Is Draven like the shittiest adc by far?

I mean yea, you can get fed and everything, but you can't fucking carry no matter what. I've gotten really fucking fed many times, and i've lost more games than i've won. Why is this? Maybe Draven is just a shitty champion? When did he become such a shitty champion that can't carry even when he's really really fed????

Maybe you aren't focusing the right champion or are getting caught out of position? It could just be the way you're playing it.

Why is this?

Have you considered you play a poor Draven?

I mean, in all seriousness. Does his playstyle match yours? Do you "feel good" playing him? Do you feel like you could come back from a bad beginning because you can play him?

I mean all you're saying in this post is "omg I can't win with Draven, therefore, Draven must be bad," but it is entirely possible that.. you can't win with Draven.

It's nothing to be ashamed of, I can't win with Rumble - like, ever. I have no idea how to play that thing, and whenever I go up against him I get owned no matter what the match up is. Maybe he just isn't your Champion.

If you're asking, "Is Draven a bad ADC," then the answer is generally: no. His passive allows him to snowball harder and faster than perhaps any other ADC if he gets a bunch of Adoration stacks and gets some early kills. Few things are scarier than Draven with First Blood. But Draven has his share of drawbacks; relies heavily on positioning, cycling his Axes, using his E-reset to move in and out quickly. He's shorter range than some other ADCs but his damage output is insane.

As a fellow Draven I can tell you that solo q can be tough even when you slayed your laning phase and have some kills. Make sure to let your team know that they should focus on peeling for you. Too many assume that you work like a good amount of other adc's and can easily escape out of a nasty situation like this champ Tristana . Our e offers some relief and w is ok, but it can be tricky to utilize all these things while keeping our axes up (these axes keep our damage relevant) all while the team allows the JarvanIV XinZhao Diana Renekton Tryndamere or whoever to bypass the front line.

I was recommended to start getting into some adc's that aren't as team reliant and have more self peel while in solo q. As much as I hate it, I'm going to start doing so. Best of luck. Hope this advice helped.

Oh I checked your match history. You were building blood thirster and last whisper and triforce before building a phantom dancer. That's your problem. I know Draven's q scales from ad but that attack speed and crit matters so much. I build infinity edge and then phantom dancer which is when the one shotting commences. After that i build last whisper or BT depending on how tanky the enemy is.
