I think that Alpha Cliviast doesn't deserve it's SS rank. Now that deniers are less viable and denying the whole enemy team for 3 turns is almost impossible, Alpha Cliviast's main gimmick has become almost useless. It's stats aren't impressive and it's trait makes it very easy to deny Alpha Cliviast. In my opinion AC should be ranked S+ or maybe even lower.

But  Alpha Cliviast is about to get replaced by Beledig because of it's 3 turn death countdown (that's what AC's move does) +  extra turn move. Also Beledig has better stats/attacks and a much better trait. Before the nerf to deniers it would have been a SS+ monster. But as Beledig's good moves have a 3 turn CD each... Beledig will get denied for 3 turns every time the enemy team uses a cda move. That means that Beledig won't be able to attack at all if the enemy team is using a fast cda user like Patient Cyber or Al Canine that can use cda every 3 turns.

Now my question is: Does Beledig replace AC as the SS-ranked death countdown user? Or does it simply not fit in the current meta and should be ranked lower? Imo Beledig should be ranked SS- for now.
