This is a balanced team that focuses on setting up CM keldeo for a sweep. It has an unorthodox lead that I've come to like recently. Without anymore wait here's the team!
Dean:
This is my most common lead, It has the same role as sash chomp essentially except it has access to endeavor and out speeds most other leads. With it's amazing mixed offensive stats it can also hit almost any mon really hard. I decided to try and bring this thing back after it's long hiatus from Competitive play. It does a really good job at either suicide leading, or keeping it's sash intact to revenge kill something later.

Andie:
This thing is mainly here to fake a lead, but it also serves the purpose of revenge killing and even sweeping late game because of it's amazing power and speed. I picked standard coverage moves and double dragon because the option of outrage is sometimes nice to OHKO some major threats. It revenge kills the lati twins, destroys fairys with eq, and has rockslide to deal with one of my biggest weakness which is staraptor.

Khurem:
I needed something to get rid of of bulky steels reliably and magnezone is an obvious choice. It also serves as half of my volt-turn core with it's incredibly strong volt switch. It is my main switch in to a lot of dragon and fairy attacks, but also keeps up really reliable offensive pressure. I find myself using this more and more in this metagame because of all the skarmory, scizor, and ferrothorns that are running around and wall large parts of my team.

Lucas:
I needed a defogger and something that can take special attacks, so here's latios the monster that has found it's way into S tier. It has amazing power and really limts the amount of prediction because draco will most likely 2HKO whatever switches in. I added surf to get rid of heatran while keeping solid coverage, and also killing non scarfed landorus.

Sam:
I was looking at win conditions and I saw this. I decided to use the CM set because Keldeo can actually be somewhat bulky because of it's typing. After a CM it's really almost unstoppable, and on top of that it can still use all of it's moves to hit predicted switches or just beat switches. Leftovers keeps it healthy, and overall it's just a super solid win condition, very similar to clefable but even better in my opinion.

Dyess:
I needed a bulky offensive pivot and scizor made a ton of sense due to it's technician U-turn and priority BP. I put knock off to neuter a lot of pokemon like scarfed landorus, chansey and other obnoxious things. It can take almost anything form the latis bar Hp fire, and it also can survive magnezones hp fire if it's scarfed and u turn out. Overall it does a lot of work and is really amazing.
