Is there a compilation, of which mechs were used for the four MechCon 2018 Championships rounds ?

One's that no one in their right mind uses on the reg, unless they are hardcore stockibois

Anni 1A, Anni 1E
Hunchback-4P
Wolfhound-1.
Blacknight 7L?
Marauder
Awesome 8Q, AWS 8R or 8T
Locust-1V
Javelin 10F or 11A

not entirely complete or accurate but that was a number of them that I saw

And from what i hear no one did only 12 damage... progress!

Teams picked mechs with the best combo of hitboxs and quirks out of the box. Both teams used LRMs but both teams also admitting to hatting LRMs and only used them becuse Lurms are on so many stock builds.

The Annihilator seem to be the dominate Assault though the Stalker and Banshee 3S preformed admirably. The Awesome preformed better than I expected but I'm guessing that was the player more than the mech it self.

As most matches I watched happen to be Conquest, lights/fast movers determined the win. Naturally the Locust and Wolfhound seemed to be the 2 most aggressive choice of mech.

Oh ya I forgot about the stalker and the banshee
I found the choice to run the Stalker, a bit odd as it didn't fare very well in any of the matches.

Oh I almost forgot the best mech out of the bunch, the real MVP

derpy artillery strikes

Stalkers can soak up damage, unfortunately most stock builds are LRM carries so they have little more firepower than a Archer so Stalkers just ended up as meat shields for the lighter mechs capping.

I honestly forgot how well the Marauder tanked, it outlasted most assaults.
