In 3066 he tetore ared through the Arenas to win the Class V championships and earn his nickname Hurricane from Solaris VII fight commentators. Thanks to his Colossus and his tactics, with his unconventional use of the arm shields to defend other sections of his 'Mech surprised his opponents. His first match during that 3066 championship is well remembered by the audience. Mike was paired against a Bromley Stables Cerberus and his tactics stunned everybody. He weathered a storm of Gauss rifle fire by using its arm Shield to degrade the heavy weapon’s striking power, and closed the range, catching the Cerberus' pilot unprepared for the return fire thanks to the Colossus' additional range given by the 'Mechs' X-Pulse Lasers. He was able to land hit after hit and also exploit the relatively weak armor that protected its opponent's heavy weapon, blowing both arms from the Cerberus and stunning the MechWarrior with neural feedback.
