Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior trading with Q poke and shield/speed boost enabling Draven's aggression.
- Post-6 you maintain advantage but must respect Lux's increased burst potential with her ultimate.
Synergy & Trading
- Use empowered Q for poke when enemies are farming, then shield Draven when he trades aggressively.
- Your best trades involve landing Q on both enemies while shielding Draven's retaliation damage.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam sparingly as Draven needs your shield and speed boost to maintain lane dominance.
- Only roam when the wave is in a good spot and Draven can safely farm or recall.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste empowered abilities on minion waves as you need them for trades and all-ins.
- Using R on waveclear leaves you vulnerable during Draven's aggressive trading windows.
