougar and Puma are both stuck in D4... I can't imagine a build on either that can beat a 6AC2 Jager.

On that note, I can't even think of a build that might beat the 2LB10X Uziel from D7...

The Inner Sphere Hunchback. Just shoot off the hunch, end of story.

night gyr B in D2 is fairing well (for me) i only worry when i see a kodiak or anni. dual uac5/dual lbx10 seems to melt most of the competition. i would say warhammer underperforms in D2. havent had a single good match in one and wh is my go-to in QP.
