Stall should never be seriously used in BW2. Tornadus-T and Thundurus on their own would be enough to say this but now with Terrakion getting SR, Haxorus getting Aqua Tail / Superpower, Deo-D teams still running around, Keldeo, and Genesect, it's not going to work unless you have complete weather control all of the time and a counter to whatever Deo-D they have (you can't have both reliably in BW2). Even then, Thundurus and Haxorus don't have many troubles taking out multiple walls before they go down. Stall would need Excadrill and / or Giratina to try to compete with offense. It's not going to simply adapt and be done with its troubles.
