Lethality runes not working on Draven, but working on Burst AD like Yasuo

level 25, packing 8.5 Lethality early game, use to do 200-310 AD dmg on adcs at level 6, now I only do 117-190 dmg, with and new mastery system, bc i no longer have double edge sword, instead I have the first attack 10+lvl scale, and armor pen gone, draven has become almost unplayable.

I am a Mastery Level 7 Draven Main btw, so I 'm experience a significant damage reduction system update, while burst and AP burst have remained unchanged by the patch update.

Correct me if I am mistaken, but wasn't the change of armour pen supposed to mean lower damage early game and increased damage late game as it scales off target level?

yes but it needs to be hotfixed, only works for some

How so? The character archetype can't create a bug in itself.

lets say draven does 100 basic attack dmg with armor pen 10 90 dmg with no armor pen 80 dmg with leth 110 dmg with longsword/armo pen 105 dmg longsword/no armor pen

level 5 times, you get the results

How does the archetype of the character change anything?

no, not increased damage late game. Lethality does less damage early game and same damage late game in comparison to armor pen.

Wasn't this the whole point, though?

You know, to prevent ADCs and basically everyone else from building it for an early game advantage?

I'm a support main and I have seen several Dravens lately that play well but simply do no damage. He used to be someone I saw and thought "heh we gon' fuck'm". Now its just like, "oh cool, theyre going to do more than us at every point in the game...". Dude needs some love IMO

HIs Mechanics are so fun dude, if you catch axes (before patch 6.21) he use to 2 shot late adcs, now its (after patch 6.22) if you time your'e qss right, you can flash from ashe...

I haven't seen him do very well in a long time now... :/ Ever since the ADC update, most ADCs can duel him or out harass him no problem.

Post about an adc main complaining about how assassin items aren't good on adcs.

Moving on to something that matters. Hows the weather today?

I played a game on him the other day and was doing very little damage. At first I thought it was cause I was jungle and dropping axes but after getting 4 items and keeping my axes going nicely I still didn't seem to do any damage. It also cost me cashing in on nearly 400 stacks :(
