Draven's DPS

Draven's damage per second is crazy. I just played a game where I went 19/3, got 5 kills in the first 6 minutes... I did some calculations to figure out what his dps is at level 18 with crits, assuming all his axes are spinning and his w is up. According to this build: His dps is 3,382. Smh If you don't trust this, for any dark reasons, here is the math:

110 ad w/ 18 390 ad w/ 18 & ad elements of items 721.5 ad w/ 18, ad elements of items & q on 1352.8 ad w/ 18, ad elements of items, q on, & crit

0.991 as w/ 18 2.1 as w/ 18 & as elements items 2.94 as w/ 18, as elements items & w on 2.5 as w/ 18, as elements of items, w on, & lol as cap (2.5)

1352.8 ad * 2.5 = 3,382.

So the gist of it is this: Rito, please please please nerf Draven Actually don't being 19/3 is really fun

Btw, if I got any math wrong (which I probably did) please correct me

Completely agreed. When you hit that hard, you nearly full heal with every attack..... so with peels he can't die. They only balance this game for FULL PREMADE teams.... so all of us who solo queue should just go ahead and quit.

Bad math, impossible build. 2/10

the thing about him is if he gets no kills during laning he will most likely lose the game as in he falls off becuase his passive.

Draaaaaaaaaven requires a lot of positioning, and a lot of risk comes with that. The enemy team sees where your axe is going to land, and can respond approriately. A lot of his damage stems from his Q's yes, but outside of that juggling, he is just regular auto attacks with a knockback and a global ult. In addition, people shoud know what not to do against a Draaaaaaaaaaven.

For example, unless your advantage is really really good and he will die, never engage a Draaaaaaaaaven of he as 2 spinning axes, and especially not when his Q is off cooldown because he can start juggling 3 axes or 4 if he is really good. Draaaaaaaaaven's Q's go away if you wait and he can't auto attack something. That's when you fight him.

In addition to that, never fight a Draaaaaaaaaaven at level 2 unless you are supremely confident in your ability to outtrade or kill him. If you wait out his early game and he can't cash in on his passive, his snowball factor is negated entirely, and then apply the "wait for his Q's to be down" tip to kill him. His passive is also worthless late game, epecially if you die. Once your full build, extra gold means nothing, whereas a second weaker auto (Lucian), free mr and armor (Graves), or better movespeed when kiting (Sivir) are a lot more useful at all stages of the game.

Also, he is very immobile, minus one 1.5 second movespeed buff that decays. With that in mind, he is very easy to lockdown with hard cc, i.e. Maokai W, Morgana binding, Leona everything, Nautilus Q, E, R. Champions like Lucian and Graves can dash, Vayne has an invis tumble, Tristana has a jump, Kalista has mini jumps with autos, etc. Draaaaaaaaven has a movespeed buff. That's it.

Just my two cents. Good luck as the best champ ever! :D #WelcometotheLeagueofDraaaaaaaaaaaven

Dravens DPS is high because of skill he requires to play properly. He is hardest ADC to play properly and his dps is reward for that.

Nothing strange here, just typical 6 7 slotted ADC damage. Also, his bonus damage from Q does not crit
