Sounds good to me :]

it's really easy to build in nu bc all you need is a firespam counter and a glalie/feraligatr check
boltsandbombers
gatr checks are easy to come by, but mega glalie can 2HKO the entire tier

252+ Atk Refrigerate Glalie Double-Edge vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Steelix: 127-150 (35.8 - 42.3%) -- 93% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

have you seen the posts in the NU np thread? people realized that it gets super fang, so with that plus a little prior damage something just dies

but yes indeed but still
252+ Atk Steelix Iron Head vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Glalie: 324-384 (107.6 - 127.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Thats exactly fire spam. Checks: seismitoad, mantine, hariyama, rhydon, kabutops, ludicolo, etc
boltsandbombers
and other stuff too, but thats just some stuff off the top of my head
bb skarm
also put, a combination of fire-type pokemon/wallbreakers applying pressure on the opponent because nothing safely gets in except for things like av hariyama
bb skarm
rhydon? dude any firespam poke is probs using hp grass
but yes mantine is a personal favorite after playing with the swift swim set

it resists their stab moves, and you can predict the hp grass from a mile away - thats why its just a check
yama is 2HKOed by specs extrasensory from typh, so
