Today I’m playing Draven Vi Sion, one of the decks we took to the Eternal Runeterra Open. This deck has become pretty standard in the meta, with full copies of Fallen Riders, Lost Souls, and the discard package of Reborn Grenadiers, Zaunite Urchins, Boom Baboons, and Sump Dredgers. We also have the full nine burn spells with Mystic Shots, Get Excited, and Blowback, plus Pirouettes and Rummages to round out the variety.
The big changes in this deck come from the Champions. How many copies of Draven, Sion, and Vi do we play? Do we include Samira? We also have access to Draven’s Biggest Fan, which gives us ways to find our Draven.
The general game flow of this deck is to play Zaunite Urchin on turn one, Fallen Rider on turn two, and Draven on turn three. We use Draven and a Spinning Ax to discard some stuff, and then play the four mana Twin Blade Revenant off of the Lost Soul. This powerful one-two-three-four curve has a lot of great aggressive power. The Fallen Rider and Lost Soul both have Fearsome, so we can attack with Fearsome on turn two and four to deal four damage each time.
Finally, we have the option of playing Draven’s Biggest Fan and Draven package to give us access to extra copies of our expensive cards. This gives us a way to crash through big walls of Norra units if our early game plan gets stifled.
I’m ready to do battle with this deck, and I’m excited to see how it plays out!
