252 SpA Life Orb Tornadus-T Hurricane vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Scizor: 270-320 (78.71 - 93.29%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock
252+ Atk Choice Band Technician Scizor Bullet Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Tornadus-T: 195-229 (65.21 - 76.58%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock
252+ Atk Choice Band Technician Scizor Pursuit vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Tornadus-T: 130-153 (43.47 - 51.17%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock
Go ahead and play chicken if you want. You have a greater chance of losing than Tornadus-T does. Plus you are now locked into Pursuit, allowing the opponent to switch into a set-up sweeper.

If politoad dies and ninetails or tyranitar change the weather, tornadus-t is effectively neutered. Even under the perfect conditions there are pokemon that can take a hit and OHKO back.

Please explain how Excadrill destroyed most of the metagame without sand. Also, without sun support, Gliscor, Jellicent, Gyarados, and Dragonite all had a good laugh at Blaziken's expense.
