I play league 1, so some tips may not apply to lower ones. These are my opinions, and may not be shared by others.

1. Please do not mix up your weapon types, for example running a revoker and gemini. The combo is weak. There may be some elite players who do well, but not enough to account for the number I've see.

2. Top priority for league 1 is MODS. Mods all around. Legendary preferred, epic if you have to. You only need level 1 of each since they will be maxed for the match.

3. You are on a team. Act like it. Solo players lose matches.

4. Look at and consider the enemy mechs/weapons, as well as your teammates mech/weapon before the round starts. There is a specific way to play, depending on the combo.

5. Some mechs/weapons are naturally aggressive, and some naturally stand-off. If your team has both, the stand-off player should stay in the back and support the aggressive player, who should expect support. That said, it might make sense for the aggressive player to hold back a while and let the stand-off player do some damage before rushing in.

6. Your teammate is Eclipse. Most times, they will go off on their own, confident in the kill. There won't be coordination until they make their kill. Stay alive, try to engage who they are engaging.

7. Your enemy has Deathwalker. Kill the other enemy first while trying to ignore the Deathwalker without getting killed.

8. Your enemy has Revokers. The best defense against revokers is distance. Keep your distance and you'll have a chance.

9. Don't underestimate ANY mech with dual 16 weapons.

10. A tie is better than a loss. Sometimes just disengage and take the tie.
