Draven Top Runes:

Primary (Precision):

Lethal Tempo: Boosts your attack speed after damaging an enemy champion, allowing Draven to get more auto-attacks off, especially when juggling Spinning Axes.

Triumph: Grants additional healing and bonus gold on takedowns, which synergizes well with Draven's snowballing nature.

Legend: Alacrity: Provides bonus attack speed, enhancing Draven's auto-attack-centric playstyle.

Last Stand: Increases damage dealt to champions while you're at lower health, which can be crucial for turning around close fights.

Secondary (Domination):

‍Taste of Blood: Grants healing when you damage an enemy champion, providing some sustain in lane.

Treasure Hunter: While the exact benefits are not specified in the data, it likely provides some form of scaling benefit or resource collection.

Stat Shards:

+10% Attack Speed

+9 Adaptive (5.4 AD or 9 AP)

+6 Armor

Draven Top - Summoner Spells:

Flash: Essential for positioning, escaping, or securing kills.‍

Heal: Provides a burst of health and movement speed. Useful for both aggressive plays and escaping danger. However, consider switching to:

Exhaust against high AD/AP damage threats.

Cleanse against high CC matchups (e.g., Veigar, Morgana, Amumu).

Draven Top - General Playstyle:

Laning Phase:

Focus on catching your Spinning Axes to maintain high damage output. Use your W to reposition and chase down enemies. Your E can be used to disrupt enemy engages or to set up ganks.

Mid Game:

Look to push your advantage by securing objectives and participating in skirmishes. Your damage output is significant, so prioritize catching axes and positioning safely.

Late Game:

In teamfights, stay in the backline and deal damage. Use your E to peel for yourself and your R as a long-range snipe or to initiate fights.

Draven - Farming:

Prioritize catching Spinning Axes for bonus damage on minions.

Use W for quick repositioning to secure last hits.

Team Fights as Draven:

Position safely and focus on catching your Spinning Axes.

Use E to disrupt enemy frontliners or assassins trying to dive you.

Use R either as an initiation tool or to finish off low-health enemies.

Dragon and Baron fights as Draven Top:

Dragons/Barons: Provide consistent damage with your auto-attacks and Spinning Axes. Stay aware of enemy threats and position safely.

Draven - Matchups:

Bad Matchup: Caitlyn is a significant threat due to her range and traps. Consider taking Cleanse and possibly the Conqueror rune against her.

Good Synergy: Nautilus is an excellent support for Draven due to his engage potential. Consider taking Hail Of Blades when paired with him.
