A fair and objective analysis of Draven using intensive statistical measures in a fair assessment

Let’s start with Draven’s passive

“League of Draven: Draven kills two creeps and thereafter gets full build after a single kill at any point in the game. Fair champion.”

As we can see, clearly this passive may be slightly overturned. Our advanced statistical metrics found Draven to be in the 99th percentile of bullshit.

Moving on..

Draven’s Q: Spinning Axes:

“Draven presses Q, activating spinning axes, giving Draven’s next auto attack something stupid about catching axes but it doesn’t really matter; fed or not, activating this ability transforms Draven from a standard ADC to a ranged assassin.”

After conducting RM ANOVAs to test the various IVs that Draven’s Q’s produce (Draven with no items; Draven with 1 item; Draven with 2 items, etc.), we obtained an F value of “this champion is significant bullshit.”

Draven’s W: Blood Rush:

“Draven activated Blood Rush and gains a free ghost on steroids, refreshing every time he catches a spinning axe - lets be honest, this skill isn’t necessary because every time Draven presses Q, he practically assssinates something and doesn’t need to catch his axe. This is only useful in team fights, which you’ll never get to have because Draven is too busy one-shoting your base.”

Indeed, Blood Rush has some complicated aspects but a simple t-test revealed that Draven’s W has a p value of “this is bullshit,” greatly exceeding the critical value of “this is fair,” thus a significant value of bullshit.

Draven’s E: Stand Aside

“Thinking about diving League of Draven (har har not an overused joke run deeper into the ground than the earths core itself)? Sorry, you can’t. Draven presses E on you, and if it doesn’t one shot you, it knocks you off of Summoner’s Rift and turns your computer off. Nice try.”

This ability certainly presents many statistical confounds, thus we elected to ignore any stasticial approach and simply concluded that the lack of intuitive data obtained regarding this ability is irrelevant due to it being a case of clear cut bullshit.

Draven’s R: Whirling Death

“Imagine Karthus’s ult snd Jinx’s ult having a baby. Except this baby one shots you globally and can return to one shot anyone it missed. Ha ha! League of Draven! Ha ha!”

Given that Draven’s R has intrinsic roots in curving, we conducted a correlation test and found that Draven’s R perfectly correlates with bullshit, with a r value of 1.0 grade A bullshit.

Conclusion

Draven is a champion designed by Marc Merrill, who no doubt finds everything about Draven fascinating and a vessel to live through vicariously because he had to boost himself and Draven was the perfect champion to do that with. “I was just abusing freelo” proclaimed Merrill, but in reality, Mr. Merrill created this monster. Any cringe-worthy “League of Draven” or general Draven joke should hereby be seen as clear and indisputable evidence of something that isn’t funny now and hasn’t been funny for years. Además, the concept of Draven as a champion is clearly lacking in the realms of balanced validity and should thereby be deleted, additionally erasing the elo gained by any of his users.

We thank you for your time.

You know.

I would've upvoted this.

If it was posted in "Memes & Games".

But it wasn't.

Draven has been weaker in the last two seasons compared to other ADCs, but a big reason currently is because of the marksmen item changes. I do agree he used to be this broken, but now he is broken after getting a couple kills, like most ADCs. But he still is average compared to other marksmen, Kaisa and Xayah for example.

You should check the Q-Q plot because these results definitely seem to not fit normal values.
