Draven counter play and strategies. Keeping the trades short is the best way to counter Draven in the long run (before his first item). As long as you auto-attack and trade with him when he either has dropped an ax or is locked in auto-attack animation you should win lane easy.

Things To Consider When Playing Against Draven
- If Draven attempts to catch one of his axes, take advantage of the opportunity to poke him with a skill shot (Varus, Caitlyn) or CC from support (Thresh, Blitz, Leona).
- To reduce his damage output, do not allow him to catch his axes.
- If you can’t stop him from catching axes, be sure to play safe as his high damage output can melt most bot lane champs.
- The best time to engage is when he misses an ax. His damage output is significantly reduced.
