The ax-throwing Noxian recently debuted in Wild Rift. He will be a new style for many players in Wild Rift and someone that people will be wondering, how to to build him? Here are two different build paths for the new ADC in Patch 1.1 for Wild Rift.
[Related: Wild Rift Darius Build]
Conventional
This build rushes Blood Thirsters first. As a core item for Draven’s beginning kit, the item allows him to keep himself healthy through the landing phase. With the help of his Spinning Axes, the scaling on life steal rush goes hand in hand with the bonus AD.
Ghostblade grants extra movement speed and lethality that pushes this build to its peak. Building Ghostblade prevents the need to rush boots so early on, giving movement speed and extra umph on his first ax thrown.
Abilities Upgrade Priority:
Upgrade Ultimate whenever possible.
1 > 3 > 2 > 1 > 4 > 1 > 1 > 2 > 4 > 2 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 3 > 3
Tear Draven
Tear Draven rushes Manamune. This item grants extra AD and mana with each skill usage, scaling wonderfully with Draven’s Blood Rush. This build functions excellently for Draven users that have trouble catching every ax, as the mana scaling gives much more leniency.

Upgrade Ultimate whenever possible.

Runes and Summoner Spells
For Keystone, Fleet Footwork helps Draven heal and run around the map. The second viable option is Conqueror, which is more of an aggressive pick. Pick Fleet for a sustain lane, and conqueror if going ham is the plan.
The rest of the runes are definitely dependent on matchups alongside play styles, but the ones shown here will work.
Unsurprisingly, Draven should take flash every time. The second summoner spell depends on whether the ally support is taking heal or not. If they are, Draven should take barrier. If not, heal is the best option.
Noteworthy Items
As mentioned previously, this item scales very well with Draven. For those who have trouble catching axes and using Draven’s skills 100% effectively, this item will help make up for the small mistakes. Even with Manamune’s nerfs, champions that can build the item definitely should, as the numbers and scaling work very well into the mid to late game.
Bloodthirster is one of Draven’s core items in League of Legends on PC. This tried and true build centering around Bloodthirster gives Draven the early damage healing and damage he needs to snowball into the game. But be warned, this item falls off if Draven is not getting kills.
An all or nothing playstyle, this item is for those who aim to crush the enemy laners with Draven.
Draven should always prioritize Gluttonous Greaves over other boots in Wild Rift. These give life steal, an essential stat for Draven. For fully built active items, Draven can build many different items.
If the enemy is crowd control heavy, QSS does wonders. For an enemy team with burst damage, Zhonyas may help. If the Draven player wants an extra barrier for survivability, Locket is the option for them.
In Conclusion
There are many ways to build a champion. These are the recommended build paths for Seraphine, but not the only build paths out there. Be sure to adapt to the situation, changing according to what the team needs and what the enemy team has.
