This set is fairly straightforward to use, as it's a suicide lead. Landorus-T will almost always be used as a lead unless there's a Mega Sableye on the opposing team or a Pokemon that otherwise prevents Landorus-T from setting up Stealth Rock at the start of the match. After being sent out, Landorus-T should set up Stealth Rock immediately unless there's a significant threat that can be eliminated instead. Swords Dance should be used when facing bulkier Pokemon such as Mega Scizor, Ferrothorn, and Clefable in order to pressure them and wallbreak for teammates. This is especially useful versus Mega Scizor because it assists you in keeping Stealth Rock up. After setting up Stealth Rock, click Explosion if you are facing a slower hazard remover that you cannot otherwise KO, letting you keep your Stealth Rock up and get significant damage off. However, it should be noted that you should not use Explosion recklessly otherwise, as Landorus-T can only use it once, and using it in conjunction with Swords Dance can be an effective way to entirely eliminate even bulkier Pokemon.
