yh theres some kind of trick to project were the axes will fall, cant remember how qtpie mentioned it awhile back...
I would avoid Draven like the plague unless you're a very good ADC. It's not that hard to get the hang of catching your axes during the laning phase but it becomes a complete nightmare in teamfights unless you're positioning and kiting is on point.

Yeah i'm sure, we can play some time and i'll show you how it's done if you like, but all you have to do is right click in the direction you want it to go as soon as the axe leaves your hand, also don't forget his W resets every time you catch an axe so another good tool for kiting.
Do you need a certain amount of attack speed to do it? I've noticed his animation is super slow and I built flat AD and nothing else. Oops

Nah, you can do it at any attack speed %.
If you want to look into it further i'd suggest searching youtube for a guy called Lastshadow9, he has coached a few proffesional teams and was Diamond 1 in the Korean scene, also working along side some of the League organisations there, his youtube channel consists of him and a player going over a recording of a game he played and then they analyse it, if you look for one of the Draven players he will go into great detail about playing him effectvely, and how to alter the landing locations of the axes, i've watched it numerous times and it's helped me become a great Draven player, the way i described it is exactly how it works, but if you like draven then i would watch that video. Also if you search CJ Emperor from last year he was/is in the OGN scene, excellent draven player also DB Hosan from 2013, another top class Draven player!
(just realised how much i rambled on there, hopefully it helps)
EDIT: Take Attack speed Quints, AD Reds, scaling MR Blues and Scaling Armor Yellows.
Add me, summoner name is Proxeum

Well, I don't think I'll ever really learn Draven, I main top/jung with mostly melee champions, I only ever ADC to fill and when I do it's Graves or Quin, generally due to the fact supports roam so dueling other ADCs is super easy on those two and for late game as I splitpush if my teams feeding. I also take CDR blues, armor yellows, AD reds and AD quints, was thinking of attack speed (have 3 quints) but the ADCs I play are bursty casters, so I'm not sure whether they would take AS/LS over AD?
Happily add you though, learning Riven atm, lot of fun.
What are your preferred tank characters?
I've only really played volibear.
I know a bunch of you have said to play as other characters to kinda get an idea of enemies you might come across but i'm even more hopeless using them

Sion/Malphite/Maoki are all very easy to use and very good, legitimate super tanks.
Cheers dude will take a loook.
Nothing special to you guys in plat or gold but getting hang of things and really enjoying lol atm
Not too bad, 1/11 and 1/7 solo laners though...
Try smite, especially with Volibear top as he has no waveclear, Cinderhulk + Trialblazer is pretty amazing, lets you insta push if your opponent goes MIA or if you need to teleport around the map.

Ahh just assumed you mained ADC because of the interest in him
To be honest you can take whatever runes you like, i take AS/AD because its easier to last hit early on and scaling MR and Armor as it helps later in the game.
Gonna start playing ranked again to get diamond, currently Plat 4 75LP
I bought all three
trying them out tonight......maoki looks fun.
Maoki is the best of the three by a mile, pure tank and can burst down a carry in one combo, such a beast of a tree.

Ah, not at all, most of my interest came from the fact I mained Darius top for ages and it's his brother LOL and his raw damage is just like his bro's too, bloody ridiculous.
I think cooldown reduction is the strongest stat in the game, my ADCs always get lucidity, 15% runes and masteries with a Ghostblade, 40% CDR on a caster carry like Graves/Lucian/Quin is unmatched imo. Now if I didn't completely suck arse at the role, I could show everyone just how good it is
EDIT: Just want to add that you can combine 6 scaling CDR blues with 3 scaling MR blues for 9 MR @18 and 10% CDR @18

What's wrong with EUW now? Started playing normals again with a few friends and randoms, and the ransoms attitudes has just gotten worse, when someone dies it's my fault, when I'm not kiting with a amulet and he dies its my fault, when he dies when I pinged there was someone coming it's my fault.
I mean, I know euw was bad, but not this bad. And if it was 1 or 2 games like that then ok, I'll let it pass. But 8 games in a row? Really? I just refused to play normals now without a full party of 5. Getting to old for these trolls.

Best thing you can do is mute someone at the first sign of flame, most of the time I just mute everyone as soon as I get into the game.

There really is no proper teamwork in normals that you need to type about. Everything can be easily communicated with pings and just reacting/engaging at the same time by just being aware. Just mute everyone.
