I think the J9 would give the Destroyer a run for its money. The only thing really in its way is your massive ion cannon, but the way to get around that while closing the distance would likely involve a curved running path to get behind you and then staying in your blind spot till in close range where your thick armor means nothing to J9 and his spray.But that is all betting on being able to avoid the ion cannon by staying away from your Frame's left side.Though if the Destroyer got the drop on J9 from afar I can see a one shot, one kill scenario if he punches though my chest and detonates all my canisters. I can see the same happening if her used those drill missiles on me.

You forget something, The DSP isn't specific to the left side. it just happens to be mounted there. and I'm useing Colham armour, not the standard rolled armour of every other mech. 
Just so everyone's aware;
Standard rolled armour is a alloy titanium-iron-aluminum metal rolled in to thin sheets and then layered one atop another with shock absorbing matirial between the layers, it's effective, tough, and cheep, capable of standing up to most weapons.
Colham Armour; 
Hardend ceramic plates shaped in to rounded deflecting panels layered one atop another built to deflect and misdirect attacks rather than absorb and withstand (on modern tanks these are about 3cm across, for the RP, I'm saying there 30cm, just for easy use), underneeth this deflective layer is a plating of a ceramic composite alloy meaning that any weapons such as shaped charges, KEP rounds or even shatter lighter rounds, (anything under full blow anti-frame) Directed Jet weapons (Such as missiles, Energy pulses or anything of that description) suffer from a 'shatter point' effect, as they damadge the ceramics, it does not break as metal would and this causes the energy or shockwave to be dispersed, furthering the effect, and very much lessening the power of any such weapons. and spreading it over the entire armour plate. This added to a Laminate armour layer underneath provides a massive amount of protection from almost any attack. 
There is however a downside; The armour isn't highly repairable, with Rolled armour you just take the plate off and smack a new one on. with Colham armour you actually need to replace the individual damadged Hex plates, which clearly has its issues. Thank god Alex has a hidden stash of the things somewhere.

Now, Acid, while very potant, does not (contrary to what films would have you think) melt through everything like some form of ichor or molten metal. Acid reacts with; Metals, Carbonates, Metal oxides, Organic matiral, and anything with a cellular structure (IE useing phospholipids) so, while your acid would RUIN any other mech in a few seconds, due to the ceramic nature of the Colham armour the acid would be absorbed by the first layer of the plating and probably be catalysed with any hydrocarbons in the atmosphere to produce a alcohol. That is assuming your using hydrochloric acid. if you using sulphuric acid it'd produce sulphur dioxide (yay, yellow smoke screen!) and if you were using a organic acid such as a carboxylic acid, you wouldn't have enough acidic power to melt through metal.

It'd still be fun to see a fight, though I don't intend to have Alexander be put up against other players to often. was rather hoping to put together some sort of ramshackle team
