Ah, thanks for the heads up there. I wasn't sure if hazard removal was needed in Battle Spot Singles or not.never use rapid spin or defog in battle spot. even if hazards were common (which they aren't), the momentum lost from spending a turn removing them will pretty much always hand your opponent the game. 3v3 is too fast
It does make sense though, since most matches (outside of stall) take around 8 turns. So, losing momentum for even a turn could cost you the whole game.
