"A battle amongst the stars! Truly Earthling, we were born for this moment. Too bad I will end it by rapturing your skull!"
—Drax[src]

Drax is a Cosmic Champion. Being a Cosmic Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Tech Champions, but is weak to Mystic Champions.

Bio[]

Drax The Destroyer — a fearsome opponent who has faced Thanos, Annihilus, and the Blood Brothers. But the green-skinned warrior started life as Arthur Douglas, a human who lost his family to the evil Thanos. Supercharged by cosmic beings, he became the Destroyer — a rugged brawler and Guardian of the Galaxy!

Mechanics[]

Drax is all about the damage, having access to Fury Buffs and Bleeds. Fury Buffs will trigger naturally throughout the fight, increasing Drax’s overall damage output. Additionally, Critical Hits have a chance to trigger Bleeds on the opponent, further increasing Drax’s damage.

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

Strengths[]

  • Buffs
    • Drax’s Signature Ability allows him to stack multiple Fury Buffs throughout the fight allowing him to counter nodes such as Buffed Up and increasing his damage

Weaknesses[]

  • Nullify
    • Drax relies on his Fury Buffs to increase his overall damage output. Running into an opponent with access to Nullify would cut Drax’s damage down.
  • Bleed immune
    • Though Drax has Fury buffs, his other source of damage comes from Bleed,

Recommended Masteries[]

  • Deep Wounds
    • With access to easy Bleed Debuffs, Deep Wounds will increase Drax’s damage even further.
