Matchup notes
What changes when Yasuo is opposite you?
Test the early lane
Strong early trades can deny a scaling carry the quiet lane they want.
Early to midLook for lane pressure, first recalls and early objectives before scaling carries complete several items.
Use the route you prepared
Treat Vex as one part of the map state. Their Jungler, nearby waves and which teammates can move determine whether the same trade or rotation is safe.
Draven reminders
- If Draven doesn't move, Spinning Axe will fall near his present location. It will fall directly on him, or just to the right or left.
- If Draven does move after attacking, Spinning Axe will lead him in the direction of his movement. Use this to control where the Spinning Axe will go.
Against Yasuo
- Steel Tempest is very narrow. Dodge laterally if possible.
- When Yasuo lands two Steel Tempests in a row, his next will fire a tornado. Watch and listen for the associated sound to prepare to dodge.
- Yasuo is at his weakest just after he has launched a whirlwind. Engage at that point.

Draven
- PLeague of Draven
Draven gains his fans' Adoration when he catches a Spinning Axe or kills a minion, monster, or tower. Killing enemy champions grants Draven bonus gold based on how much Adoration he has.
- QSpinning Axe
Draven's next attack will deal bonus physical damage. This axe will ricochet off the target high up into the air. If Draven catches it, he automatically readies another Spinning Axe. Draven can have two Spinning Axes at once.
Cooldown (s) 12/11/10/9/8 · Cost 45 · Listed range (units) 300 - WBlood Rush
Draven gains increased Move Speed and Attack Speed. The Move Speed bonus decreases rapidly over its duration. Catching a Spinning Axe will refresh the cooldown of Blood Rush.
Cooldown (s) 12 · Cost 40/35/30/25/20 · Listed range (units) 1000 - EStand Aside
Draven throws his axes, dealing physical damage to targets hit and knocking them aside. Targets hit are slowed.
Cooldown (s) 16/15/14/13/12 · Cost 70 · Listed range (units) 1050 - RWhirling Death
Draven hurls two massive axes to deal physical damage to each unit struck. Whirling Death slowly reverses direction and returns to Draven after striking an enemy champion. Draven may also activate this ability while the axes are in flight to cause it to return early. Deals less damage for each unit hit and resets when the axes reverse direction. Executes enemies who have less health than Draven's number of Adoration stacks.

Adapt the plan
What to do when the game changes
Judge the whole lane or map state, not only personal kills. Choose the situation closest to the current game.
Ahead plan
Protect the carry lead and finish the next objective
Lane
Pressure farm with your Support while keeping the wave and river warded; two opponents can still punish an isolated carry.
Map play
Move after the wave is secured and attack the objective from a position your team can defend.
Fights
Deal damage to the closest safe target and preserve the shutdown. The lead matters only while you remain alive.
Even plan
Prioritise farm, spacing and coordination with Support
Lane
Match the opposing carry's income and trade when both lane partners can participate.
Map play
Finish the wave before rotating unless the fight is immediate and clearly reachable.
Fights
Stand behind allied control and build damage on reachable targets before stepping toward the back line.
Behind plan
Keep collecting safe gold and shorten dangerous exposure
Lane
Farm near tower or with nearby allies. Give up isolated minions instead of offering another kill.
Map play
Avoid being first into river and trade an unsafe objective for income when the team cannot contest.
Fights
Wait for enemy cooldowns and attack whoever enters your safe range; survival creates more damage than a desperate flank.
Pings, movement and objectives
Draven Bot map plan
Protect income and coordinate with Support. Your movement should follow the wave, while your pings make target choice and danger clear before the fight begins.
Carry the lead into the next safe fight
- Ping
- Use Target on the reachable opponent, Danger when Support or Jungle is too far away, and On My Way after the wave is secured.
- Farm or rotate
- Finish the wave, recall on the item timing and rotate with protection. Do not cross river alone to save a few seconds.
- Objective
- Attack from the safe side of the objective and keep damaging the nearest reachable threat. Preserving the shutdown matters more than chasing.
Build the item timing and move together
- Ping
- Use Target to align with Support, Enemy Missing when either Bot opponent leaves and Danger if an engage begins outside your safe range.
- Farm or rotate
- Rotate after the wave or when the objective fight is immediate and reachable. Communicate if staying for the wave is the safer call.
- Objective
- Enter behind vision and allied control. Keep a route away from the enemy engage before starting sustained damage.
Shorten exposure and recover guaranteed gold
- Ping
- Use Retreat before Support or Jungle forces a fight you cannot damage, and Enemy Missing as soon as the winning Bot lane leaves.
- Farm or rotate
- Avoid being first into river. Move with Support after the safe wave, or trade an unsafe objective for protected farm.
- Objective
- Stand beside peel and attack whoever enters safe range. Do not cross enemy control to reach the opposing carry.
Objective setup
Four calls, in order
Pings create a shared plan; they do not replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
- 1Secure the wave
Finish safe farm and communicate the recall or move before the objective setup begins.
- 2Enter protected
Walk with Support or another ally and choose the side where enemy engage cannot reach you first.
- 3Set attack space
Keep an exit route and identify the nearest target you can damage without crossing enemy control.
- 4Stay alive
Continue useful damage without chasing away from the objective or donating a shutdown.
Later objectives: Repeat the same process around later major objectives: handle nearby income, communicate the route, enter through vision and agree on the fight before committing.
