Ravenous Flock is particularly good at finishing a unit after they try to protect it from a removal with a combat trick.Therefore, you can rapidly clean their board thanks to Poison Darts and Lecturing Yordle’s Poison Darts. Zed Poppy struggles against your numerous 1-damage spells – Sharpsight, Nopeify, and Twin Disciplines all are a large investment, leaving them with only Ranger’s Resolve as a somewhat good answer.Keep Lecturing Yordle if you have a good hand.

Keep Ravenous Flock if you have a damage spell or Arachnoid Sentry. The Leviathan completes that win condition by tutoring Swain and stunning the opponent’s board when both are on board, all the while pushing a considerable amount of burn damage. Swain is the main win condition of the deck, and will quickly close out games thanks to the numerous cards that can trigger his stun effect. Teemo, Poison Dart, and Lecturing Yordle put shrooms in the opponent’s deck, which synergize well with Swain. With early chump blockers and cost-efficient removals, Teemo Swain survives the early game all the while creating cards and setting up Swain. The deck performs extremely well on the ladder in the current Zed Poppy meta and is featured on our Tier List as a Tier 1 Dark Horse – don’t sleep on it! Teemo Swain is a new archetype that emerged recently alongside Riven Swain as a way to combine to powerful Bandle City midrange package with Swain. Their punishes for not open-attacking are Brightsteel Protector and Golden Aegis, but you’ll be happy to force them out as early defenses instead of combo tools.
