I'm voting Lance. The variety of possible loadouts for a Crimson Lance trooper makes them adaptable to any possible situation, not only that, but the variety of the troops themselves make for a tough enemy to fight.

You've got the Defender whose only vulnerable point is his head or his back, the Engineer who can drop a turret for emergency cover/flanking scenarios, and the Royal Guard who are basically just tanks in purple armor. Between what I just mentioned and the elemental troops, their badass variants, NOT TO MENTION THE CRIMSON LANCE MEDIC who actually can tend to the wounded nearly instantly using his turret(Which can be redeployed in the event of it's destruction), it's truly a miracle the Lance can be stopped at all.

The Lance also have the use of devastators and their badass variants, the latter using homing missiles capable of turning on a dime. Not to mention General Knoxx and his mech.
