It happened to me several times. I think it might have been possible in BW, but BW2 is just too much. Maybe one of you can prove me wrong? Possibly raise a point I hadn't thought of.

Keldeo is not exceptionally hard for stall to deal with, and is in fact not even one of its worries. Celebi, Amoonguss, Roar CM Latias, Cresselia in sun, SpD Jellicent, SpD Dragonite (if Keldeo doesn't have HP Ice), RestTalk Gyarados (if Keldeo doesn't have Sub and HP Electric or if Gyara uses Roar and Keldeo doesn't have HP Electric), and even Toxic Tentacruel (if Keldeo doesn't have Sub and HP Electric) are all options that stall has to deal with Keldeo. I will agree with you that Kyurem-B is one of stall's biggest problems, but there are ways to deal with it. Any physical or physically mixed version (CB, Scarf and Mixed with max Atk) is walled by physically defensive Jirachi and Ferrothorn (the latter needs rain in order to avoid the 2HKO from HP Fire). Chansey walls any specially mixed Kyurem-B without Outrage, while Perish Song Celebi deals pretty well with SubHone Claws D-Tail Kyurem-B, as long as it switches in on time. There are other ways to deal with it, but those are the most solid that i can think of.
Finally, don't let what other people think about stall let you down. If people that don't like stall consider you to be a prick or something, that's their fault and the best thing you should do is to ignore the chat. I also assure you that you can ladder to the top with a stall team, as a lot of participants in this project have proved, such as Kidogo and Princess Bri.
