*Juggernaut is a Tank mech. It is the third mech a player obtains after the Lancer, and it is most known for its previous name 'Ronin' in the official commercial video for Mech Arena.*

## Information

Juggernaut is classified as a Heavy mech with the role of "Tank". It is classified as a medium energy tank type mech. It has the 2nd highest max HP of any mech (Brickhouse is #1), which combined with its personal shield makes Juggernaut a lumbering healthpool.

## Upsides

It has a powerful ability which acts as a personal portable shield which has its own health and absorbs all the damage given while it is active until the shield breaks or the shield time runs out. This shield is timed with a cool down period. This shield is different from that of the Ares which is one directional and can defend other ally Mechs as well. On the other hand, the juggernaut has the largest health pools in the game and has decent energy capacity. The personal shield is also one of the only true hardcounters against mortars, since its omnidirectional.

## Downsides

Juggernaut's insane toughness comes at a price: its speed. With only 16 km/h you cant expect to rush in or capture control points. So while it excels at countering scouts, it is almost impossible to retreat when caught in a pickle. Even though it might seem you're invincible, two Arc Torrent 12s will still shred your mech. Rocket mortars are also highly effective when your ability is on cooldown. Guardian and zephyr can shut you down and kill you with relative ease. If you get hit with a couple of decent Javelin racks or Helix Racks; you're done for.

## Strategy

### Using:

As with any mech, your health is valuable. Don't waste it by standing in the open. Juggernaut can a be highly valuable teammate by soaking your opponents damage when pushing. Juggernaut is very good at obliterating scouts and other low HP mechs, by simply outlasting them and taking very little permanent damage from the encounter. only use the ability right before a confrontation, since it might otherwise wear off without any value from other mechs firing to destroy it.

### Countering:

Juggernaut is a hard mech to counter, so take advantage of its weaknesses. Only engage when its shield is down or when your forced to. Using tank killers like Cheetah and Stalker or negators like Guardian is generally your best bet when facing a Juggernaut. Using high dps high exposure time weapons like carbines is recommended. Javelin Racks work wonders, since you're able to destroy their shields with only two Jav4s, and deal a bit of damage. Another good weapon is Arc torrents, since they just chew up the shield in no time.

## Builds

These are the best builds for Juggernaut:

* Arc torrent: it works by simply outlasting your opponents, since arcs have the highest dps of any weapon in the game, while you have the most health.
* Disc launchers: Most likely the most solid build on any tank, being able to hit opponents everywhere, even behind cover.
