    Probably he forgot to put the weapons back I think. That, or he get hit with the bug that rips some of the equipment off your mech.
    Got hit by that before, was not pretty. I though PGI fixed that already in the recent patch.

    A quartet of them from yesterday:

    LRM40 Highlander!

    LRM40 Stalker...with 2 TAGs!

    LRM30 Catapult...though I think this may be stock?

    The only reason I post this is...well...why the single MG?

    I kinda understand running with a Tag since this is one of the worst chassis to level so grabbing assists probably helps the grind, but why the SLas?

    Because Tag doesn't qualify for assists. The SL is there for fly bye assist generating.

    Competition or lance setup mech I guess. Been stuck with people like that all last night before I gave up and walked away when they crashed the server.

    Fudgebuckets...

    I didn't grab a screenie of it, but I saw an FS9-H with an AC/2 the other day. I am shamed. I should have capped that for stupidity.

    Wow, this guy really had his mind set on LRMs. :D

    Notice the lack of armor . . . anywhere!

    But hey, he was still at 97%! ;) No TAG though...does that mean no cAP too?

    Actually 6xLRM15 +1800 ammo and you still get 5.5tons left. He may have a cAP or some DHS, or more ammo.

    Oh I was teamed with this artform during pug.

    I can see that in group queue if you have a dedicated spotter. If you want the missile hardpoints on the Summoner you lose the Energy ones so can't take a tag. With the cAP and the minimum range its not desperately bad I'd say. TBH thinking about it none of the clan mechs I've seen this competition have used Tag just a cAP and usually quad ERML.

    l see similar builds during the tournaments each time... even saw some scary 6 x LRM15 clan builds (MDD?) this time. Remember thinking "WTF?!??!?!?" when i saw a LRM 90 on TT for the first time...... and making sure to hug cover.

    I have an Lurm only Summoner as well. Good fun from time to time,...

    He is using 3 of his 5 missile hardpoints. In this case he can just move those lrm on one side, and put some energy weapon/tag on the other arm.
    In fact he spend half the game running around with no weapon at all, and we lost 12 to 11 cause of that.

    As for the lrm90 maddog, there is not enough DHS to make it work. You have better results going with 6xlrm10. Better yet a 4xlrm15 with that 10% cooldown quirk.

    In fairness I wouldn't use them... but then I don't use LRM's except for occasionally levelling a new mech. :)

    This has got to be the single worst Cicada build I've ever seen. Note the 40.5 MAX speed...

    Best guess:

    You at least had the presence of mind to go XL. He flat out said it was a std100...
