This whole Draven thing is getting old, guys. Don't deny it.
I mean really, Nick, what could you even like about Draven? Saying that he's awesome is not a legitimate answer, nor any other misused overly positive adjective; incredible, glorious, awestrucking. I see nothing that makes this specific champion even remotely likable. He has an... ego? Is that why? Is that why he is fascinating, or was fascinating, to people? I just don't get it and to be honest, excluding you, there is nobody that I know who even likes Draven or sticks to the "League Of Draven" thing.
Obviously I'm not talking about playing him, lots of people play things that aren't necessarily amazing at the moment because they are skilled with said champion or because it's fun; but my question isn't why do you enjoy playing him, but, rather, why do you worship him even though there's nothing special about him except his ego (I might be able to see why you'd think this was cool, anyway) and perhaps his good voice-over, although I wouldn't say that was something worthy of worship.
Draven for one, good hair, great voice, his kit does fantastic damage and when he's fed he wreeeeeeeeeeeckssssssssssssssssss. Plus playing with him makes you feel like an aggressive beast bot lane, nobody wants to go against you. Add that in with his awesome skins, pretty hard to not like him, for me anyway xD.

Okay but I wasn't talking about his gameplay at all, so the fact that he's fun to play, makes you feel like a man, has a nice kit shouldn't contribute to this. The fact that he has good skins or "good hair" doesn't really make someone worship said champ, does it? Ahri has great skins and she has nice hair, voice and even a cool dance, yet there isn't any word of "League of Ahri" going around.
The whole Draven craze is the same as the Teemo hate. People worship Draven for no special reason just as *MOST* people hate Teemo for no apparent reason.
This is NOT about liking Draven. You can like any champion for any trivial reason. Hell, I like Syndra purely because of her dance. I'm asking where this whole Draven craze (you know, people randomly being like DRAAAAAVEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNN LEAGUE OF DRAVEN DRAVEN IS SO COOL DRAVEN IS LOVE AND LIFE etc whenever his name is uttered) originated from and more importantly why hasn't it died yet.

People get get attached to inside jokes, which Draven personifies. He's as confidant as most everyone wishes they were and he's quotable and looks ridiculous (People like ridiculous looking things because it's funny)
To people that don't find him funny or cool, it's understandable that they don't get why people who do find him awesome, find him awesome. xD

Playstyle and overall gameplay design aside.
Draven is a character I think is cool, has an overall unique and cool look, and his persona appeals to me and it's something I can identify myself with. Sure the joke is sorta overused but that doesn't prevent me from enjoying it. The strength of Draven's overall design and appeal lie in their simplicity.I don't worship him, nor think he's fascinating. I simply enjoy this sort of simple roleplaying in-game and outside it, that's all.
draven is the first champion that came out after i started playing so that means ive been playing for a little over two years
also regarding the whole "wtf y u liek draven" thing i sorta like him because he has an inhuman amount of confidence, he likes to be the big center of attention to the point that instead of being in the army with his brother we went on to be an executioner that wore his fabulous clothes instead of a black mask to make a show for people doing what he does best, yeah what he does best is killing people but thats a likeable quality anyways
he likes to make himself look flashy any way possible even when fighting by catching his axes during battle and even throwing them across the rift -without really big spell effects- its just his axes not a giant arrow or huge bombs or anything crazy but he matches it with just his axes cuz he can
theres a lot of likeable qualities about him if you try to look deeper than "he only has a big ego thats dumb" i mean i dont worship him but hes one of the better "characters" to me in LoL and of his "big ego make a show look at me" personality in all of video games and most other media
