PvP rankings (GO Battle League)

League	Tier	Rank	Score	Recommended moves	Typical build
Great League	A	#71 / 1146	88.5	Shadow Claw · Sacred Sword · Iron Head Doublade has its share of doubters. Despite Shadow Claw, Sacred Sword, and amazing typing, Doublade has yet to prove its sum is greater than the parts. Compared to Aegislash, it's more reliable and less technical, but its higher floor also comes with a lower ceiling in terms of impact.	L22.5 · 6/15/15
Ultra League	B	#95 / 844	86.4	Shadow Claw · Sacred Sword · Iron Head Doublade has yet to see competitive success in any league, so there are many reasons to be skeptical of its Ultra League prospects. The resources required to build it are better invested in its evolution, Aegislash.	L46.5 · 4/15/14
Ultra Premier	B	#66 / 689	90	Shadow Claw · Sacred Sword · Gyro Ball

Source: PvPoke overall rankings. Score is relative to the league meta (100 = best). Typical build is the IV spread PvPoke assumes.
