These patches track recommendation review, build validation and item lookup separately. Updating item data does not complete a build review.

Matchup notes
Track the cooldown and range of the ability that starts their safest trade. Do not treat this page as a statistical counter claim.
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.

Cooldown (s) / Cost / Listed range (units) Data Dragon 16.20.1
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.
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) 300Draven 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) 1000Draven 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) 1050Draven 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.
The exported range is not a verified gameplay distance. Check the current ability tooltip.
Cooldown (s) 100/90/80 · Cost 100Vex periodically becomes empowered, causing her next basic Ability to fear enemies and interrupt dashes. Whenever a nearby enemy dashes, Vex applies a mark that can be consumed for bonus damage that also reduces the cooldown of her empowered state.

Cooldown (s) 140/120/100 · Cost 100 · Listed range (units) 2000/2500/3000Adapt the plan
Judge the whole lane or map state, not only personal kills. Choose the situation closest to the current game.
Take efficient camps between plays so a lead does not disappear into repeated waiting.
Use lane priority before invading or starting an objective, and leave when nearby lanes cannot move.
Enter through controlled vision and keep a route out; a winning Jungler still loses a shutdown when isolated.
Track opposing camps and lane states instead of forcing the first visible target.
Trade sides of the map when contesting would require weaker lanes to move first.
Save important control for the enemy who threatens your carries or objective access.
Path through known territory and help lanes only when the opponent is genuinely vulnerable.
Cross-map rather than arriving late to a lost objective, then restore defensive vision with an ally.
Play around the strongest teammate and make the enemy commit into your control.
Pings, movement and objectives
Link each clear to the next informed decision. Pings should tell lanes where you are pathing and whether the team is contesting or trading an objective.
Pings create a shared plan; they do not replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
Decide which camps lead toward the objective and ping the nearby lanes before they spend the wave or recall timing.
Confirm which nearby lanes can move first. Do not convert an isolated objective marker into a forced fight.
Move with a teammate, sweep one entrance and keep Smite available before committing damage to the objective.
Call whether the team is finishing, fighting or leaving. Mixed decisions are more dangerous than either clear choice.
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.
