Playing as Draven

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Catch every axe

    Catch every Spinning Axe (Q): you ready another one immediately, and you can hold two at once.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Hwei

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his damage spell

    Trade after he uses a damage spell: Devastating Fire (QQ), Severing Bolt (QW) and Molten Fissure (QE) share a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stand still or alone

    Don't stand still or alone: Severing Bolt (QW) strikes after a delay and deals more damage to isolated or immobilized enemies.

  3. Jump on him if you can

    If you can engage, jump on him right after one of his CC spells: Hwei has no dash or leap, and Subject: Torment (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  4. Move away from the ally hit by his R

    If an ally is hit by Spiraling Despair (R), move away from them: the vision expands around its target, slows and damages nearby enemies, then explodes.
