Considering Sinestia instead of mousehold makes your Incin matchup against close combat better. (So if you are having trouble with Sneasler that might be worth it)

Also choice scarf Basc has been getting some good results (Would also synergize well with Incin for intimidate cycle, or Sinestea's Hospitality)
