Made a quick video around my Draven list in the Vendetta meta. I think this deck could come back as the Aurora match up is now much better. Talked about some of the new cards and options we will have as the meta shifts. Let me know what you guys think! youtu.be/P-CCbJl6R68?is…

This is my rough Draven list for Riftbound Set 4: Vendetta. Some notes: - Perfect Execution seems like possible one of replacement for Cleave. It does what we play Red’Sai for + gives 3 might to the unit. We can play it again from trash, which can also lead to double conq turns. Unfortunately its energy cost may be its downfall. - I’m like 99% sure that Wind and Ghosts is better than Rebuke, I haven’t play tested it enough, and maybe I need a mix of rebukes and Wind and Ghosts, obviously rebuke has a better energy cost, which might just make it better. - Twilight step is either the best card in the deck or getting chopped. Early game it’s basically just removal that replaces itself which I’m quite fond of. But it falls off super hard. - Ocean Drake in SB is super tech, I may even main board one of these. Card is extremely slept on in Draven imo. - Overall the SB is still a work in progress. I think Brittle Steel may be swapped out for Ravenbloom Perfect. I think this deck has a lot of options for gear hate now. Let me know what you guys think of this list, and what you’ve been cooking with Draven!

Gonna make a short video around this deck plus changes I’ve made recently after more play testing.

I’ve been playing this deck since Spiritforged, and I’m pretty torn between holding onto it and switching over to Akali. Seems like Akali is popular so i might switch to it just to make content about it.

@xdd1234321 I think it would be a different build. This is closer to a mid range list, Reveler is going to prefer an aggro style.

@gelui3D It’s a game ender similar to Red’Sai where we play our Draven showboat in base and ready him the same turn. Truthfully RTW is a better trick here

@aprman13 When would you play perfect execution? Having 3 open for it means u won’t develop much that turn

@Aberogus I think too many forerunners would be an error. There’s so much bounce removal in purple now.

@aprman13 Not having 3rd forerunner on sb or main looks crazy, card is way too good into non-purple to pass up, 3 Darius imo too much, I can't pinpoint why but he has started feeling a lot worse ever since bans.

@StyxRoxx @LordOfRiftTcg So true, but I think @LordOfRiftTcg was referring to illaoi. I’m pretty unsure if that card is better than Reksai. I think they both have pros and cons

@aprman13 @LordOfRiftTcg Not illaoi, twighlight revealer. She might be a Reksai replacement, dropping her turn 1 going 2nd into playing jhin and immediately moving with him is pretty nice but not sure if better than Reksai in the slot

Outside of Akali, are there any other decks you guys are building in Riftbound Set 4: Vendetta? In a slightly related note; would you guys wanna see my updated Draven list?

@georgismenjoyer @izarzin I think they’re both pretty valid. Jhin feels more combo-y vs ferrous is more consistent. We can’t really build our deck around losing to one card, if we’re playing against Diana we’d just side in our thundersongs.

@aprman13 @izarzin surely jhin is way better than ferrous in and around this bounce meta How do you even get value from ferrous when star crossed exists? To me, ferrous is very strong, but only vs the decks draven already beats, which is other midrange.

@LordOfRiftTcg Illaoi? Probably not, better top end options in our colors.

@aprman13 What do you think about the New creature who makes another unit when she attacks?

@aprman13 heres where I am at so far, baron is cutesy, could drop him for a forerunner / third darius, but serves as an important sideboard piece. I think jhin is too good with all these huge powercosted spells to not run

@aprman13 Draven's better. The only reason it was dropped was Aurora=auto loss. Now that Draven can rock Prefects and Brittle Steel the deck is a lot better. Still takes a really good pilot though. I wouldn't be surprised if someone like @samdsherman brings it back and wins everything

Question to Draven players, after Vendetta release, are you switching to Annie? Or did Draven get better this set?

@ASTRA_D2GL Perfect likely replacing brittle steel in SB, I like brittle for the flow cost meaning I only need to find aurora removal once. Playing around with rebuke over wind and ghosts, I just like the lower power cost as I find Draven is pretty power hungry.

@aprman13 no ravenbloom prefect seems wrong, wind and ghosts is not as good as star crossed - doesn't hit battlefield / action speed (also still defiable where rebuke is not).

@izarzin I’d love to slot in a RTW, need to figure out where I’m at with removal to determine if I can afford more tricks. Jhin I cant imagine what id cut for it. Realistically vex if I wanted to make him more aggro.

@aprman13 I’m also interested in Draven this set. A few cards I’m surprised in not seeing. Ride the Wind and Jhin. They seem like staples in these colors imo
