Mamoswine functions as an early-game wallbreaker in OU. An amazing STAB combination makes Mamoswine very difficult to properly handle it defensively in the long run, and its access to priority in form of Ice Shard slightly compensates for its mediocre Speed tier and enables it to revenge kill prominent offensive threats like Dragapult and Hydreigon. Stone Edge notably OHKOes Rotom-H and hits Rotom-W neutrally. Alternatively, Superpower lands a super effective hit on Ferrothorn but doesn't OHKO Rotom-H. Thick Fat increases Mamoswine's chances to beat Rotom-H by enabling it to survive one Overheat.
Wallbreakers like Hydreigon and Dragapult can create powerful breaking cores with Mamoswine and beat each other's checks; Hydreigon and Dragapult pressure Rotom-H and Rotom-W, while Mamoswine handles Mandibuzz, Fast offensive Pokemon such as Dragapult and Hawlucha can clean up after Mamoswine crushes opposing defensive backbones.
