Being a drake pilot myself, I've been in the situation where I've had no cap on a passive tank yet could still do enough damage to make the (domi) warp out but if I was damped as well I'd think I'd have a very hard time to get out of that situation.
Nos & Damp is probably a drakes worst nightmare, due to the fact if you lose your cap on a active tank your stuffed, and on a passive you lose your invul fields leaving you with less resistance and also no means to MWD out (if you setup like that).
Out damaging is your only get out as long as your passive tank will hold out but dampening is just the final blow as well as if you can't do that your totally fudged!

I haven't fought a drake yet that can beat my myrmidon setup, either on tranq or singularity, and i challenge one who thinks they can.
I could think of a way but it would be a specialised setup, not something I'd like to fly everyday 
(Oh and thats not a challenge  )

Honestly i would say the drake pilot would win but only if he is using a passive set-up. Then he could just wipe out all of the myrmidons drones with the missiles whether it was dampened or not. This would mean the myrm has suffered a huge damage reduction. But if the drake is active tanked then i would say the myrm would win.
Oh good point yeah even if I was dampened I'd be in range of the drones and then he wouldn't be doing enough dmg to break my tank

When people catch up and finally start killing drones Myrm doesn't look so good anymore.
They try. 
I orbit at 500m due to using small blasters, so scooping/deploying drones is a non-issue for me.
If you orbit that close then I'll be laying the blows onto you as well then as you can't damp me that low, and at which point it becomes a close fight and you can't assure a 100% success, more like whos tanks will give up first

I don't use damps (I think you got my comedy setup with my normal one)... I use 1 med nos with a rack of small nuetron blasters up top, the standard MWD/Web/Scram with a target painter and cap injector in my mids, and dual reps/a 1600 plate/3 hardeners in the lows. Like I said, it's not your normal Myrm setup but it works damn well.
Sounds like a beefed up thorax setup to me, and I fly the rax and know how tough that can be... so you having the added tank and more dmg output I'm sure you are a handful on the battlefield fair play to you

So the crunch to this topic is...
Drake (Active) vs Myrmidon (Nos) = Myrmidon
Drake (Passive) vs Myrmidon (Nos) = Drake (if you take out the drones)
Drake (Passive) vs Myrmidon (Dmg setup) = 50/50
Drake (Active) vs Myrmidon (Dmg setup) = 50/50
Seems to be what I understand from comments so far.

As for a passive tank being able to beat a nosf myrm... Passive tank is to weak to hold up against 5 ogre IIs.
5x Ogre I's with low drone skills would be tankable with easy though... but we can mention the drake pilot as one with next to no skills for shields also.
I'd put my drake on the card table for a dual that thinks otherwise.
Hmmm I still think 'nos myrm' and 'pas drake' would be a good knock about, I agree if I didn't take care of your drones I'd be in trouble but I think you under-estimate a decent skilled passive tank.
Don't get me wrong though I know what you Doom boys are like after flying with you lot when I was in TRI, your not one to talk rubbish.
Think I need to do some testing
