    Gen 8 Mew Deception Lead (peak rank 19)

    You don’t have to kill Corv with Mel, you just need to chip it a little to force a roost and hard heatran on that turn. Slowking also struggles into heatran even with earthquake, especially with scarf. Really most of my stall matchups come down to if most of my magma storms hit or not. Just...

    Gen 8 Mew Deception Lead (peak rank 19)

    Yeah the stall MU takes a lot of patience but I do manage to beat it more often than not. I usually get a scarf on the king, and find the AV set much easier to handle than the trick set. Its mostly a lot of double switching, baiting in the melmetal check for a twave, and making enough progress...

    Gen 8 Mew Deception Lead (peak rank 19)

    Funnily enough I originally had 76 def EVs for that exact interaction haha, great minds think alike! I dropped it all from spatk though because I still wanted to outspeed Urshifu without the scarf, and to a lesser extent I cared a bit about the 328 speed tie vs opposing 100 speed mons. I ended...

    I do think that set can do some serious work, but losing the ability to kill urshifu as well as not OHKOing kartana would be a bit of a dealbreaker for me. This is especially true because you outspeed Urshifu even without the scarf which is a huge plus. The psychic STAB is also more generally...

    Gen 8 Mew Deception Lead (peak rank 19)

    I did try a physical version for a while and it was just not as reliable. The main reasons are urshifu (hits for about 75% instead of guaranteed OHKO), Kartana (also about 75), and to a lesser extent Hawlucha (usually runs grassy or electric seed which raises def). Also Triple Axel can miss, as...

    Gen 8 Mew Deception Lead (peak rank 19)

    Sharing this team as the gen is almost over and it performed the best for me by far (1911 elo whereas I generally hover in the 1700-1800 range with any other team). Also to share my theory that there is a Mew set that can fit on any given team and adapt to any meta...
