Playing as Draven
Tips to maximize your impact
- Catch every axe
Catch every Spinning Axe (Q): you ready another one immediately, and you can hold two at once.
- Recast W on each axe
Recast Blood Rush (W) with each axe you catch: each catch resets its cooldown, and the spell gives you move speed and attack speed.
- Cash in your Adoration
Go for the kill when your League of Draven (passive) stacks are high: killing a champion gives you bonus gold based on your Adoration.
- Knock back whoever engages you
Save Stand Aside (E) to push back whoever engages you: the axes knock them aside and slow them.
Playing against Corki
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Don't count on your minions
Don't count on your minions against Missile Barrage (R): each missile explodes on impact and damages enemies around it, you included.
- Leave his Gatling cone
Get out of the Gatling Gun (E) cone rather than trading inside it: it lowers your armor and magic resist while it fires.
- Avoid brushes hit by his bomb
Don't rely on a brush hit by Phosphorus Bomb (Q): the area and the champions hit stay revealed for a few seconds.
- Engage after his dash
If you can engage, wait until Valkyrie (W) or Special Delivery is used: he's then vulnerable, with no way to reposition.
