Draven is my favorite ADC not only because of his handsome looks, sense of style, literally breathing charisma, but also because of very unique botlane playstyle, spinning axes and hurling them at a Jinx's face is a true talent.



Draven is also regarded as a very tough champion to play and gives me a sense of accomplishment whenever I earn a kill and stash in that sweet extra gold, or come out of a team fight with both my axes spinning.

Draven's Q along with his Passive is what makes Draven so great, yet so difficult.

STACKS ON STACKS ON STACKS
Draven's passive essentially is the reason behind why Draven can get so far ahead ingame, it allows for you to earn TONS of extra gold. Everytime Draven kills a creep or catches an axe, he earns a stack of ADORATION. Keep farming and catching your axes for more stacks so you can cash em in when you kill a champ. DONT DIE THOUGH, you will lose almost all of your stacks upon death.

Q: Spin Spin Spin
Q is the main source of Draven's truckloads of damage, it empowers your basic attack. After a Q is hit, keep catching axes to keep your damage going without casting your Q over and over again, it takes a toll on your mana and has a relatively high cooldown. If you go for too long without attacking an enemy target, your Q will go away, so make sure to reset your Q by farming minions, poking champions, killing wards or attacking towers (EXCEPTION: you do not need to catch any axes when attacking a turret or inhibitor, and your Q will still reset.) Catching axes takes much practice, it will eventually become muscle memory. TIP: when you throw a Q, you can guide the spot to where the axe will land by clicking on a location next to you before the axe hits your target, this is a great tool for kiting.

Another tip: Around mid/late game when your attack speed is higher, you will not be able to get in all Q hits on an enemy since you can only hold 2 axes at once, however after you hit your second Q-empowered axe, you can press Q again if it is ready to get a 3rd axe hit on your target in place of a regular basic attack.

W: Go Super Saiyan
W allows for active steroids, allows you to run fast to chase up or barely escape a thresh hook, also avoids unit collision when active.

E: Stand Aside
E despite its looks, is a strictly utility ability, not for dealing damage, though sometimes when a few minions grouped together are low enough I sometimes bust an E to get the farm before they die. E is great for stopping enemies that are approaching you, can cancel channels such as Lucian's R, and procs Yasuo's R.

R: Whirling Death
R is a global ult, which resets and turns back on first champion hit.

Ult times (in seconds)

You won't automatically become good at Draven, it takes much practice, so don't be upset over a couple bad games of 0/12, we've all had them.

Just keep farming minions, catching axes, and keep up your charisma.
