TTAR IS BACK BABY
I made a sticky web team with CB Ttar, CM Colbur Sinistcha, and Specs Zapdos. CB Knock Off from Ttar gets rid of all the boots, Colbur Sinistcha is the best spin blocker, Gholdengo and Tusk do their thing, Zapdos is a speedy breaker, and Ribombee sets webs.

This team got me to #13 on the ladder (2019 ELO). I'm a pretty average player so the team definitely carried. Urshifu is busted right now before everyone realizes they can run helmet. Tera water blows through the whole tier. The rest of the core is a balance...
