Tips

  • Slow and Steady is recommended with Draven when his team plays bruisers or tanks that let him auto-attack.3

Interactions

  • Blood Brother is a Draven-only Gold augment. Damaging basic attacks and abilities apply Hemorrhage stacks; at five stacks on an enemy champion, Draven gains Noxian Might for 5 seconds, granting bonus attack damage.4 Patch unknown
  • Tap Dancer can make Draven's axe fly away.5
  • Draven's axe positioning and maintaining axes while kiting are difficult in Arena.6
  • Rice and Chicken does nothing for Draven except increase his Q cooldown.7
  • On some maps, Draven's axe landing indicators are difficult to see with Gladiator, Soul Reaver and default skins; Fright Night and Pool Party skins work better.8

Bugs

  • On some Arena maps, Draven's axe landing visuals appear below the ground, leaving only a small part of the effect visible; other abilities in the same area can make the landing point difficult to spot.91011
  • Dematerialize retroactively upgrades all of Draven's stacks to the new numbers when it levels up.12
