Draven's Contest History

Who is Draven?
Draven is the axe-juggling glorious executioner from League of Legends. He's a huge attention seeker who's claim to fame comes from performing bizarre executions in prisons and arenas. As his popularity rose, so did his already inflated ego, about as large as his mustache. He has a brother named Darius.

Draven rose to fame within GameFAQs and Board 8 (or infamy, might you desire) after the League of Legends subreddit (Reddit's 'boards') began to rally him to victory. Before the push, he was being beaten by Chie Satonaka of ALL people. However, Reddit caught wind and began to push Draven, skyrocketing him past her and Jak, and catching the victory.

Draven debuted in the Character Battle as a 3 Seed character. Although his teammate Teemo fell early on, nobody at Board 8 or GameFAQs could have prepared themselves for what was about to happen.

As previously mentioned Draven appeared as nothing more but fodder before being rallied by Reddit and beating out his Round 1 match with ease. However, it wasn't until Round 2 that people learned just how powerful Draven - and dedicated rallies can be. Just like his knack for doing over the top executions, Draven absolutely overkilled Mega Man X and Ryu with 56k votes in just 12 hours... during the night. This is widely coined "Ultimate Draven", and many people say that Draven would have never even blinked against Link should this form appeared next match. Instead, he nearly gave Link the victory.

The next match, perhaps the most iconic in recent GameFAQs history, turned out the exact opposite of what people expected. Link actually put up a fight! And he almost beat the monster! However, a downtime around noon EST (9AM Pacific) shattered Link's momentum (he came ahead of Draven as USA morning hours rolled in), remaining a controversial incident to this day. Many believe it was a DDoS attack from Reddit, however Sailor Bacon has denied this. Nevertheless Draven caught up fast and began maintaining the lead. Link's supporters became increasingly desperate - A popular Skyward Sword Facebook page with 200k subscribers began rallying for Link. A wrestler even tweeted in favor of Link! However, even after all of this, it was not enough to stop the Glorious Executer, Link falling short of ~700 votes. And Shepard.... it's best not to say.

Draven went on to his next match, but nearly fell short thanks to a user claiming to be GameFAQs staff began telling subreddits to shut GameFAQs rallies down, with Mewtwo dragging Draven all the way down to 30%. /r/LoL mods however figured it out and reallowed rallies, and Draven began making the most insane cuts since his battle with Ryu and X, cutting whole percents by the minute with insane vote gains (~600-800). The minute that happened, the match was over.
