There probably are about 1,000,000 people buying each champ at release day and building random items in random normals/coops. I doubt anyone has the right to claim a build his invention.

First one to verify its viability at high elo, maybe.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Draven is arguably a better version of MF, but you're off your rocker if you think Varus and Draven are anything at all alike.

How is Draven boring? And although I haven't played Darius, he looks quite fun too.

Varus I can see how you would think he's boring but Draven boring.. seriously? Global ult, juggling mechanic, moves fast. Dude is the opposite of boring.



You can draw some paralels:
Fiora = Yi,
Darius = Garen,
Varus, Cait, MF, Draven are all the same.

I want something new, in the lines of Nidalee or Lee Sin. You can play these champs in many different ways and find yourself in some epic moments.
For example, in case of Draven, when you're in danger you just activate "move fast" mode and run away. But you could do it in more fun way with lee sin and nidalee. Juking in bushes with nidalee or using ward to jump accross the wall with lee sin.


I understand that Draven doesn't give you the same varied mobile play that Nida Lee do (huehue) but accusing him of being the "same" is mind boggling. He is by far the most micro intensive champion in the game. The last time Riot tried to make a difficult champ was Orianna and Ori has *nothing* on Draven. Even if you master catching axes you still have to master the extra positioning concerns that come with catching axes, unlike other ranged ADs, and as a result he can be shut down in ways other Ranged ADs can't.

When you complain about him being the "same" as MF I really just get the feeling that it's not because they're actually the "same" but because you're looking for a different kind of "newness" than what Draven provides. And you know what? That's fine, as long as you DO realize that your tastes aside Draven is a pretty hugely new kind of champ from Riot.

Played Mord vs Akali in ranked again.

Still struggling to figure out how some people say this favours Akali, if she wants to be aggressive she has to eat my full combo before she can get hers off, and once you hit 6 unless there is jungle interference it is impossible for her to 1v1 you.

DFG on Mord so good :D .

Sry, it's not usually like that, but that team was trying to throw at every possibly oppurtunity. It's just frustrating when you get pulled by a blitz as your team's primary tank and then all you're team's damage goes, "omagawd, gotta run away!"

I'm only human, solo queue can drag me down too .

The other day I was playing lee sin and we got in the phase when teamfights are about to happen. Each team runs around in the jungle to find a better position for teamfight. I blindly launch my Q and find Fiddle somewhere between them, I follow with jump. E and Ult-kick him right into my team, then W-jump back to my team. And its 4v5 now, with their main AP dead. That was awesome, and I never felt that great even when I did some epic quadras with other champs.

Not every champ can be lee sin. Darius and Draven are cool as hell. I haven't had so much fun with a champ as I've had with Darius since Jarman came out.

The best decision Riot ever made was telling their music person, "You know what, you don't have to shoehorn the League theme into everything. Have a blast." Every intro screen since then has been fantastic.

I stream on an i5 no problem. All of the difficulties I had in the past were due to the crappy modem my ISP provided.

I really should make a thread and start streaming my meteoric rise to (fall from?) greatness.

You should. If you're commentary is anything like your top tier posting I will make every effort to tune in when I can

I found the Lulu one was pretty good too, and it included the League theme. Granted, it was more about atmosphere and stuff to go with it for that one.

Today I finally got around to replacing the champ select music with the space jam theme. I think that's all that really needs to be said on the matter.

you should be able to stream.... I stream at 1080 without any issues with i5-2500k

i'd watch your power supply though, 500W seems to be cutting it really close.

Has anyone found some clever tricks or use of Draven's E yet? I've mostly only practiced in customs and rarely found a use for it other than generic disengage or slow for chase.

I haven't tried it, but since everyone thinks Blitz is anti-Draven, anyone else think he'd be a good laning partner for him on a coordinated team? Draven's E would open up a path for his grab (or any support's line skillshot.) Similarly, it could be used to help open a path for a jungler to come into a lane, if a bit obvious.
