Skunktank SF reasonable tech?

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody thought that Skunktank from SF is a reasonable play as a tech in disruption decks, etc? Obviously SSU is a must for it to even be considered.
Please tell me what you think!

Its too easy to warp/switch/retreat out of it's effect. It would be a decent deck if not for the fact that its attacks are meh.
 
Then it swings for decent damage (40+ posion for 2 is good, 90 for 3 is good), but darkrai would probably be a better attacker then as well. If it didn't have to be active to use the power, then I would say its okay for a spread deck. I guess you could use moonlight and a spreader, but then it becomes extreemely messy to gain an effect that the power darkrai basically does.
 
I'd much rather play Gliscor/Lv. X. Poison/paralyze + massive damage for 2 energy if they have a special condition + potential burn + built-in SSU + ability to do 60 and switch to the bench.
 
i tried a skunktank/darkrai/sableye deck right after SF came out. the previous posters are correct; skunktank's power is too easily bypassed by warp point or snipers. still, it's 1000% better than the old skunktank.
