This is Ashe's own plan; across 10,477 pooled games the lane is leaning Ashe.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ashe | You edge level 1 because Frost Shot slow disrupts his Spinning Axe catches. |
| Level 2 | Ashe | Level 2 Volley punishes his aggressive step-ups before he snowballs. |
| Level 3 | Ashe | At level 3 your slow keeps denying his axe economy and mobility. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 are a skill duel: his caught-axe damage vs your kiting slow. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is a coin-flip between Whirling Death executes and your Crystal Arrow pick. |
| First item | Ashe | With a first item your permaslow reasserts and stalls his axe snowball. |
| Two+ items | Ashe | Two items in, you scale better and slow-lock him off his axe positioning. |
Levels 1-2 you're favored because Frost Shot's slow makes it hard for Draven to move to his falling axes while also trading, so punish him whenever he over-focuses catching an axe near you. Every axe he lets drop is gold he does not get, so trade whenever the axe lands behind him rather than at his feet. Blood Rush refreshes when he catches one, so open on the catch he misses. Keep the wave short: an axe-juggling Draven who has to walk to the minion line is a Draven your support can hook.
