Even though he's on the art for Looking for Trouble, Drax has never been a minion killer. Yes, he can exhaust to kill one, but that just means he didn't attack the villain. All that has changed with the addition of Spoiling for a Fight, Aggressive Stance, Firepower and Blood Rage. Here's a rundown of how those cards help him:
-
Spoiling for a Fight alone allows Drax to attack the villain and attack a minion without any other readies.
-
Aggressive Stance + Spoiling for a Fight + Knife Leap/Firepower means Drax gets a ready, then can pull either Firepower or Knife Leap to hand. That means the minion will be gone when either card is played which will trigger...
-
Blood Rage and/or Battle Fury which is a ready and a card.Drax likes both of those.
-
Fluid Motion is conditional but you should have enough attack events and ways to tutor them (Aggressive Stance and Keep Up the Pressure) to have the +1 be semi-permanent. Really, it's a badge of honor to run Drax in aggression with 6 HP or less to make "Now I'm Mad" work.
-
Jarnbjorn and Side Holster are there to give you 3 weapons to exhaust for Firepower, but it's a good card with just 1 weapon, and a very good card with 2. Don't wait for 3 weapons to use it.

Multiplayer
-
Here's an altered version of this deck ( Multiplayer Minion Killing Drax) for 3 and 4 player.
-
I've added Directed Force which works on Firepower and Knife Leap. There's a Helicarrier to be a team player, Combat Training for more damage, and Lock and Load if there's other weapon carrying heroes with you.

As always, have fun!

1) The card you discard could be a needed upgrade like DWI Theet or Drax 's Knife, and with a 4 hand size, you might not see it again this game. 2) The discarded card could be a ready. So, that's really losing out on 2 cards with DWI. 3) There's no double resources. So, max added damage is 1. |

But the standard damage would be +1 for EACH weapons you exhaust. Similar to using Aggressive Energy, the damage number that is increased (base 3) is multiplied. So if you exhaust 3 weapons and discard a single resource icon, you would do 4 damage x3. So yea, it would be costly for Drax to play (moreso than a hand-size-5 hero), but the cost-benefit is there in a longer game. Maybe he wouldn't have a longer game, though. |

Sep 28, 2025Drax was my second thought to try firepower with after Black Panther T'Challa. Haven't made it there yet myself but fun to see it can work. In solo, have you found Drax can actually get those side schemes knocked out? |

Oct 01, 2025This looks awesome! I threw together a Drax Firepower deck this weekend but this looks much smoother, can't wait to try this out. |

Wouldn't Sharpshooter work as well, and reliably? I've seen a lot of Firepower decks recently, but everyone seems to be sleeping on it.
This deck looks pretty great, though. I like the cut of your gib.
