Abilities
League of DravenPC
Passive - League of Draven

Innate: When Draven catches a Spinning Axe, kills a non-champion, or destroys a turret, he gains a stack of Adoration.

When Draven kills an enemy champion, he consumes all of his Adoration stacks and gains 25 + (2 times stacks) bonus gold.

Draven loses 50% of his Adoration stacks upon death.

Spinning AxePC
Q - Spinning Axe
Cost: 45 mana
CD: 12 / 11 / 10 / 9 / 8
Cast Time: None

Active: Draven starts spinning his axe, empowering his next basic attack within 5.8 seconds to deal bonus physical damage.

Bonus Physical Damage: 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60 (+ 75 / 85 / 95 / 105 / 115% bonus AD)

Upon hitting the target, the axe then ricochets off of them to land after roughly 1.4 seconds, with the location being determined by Draven's current movement. If Draven catches the axe, he gains Spinning Axe's empowered attack again.

Draven can hold up to two Spinning Axes at once.

Blood RushPC
W - Blood Rush
Cost: 40 / 35 / 30 / 25 / 20 Mana
CD: 12
Cast Time: None

Active: Draven enters an adrenaline rush, gaining bonus attack speed for 3 seconds as well as decaying bonus movement speed and ghosting for 1.5 seconds.

Bonus Attack Speed: 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40%
Bonus Movement Speed: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70%

Catching a Spinning Axe resets Blood Rush's cooldown.

Stand AsidePC
E - Stand Aside
Cost: 70 Mana
CD: 16 / 15 / 14 / 13 / 12
Cast Time: 0.25
Range: 1100

Active: Draven throws a fan of axes in a line in the target direction, dealing physical damage to enemies hit, airborne, though not through terrain, and slow them for 2 seconds.

Physical Damage: 75 / 110 / 145 / 180 / 215 (+ 50% bonus AD)
Slow: 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40%
Whirling DeathPC
R - Whirling Death
Cost: 100 mana
CD: 100 / 90 / 80
Cast Time: 0.5
Range: Global

Active: Draven hurls two massive axes in the target direction that briefly grant sight of their surroundings and deal physical damage to enemies hit. Enemy champions that are damaged to or while below a health threshold equal to the number of League of Draven stacks are execute.

Physical Damage: 200 / 300 / 400 (+ 110 / 130 / 150% bonus AD)
Total Physical Damage: 400 / 600 / 800 (+ 220 / 260 / 300% bonus AD)

Whirling Death can be recast after 1 second while the axes are traveling, and does so automatically after the axes hit an enemy champion or the edge of the map.

Recast: Draven forces the axes to reverse direction, slowly coming to a stop before homing back to him, dealing the same damage to enemies hit.

Whirling Death deals 95^(x-1) / 50% damage, resetting upon reversing direction.

Enemies can be hit only once per pass.

Draven Changes

Patch 26.13

buff

As the marksman meta has evolved around crit, on-hit, and caster builds, Draven has fallen behind. We're buffing his heavy-AD pattern instead of trying to redirect his itemization.

Stand Aside

  • Cooldown reduced to 16/15/14/13/12 seconds from 18/17/16/15/14.

Whirling Death

  • Damage modifier changed to 100 to 50% (based on enemies hit) from 100 to 40% (based on enemies hit).

Patch 26.3

buff

Draven's Q was initially bugged to deal less damage at the start of the season, which was micropatched within the first week. Players are also trying Essence Reaver over Bloodthirster, which currently performs worse. After accounting for all of these factors, Draven's still not doing as well as he was last year, so we're coming to prop him back up by reverting one of our preemptive pre-season nerfs.

Stats

  • Attack damage growth increased to 3.4 from 3.

Patch 26.1

nerf

Draven is very auto-attack focused and averages about two crit items per game, so he's also in need of some compensation. Considering he's gaining direct auto-attack DPS, we're trying to compensate him directly on the same axis.

Stats

  • Attack damage growth reduced to 3 from 3.6.

Blood Rush

  • Bonus attack speed reduced to 20/25/30/35/40% from 30/35/40/45/50%.

Patch 25.19

buff

Draven has a bit of room for buffs in regular play and is completely missing from pro. We're giving him a little power this patch to see if he can make it back into the spotlight.

Blood Rush

  • Bonus attack speed increased to 30/35/40/45/50% from 20/25/30/35/40%.

Whirling Death

  • Base damage increased to 200/300/400 from 175/275/375.

Patch 25.6

nerf

Passive bonus adoration stacks removed.

League of Draven

  • Removed: Whenever Draven kills a minion or destroys a ward or stealthed trap, he generates a Strike stack for 10 seconds, refreshing on subsequent kills and stacking up to 6 times. All Strike stacks are lost if he drops an Spinning Axe or a nearby minion dies without him killing it. The sixth stack consumes all stacks to grant him 2 Adoration stacks.
