Great LeagueS#4 / 114691.4
Sand Attack · Air Cutter · Iron Head

Corviknight receives damage buffs to both Air Cutter and Iron Head, improving its neutrals and giving it stronger identity. While its pacing is now slower, it's also less bait and boost dependent. It should be a strong contender going into the season.

Corviknight receives damage buffs to both Air Cutter and Iron Head, improving its neutrals and giving it stronger identity. While its pacing is now slower, it's also less bait and boost dependent. It should be a strong contender going into the season. For those who find regular Corviknight lacking, Shadow Corviknight is worth serious consideration.

Ultra League gives Corviknight more room to flex its bulk. It pairs excellently with other top picks, making it a team building centerpiece. Stronger damage for Air Cutter and Iron Head improve its previously weak output.
