** While Drake is quite clever, he ''can'' be OutGambitted. Actually facing an extremely powerful EvilSorcerer and a devilishly cunning [[TheChessmaster manipulator]], but while confronting him in open combat directly on the battlefield is still [[CurbStompBattle out of the question.question]], he is still a mortal, with mortal failings, and can be OutGambitted in a [[XanatosSpeedChess game of wits]] by a smarter opponent.
