I am a fan of
Bulk Up
Roost
Brave Bird
Body Press
Impish Nature, IVs TBD but heavy on HP and Sp.Def, with potential Att or Spe investment.
Substitute or Taunt can replace BP to sacrifice coverage for utility. Power Trip or Iron Head are options, too. It can use Defog, U-turn, screens...pretty versatile and solid.

Mirror armor is a meme, it's only useful vs intimidate mons and memento. Neither of which are popular in SwSh meta.

Mirror armor is by no means bad but corviknight doesn't really care about being intimidate and shit like that, especially if you run a bulk up set.

A regular support one benefits way more from pressure because it means other mons cannot stall you out.

There's no "best" with Corviknight. It can run a physical sweeper set and a defensive set really well.

I like the pivot set better.
U-turn
Defog/Taunt/Screens
Brave bird
Roost
It's a really nice defogger and can deal with hawlucha pretty well.

The greatest thing about Corviknight is that it can run both of those roles well and clean house. It makes a pretty good glue mon for any core because it is versatile and effective at each of its possible playstyles.

Just because it's different than Skarmory doesn't mean it isn't similar to it.

I thought that, but then I got walled by a pressure corvknight. Over probably 60 battles with mirror armor corviknight, the only thing that happened was a corsola came in and got unlimited strenght saps back to full because my attack couldnt be lowered.

>Pressure or Mirror Armor?
Pressure is the more generally useful ability, and what you should default to if there's no specific matchup you want Mirror Armor for (e.g. you need it to beat a mon that relies on Mystical Fire to hit it). Pressure is just so good on fatmons in general, in Corviknight's case you give Unawares a hard time, you eat hazard PP easily, you an even run Sub on the Bulk Up set to waste that much more PP, it's great.

Pick Roost and then pick 3. Just because it’s not a carbon copy of Skarmory, an admittedly solid mon who was finally starting to fall off a bit in OU last gen, doesn’t mean it’s bad. It doesn’t have hazards or phazing, but it has plenty of other tools along with inherently good typing and solid bulk. Corviknight is great and I’m happy it’s differentiated enough from the two prior Steel/Flying types to be unique, viable, and versatile.
