Confidence highUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

Ashe wins extended trades by using slows and poke to punish Draven's axe catch zones.
Control wave near your side to force Draven to last-hit inside your auto range and avoid his aggressive short trades.

Trading pattern

Punish Draven's last-hit attempts on melee or cannon minions with autos slowed by your passive only if enemy support can't punish.
Use (W) to poke Draven when he moves to catch axes, forcing him to choose between damage or safe CS.
Avoid trading when (E) is available to interrupt your (Q) or disengage your slow chain.

Danger windows

Draven's danger peaks when he has active (Q) axes and enemy support cannot punish his catch paths.
Respect (E) cooldown as it interrupts your (Q) and disengages your slows.
Avoid stepping into brush or river zones where enemy support can immediately follow your slow trades.

Early game

Use the first three waves to keep the wave just outside your tower and punish Draven stepping for caster minions.
Avoid stepping forward when (Q) axes are active and support controls brush.
Reach level 2 safely and use (W) to poke when Draven commits to last hits without support threat.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for long-range pick and forces Draven to respect your engage angles.
First completed marksman item strengthens your sustained slows and DPS, enabling safer extended trades.
Two-item utility DPS spikes improve your kite and poke, increasing lane control against Draven's burst potential.

Win conditions

Convert poke and slows into CS leads by forcing Draven to last-hit under pressure and denying his axe catches.
Use (R) picks to initiate dragon setups or force Draven recalls before he completes key items.
Maintain lane control to safely scale into teamfights where your utility and pick potential outvalue Draven's early aggression.
