Don't die trying to live..
All you did was post a useless calc and say it can miss. That literally means nothing to me. Aromatics is not staying in on a durant and if it does, it's either dying or getting set up on.On Durant to S it's honestly far from S rank as it has so many flaws that prevent it from going up. As noted durant can't switch in on anything like even aromatisse comes close to 2hkoing it (0 SpA Aromatisse Moonblast vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Durant: 90-107 (35 - 41.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Stealth Rock). Secondly one of durant's other problems is hustle which does give it a lot of power it has a nasty side effect of making every attack durant runs as accurate as stone edge.
All of its coverages can be used, emphasis on Tournament play. Jolteon is out sped and killed by scarfed sets.i mean virizion isn't exactly the strongest mon ever so i dont get why you're making that comparison. durant IS frail af and most attacks from revenge killers can easily KO it (example: 252 SpA Jolteon Thunderbolt vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Durant: 234-276 (91 - 107.3%) -- 43.8% chance to OHKO). Mega steelix is like everywhere and that can pivot in on durant pretty convincingly and destroy it. Hell, all the S and A+ ranks can do more than 50% to it (and a sizable chunk can KO outright after a little prior damage). We still have alom for stuff like semistall which can pivot around pretty much every durant set ever. And qwilfish is a great check to w/e durant set; while Thunder Fang sucks for it idk if anyone even runs that anymore lol. It's actually pretty hard to see what this thing switches on without getting 2HKOed aside from like Aromatisse. Also, I think it was nommed to A+ earlier and rejected? W/e, defos against durant to S.
'Hell, all the S and A+ ranks can do more than 50% to it'
Literally durant kills or sets up on everything in these ranks and even lower, Also none of them can even switch in to its attacks.
