Edit: THIS WAS ALL DONE IN OLD LEGACY CLIENT!!!!

**Update: Axes Dropped for 1- 5 games not very often, some games it dropped none, this is frustrating because now it might seem like a rare bug, or it can in fact be corrupted coding not properly dispersing the buff duration Tested: Free-2-Play Draven, Default Skin Shyvanna W buff is extended when basic attacks apply but do not cause infinite duration. **

So it's actually not going to be a TL;DR

Bug: Draven Q disappears after 2 or more axes stay buffed(continious duration extended) Source: Only affects him in trade-offs with enemy champions, or enemy champions present in minion waves/monster jungles/baron/dragon camp Details: When Draven readies an Axe (activates Q) he gets his bonus ad(damage) from said source, the idea was to have an ability extended to continue --->enhanced damage output<-------

^ the ABOVE STATEMENT IS VERY VERY IMPORTENT TO UNDERSTAND^

Warning

The following statement below is all theory and not fully acknowledged by Riot Games to be said cause, viewer discretion and responses are advised...

Draven was never intended to have **INFINITE ** Qs( Extended Draven Axes) it was meant to only last an additional 5 cs (creeps) or 60 more seconds before it falls of(drops, vanishes, disappears) then you re-activate another one.

However in some game modes (AR, or custom 1v1) the axes** WOULD NEVER **disappear when caught, allowing the illusion of **INFINITE **Draven Q(axes extended)

This is simply a miscalculation on Riot's part and we apologize to the Draven fans and Mains out there.

What we will make sure to do is implement a tool tip in Draven Q the following

"Draven Q can only be extended a Maximum of 5 addidtional minion kills or 80 seconds before having to re-activate his empowered axe ability"

THIS is FACT---->

**also due to recent changes to his Q, the flat X damage now implemented means he gains benefit from Sorcery mastery (2% increase ability power) **

v these tooltips help diffuse some tension between Riot staff and players (similar to clarification of Illaoi Slam doing reduce damage past the first champion, but was not implemented in tooltip for a month or so)

So I hope this clarifies that Draven Q is not a bug, just a non mention clarity on axes will (or suppose) to fall off after an extended time.

hopefully it will be added to his champion in future updates.

its reduced damage past the first tentacle, not champion. and it took them SEVERAL months before it was changed because of myself and a couple others made a big deal about it and called it a bug.

Well I tried reproducing the bug in Practice Tool, according to your theory. None of the axes dissappeared. I could farm 10+ minions without dropping an axe or reactivating Q and never did I lose an axe. I also threw in some champion hits, and that didn't change anything.

Conclusion: It's not an undocumented feature. It's a rare bug.

I don't understand this "This is simply a miscalculation on Riot's part and we apologize to the Draven fans and Mains out there.

Why are you saying we? Was this said by riot or are you just making stuff up?
