Blegh, generic set, but it works. Outrage does ~35%, but I outspeed once I wake up and OHKO with a 100.5% X-Scissor :)

I really should've calced it first, lol

if you had used Stone Edge I would've given him a bit more defense and a different item to avoid the KO, but the counter is essentially the same

That does not factor in:

1. You get burned on the Switch
2. Crawdaunt gets a Sub up on said switch

Pretty sure the golduck loses, EQ does 19% but you can only 2hko with surf at +3 (without Light Screen up).
