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 Veigar

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay in the center of his cage

    If Event Horizon (E) lands around you, stay inside: only the edge stuns, and the cage disappears after 3 seconds.

  2. Dodge his Dark Matter

    Get out of the Dark Matter (W) zone as soon as the spell shows: it hurts a lot, but falls from the sky with a delay.

  3. Don't let him grow

    Dodge his spells and deny him kills: with Phenomenal Evil Power (passive), each spell that hits a champion and each takedown gives him power.

  4. Respect his level 6

    Once he hits level 6, don't stay in his range at low health: Primordial Burst (R) deals more damage based on your missing health, peaking below 33%.
