Kog and Graves also seem to be in pretty bad spots. Re: Draven, you really need to have laned against him to understand. It goes something like: "Ok, he's got a BF Sword now, I have to be careful and try to avoid OH MY GOD 1/3RD OF MY HEALTH, HOLY SHIT HE KILLED MY SUPPORT IN TWO HITS". Farming against him is not easy. I actually think Graves could (warning all theory) be pretty good in the current game, his passive would really help mitigate the free damage that the full tank builds rely on, he's just not very good in lane vs Lucian/Jinx/Varus/Draven, but he's probly fine vs. Sivir. | ||

As far as I knew nothing could cancel Arcane Shift since it was an instant blink, not a dash. it has a cast time, it cannot be done on reaction no, but if you have an ezreal scared as fuck, pop blood rush, throw stand aside and 50% of the time you'll have baited E with the blood rush sound effect. | ||

So no? He's an insane lane bully who nobody can beat unless he way overextends and fucks up stand aside? Cause that's what this thread is making it sound like. I'm mostly trying to play devil's advocate here, because I can understand how the current meta would make Draven really strong, but I'm curious as to what people think is a good counter to a Draven botlane. Do you just run tons of CC bot so you can lock him down when you get a gank? Edit: Thanks, post below helps. | ||

Or are there even/bad lane matchups for him? Caitlyn doesn't do that poorly. You need to carve out a bit of lead a level 1 before he has Blood Rush, and then if you can trade his Qs for your auto+Q+E you can keep him tamed. It can fall apart on you if you mess up though. Miss Fortune might be able to stand up to him with the right support. Draven has always been a huge lane bully, he's just really hard to play and kind of vulnerable to assassins, also not very good at tower pushing. | ||

Thanks. The bolded is part of why I wanted to ask the question, because at my level it really just comes down to the person's mechanics, game knowledge, and skill on particular champions as opposed to lane matchups. So I'm curious as to how he works in competitive play because it's hard to judge it at my level. Edit: Also because a bunch of my friends have started to play more 5s together and want me to play more adc. I'm used to solo-laning more than anything so any botlane knowledge I can absorb is good. | ||

Draven is the counter in lane to almost all of the aforementioned champions. He crushes Lucian, Jinx, Sivir, Tristana, and Varus, and this is why he is still a viable pick. If you are a perfect Draven player and never drop an axe, you will still be doing massive damage while being extremely slippery. Blood Rush is the ultimate tool against the OP bruisers right now, and will allow you to kite in otherwise impossible situations. | ||

To be fair, yolo queue vis are pretty stupid about ults and often drag themselves to their own death. But this is often on the ezreals of the world for draven I don't think that's quite possible unless there's some next level baits. | ||

To be fair, hosan was REALLY good at draven. Then again jimbownz was really good at ADC kennen so one guy doesn't really account for it. Stealths saw fit to ban it twice against storm and they beat frost with him but that might be more down to arrow who iirc is like a god of draven in Korea than the champion himself. | ||
