I'd just like to mention just in case you missed it yesterday; Aeigslash AKA "SmogonSword" has been banned to Ubers, so any teams containing it need to be re-worked for OU.

A lot of people are unhappy about that :p

jonnysurvives and TheRealAussie you still have to battle.
I'm not sure why people are upset about it. The sword can play a million different roles, making it already completely unpredictable without taking king's shield into consideration. King's Shield is pretty much luck based, because if you try to predict if it'll use it kings shield, you have to predict the counter prediction that the opponent will use, and in a 50/50 situation like Kings Shield, you can basically put yourself in a paradox trying to figure out what to do.

While I mostly agree, I dont exactly know to what extent you could say Aegislash is an unpredictable pokemon.
Most of them run with one of these two movesets:

Item: Leftovers
King's Shield
Swords Dance
Iron Head
Shadow sneak

or

Item: Leftovers
King's Shield
Substitute
Swords Dance
Shadow Sneak/Iron head


I might be wrong though, but at least those are the two movesets I recall seing the most. Then again, my memory is not so trustworthy :p

Really? People use sets without King's Shield? Well, that would be unexpected, but Im not sure how well it would work out haha I did recall a moveset with Autotomize though.

Also I forgot to put Iron head on the second set i mentioned. Edited it.

I've been seeing a lot more special aegislashes too
leftovers
substitute
shadowball
flash cannon

Even though it lacks swords dance bonuses, it's very effective in that most people view the sword as a physical attacker and also in that it doesn't take any negative effects from intimidate
