the main argument is that it is guaranteed 2-3 layers plus has a fats taunt to screw over other leads
Not true at all. Very often deoxys-d Will onlyget a signle layer of hazards up. Perhaps oyu are not effective enoguh at dealing with it/ Lead with a banded scizor, banded/scarf ttar, specs latios, any gengar, scarf politoed, and several others and you will find a deo D can only get up stealth rocks. Bastiodon has taunt, magic coat and stealth rocks and STURDY, so he is like 100% rocks. How many bastiodons do you see in OU? And he resists U turn :O
Deo D can even get zero layers of hazards down if bluffed correctly against or by being scarf rachi'd. By leading with something what often has rocks and could be taunt/magic coat bait, only to 2hko it and stop it rocking at all. I find It only gets spikes up after rocks If I let it or im unlucky (Red card switches)
Also I made my own 3 player chess board.

The next suspect tests I'd like to see are garchomp down, tornadus-t up.
Last I checked those had already been done... unless someone changed the tiers again and didn't tell me.

I agree with magic that it isnt guaranteed to work for tons of hazards, but it is probably the best suicide lead. Pair it with gengar for spin blocking and you have some nice residual damage building up
also
Magic and prohawk ride into the youtube scene by using the internet.
CAN WE PLZ GET A CCAT? :c
