Abilities
League of Draven
PCSpinning Axe
PCActive: Draven starts spinning his axe, empowering his next basic attack within 5.8 seconds to deal bonus physical damage.
Upon hitting the target, the axe then ricochets off of them to land after 2 seconds, with the location being determined by Draven's current movement. If Draven catches the axe, he gains Spinning Axe's empowered attack again.
Draven can hold up to two Spinning Axes at once.
Blood Rush
PCActive: Draven enters an adrenaline rush, gaining bonus attack speed for 3 seconds as well as decaying bonus movement speed and ghosting for 1.5 seconds.
Catching a Spinning Axe resets Blood Rush's cooldown.
Stand Aside
PCActive: Draven throws a fan of axes in a line in the target direction, dealing physical damage to enemies hit, airborne, though not through terrain, and slow them for 2 seconds.
Whirling Death
PCActive: Draven hurls two massive axes in the target direction that briefly grant sight of their surroundings and deal physical damage to enemies hit. Enemy champions that are damaged to or while below a health threshold equal to the number of League of Draven stacks are execute.
Whirling Death can be recast after 1 second while the axes are traveling, and does so automatically after the axes hit an enemy champion or the edge of the map.
Recast: Draven forces the axes to reverse direction, slowly coming to a stop before homing back to him, dealing the same damage to enemies hit.
