Draven needs to be nerfed

This champion is complete and utter cancer to face in lane.

People complain about ADCs being weak, but how do you plan on adressing the exception that is Draven? No ADC can trade with him, any ADC as much as looking at him will die from 2-3 axe autos, you try to gank he ends up getting a triple. His power needs a shift. Being good early is one thing, but with Draven in the game, you make sure the enemy ADC never goes online. You basically AFK behind tower when this tumor is present.

He needs to be fixed so he stops oppressing all other ADCs.

He beats all adc's and then some. He scales too fast and even if he doesn't get fed or anything. He still has insane damage.

to be honest i just never understood why champions who are strong in the earlygame are allowed to have such insane scalings, cause that by definition means they dont exactly have a punishable phase.

Why are we ignoring vayne, brand, and miss fortune bot lane? They can easily beat him. Yeah he needs a nerf, but nerf miss fortune to the ground first please!

I don't think Draven needs a Nerf. He needs a rework/reallocation of damage. It's all shoved into 1 ability, and his ability to farm successfully (which isn't hard).

All champions who have basically had 1 damage ability, and stat buffs on the other abilities have generally been reworked over time to spread the damage to other kit functions.

Draven's Adoration is arguably why Q is so successful, but I don't have the answers. Item leads rule on Draven or any champion. Basically what we're complaining about is that his kit endorses recoveries for bad play, and snowballs for good play, while other champions generally have to keep performing well even after they snowball.

I don't think Draven needs a Nerf at all. Hes meant to be a damage dealer and his kit leaves him with no escape like other adcs. He has bloodrush and that barely gives him any movespeed and his stand aside which usually wont stop for example a 4 man on him. If he wastes it hes dead end of story if he has no sums or peel. Draven does a lot of damage but there are adcs like vayne who do a ridiculous amount with her true dmg or even ezreals w q chunks hard even if he has lifesteal. Draven doesnt need a nerf.
