Let's take the tankiest Mech in the game and crush into the enemies firing lines like a juggernaut. The Atlas D-DC is a perfect Mech to lead pushes and break the morale of your foes. It not only has a lot of armor but also firepower and on top of that ECm which helps you getting into position before you start to wreak havoc.

This build has 2 main purposes:
1. Soak up damage so that your team can freely fire at the enemy
2. Pump out big alpha strikes with the AC/20 and the SRMs combined

The most important thing when pushing though is that you have to make sure that your team is ready as well. If you just rush in on your own without any backup or firepower to take your foes down you will die in a blazing fireball of doom.

Additional thoughts on the loadout:
1. I like to have a big engine in my Assault Mechs to keep up with the PUG racers
2. Only fire the autocannon and short range missiles when you are face to face. The medium lasers produce too much heat in a brawl
3. Don't forget to torso twist after you shot your big alpha. Just wait for the weapon cooldown and then get back in again

Loadout:
1x AC/20
3x SRM6+Artemis
2x Medium Laser
AMS
ECM
Engine: STD350
