He's actually one of the smallest and lightest mechs in the arsenal, so hand to hand isn't his specialty, but running and delivering considerable damage is. Think of him in terms of surprise and shock, BLAST, then runs off to hide behind a building. Then if you chase him around there, he'll maul you with his laser gatling.... All fun. He's one of the mecha I'm yet to play in the game, but I WANT to.
