In Noxus, warriors called "reckoners" fight each other in arenas where blood is spilled and strength is tested, but Draven is the most famous of all time. He used to be a soldier, and he found that the crowds liked his dramatic flair and the sprays of blood that came from each of his spinning axes.
Draven is addicted to seeing how perfect he is, so he has sworn to beat whoever he has to in order to make sure that his name will always be chanted all over the empire.
This is a full guide on how to best use Draven in TFT to make sure you cut your enemies into half with his axes.
Not Draven; Draaaaven.
Draven often fought older street youngsters and shadowy underworld guys as an orphan in Basilich. Draven was overconfident, but his bigger brother Darius always ended his bouts, saving him from childhood.
After Draven attempted to kill Cyrus, Basilich fell to Noxus' warhosts. Cyrus accepted them into the Noxian army due of their bravery.
Darius enjoyed fighting with Cyrus' warhost, but Draven got bored. His martial skills were unquestionable, but soldiering felt like too much work for too little reward and not enough personal pride.
Darius became warlord, and Draven followed. If he believed it would be easy or give him more recognition, he was wrong.
Draven allegedly left Darius' leadership. He was allegedly fired. As a champion and duelist, he was recruited by several warbands during the conquest of Ionia until landing a decent contract in the Reckoning pits.
The gladiatorial Reckoners had punished criminals and settled aristocratic house disputes in Noxus for ages, and Draven wanted the wealth, admiration, and fame he believed he earned. With long, prolonged battles on multiple fronts, the spectacle was losing its allure for the average citizen. Draven slumped and spent more time in the capital's seedier drinking halls and gambling dens as the masses lost interest.
Former general Jericho Swain discovered him broke and washed up.
Swain needed Draven to restore Noxus' grandeur. Swain may have recruited him to get his brother Darius' backing afterward. Draven helped Swain overthrow Boram Darkwill, the Grand General.
Draven grinned for the first time in months as the Noxian people cheered.
Duty called. After this unusual revolution, several aristocratic elite denied Swain's ascension and were executed in the arena.
One prisoner fled before his death. As usual, Draven rushed from the balcony and threw two axes at the fleeing guy, killing him instantly. The crowd cheered after a startled hush. Draven grabbed his axes and spun them in the air, enjoying his new admirers' acclaim.
Draven became the Glorious Executioner, turning regular fights into great spectacles that drew more spectators.
Soon, a small promoter, tired of housing, feeding, and training Reckoners only to see them die in front of shrinking audiences, approached Draven with a proposal. What if Draven's theatrics and pit fight drama were combined?
Each Reckoner has a meticulously crafted narrative, fighting technique, and colourful personality. The conflicts were bloody—this was Noxus—but seldom fatal. Draven was the most famous Reckoner, but his rivalries, trash-talking, and intrigue were legendary across the empire.
He partied with Swain's new Noxus's elite for a while. He reunited with Darius and occasionally commanded the warhosts, beating enemy champions and generals in single battle.
Draven is restless again. He has everything he could want, yet he dreams of being famous worldwide.
