Who Wins
- Draven-Nautilus wins pre-6 due to Nautilus's hook threat forcing you into defensive positioning, while Draven's Q axes give him superior sustained damage in extended trades.
- Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R execute damage, but Nautilus R makes all-ins very dangerous for your team.
Synergy & Trading
- Look for Q bindings when Draven is catching axes in predictable positions, then follow with E-auto-W shield for Varus.
- Your best trades come from max range E poke when enemies are focused on CSing, avoiding Nautilus hook range entirely.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push waves hard with E to create roam timings and prevent Draven from freely stacking axes on minions.
- Maintain vision control around river bushes since getting hooked while pushing is instant death.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never walk up to auto-attack poke against Nautilus hook range - your long cooldowns mean getting caught equals death.
- Don't waste Q on minions when enemies are in aggressive positions, as it's your only escape tool.
