With Sceens taking over as seen by Vert's incredible OLT run, and with uses from the likes of Ewin, Giannis, and ABR... Which screen setter do you prefer and with what set?


I very much prefer it, and the option to run hazards as last slot is great, as you do not need to put another mon like Iron Treads or Samurott-Hisui somewhat awkwardly. Psycho Boost is still great ofc, and I have also seen other options like Thunder Wave and Teleport.


Poor winrate but part of the earlier screens, around WCoP. With the option to run STAB moves, Veil, Encore, but also Snowscape and Roar. Blizzard is another option, as is running max SpA rather than HP


Still very well disguised, and we have seen it do great while running a variety of moves such as Steel Beam, Roar, Heavy Slam, Close Combat


Dying down again after the initial boom during OLT, but still somewhat around

I really enjoyed using the Nasty Plot Tera Blast Ground set Storm Zone made for Ninetales-A. Freeze Dry + TB Ground is pretty scary even off of base 81 Special Attack and that set is good at luring a lot of its standard checks like Gholdengo,

i wonder if tb fire wouldn't be better. the coverage is decidedly worse and the rocks weakness is bad but the steel resist gives you an even bigger edge over ghold, scizor, and iron crown, while also letting you snipe corv. thoughts?

I assume it has something to do with Heatran's flash fire hindering tb fire Atales perhaps but I think the viable ground types available like Great Tusk or Lando-T could help ease the situation but then again, I assume will first set up rocks and that would hurt Atales a lot if it switches in again both pre and post-tera (assuming was spinblocked by Pecha or Ghold and the switch mu games begins after that).

I assume Ground is used specifically for Gking as it resists Poison, hits it SE, and is immune to twave. Also Heatran which is now OU, and potentially to catch Thunderclap.
