Draven

Everything about Draven’s gameplay is loud, greedy and skill-expressive. This bot-lane marksman converts mechanical showmanship directly into gold through League of Draven: he stacks his fans’ Adoration by catching Spinning Axes and killing minions, then cashes the whole pile in as bonus gold when he kills an enemy champion. No other ADC snowballs a lead this explicitly — every catch is money, and every death resets the act.

Spinning Axe is the heart of the kit. It empowers his next attack with heavy bonus physical damage, then ricochets into the air; catching it readies another axe automatically, and he can juggle two at once. The result is a constant positioning dance — Draven must chase his own axe landing spots while also dodging skillshots and kiting enemies. Blood Rush feeds this loop, granting a surge of move and attack speed whose cooldown refreshes every time he catches an axe, so a clean juggle means near-permanent steroids. Stand Aside shoves enemies sideways with a slow, his only self-peel, and Whirling Death sends two massive axes across the entire map that reverse direction after striking a champion, letting him finish low-health targets in other lanes.

Strengths and costs

His early-game damage is among the highest of any marksman — an attack rating of 9 backed by axe-empowered trades that most lanes simply cannot answer. The costs are real: axe-catching telegraphs his movement, he has no dash, and the cash-out passive makes every death doubly punishing.

Draven belongs to confident players who want their audacity rewarded — playing scared is playing wrong.
