>>53889062Its okay, it hits hard in either case and actually has both stabs. But it sorta ends at "has ice coverage".
Low stats also mean its not hitting the greatest despite what it is.
Also something Basculegion suffers from in general is how iffy the speed creep is, its slow enough that a lot of common meta elements can randomly fuck it.
Like scarf Meowscarda is a thing right now.
>>53889074There is rarely any reason to not be rocking an item(and ingame lacking them so often is just Gamefreak being lazy), and phantom force is generally awful because its highly predictable.
You run high risk of giving a free switch(even without normals in play this can be awful) or making your opponent aware they can just boost and then dumpster you.
>>53889079Eleki can blow out entire teams if left unchecked, generally its only one or two mons in the way. Tera is just the easiest and built in way to achieve that.
Which pushes it over the edge, what is usually a easy to play around threat can literally just bust through your doors anyway.
