								| It's too easy. It's too easy to win with, and too easy to create variants for.

								| I dislike it because it's so dang overplayed. Anytime I have any player with clan mechs they always try to include at least one. 
 I like to blow them apart. Especially like to blow them apart with inferior designs and watch the player's reaction to it.

								| I must agree with Seraph. I dislike the Madcat because a lot of people I play use them.   
 They are every where it seems and it makes me feel even worse when I lose to them.

								| I like em as a rare treat on the battlefield. A bit like they were in Mechcommander 1, even though I had two Atlas' and an Awesome. There was something unnerving about them. 
 Dislikes, They are, as said before. Very overused. Other than that their great.

								| I've got mixed feelings about it's speed. 
 On the one hand, getting a chassis of that size moving at 5/8 means a huge, inefficient engine.   Comparing the Mad Cat  to the Nova Cat or the Night Gyr it suffers a definite disadvantage in armor and firepower.
 
 On the other hand the speed definitely gives a commander much greater tactical flexibility.  It also lets you mix heavies into medium stars to provide more backbone without sacrificing mobility.
