This is an excellent point alexwolf. It actually brings me to my next question, would you consider "The Great Southern Trendkill" as a stall team if I swapped out Swords Dance Gliscor for a
Calm Mind Sigilyph? If so, then we can come to the conclusion that its the TYPE of offensive Pokemon that separates the semi-stall teams from the balanced ones. This is why I suggested that we should put limitations/restrictions on the 2 offensive Pokemon. The rules I posted earlier would ban SD Gliscor because it violates all three limitations; it has a stat-boosting move with EVs in Speed AND Attack, it uses a stat-boosting move that increase TWO offensive stats at once, and it has an attack-boosting item. If "TGST" had CM Sigilyph along with Scarf Jirachi, then it would pass as a semi-stall team in my eyes and under the rules I suggested, just like Tabloo and it's two offensive Pokemon do.

I agree. There are too many smart users on Smogon for us not to be able to define a play-style.
