Congrats for getting HoF, well deserved! I totally get what you mean about criticals, as you can lose a game that you didn't deserve to, just because the RNG will screw you eventually when dragging out the game for so many turns. But don't get disapointed and keep trying, i am sure you can do even better!
It would also be nice if you could answer the questions that i have in the OP for those that get into HoF, so that we can understand better how your team works, and maybe offer some heplful advice.

All that speed is not needed. Usually all you need to do is speed creep a little, to outspeed standard defensive Politoed that may run 4 or 8 Speed. Outspeeding Heatran is a possibity too, but you lose out on too much bulk imo.And all Scizor are either running 8 Speed, or max Speed, so speed doesn't help with this bug.
Btw i have been using Scarf Gothitelle in my team and i can say that i am impressed. The moveset is Psychic / Tbolt / T-Wave and Trick. Gothitelle acts as Scarf Tyranitar, except that it can trap anything, and can't deal so well against Lati@s. You remember the part that stall teams can't cover anything? That's were Gothitelle comes into play. For example my team has problems with Torn-T, as i have no solid counter to it. That's why i use U-turn Celebi, to lure Torn-T in and go to Gothittele, removing it from the rest of the game. Gothitelle also helps against Deo-D, Terrakion, and any spin blocker. I recommend you guys use it too it is amazing!
EDIT: Please guys when abandoning your alt and chosing a new alt, please update your first post, or else i might miss it. It is still easy to find it, but after a bit it will get difficult to keep track of them if we don't keep them organized.
