Galactic Guardians Gravity Feed DraxPowers and Abilities
Drax has a very aggressive set of powers starting with a combination of Charge, Invulnerability and Exploit Weakness. Mid dial he picks up Blades/Claws/Fangs and Combat Reflexes. Late in his dial he switches things up with #LC and Toughness. His final slot has a last hoorah feel to it. With an attack spike to 10 (or 12 if you are taking on Thanos) and powers like Blades/Claws/Fangs and Exploit Weakness present, Drax has the potential to deal some serious damage before nap time.

Feat Suggestions
When playing in formats that don’t restrict the use of “Feat Cards”, here are a few suggestions for Drax. First and foremost consider the alternate team ability; Guardians of the Galaxy. Technically it’s not a feat card, but work with me here. This low cost option will keep Drax powers from being countered by opposing characters. For only 4 points you can’t go wrong with this choice.

Another low cost feat option is Skullduggery. At just 5 points, this option will provide a chance to force an action token on the character Drax just damaged. This only works on targets that do not currently have any action tokens. Great for making your opponent choose between clearing, or taking pushing damage should they decide to retaliate.

Vampirism is also a good feat for use with Drax. Allowing Drax to use Blades/Claws/Fangs and Steal Energy simultaneously. It’s a little pricey at 12 points, but healing for a clix while damaging your opponent is always a good option.

@ Dr. Silly,

I didn't click on the image so I didn't realize you could view the external portion of the dial. My mistake. However since this is the gravity feed version there still hope that the main set version might have the Defenders TA.

@ Phep

Dont see any TA on his dial, why would you hope for it? As for the dial. I like it.

Finally! Drax is in the house. The Guardians of the Galaxy (new version of the team) needed a close combat beatstick and this is what the doctored ordered. Hopefully he'll have the Defenders TA as well to help with the average DV.

Totally badass sculpt. I love it! Looking like that, he HAS to has BCF and EW!

I approve of the Blades/Exploit Weakness combo for Drax. I would like to see that comboed with Flurry as well on a couple of clicks for perhaps the Veteran version.

Thanos will still destroy Drax though which stinks. I don't think his defensive stats and abilities are good enough. What does he have that can counter a ranged attacker that is firing off 4+ clicks of damage with 11+ to Attack?

I like him, for his points he will be a good tie up figure that can dish it out.
