- hit with Steelix and hopefully have all 4 Durant out
- hit with 2nd Steelix, either to finish off a 2-prizer or hit another single prizer
- 1st Durant: 460 with a perfect setup, and even with 1 less Durant you still nuke everything
- 2nd Durant: 340, you can still ohko virtually anything with a perfect setup, 280 if the 4th Durant was late, 220 if no 4th Durant
- 3rd Durant: 220, you can still target some 2 prizers, 160 with a late Durant, otherwise Steelix becomes better here if the last Durant was prized
- 3rd Steelix: 130 to finish off, at that point it's better than the last Durant, it could even hold a cape to make it harder to ohko.
Durant gets really fucked by any copy being prized though, since with a single one prized (or not out on turn 1) you only have time for 2 Durant hits before Steelix becomes better. Steelix isn't bad though, and being able to Turo a Steelix with a cape looks pretty nice against a deck that can't reliably hit for 280.
You could probably mitigate the prize risk with a heavy ball and a bunch of Arven, which can also grab a cape for the 1st Steelix. but another big problem is that the perfect setup of 2 Steelix + 4 Durant doesnt leave any bench space open, so you have to time your Manaphy and Jirachi carefully, and also no bench draw. Still, you can ohko up to 2 zards in a row with the proper setup.
