I didn't get it wrong, what you wrote is exactly what I meant. How many times have we seen a thread pop up where someone says that Assaults are the hardest class to play, followed by a Very Good Player "correcting" them by stating that actually, Lights are? They're not, they might be the worst performing class but that might well be because they attract the most inexperienced players. Assaults have a much higher skill ceiling, especially now that spawns can be random. My Flea and Grinner have w/l over 2 and k\d over 3, none of my Assaults have that. My average MS in lights is 20-30 points higher.
Based on what I've seen in game and on the forums I find that unlikely. Seems like they are mostly drawn to the bigger mechs. And if that's the case then assaults must do really good with experienced players since they have the highest avgms even with others bringing the scores down. And in my experience it seems like that checks out since assaults can pull off big damage often, and avoid low damage games pretty easily.
