17 Wins - 4 Ifrit (2nd, 5th, 10th, 13th) - 1 Alphi&Ali (11th) - 1 Raubahn (7th) - 1 Pipin (17th) -- That advice given by an anonymous was great. Going from right to left with Hrodric Poisontongue, Darkscale, Hilda, Griffin and Onion Knight clearly increased my win/draw amount compared to loses. -- Yes I was super lucky.

I hope Swift falls off a cliff lol, hours spent and all cards 20+ except for Raubahn. The only upside is that Ifrit cards are durable enough for toilet paper usage

Mindez 29th January, 2021 @ 07:43 pm

Finally got the Raubahn on the 210th win! :D

Anonymous Player 26th January, 2021 @ 10:35 am

Swift's biggest weakness is that the highest number he has on the right side of any card is 5, and most others are 3 or 2. Play right to left with cards that have strong left sides and you should win more frequently. Bahamut is a great card to use because as long as his 5 side is covered he can't be captured by any of Swift's cards. I'm using Bahamut, Blue Dragon, Urianger, Lucia goe Junius, and Pipin Tarupin and I see above an 80% win rate in 50 games.

Update to comment directly below this one: about 16 wins after getting Pipin, I got my first A&A!

I haven't been keeping track of # of wins but I'd guess I've played around 50 rounds total. So far I've gotten 3 Ifrit and 1 Pipin. He's much easier to beat once you unlock 3-star cards. I've been beating him almost every round with this deck: The Ultima Weapon, Behemoth, Urianger, Roland, Thancred

Raspberry Buttercream 1st November, 2020 @ 09:04 am

400th+ wins, finally, 1 Raubahn Aldynn... LMAO, define bad luck!? (Of course with tons of A&A, Ifrit, and Pipin)

Magnetarus Prime 9th August, 2020 @ 10:15 pm

Didn't have too much trouble here. I was only looking for Raubahn and Pipin card and they dropped pretty quick. Wasn't counting wins but I only played 10-15 matches. Play the bottom up if your deck allows because if he has the A&A card you will will probably lose.

Taya Tayuun 17th July, 2020 @ 06:44 am

After 57 Wins finally got my last card Rauban. Also had 1 Pipin drop early on with many Ifrit and a handful of A&A

22 ifrit cards, took a break- came back a while later. chaos rules really are no fun; it's mostly draw-- tons of draws 47 in total and no other drops.

I got Raubahn after 3rd win. Ring gods love me. Can’t seem to win A&A though

OmegaYoshi13 20th August, 2019 @ 05:44 pm

No matter how many times I win against Swift, he never seems to drop Raubahn. He either drops Ifrit or Pipin (and on the very rare occasion, Alphinaud and Alisaie), but never wants to give up Raubahn. Personally, I think there should be a slight buff to the drop rate of Raubahn's card

Mayyl Punchmistress 16th August, 2019 @ 01:04 pm

After 107 times, i have 6 Pipin, 6 Ifrit, and 7 A&A. No Raubahn yet

Actually not played much, but I think I got lucky after 5 games i got Raubahn already... and King Elmer i still didnt get Bahamoth yet after 6 hours of playing...

Keiran Midorian 26th July, 2019 @ 07:35 am

I played against him a lot. I did not start counting until a bit of a way through, but still, for statistics sake: I won 59 games: Ifrit x9 Pipin Tarupin x7 Alphinaud & Alisaie x3 Raubahn Aldynn x1

grumpyfox 19th May, 2019 @ 05:49 am

Whoops should have specified: a drop of Raubahn

grumpyfox 19th May, 2019 @ 05:31 am

Took me two and a half hours of continuous play to see a drop :< I had a pretty decent (approx 75%) win rate with Squall, Lucia, Hilda, Y'shtola and Ysale. Like TacTican said, just try to focus on building a strong right side of the board and should be pretty easy from there.

TacTican 15th May, 2019 @ 12:12 pm

Swift's strongest cards all tend to be most powerful either in their upper left or lower left corners, so a good way to beat him is to build up a blue wall on the right side of the board and squeeze him left. Using a deck of Nero tol Scaeva, Byakko, Provenance Watcher, Lucia goe Junius, and Terra Branford, I estimate my winrate around 85% - about as consistent as the Chaos rule allows.

Keizaron 12th May, 2019 @ 02:11 pm

*from the left side with a left 5+. Oops.

Keizaron 12th May, 2019 @ 02:10 pm

Keep in mind, he has NO way to beat any of your cards with a left 5+. Can work in some strategies that way.

Asinametra 19th February, 2018 @ 01:07 pm

Swift's MGP settings are currently as follows, as of Patch 4.2: Match fee - 30 MGP; Win - 53 MGP (+23); Draw - 21 MGP (-9); Lose - 7 MGP (-23). Not only is he a stubborn jerk about giving up all 4 of his drop cards (I'm still waiting on a Raubahn...) but he also bleeds you of MGP while you're hoping Chaos rule cuts you some slack.

Odinnstorm 30th September, 2017 @ 05:50 pm

Swift is actually at x8.4, y8.9. This website has every location off. Haha

Karandrass Nevermore 16th June, 2015 @ 03:09 pm

Altogether I didn't have much trouble beating Swift (I believe they tamed him down). Just pull out your best cards and pray to Lord Bahamut for a useful draw from the 'Chaos' rule. Easy? No. Repetitive? Yes. Achievable? Certainly.
