I've had a surprisingly hard time getting this mech to perform. My previous record was ~780 damage, which is bad compared to expectations. I expected this mech would be like my MAD-9M but with harder-hitting backup weapons (2xRAC2 instead of 5xSL). But instead, this King Crab has just been kinda junk. I've been playing worse recently, but the mech has also underperformed.

This match, however, the mech did great. I think if we had pushed E3 together and if "Ghogiel" in the Night Gyr had joined us instead of backing off, i think we could have crushed the Assaults in E3 faster and that might have broken the momentum of their push which cleaned up our team. But it all worked out and was a fun and close match in the end.

I think i need to drop a ton of RAC2 ammo for MRM ammo. I ran out of MRM ammo but still had both active, and if i'd had another ton i'd have been able to kill the Griffin. The RAC2s are backup weapons, with the MRMs being the main show, so the ammo should reflect that. I'd more-prefer doing half-and-half but i can't fit that (the mech is maxxed slots without CASE).

BUG: At 03:18, i shoot 2xMRM40 and drop from 400 ammo to 320 (-80 ammo). This is normal and expected. My next MRM shot at 03:23 fires 2xMRM40 but i go from 320 ammo to 241 (-79). Why didn't all 80 missiles shoot? The rest of the match (before and after), firing 2xMRM40 shoots 80 missiles each time, except my very last shot at 04:51 has only 1 missile.
