So VertigoSick, Fenrir_117, and myself were playing last night and I was sticking with Vertigo. A Bruiser happened upon us. We began Assaulting him assuming he would run. He didn't. When Vertigo started taking massive damage I green beemed him. Needless to say, the bruiser who only engaged Vertigo was killed. He then chatted, "Medic OP."
So let's look at this. He engaged two mechs by himself and lost, which is a pretty standard affair. Not many people do that and win. His best bet, were he to engage us was to fight me, but he didn't. Were it any other two mechs, do you think he would have made the same claim? No. He viewed me as unassuming and chose to engage. If he really believed the Tech was OP then why engage in the first place?
So there was a Vangaurx in turret mode as I rounded a corner. I figurex I could put some damage on him and then run when he started to come out of turret mode as he was turned away. I hit him and tried to turn to engage me. I took to the air and flew around behind him and continued to hit him. At about 1/3 health left he decided to get out of turret mode. The fight was already won. I bobbed and weaved and kept hitting him. I won. He chatted, "Tether beam is cheezy."
Were I a scout, zerker, raider, a g2 assault even and he tried to engage me the way he did, he would have gone down 15 seconds earlier than he did.
I've never heard anyone chat that the Tech is OP prior to an engagement... (by that I mean before the match has started. Only after there was an engagement where that person lost did they mention the Tech.) Ever. Not once. It's only after they got killed. Never have I had someone kill me and say, "man, killed that OP Tech."
To the above two examples, do not engage two mechs of sny description alone. It's not wise. If you get hit from behind, alone, and in turret mode, get out of turret mode and turn around. Many more experiencex like this have occured and they are the only times I hear people get vocal in game about the Tech.
