Yea, Poppy told me the same thing when it first started, and I'm also excited that we're actually testing these clauses out. I probably should have re-phrased that the views posted in the previous post wasn't really my own stance, but probably the stance of the large majority of Smogon players, who like controlled, minimal-luck environments.

As far as potential broken strategy goes, I can possibly see Dual Screen be used to make these bulky mons even bulkier, allowing to throw out OHKO moves more profusely. Trick Room may also be a nice support if one can squeeze it in there.

Just a side note, but Gliscor gets Guillotine, so it can OHKO mons immune to EQ. Gliscor still does nothing to Skarmory, though.
