How to Beat Draven as Kai'Sa (ADC)

While statistically Kai'Sa is slightly stronger than Draven as ADC, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Kai'Sa deals mixed damage - the opponent has fewer options for defense. Draven deals mainly physical damage (97.19%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Kai'Sa is higher farming statistics (ranked 1st among role champions) (versus 14th for Draven), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.0 versus 2.5) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Kai'Sa ADC versus Draven ADC matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Kai'Sa player to maintain constant pressure on Draven, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

    Kai'Sa tips:

    • Try to catch enemy carries alone to burst them with Icathian Rain.
    • Work with your teammates to set up your Ultimate and optimize damage with your passive.
    • Make sure to buy items that will evolve at least 1 or 2 of your spells.

    Playing Against Draven

    • Launch skillshots toward the landing position of Draven's Spinning Axes.
    • Disrupt Draven with the goal of making him drop his axes. If you do, his power drops dramatically.
