Are we talking about a true team? One that uses 3rd party comms to communicate? My team does all the time, I use my Ilya over a Cat every time. It fields 2 LL's and 2 LBX's, I shred thru armor on most mechs that my teammates have difficulty with and use them to help kill the things like the RaidCat you mentioned earlier. I think the only heavy mech my team doesn't use at all is the Dragon. The Jagermech will also be an effective counter to almost any Cat at distance, made more effective by either harassing lights or my Ilya. We're all smart enough to stay close enough to cover one another, or fast enough to get back to said cover if needed.
Another vote for Phract (most of them) over a Cat
I have both chassis mastered, my Ily is a go to mech, as is my 4X....mainly because I love flinging metal around.
