Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Fighting coverage really only makes a difference for one specific mon, if we're to axe fire coverage, I think we should leave aura sphere in there for the Kingambit matchup.
I don't see a reason to deviate from clangorous soul when stats were designed around it. Stats weren't designed around...

140 tankiness is a lot to ask for without specific hits you're looking to live to be honest, but I do like where your head is at. There is also something to say about the PT limit being based around getting ohko'd by a non-super effective hit from Kingambit, or a super effective but uninvested...
The BSR penalties don't seem to have any impact actually, the overall BSR limit is so high, if I ride all the limits while also staying within the total tankiness limit, the BSR hits a little above 565. It would probably make most sense to lower the BSR limit to 565, and increase individual...
A high special sweepiness limit is of course ideal for a special sweeper, but with an effective +2 SpA / +1 Speed to work with it doesn't need to be *that* high. If we are outspeeding booster valiant, offensive counterplay is largely already off the table, so a limit set in place to preserve...
This post fully encapsulates how I feel about clangorous soul. We've voted in ways that I think warrant clangorous soul more and more. I think it's crucial to determine whether we are using clangorous soul or not before getting into the stats stage.
Coverage in general is necessary, and this...
Unburden is one of the most effective ways to encourage the use of our favorite consumable. Should be mutually exclusive with clangsoul, but allows for 4 attacks unlike clangorous soul should we need the coverage. The ability to get +1 SpA and +2 Speed out of an attacking move is exciting to say...
Abilities that synergize with Throat Spray activation or generally aid in lategame cleaning capabilities are of course very beneficial to the CAP. I do think it might be important to clarify the direction we want to go in regards to clangorous so or not. Some abilities can go either way, a few...
