Similar to the old forum, feel free to ask me anything. (I do reserve the right to not respond to some questions/give vague answers where applicable.)
Some quick FAQs I usually get:
Q: How much have you spent on SM?
A: 5 figures USD.
Q: Where do you live?
A: NY, USA.
Q: How old are you?
A: Mid 20s.
Q: Where do you work/what do you do?
A: I work in private equity for a firm on Wall Street. Private Equity is basically investing in companies, improving them, and then selling them (so basically investment banking + consulting). Feel free to learn more about it online!
Q: What's your name?
A: Sorry, I'm trying to keep my identity secret. (So that is why sometimes I may not answer some questions too clearly.)
Q: Do you have a YouTube channel?
A: Yes, you can view it here: https://www.youtube.com/c/CleverNameSM
Q: Can you give me tokens/items/accounts?
A: No.
Q: Are you a SM/TS/GG/Forum Mod/Dev/Admin?
A: No.
Q: Can you help me with builds?
A: I prefer giving build advice to Rank 1 players, as that's where I have the most experience. There should be a Build Help section on this forum; I'd recommend you go there to ask for help. I made a topic on Current Meta Builds - I always play the best build in the game.
Q: Why do you play SM/why did you spend so much?
A: SuperMechs for me is something I enjoy playing. I enjoy playing it not so much for the technical aspects, but it’s more of a nostalgic game for me as I played it when I was a bit younger and really enjoyed the game (and with nostalgia, comes happiness). I don’t remember why I quit, but when I found the game again, it’s really been great. I also really enjoy the community here, being able to be creative with builds, and having a close fight every now and then. =P 

Shameless plug, but this has to be one of hardest flexes to date =P

Lol you'll overtake dwight one day. Congrats !

This is true. I only do Mystique or Storm Paint 🙂

I think Valiant Sniper is fine as is. I believe most players play it for the energy drain component (versus damage - although that can do quite well if opponent is fully drained). With that being said, the proposed changes I think are too drastic (of a buff) for Valiant. 
(This "nerf" seems like a "buff" to me.)

For the trade of -30 energy damage in exchange for +12 regen damage and +60/88 electric damage (!!), I think the new Valiant would both be strong in energy damage, regen damage, and electrical damage. Additionally, the 12 regen damage somewhat has a "breakeven" point of ~3 turns (12*3 = 36 which is a bit more than 30 damage missed). So assuming Valiant is used and the match lasts more than 3 turns, the -30 energy damage with +12 regen damage generally results in net positive for the Valiant owner from original version. Plus, you don't even need to drain the opponent to do increased damage; as it's already raw damage (electric damage). I think the effect this change would have would make Valiant way too strong.
Perhaps a buff may be needed for Valiant (a very very small one), but I can't support OP's proposed changes. =P

Actually you're a bit late with your comment =P
4k mechs used to be viable, now it seems highest hp is about 3.6k for viable mechs in meta
My goal is to update this thread later today

Great, and I had used my LPV to myth something that was in META.  Just great.
In my opinion: if you buff something too much, you nerf other things.  This is an indirect nerf then.  All that time and effort I spent working on items that were META at the time, now gone to waste.  Great.
I'm trying not to be frustrated, but I spent a lot of time researching and trying to align my stuff with META so that I could try not to waste time improving items that have no future.
