I see no clan Mechs in the Championship games. Is there some valid reason for this? It should be called The IS Championship since Clan Mechs have been excluded from the games. Very poor decision in my opinion.

Because Level 1 3039 stuff does sooooo well against Clans going all-out...

I wonder how much of a handicap it would take to have Level 1 "stock mode" Inner Sphere beat "stock" Clanners with MWO aiming.

There isn't any kind of aiming that would level the playing field between IS stock and Clan stock.

Making SHS and standard structure not terrible would be a good start, though.

Can't buff SHS enough to make it as competitive as DHS in MWOWC stock mode, without completely making SHS OP in regular matches.

There is just no sense for PGI to try to balance the game based on the stock mode.

SHS definitely needs a buff and SS could probably use a buff for reasons entirely unrelated to 3025 stock gundams.

Good luck with that though, seeing how DHS and Endo are prime C-Bill sinks when tweaking out new mechs, and F2P game companies love their virtual currency sinks.

Personally I already posted plenty of ideas on buffing SHS and SS, but after years PGI is still deaf to it.

So how do we get Clan champion mechs when they are not allowed to compete? Are they just fake champions?

Champion mechs are just trials made for the space poor. The opposite of champions.

Its not the Championship games. Its just a marketing trick for MW5, nothing more.
