...Almost all of them assuming proper play?

Ashe Outranges him, post 6 can ult and (if her Q stacks were up) kill him before he can fight back. Caitlyn Outranges him, has better poke and bullying. Can easily land things if he tries to catch axes and bully him off. Ezreal Outranges him, has weaker straight up damage but can kite and Q from range until Draven is too low to fight. Really depends on how good the Ezreal is at landing skillshots. Graves Has higher bust than Draven but weaker sustained. Probably depends more on who catches the other out, as both have respectable burst. Jinx Outranges, out pokes, and has a better execute. Should be easy for her to just kite with rockets and switch to minigun if he ever closes. Kalista Lane depends entirely on how good Kalista's support is as she can't dodge autoattacks with her jumps. Assuming equal skill and builds Draven should win this. KogMaw Higher range. If caught out going to die before making use of it, but at range or on his own terms can destroy Draven before he can fight back. Lucian If he lands all his shit should be able to win, but heavily reliant on who crits when and landing skills. Higher chance of Draven winning. MissFortune Better bullying than Draven, weaker straight up dueling. If she can weaken him beforehand with good Q's or get multiple W stacks she should win, but otherwise will die. Quinn In a 1v1 she will win. Blind, massive speed boost, and great sustained + decent burst. Sivir If she can poke she can win. She has the tools to escape if she gets caught out, but without some poke she likely can't 1v1. Teemo This isn't an adc. Thresh Neither is this. Tristana Same as most of the others. Outranges, but also has a massive range escape/engage button and a good damage knockback. Can escape if it goes sour and outrange while nuking if it doesn't. Twitch With ult up and a well used Q ambush can win. Otherwise dead. Varus Outranges, outpokes. Can maybe escape with R if needed, but can poke Draven down from out of his range. Vayne She's literally a 1v1ing adc. If she has ultimate and BotRK she can 100% murder Draven.

That's his strength though, he's supposed to be one of the strongest dueling late game adcs, it's why his range is "meh" and his early game is even more "meh."

Shut him down early and he's one of the most useless adcs in the game, but if he gets fed he's one of the absolute strongest and seemingly broken adcs as well. It's that risk reward of playing him, Vayne SHOULD be the same, she used to be even, where her late game is stupid strong but her early game is shit. But somewhere at some point her early game became godlike with one item, so thankfully we still have champs like Draven who can shit on her all game and also outscale her.

He's kind of the only one atm, so until Riot gets off their asses and nerfs her, we will need Draven :P

Trist can easily kill Draven 1v1 if they both have 3 or 4 items. She Buster Shot's him away from catching his axe...then proceeds to destroy him. L2p

no one can duel a draven 1 v1 once he gets all his items. if he builds mostly straight up AD rather than an attack speed item, he can definitely two shot someone with just two axes and he won't need the attack speed.

Draven no doubt has the highest straight up pure auto burst in the game. His main weakness though is in team fights as you have to catch your axes but you also cant be telegraphed in your movements to get caught by CC. and this is why only the highest skill ADC mains play him regularly. and usually people who can play draven well are one trick ponies. because he is someone you have to committ EVERYTHING to . he is worth it. and I've seen vincent in china rack up 40+ kills in sub 20 minute games consistently in plat elo +.

but I also do not feel he is in any overpowered. he is the ultimate reward for hard work and good play/positioning.

If it's full build on Howling Abyss, any of the long range ADC's like Caitlyn KogMaw Varus Ezreal can easily wreck Draven.

On the other hand, if both of them just start next to each other then Draven should win in 2 autos.

If he doesnt have QSS Ashe can beat him. Quinn should be fine

Meep Man10/8/2015, 8:11:34 PM1 votes

Quinn If she can survive one basic attack and they are on equal ground, she can duel him. Ashe can if she lands a good arrow.

Honestly anyone can. Draven's starting damage is high than quite a few other adcs because his Q has such great scaling, but he is really reliant on getting a kill or two in lane and at the same time not dying. Draven is so reliant on snowballing, that if you keep him from doing so you are probably better off playing ad teemo which I have never seen work out.

Um well assummng he takes counter measures like qss and pink trinket no one really 1.5k crit nukes have no counterplay ;^)
