I am watching the Grand Finals at the moment, and I am keen to find out what mechs the two final teams are using. Does anyone know where I might be able to find the build list for both EON Synergy and EmpyreaL?
I recommend sending them very strongly written letter in an envelop postmarked in and to Canada for a good and well written response. I'm afraid I can't help you with this endeavor, as I am currently on the boarder, and the agents here know me by name; this is never a good thing. They have rubber gloves, and aren't afraid to use them!
I'll have to rewatch the finals, can't see them in real time. They're probably using dual gauss or erppc with supporting laservomit, if I'd have to guess.
I did see a lot of Clan mechs, and many lasers. But there were a few interesting choices that I would not have expected. There was a Night Gyr, which I wouldn't expect to be on a competitive list. There was also a Wolfhound, and a Commando (2x SRM4; 2x Flamers) that got swapped in a few times. There were also a few Summoners, which is one of my favourite mechs. So there's a bit of personal interest there. I keen to see how they built their Summoners - I've been seeing dual ERPPCs SMNs popping up more often lately.
Dragon-5N with triple UAC2 made an appearance. Commentators were appreciating the cross body shooting to make the arm hard to hit.
SMN-PRIME has the best ERPPC quirks, not bound to set-of-8. Though asymmetric should be possible for convergence too.
