Ok. I tested out a few battles with my stall/semi-stall team on the Suspect ladder, and I had quite success. I won 16/20 battles (2 of the battles had CH that changed the game and the other 2 I was outplayed outright IIRC). I noticed that without Mence as a means to break stall, my team has been wondrous. I really don't like this new metagame, since stall might be able to actually thrive now. Very slow-paced games suck.

However, I also noticed an increase of Roserade leads as well. I'm surprised that I don't see Ape as much as I expected. I might also test Torterra and Raikou in this meta, because it looks like they might have success now.
