Mace used to be op once upon a time already. I recommend reading some of the older balance discussion threads about it.

The solution was to nerf its acceleration, break and turn rates. However these values got slowly increased in the newer patches until the current day where Mace suddenly became relevant again. It might as well be whacked with same kind of nerfs again then if there isn't enough developer mana to finally rework the unit into something more interesting and appropriate for the riot role.

I personally find Mace to be an extremely boring unit to use. Its slow and there is next to no micro involved when using it. Its just a pure dps dispenser with pretty much no room to outplay it (even thunderbirds die to its lasers).

Also @Anarchid a part of this issue is that the Mace monospam also beats... the rest of the hover factory. So its not only the case of rovers and tanks not being able to compete against hovers. Its also about the mirror balance as well.
