Draven isn't a problem, hasn't been a problem since death's dance and zeal changes
he doesn't buy bork anymore so he isn't affected by price up
death dance needs a nerf that's the only thing that's making him strong
Dasdi964 votesI would say he also needs a nerf. His laning phase is way too oppressive early as he does almost twice the damage of other adc's.
King of Mongoose2 voteshe's supposed to be a lane bully
Nahui5 votesSo where's his drawback? He's also one of the highest scaling ADCs. So if he's a lane bully and a scaler, where is he weak?

feast or famine useless if behind

It takes quite a bit for him to get famine'd, though. Even if a kill behind, he can still usually outduel the other ADC.
BakedLotion2 votesfeast or famine useless if behind
How exactly is he useless if behind? He has a good amount of utility, a global ult, a passive that sets him off if he gets a single kill WHILE BEHIND...
Sure I can agree that he suffers more than other adcs if behind, but he's nowhere near useless
Nahui1 votesThat's not a balancing point, that's a design flaw. Riot aims their reworks and balance changes to prevent this sort of design. This is not justification for removing weak points in terms of timing spikes. His power spike hits when he levels Q level 1 and continues growing, spiking every kill he gets that turns in stacks.
He can be very bad behind, but being behind is much farther than simply dying a couple of times. Even on equal gold a draven will outduel about any ADC, he just has problems surviving due to the necessity to go very aggro and go in during team fights since he will be targeted as such without the extra gold. With the extra gold, he buys the necessary attack speed and lifesteal to be an effective drain tank, especially now with death's dance.

You don't even need to catch the axes anymore ever since the death dance plus shiv became a thing. You're guaranteed to 2-3 shot any squishy who comes anywhere near you
Oleandervine1 votesDraven has always been sleeper strong though. He is damn near unstoppable with the slightest lead. He's simply not meta because of the utility and mobility other champs have, but he probably does need something to level him out.

King of Mongoose1 votesstop cait main
FaytalityHD1 votesDraven is easily the hardest to play adc so its only reasonable for him to be among the strongest. He requires a great deal of concentration deterring even many ad mains who are lacking in mechanics from playing him regularly so those who can play him should be appropriately rewarded. Hes been pretty lackluster for a long time too and op is right in saying that the items are to blame in the case of draven. ( 
are broken because of design)
