The most versatile is the El Cabron. Lol. What made you choose all cloud chasers for your first rda? The mxv4 has the Freakshow airholes sure. Haven't heard too much about it yet. But having all those airholes up top and the bottom ones would make it the most versatile of the 4 you mentioned. The Yep is crap and the Doges idk... I think they're crap as well. They're cloud chasers that are far from the coveted "cloud chaser with good flavor for a cloud chaser" attys like the El Cabron, the Archon, the Troll, etc. What exactly are the characteristics you're looking for in your first atty? Maybe that will help us all better help you.

Btw my above comments are not from my personal experience but from my extensive online research. I say this because I'm very particular and I watch and read dozens of reviews before purchasing anything.

El Cabron does seem really nice. The owner of my local B&M had one but hadn't made his big order in yet.

I just picked up a Mutation Xv4. I wanted to pick up a Doge v2 but then I saw this one and couldn't see myself using the Doge for long if I picked this up, which I really wanted. I jumped the gun a bit and forgot to look at El Cabron more closely, but I'm very happy with it. I can close the side holes for extra flavor or open it wide for huge clouds. I went to this from a Mutation Xv2 clone and it is a big improvement IMO, has a nice big deck to build on and it has only leaked when I over dripped or dripped in a way the juice went right for the bottom air holes, easy to avoid once you realize it.

I'm really happy with the Mutation Xv4, but like JJ6404 said, more info on what you want from the RDA would help give you better opinions.

Haven't tried the others on your list, but I can say tat the Mutation X v4 is pretty awesome. Nice build deck, airflow like my Plume Veil when the sides are opened, but better flavor possible by just using the bottom air flow and closing the sides. Can close the bottom as well, and adjust basically to suit your draw, flavor and cloud needs.

That said, I got spoiled with my Vulcan and it's juice well. Dripping in to the Mutation, and my Freakshow with similar bottom air flow, means placing it correctly and not over dripping else it runs out those bottom holes on on to my hand. You can close one of the sides easily, if you want to go single coil and focus things a bit, but there's now good way to close just one of the bottom airflow openings. Still, it's got me pretty happy over all, and I'm good on new drippers for the time being, until something significantly better comes out. Which will likely be in a week, plus or minus 6 days :)

I have a Doge 2 and a plume veil v 1.5. I like the Doge over most of the RDA's I have looked at. I am thinking about the X-Doge v2 but the big difference is the way the air flow is setup. The Doge v2 has cyclops slots and the X-Doge v2 has holes similar to the Mutation (most versions). So I think I will stick to my Doge v 2 until I find something much better. However I think you will love either the Doge v2 or the X-Doge v2. Oh and stay away from the bottom air flow unless you have some real practice building coils. They have a tendency to leak real bad unless you can get the coil and wicking just right.
